The Story of Nelson Mandela 100 Years After His Birth

By: Myra Faye Turner

Can you imagine growing up in a segregated South Africa; under the burden of apartheid? What if you were a member of a royal family; but were expelled from a prestigious university for taking part in a protest -- and then returned home to find a marriage had been arranged for you? This was the early life of the man who would win the Nobel Peace Prize at age 75 and become South Africa's first democratically elected president at age 76. The young Nelson Mandela changed his opinion of the government he once trusted and dedicated himself to changing the future of all South African people; regardless of the color of their skin. This book will introduce you to Nelson Mandela before he became an international icon for integration and peaceful coexistence. You'll learn about his upbringing; his time as a lawyer; his arrest; his 27-year political imprisonment; and his presidential election. You will come to appreciate the man who called himself "fundamentally an optimist" for his charisma; style; and peaceful nature; and you'll learn about how; even as a man in chains; he fostered a community that believed in desegregation and the open exchange of ideas. Mandela's patience and determination to effect political change stayed with him throughout his life; from his days as a idealistic college student defying tribal authority to his later years as an eloquent public speaker; philanthropist; and international icon of peace.

People That Changed the Course of History: The Story of Martin Luther King's Assassination 50 Years Later

By: Myra Faye Turner

Have you ever wondered why it seems like almost every city has a street named after Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.? Or why there is a national holiday in January to honor his birthday? As we mark the 50th anniversary of Dr. King's assassination, this book explores how the Baptist preacher from Atlanta came to be the leader of the 1960s civil rights movement. You will explore his influential acts of civil disobedience, like the March on Washington in 1963, when he delivered his famous "I Have a Dream" speech. You will learn about the causes he championed, including ending racial discrimination in the workplace and establishing a higher minimum wage, topics still making headlines today. Take a closer look at the extraordinary life of this family man, eloquent speaker, and Nobel Peace Prize winner, cut short in 1968 when he was shot at age 39. Learn why even after his death, Dr. King has been honored with presidential and congressional medals, a monument on Washington, D.C.'s National Mall, and streets named after him in more than 900 cities.

Events That Changed the Course of History: The Story of Alabama Becoming a State 200 Years Later

By: Myra Faye Turner

Sweet Home Alabama — the skies are blue and the history is deep. Its distinctive culture stands as a pinnacle of the Deep South with a football team that has won more than 15 national championships, tasty local specialties like pulled pork and fried dill pickles, and a southern drawl that’s sweet as Sorghum molasses. But there’s more to Alabama than what meets the eye. Before Alabama became one of the shining stars on the American flag, its history had already begun. Alabama 200 years ago was a very different place. Before Alabama was even a speck in the eyes of white settlers, native populations thrived upon its rich red soil. But when Europeans landed in the New World, everything changed and the gears of modern history began to turn. While Alabama seems to be a place to sleepily lounge in the sun and watch the world rush by, its own history was anything but lethargic. Once the ball toward statehood began rolling in Alabama, little could stop it. Alabama seemingly had a hand in every major event in U.S. history, from the Revolutionary War to the Civil Rights movement to current events with history in the making, and everything in between. In “Events That Changed the Course of History: The Story of Alabama Becoming a State 200 Years Later”, you’ll learn how this underdog of a state that is often written off has a unique and ever-changing history that will surely leave you wanting to visit and see the history for yourself.

Hidden in History: The Untold Story of Female Artists, Musicians, and Writers

By: Myra Faye Turner

Of the few historical shortlists women make as influencers in the arts; the same few names are recognized; making the catalogue of powerful and gifted females feel like an small and exclusive club. The truth is; however; that far more women than we know can be credited with contributions to the industries in which they honed their crafts. In 1940; when the world was at war and the Civil Rights Movement had yet to turn the page of history; Hattie McDaniel became the first black woman to win an Academy Award. She and Anna May Wong fought hard to pave the way for actresses of color and fight against racial stereotypes. Maria Tallchief was the first; and one of the only; Native American prima ballerinas to push past the stage wings toward the limelight. More than just performers; these women were people as well. In Hidden in History: The Untold Stories of Female Artists; Musicians; and Writers; the lives of many of these artists are explored; from Edmonia Lewis' wrongful expulsion from higher learning to the boundary-breaking talents of the International Sweethearts of Rhythm and their untraditional start as a school band. This book is an open door to the lives of 10 female artists; wordsmiths and performers whose work has often been overlooked in the dusty pages of an often male-dictated narration.

The Story of Apollo 11 and the Men on the Moon 50 Years Later

By: Myra Faye Turner

Imagine being far enough from the earth that it looks like a tiny blue circle. In July 1969, three men aboard the Apollo spaceship got to see just that on their way to the moon. The moon landing is an unforgettable episode in American history. For centuries, going to the moon had seemed like an interesting idea, but surely impossible. But as various technologies developed at a rapid pace in the mid-20th century, the impossible became possible. You've surely heard of Armstrong's famous words, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." But there's probably a lot that you don't know. Get ready to discover the following: - The debate behind Armstrong's famous words - The contents of the poem that Pat Collins gave her husband before he left Earth - The adrenaline rush of the three astronauts when Apollo 11 launched - How the astronauts dealt with TV cameras to provide video footage - The complex responsibilities of managing a spaceship 50 years ago Even if you've heard recordings of Neil Armstrong's voice many times, when you immerse yourself in the dramatic events of July 1969, you'll unearth the significance and fascination of this famous historical event"--
