Описание:
A collaboration of artists and writers commemorates a powerful symbol for social justice and freedom on Chicago’s South Side
The Wall of Respect, a work of public art created in 1967 at the corner of Forty-third Street and Langley Avenue on Chicago’s South Side, depicted Black leaders in music, literature, politics, and sports. The Wall sparked a nationwide mural movement, provided a platform for community engagement, and was a foundational work of the Black Arts Movement. There is no longer any physical indication of its existence, but it still needs to be remembered. Fleeting Monuments for the Wall of Respect argues against making a monument of it, or of other historically significant events, in the formal language of grandness and permanence. Instead, Romi Crawford proposes the concept of “fleeting monuments,” asking a range of artists and writers to realize antiheroic, nonstatic, and impermanent strategies for commemoration. The result is a collection of “fleeting monuments” of poetry, photography, essays, artworks, and performance that invites readers to enact the history of the Wall of Respect on their own terms. Through the intimate and portable format of a book, Fleeting Monuments for the Wall of Respect recognizes and pays tribute to the Wall while proposing new strategies for commemoration and public memory that inspire us today as we endeavor to preserve the recent murals, installations, and other forms of public art created to support racial justice.

Описание:
The Key, A Social Emotional Toolkit for Teens is a teaching tool for teenagers. Under the umbrella of emotional intelligence, The Key addresses various life skills and coping mechanisms to help teens better understand themselves and deal with the day to day pressures of school, peers and family. At every step there are self-enquiry exercises, explanations and 'things you can do'. Through self-awareness, writing therapy, Youtube and discussion, this book addresses a range of topics and themes we should have learnt as young people, but often didn't.
In psychological development, adolescence is the period of self-discovery and identity - discovering who they are as they make the sometimes difficult transition from childhood to adulthood. This is a vital time in their lives to learn life skills and coping strategies as they move forward to becoming young adults.
As a professional social worker, I have worked in the areas of homelessness, drug and alcohol and mental and emotional health across Australia, Romania, Spain, United Kingdom, Vietnam, India, Cambodia and Thailand, working with locals and international teenagers and adults. Working with teenagers I noticed they were often ill-equipped to self soothe and define what was wrong, exploding or withdrawing due to lack of coping skills. Working with adults from all over the world in holistic counselling I discovered that our issues often boiled down to one thing - we never learnt the skills to cope with daily stresses or major life crisis. The Key aims to address this gap and go back to basics to help us learn about ourselves and our place in the world in order to live a full and emotionally healthy life. This book is for everyone.
The Key, A Social Emotional Toolkit for Teens is both a book and a course. The book is thorough and offers Youtube videos to help with some of the more tricky topics such as anxiety, understanding negative thoughts and three different types of basic breathing and meditations. Any teenger or parent could read it without additional guidance. Teen counsellors and school counsellors can use it is a resource and schools or community groups can teach it as a course.
In 2017 and 2018 The Key was taught by the author as a 10 week curriculum in the top school in the State of Victoria, Australia. It is appropriate to be taught to 12-20 year olds. The author's aim is for every teenager in the world to have access to a set of skills that will help them navigate smoothly through life's journey and lead socially, emotionally and mentallly healthy lives.
The author is also available for additional support with individuals, group workshops or to teach the course.

Описание: Romi Brenner is back from the front lines of working motherhood with more gems such as how not to go to a video conference, why two months' notice is required before hosting a play date, how to decimate a glowing reputation with your company in one business trip, and why you shouldn't take tired children out to a restaurant. Even if it means you have to go home and make them cat food for dinner. Or bark chips.From the domestically challenged author of Please Tell Me I'm On Mute comes another collection of stories about the blissful madness that is parenthood. If you've ever spent half an hour picking play dough out of dinosaur teeth or made a small child cry because you served them lunch on the wrong plate, if you haven't gone through a whole day without someone else using your shirt as a napkin or remember when last you made it through a shower without an audience, then this is your song too.

Описание: Trying to preserve her last few precious shreds of sanity while working and raising children, Romi Brenner has come to terms with the fact that sometimes you have to turn a blind eye to the fashion whims of a four year old, that you can never underestimate the power of a phone with a working mute button, and that pedicures just aren't for everyone.Maintaining her sense of humor amid bath time hysterics, birthday cake pop carnage and botched early morning conference calls, Brenner takes her readers through a series of hilarious essays about motherhood and family life.Join Brenner and find out why she won't let her husband go couch shopping on his own, why she is looking into buying stock in salt water taffy and how she lost her mind to motherhood, but why she doesn't mind at all.
