Synopsis Kathy's Way by : Peter Freis MD

Kathy's Way is a brief telling of the way one person can affect many, very many people. My wife of three months less than fifty years was capable of accomplishing the extraordinary. She did so by finding the substance in the simple every day. Her quiet attention to the person, place, and event embraced and elevated those around her. Kathy's way of doing this was to know the person and let them shine. She did this by participating in their lives, dreams, and goals. What was important to another was important to her. Her story is worth knowing. We can learn from her, and we should learn from her as did I, a way of living that is a way of loving. Ordinary people can do extraordinary things.

Synopsis Walking in the Sacred Manner by : Mark St. Pierre

Walking in the Sacred Manner is an exploration of the myths and culture of the Plains Indians, for whom the everyday and the spiritual are intertwined, and women play a strong and important role in the spiritual and religious life of the community. Based on extensive first-person interviews by an established expert on Plains Indian women, Walking in the Sacred Manner is a singular and authentic record of the participation of women in the sacred traditions of Northern Plains tribes, including Lakota, Cheyenne, Crow, and Assiniboine. Through interviews with holy women and the families of women healers, Mark St. Pierre and Tilda Long Soldier paint a rich and varied portrait of a society and its traditions. Stereotypical images of the Native American drop away as the voices, dreams, and experiences of these women (both healers and healed) present insight into a culture about which little is known. It is a journey into the past, an exploration of the present, and a view full of hope for the future.

Synopsis Teaching and Confronting Racial Neoliberalism in Higher Education by : Michelle D. Byng

This book examines the way in which professors must confront the social implications of racial neoliberalism. Drawing on autoethnographic research from the authors’ combined 100 years of teaching experience, it recognisesrecognizes the need for faculty to negotiate their own experiences with race, as well as those of their students. It focuses on the experiential nature of teaching, and thus supplementssupplementing the fields’ focus on pedagogy, and recognisesrecognizes that professors must in fact highlight, rather than downplay, the realities of racial inequalities of the past and present. It explores the ability of instructors to make students who are not of colour feel that they are not racists, as well as their ability to make students of colour feel that they can present their experiences of racism as legitimate. A unique sociological analysis of the racial studies classroom, it will be of value to researchers, scholars and faculty with interests in race and ethnicity in education, diversity and equality in education, as well as pedagogy, the sociology of education, and teaching and learning.
