This introduction to the history of work in America illuminates the many important roles that men and women of all backgrounds have played in the formation of the United States. A Day in the Life of an American Worker: 200 Trades and Professions through History allows readers to imagine the daily lives of ordinary workers, from the beginnings of colonial America to the present. It presents the stories of millions of Americans—from the enslaved field hands in antebellum America to the astronauts of the modern "space age"—as they contributed to the formation of the modern and culturally diverse United States. Readers will learn about individual occupations and discover the untold histories of those women and men who too often have remained anonymous to historians but whose stories are just as important as those of leaders whose lives we study in our classrooms. This book provides specific details to enable comprehensive understanding of the benefits and downsides of each trade and profession discussed. Selected accompanying documents further bring history to life by offering vivid testimonies from people who actually worked in these occupations or interacted with those in that field.

Originally published in 1991. "A photojournalist is a mixture of a cool, detached professional and a sensitive, involved citizen. The taking of pictures is much more than F-stops and shutter speeds. The printing of pictures is much more than chemical temperatures and contrast grades. The publishing of pictures is much more than cropping and size decisions. A photojournalist must always be aware that the technical aspects of the photographic process are not the primary concerns." This book addresses ethics in photojournalism in depth, with sections on the philosophy in the discipline, on pictures of victims or disaster scenes, on privacy rights and on altering images. As important and interesting today as when it was first in print.

The Black man from birth until death has been saddled with systemic racism, discrimination, and police violence. These immoral acts are parallel to the genocide of the American Indians, the indigenous people of this land, or the deliberate and systematic genocide of the Jewish people by the Nazi in Germany. The meticulous application of these laws has resulted in disparities in all areas of the majority of the Black man's life. By any metrics applied, there are disparities in wealth creation, lifespan, infant and maternal mortality, healthcare, application of the criminal justice system, house ownership, quality of education, employment, and promotion among others. These disparities have been illuminated by the coronavirus which has exposed the decades of institutional racism. These systems have been designed and meticulously implemented to delegitimize, dehumanize, degrade, and destroy the Black man. This system was admired by the Nazi party of Germany for its ingenuity. As so aptly stated by William Du Bois, "There is in this world no such force as the force of a person determined to rise." 20
