The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian – Sherman Alexie** Bestselling author Sherman Alexie tells the story of Junior, a budding cartoonist growing up on the Spokane Indian Reservation. Determined to take his future into his own hands, Junior leaves his troubled school on the rez to attend an all-white farm town high school where the only other Indian is the school mascot. Heartbreaking, funny, and beautifully written, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, which is based on the author's own experiences, ** coupled with poignant drawings by Ellen Forney that reflect the character's art, chronicles the contemporary adolescence of one Native American boy as he attempts to break away from the life he was destined to live. American Born Chinese – Gene Luen Yang All Jin Wang wants is to fit in. When his family moves to a new neighborhood, he suddenly finds that he's the only Chinese American student at his school. Jocks and bullies pick on him constantly, and he has hardly any friends. Then, to make matters worse, he falls in love with an all-American girl... Born to rule over all the monkeys in the world, the story of the Monkey King is one of the oldest and greatest Chinese fables. Adored by his subjects, master of the arts of kung-fu, he is the most powerful monkey on earth. But the Monkey King doesn't want to be a monkey. He wants to be hailed as a god... Chin-Kee is the ultimate negative Chinese stereotype, and he's ruining his cousin Danny's life. Danny's a popular kid at school, but every year Chin-Kee comes to visit, and every year Danny has to transfer to a new school to escape the shame. This year, though, things quickly go from bad to worse... Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe – Benjamin Alaire Saenz** Aristotle is an angry teen with a brother in prison. Dante is a know-it-all who has an unusual way of looking at the world. When the two meet at the swimming pool, they seem to have nothing in common. But as the loners start spending time together, they discover that they share a special friendship—the kind that changes lives and lasts a lifetime. And it is through this friendship that Ari and Dante will learn the most important truths about themselves and the kind of people they want to be. ** The Boy in the Black Suit – Jason Reynolds** Just when seventeen-year-old Matt thinks he can’t handle one more piece of terrible news, he meets a girl who’s dealt with a lot more—and who just might be able to clue him in on how to rise up when life keeps knocking him down—in this wry, gritty novel from the author of When I Was the Greatest. ** (Memoir) ^ Matt wears a black suit every day. No, not because his mom died—although she did, and it sucks. But he wears the suit for his gig at the local funeral home, which pays way better than the Cluck Bucket, and he needs the income since his dad can’t handle the bills (or anything, really) on his own. So while Dad’s snagging bottles of whiskey, Matt’s snagging fifteen bucks an hour. Not bad. But everything else? Not good. Then Matt meets Lovey. She’s got a crazy name, and she’s been through more crazy than he can imagine. Yet Lovey never cries. She’s tough. Really tough. Tough in the way Matt wishes he could be. Which is maybe why he’s drawn to her, and definitely why he can’t seem to shake her. Because there’s nothing more hopeful than finding a person who understands your loneliness—and who can maybe even help take it away. ** Brown Girl Dreaming – Jacqueline Woodson** Raised in South Carolina and New York, Woodson always felt halfway home in each place. In vivid poems, she shares what it was like to grow up as an African American in the 1960s and 1970s, living with the remnants of Jim Crow and her growing awareness of the Civil Rights movement. Touching and powerful, each poem is both accessible and emotionally charged, each line a glimpse into a child’s soul as she searches for her place in the world. Woodson’s eloquent poetry also reflects the joy of finding her voice through writing stories, despite the fact that she struggled with reading as a child. Her love of stories inspired her ** and stayed with her, creating the first sparks of the gifted writer (Memoir ) ^ she was to become. The Crossover – Kwame Alexander** "With a bolt of lightning on my kicks . .The court is SIZZLING. My sweat is DRIZZLING. Stop all that quivering. Cuz tonight I'm ** delivering," announces dread-locked, 12-year old Josh Bell. He and his twin brother Jordan are awesome on the court. But Josh has more than basketball in his blood, he's got mad beats, too, that tell his family's story in verse, in this fast and furious middle grade novel of family and brotherhood. Josh and Jordan must come to grips with growing up on and off the court to realize breaking the rules comes at a terrible price, as their story's heart-stopping climax proves a game-changer for the entire family. ** Eleanor and Park – Rainbow Rowell** Two misfits. One extraordinary love. Eleanor... Red hair, wrong clothes. Standing behind him until he turns his head. Lying beside him until he wakes up. Making everyone else seem drabber and flatter and never good enough...Eleanor. Park... He knows she'll love a song before he plays it for her. He laughs at her jokes before she ever gets to the punch line. There's a place on his chest, just below his throat, that makes her want to keep ** promises...Park. Set over the course of one school year, this is the story of two star- crossed sixteen-year-olds—smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try. Everything, Everything – Nicola Yoon** ** My disease is as rare as it is famous. Basically, I’m allergic to the world. I don’t leave my house, have not left my house in seventeen years. The only people I ever see are my mom and my nurse, Carla. But then one day, a moving truck arrives next door. I look out my window, and I see him. He’s tall, lean and wearing all black—black T- shirt, black jeans, black sneakers, and a black knit cap that covers his hair completely. He catches me looking and stares at me. I stare right back. His name is Olly. Maybe we can’t predict the future, but we can predict some things. For example, I am certainly going to fall in love with Olly. It’s almost certainly ** going to be a disaster. Holding Up the Universe – Jennifer Niven** Everyone thinks they know Libby Strout, the girl once dubbed “America’s Fattest Teen.” But no one’s taken the time to look past her weight to get to know who she really is. Following her mom’s death, she’s been picking up the pieces in the privacy of her home, dealing with her heartbroken father and her own grief. Now, Libby’s ready: for high school, for new friends, for love, and for every possibility life has to offer. In that moment, I know the part I want to play here at MVB High. I want to be the girl who can do anything. Everyone thinks they know Jack Masselin, too. Yes, he’s got swagger, but he’s also mastered the impossible art of giving people what they want, of fitting in. What no one knows is that Jack has a newly acquired secret: he can’t recognize ** faces. Even his own brothers are strangers to him. He’s the guy who can re- engineer and rebuild anything, but he can’t understand what’s going on with the inner workings of his brain. So he tells himself to play it cool: Be charming. Be hilarious. Don’t get too close to anyone. Until he meets Libby. When the two get tangled up in a cruel high school game—which lands them in group counseling and community service—Libby and Jack are both pissed, and then surprised. Because the more time they spend together, the less alone they feel. Because sometimes when you meet someone, it changes the world, theirs and yours. If You Could Be Mine – Sara Farizan Seventeen-year-old Sahar has been in love with her best friend, Nasrin, since they were six. They’ve shared stolen kisses and romantic promises. But Iran is a dangerous place for two girls in love—Sahar and Nasrin could be beaten, imprisoned, even executed if their relationship came to light. So they carry on in secret—until Nasrin’s parents announce that they’ve arranged for her marriage. Nasrin tries to persuade Sahar that they can go on as they have been, only now with new comforts provided by the decent, well-to-do doctor Nasrin will marry.

  • Potter's Wheel Prayer
    Potter’s Wheel Prayer — T. C. Moore, New City Church of Los Angeles Sermon Series: A Prayer-FULL Life Sermon Title: “Potter’s Wheel Prayer” Speaker: T. C. Moore Scripture: Jeremiah 18.1-6 January 24th, 2015 Good morning. For the last several weeks, we’ve been in a sermon series called [Slide 1] “A Prayer-FULL Life.” So we’ve kicked off the new year with some foundational and vital teaching on prayer. Pastor Kevin started us off by teaching on the role of prayer in bringing about revival, not only in our own lives, but also in our community, in our city, and throughout the world. No revival movement in the history of the church started without prayer being the catalyst. From Pentecost to the Pentecostal Movement (birthed right here in L.A.) prayer has been the spark that set these movements ablaze. !Then, two weeks ago, Pastor Kevin addressed the age-old question “Does prayer only change us, or does prayer move the heart of God?” And I was so encouraged by his answer in that message. The Bible unequivocally teaches that prayer moves the heart of God. God created the world in such a way as to share power with the creatures God has created. The Bible says we are God’s co-workers! There is synergy between God and humanity. Part of the future hangs in the balance on whether we pray! That’s what the Bible actually teaches! !Then, last week, Pastor Kevin talked about the power of “practicing the presence of God” in our everyday life.

  • An Introduction to Japanese Society's Attitudes Toward Race and Skin Color
    Chapter 4 An Introduction to Japanese Society’s Attitudes Toward Race and Skin Color Debito Arudou Introduction Japan, no doubt like any country or society, places cultural value on skin color and melanin content. In Japan’s case, historically and traditionally, pale, unblemished white skin is held in high regard. For example, in classical Japanese ukiyo-e and woodblock prints, Japan’s upper classes and historical figures are generally rendered with very pale skin, while Japanese women, seen mostly indoors, are generally rendered whiter than men. To the present day, Japan’s traditional entertainers (from Kabuki actors to geisha) whiten their skin cosmetically, and its heroes (as seen, e.g., in Japan’s Neputa Festival (JNTO 2011) in Aomori Prefecture) are depicted as light-skinned Japanese battling hairy, swarthy barbarians. In modern Japanese adult society, skin coloring and care is de rigueur for women and sometimes even men (Ashikari 2005). Despite being the tenth most populous nation in the world, Japan’s cosmetics market is the world’s second largest, with an annual turnover of 990 billion yen in 2009 (Austrade 2010), selling products to both lighten and darken skin. Notwithstanding Japan’s fascination with African American culture, most related products, such as UV-blocking makeup foundation, sunscreen, visors, and parasols, help to keep skin light; darker tones due to sun exposure are often negatively associated with aging skin or outdoor manual labor (Ashikari ibid). Further, in a society where most members see themselves as similarly dark-haired and dark-eyed, distinctions are made in Japanese media by darkening skin tones and lightening or coloring hair.

  • NATIONAL Veterans Day Tribute Concert
    NATIONAL Veterans Day Tribute Concert WASHINGTON NATIONAL CATHEDRAL NOVEMBER 11, 2018 5 PM a letter from PRESIDENT JIMMY CARTER November 11, 2018 NATIONAL Veterans Day Tribute Concert AT WASHINGTON NATIONAL CATHEDRAL NOVEMBER 11, 2018 • 5 PM from the dean: our vision As a cathedral that claims a national role, identifies itself as a house of prayer for all people, and is located in the heart of the Nation’s Capital, Washington National Cathedral desires to be a spiritual home for those who have served, their families, and the military community. From its institutional beginnings, the Cathedral has held high regard for military service. Through the building itself, as well as worship services and commemorations, this institution has honored military service through two world wars and, to date, conflicts in Korea, Vietnam, and other places around the world. For almost seventeen years, our country has been in a constant state of military conflict. Thousands of men and women have served in the US Armed Forces. They and their families deserve our respect and support. Across the generations, some of those who have served have found it difficult to reintegrate into civilian life. For these individuals, and those who care for them, the Cathedral seeks to be a source of comfort and God’s healing love for veterans, their families, and active duty men and women. Whether you are military or civilian, we hope that tonight’s tribute will inspire you to offer your support to this community. The freewill offering collected tonight will go to support veterans and military ministries here at the Cathedral.

  • Rafael Guzman 2 X Phaethon 2019 Phaethon 2019 O 3
    Phaethon 2019 o 1 mixed media cover mask by Rafael Guzman 2 x Phaethon 2019 Phaethon 2019 o 3 About Phaethon The myth of Phaethon is simple. He seeks to know his father. So he asks his mother Clymene, and she tells him his father is none other than Apollo, the god of the sun. Phaethon goes to Apollo and asks for some proof of their relationship, and Apollo says he will grant him one wish. Phaethon wishes to drive Apollo’s chariot that pulls the sun across the sky. The only being that can do this successfully is Apollo himself. Not even Zeus can pull the sun across the sky. Knowing this, Apollo tries to dissuade Phaethon from this task. This does not work, and Phaethon is placed in charge of the chariot and its horses that breathe fire. Doomed from the start, Phaethon loses control of the chariot and nearly burns up the Earth. The Earth cries out to Zeus for help, and Zeus strikes Phaethon dead with a thunderbolt. Phaethon, now a falling star, plunged into the river Eridanos still ablaze. His epitaph reads: Here Phaethon lies who in the sun-god’s chariot fared. And though he greatly failed, more greatly he dared. In the spirit of this figure, we at the Phaethon value bold, confident, daring, courageous, and risky fiction, poetry, and art. Phaethon is not a tragic figure. His actions, that of a mere mortal, for a brief moment of time are equal to an immortal. He did something no other mortal, or immortal for that matter, could ever do.
