Nursing Tales from the 'Hood and Suburbia

A Different Kind of Love Story

By: Benay Elaine Adam R.N.,Mary Elizabeth Burgess B.S. M.S.

The woman was distraught."You've got to save this cat," she said. "But, ma'am, this is an ER." "I know--emergency.That's why I brought him here." "We only work on people, ma'am. This is a hospital for people. We don't treat animals," he said kindly. She started to cry, not cry, but howl. "I'm sorry about your cat," the doctor said. She howled louder."It's not my cat," she said."I saw it get hit when I was driving down the street." With that, the cat scratched her arm, jumped from her lap, fell on the floor dead. She stopped howling. She looked at the black mass lying on her feet."Well, see what you've done," she said. "He's gone and died. Fine hospital this is." She flounced away,leaving the cat behind. "Okay, doctor, now what?" Benay asked. He picked up a black garbage bag used for biohazard waste, put the cat inside and deposited all in the trash container nearby. "One dead cat," he said. This amusing and wise book tells of one author's ER experiences told to her stepmother when she went to her aid after she tripped over her dishwasher door and broke her leg in three places. Growing warmth between the two women is a highlight as the stepdaughter pulls out all creativity stops to help her stepmom recover and become independent before she must return to her job in Ohio State University's hospital in Columbus. When the stepmom asked Benay why she was going to come, she replied, Because you married my dad." A different kind of love story, indeed.

Memory Work

White Ignorance and Black Resistance in Popular Magazines, 1900-1910

By: Mary E. Triece

In the early twentieth century, white-controlled magazines and Black magazines told very different stories about the dynamics of race, sex, and power in the United States. Memory Work: White Ignorance and Black Resistance in Popular Magazines, 1900–1910 examines how popular magazines employed rhetorical strategies to remember, forget, and frame America’s racist past. White-controlled magazines such as the Independent, Outlook, Arena, and McClure’s carried stories of southern nostalgia, union reconciliation, and white purity. Relying on willful ignorance to misremember past experiences of suffering, these texts severed violent histories from present-day policies and often simply remained silent. Meanwhile, in Black magazines such as the Colored American Magazine and the Voice of the Negro, women writers leveraged countermemory. Bringing Black women’s accomplishments into focus, these writers inverted popular white narratives that erased and obscured Black women’s experiences, including those of sexual violence. Mary E. Triece traces how white and Black magazines—often in dialogue with one another—differently engaged memory work to either reinforce or upend white supremacy during a period of both Black advancement and white backlash. Further, the book suggests lines of connection between the construction of public memory in the past to those taking place today across an array of media platforms. Popular debates—whether appearing in early 1900s magazines or on twenty-first-century social media sites—shape a culture’s collective knowledge of what counts as true, important, and worthy of attention.
