This book is a celebration of an extraordinary storyteller and, like all books, it needed a title. Brother Blue is a master of the spoken word, shaping it improvisationally into rhymes and rhythms as a jazz musician bends notes. Blue has birthed a thousand phrases, each uniquely his own. yet when we sought a title for this book, there was only one really possibility: Ahhhh, Blue's wordless exhalation of awe and wonder--an assertion of the ineffable.
Women’s Sexual and Reproductive Health addresses the sexual and reproductive health needs of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) women from a structural and intersectional perspective. AANHPI women in the United States have often been grouped together due to their race and gender, regardless of their specific communities’ diverse histories with the United States and different educational and economic opportunities. The authors argue that AANHPI women are misunderstood by health professionals and researchers, and foregrounds AANHPI women’s experiences to demonstrate the challenges they face when seeking health care. The book highlights the diversity of AANHPI women by drawing on their first-hand experiences, and argues for the disaggregation of health data on AANHPI women. Women’s Sexual and Reproductive Health is of value to college classrooms that address racial disparities, health disparities, and women’s experiences, as well as for health care professionals.
Taking a new and innovative angle on social work, this book seeks to remedy the lack of holistic perspectives currently used in Western social work practice by exploring Indigenous and other culturally diverse understandings and experiences of healing. This book examines six core areas of healing through a holistic lens that is grounded in a decolonizing perspective. Situating integrative healing within social work education and theory, the book takes an interdisciplinary approach, drawing from social memory and historical trauma, contemplative traditions, storytelling, healing literatures, integrative health, and the traditional environmental knowledge of Indigenous Peoples. In exploring issues of water, creative expression, movement, contemplation, animals, and the natural world in relation to social work practice, the book will appeal to all scholars, practitioners, and community members interested in decolonization and Indigenous studies.
As a Gospel Singer and Evangelist traveling around the US and Canada for fourteen years she has seen a great deal and been tried and tested much. Her faith and trust in God are remarkable and she shares that faith and trust through her stories about her experiences on the road as well as what she has learned from Father in the process. However, there is so much more to know. Abba provided Morning Sun teachers and tools with which to study His Love Letter to us and she shares both the tools and the things she has learned from her in depth studying. Her unction to know Yahaveh and understand His word by finding answers to her every question is huge and very contagious. Her heart now is to create for everyone who reads Nuts and Bolts, that same unction to Know God and answer their own questions in His word.
To read this book is to take an incredible journey. It is almost unbelievable that one person could live through so much and survive it all, much less go on to heal the emotional damage done to her heart mind and soul. A tissue may be required as His Morning Sun, shares the authors own life story as heart rending as it was. However, the biggest mistake the reader could do is to put the book down where her story ends. The second half of the book is about your own healing. Morning Sun takes the exact same teachings that God used to heal her life and presents them to you the reader for your own healing. She walks the reader through each step of their healing and uses her own life as the example. Morning Sun shows you her heart, then takes you on a journey into the very depths of your own heart.
