Inspired by June Jordan 's 1995 Poetry for the People, here is a blueprint for a 21st-century workshop model that protects and platforms writers of color. Instead of earmarking dusty anthologies, imagine workshop participants Skyping with contemporary writers of difference. Instead of tolerating bigoted criticism, imagine workshop participants moderating their own feedback sessions. Instead of yielding to the red-penned judgement of instructors, imagine workshop participants citing their own text in dialogue. The Antiracist Writing Workshop is essential reading for anyone looking to revolutionize the old workshop model into an enlightened, democratic counterculture. |

With an afterword by Reginald Dwayne Betts On April 16, 1923, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., responded to an open letter written and published by eight white clergyman admonishing the civil rights demonstrations happening in Birmingham, Alabama. Dr. King drafted his seminal response on scraps of paper smuggled into jail. King criticizes his detractors for caring more about order than justice, defends nonviolent protests, and argues for the moral responsibility to obey just laws while disobeying unjust ones. Letter from Birmingham Jail proclaims a message - confronting any injustice is an acceptable and righteous reason for civil disobedience. This beautifully designed edition presents Dr. King's speech in its entirety, paying tribute to this extraordinary leader and his immeasurable contribution, and inspiring a new generation of activists dedicated to carrying on the fight for justice and equality. |
| associate degree in creative writing: Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 National Research Council, Institute of Medicine, Board on Children, Youth, and Families, Committee on the Science of Children Birth to Age 8: Deepening and Broadening the Foundation for Success, 2015-07-23 Children are already learning at birth, and they develop and learn at a rapid pace in their early years. This provides a critical foundation for lifelong progress, and the adults who provide for the care and the education of young children bear a great responsibility for their health, development, and learning. Despite the fact that they share the same objective - to nurture young children and secure their future success - the various practitioners who contribute to the care and the education of children from birth through age 8 are not acknowledged as a workforce unified by the common knowledge and competencies needed to do their jobs well. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 explores the science of child development, particularly looking at implications for the professionals who work with children. This report examines the current capacities and practices of the workforce, the settings in which they work, the policies and infrastructure that set qualifications and provide professional learning, and the government agencies and other funders who support and oversee these systems. This book then makes recommendations to improve the quality of professional practice and the practice environment for care and education professionals. These detailed recommendations create a blueprint for action that builds on a unifying foundation of child development and early learning, shared knowledge and competencies for care and education professionals, and principles for effective professional learning. Young children thrive and learn best when they have secure, positive relationships with adults who are knowledgeable about how to support their development and learning and are responsive to their individual progress. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 offers guidance on system changes to improve the quality of professional practice, specific actions to improve professional learning systems and workforce development, and research to continue to build the knowledge base in ways that will directly advance and inform future actions. The recommendations of this book provide an opportunity to improve the quality of the care and the education that children receive, and ultimately improve outcomes for children. |

| associate degree in creative writing: Immigrant Model Mihaela Moscaliuc, 2015-01-10 The poems in Immigrant Model explore issues of individual and communal identity in the face of conflict, conflicting truths or histories, and uprootedness. They explore the notion of homeland as it relates to one's roots, adopted space, psychological terrain, gendered body. If the book reads as a collage of voices or shards rather than as a book with an identifiable arc, it's because that's the only way the poet has managed to answer, so far, the question, What is it like to be of this world and this world and this world, while also of the elsewhere skirting these worlds? |

| associate degree in creative writing: Malaya Cinelle Barnes, 2019 From Cinelle Barnes, author of the memoir Monsoon Mansion, comes a moving and reflective essay collection about finding freedom in America. Out of a harrowing childhood in the Philippines, Cinelle Barnes emerged triumphant. But as an undocumented teenager living in New York, her journey of self-discovery was just beginning. Because she couldn't get a driver's license or file taxes, Cinelle worked as a cleaning lady and a nanny and took other odd jobs--and learned to look over her shoulder, hoping she wouldn't get caught. When she falls in love and marries a white man from the South, Cinelle finds herself trying to adjust to the thorny underbelly of southern hospitality while dealing with being a new mother, an immigrant affected by PTSD, and a woman with a brown body in a profoundly white world. From her immigration to the United States, to navigating a broken legal system, to balancing assimilation and a sense of self, Cinelle comes to rely on her resilience and her faith in the human spirit to survive and come of age all over again. Lyrical, emotionally driven, and told through stories both lived and overheard, Cinelle's intensely personal, yet universal, exploration of race, class, and identity redefines what it means to be a woman--and an American--in a divided country. |

| associate degree in creative writing: How To Become An Author, How To Be Highly Successful As An Author, And How To Earn Revenue As An Author Dr. Harrison Sachs, 2024-05-06 This essay sheds light on how to become an author, explicates how to be highly successful as an author, and elucidates how to earn revenue as an author. While becoming an author may seem be an eminently cumbersome, expensive, time-consuming, and daunting undertaking, it is viably possible to become an author. Much to the relief of prospective authors, it is possible to become an author in a time span of less than half of a decade and the journey to become an author is not as lengthy as the journey to pursue certain other occupations, such as the occupations of a medical doctor or attorney. The pathway that a prospective author can follow to become an author is fraught with challenges that are not a cinch to surmount. It can be arduous to fulfill the duties of an author. Writing skills are highly desirable skills to possess. As of May of 2024, only an infinitesimal fraction of one percent of the global population are employed as authors. In the U.S., for instance, less than 49,500 work as “writers and authors” even though the U.S. population is comprised of over 328,000,000 people as of May of 2024. As of May of 2024, less than .015% of people in the U.S. work as “writers and authors”. This means that out of 6,627 random people in the U.S., about only one person at most works as a “writer or author” as of May of 2024. As of May of 2024, it was estimated that there were more medical doctors and attorneys as an aggregate in the U.S. than authors in the U.S. even though it takes far more years to fulfill the ample mandatory requirements to become a medical doctor or attorney than it takes to fulfill the mandatory requirements to become an author. As of May of 2024, there are no mandatory requirements that need to be fulfilled for a person to become an author. As of May of 2024, the economy is unequivocally in dire need of more authors, especially since they are not only able to produce informative articles, but are also able to produce epic fantasy novels, insightful educational books, and intriguing biography books. Screenplays for movies and television series can be based on epic fantasy novels. Videos games can also be based on epic fantasy novels. Media franchises can also be based on epic fantasy novels. Media franchises that are based on epic fantasy novels can change people's lives from around the world. Media franchises that are based on epic fantasy novels can provide lucrative career opportunities to video game developers, animators, graphic designers, graphic artists, actors, screenplay writers, sculptors, musicians, content creators, and live streamers. The Harry Potter franchise, for instance, is a media franchise that is based on epic fantasy novels. The fictitious wizarding world is intriguing to fans of the fantasy genre since it is replete with interesting characters, compelling stories, and incredible settings. The Harry Potter franchise has had bearing on helping producers of Harry Potter merchandise, wholesalers of Harry Potter merchandise, and retailers of Harry Potter merchandise to generate sales revenue. The Harry Potter franchise has also had bearing on helping resellers of Harry Potter merchandise on the secondhand market to generate sales revenue. Customers are fond of Harry Potter merchandise. The Harry Potter franchise has provided lucrative career opportunities to an exorbitant amount of professionals across disparate industries. The Harry Potter franchise has provided lucrative career opportunities to a copious amount of professionals that are not limited to the aforementioned types of professionals. The Harry Potter franchise has, for instance, also provided lucrative career opportunities to movie directors who have been involved in directing the movies that are subsumed under the Harry Potter franchise. Furthermore, the Harry Potter franchise has also provided lucrative career opportunities to board game designers who have been involved in designing board games that are based on the Harry Potter franchise. Moreover, the Harry Potter franchise has also helped composers who are involved in the composition of songs for the Harry Potter franchise to obtain substantial wealth. The Harry Potter franchise has changed people’s live since it has furnished people with the opportunity to generate extreme wealth. People are able to seamlessly obtain their needs that are apart of Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory when they have extreme wealth. |

| associate degree in creative writing: Monsoon Mansion Cinelle Barnes, 2018 Told with a lyrical, almost-dreamlike voice as intoxicating as the moonflowers and orchids that inhabit this world, Monsoon Mansion is a harrowing yet triumphant coming-of-age memoir exploring the dark, troubled waters of a family's rise and fall from grace in the Philippines. It would take a young warrior to survive it. Cinelle Barnes was barely three years old when her family moved into Mansion Royale, a stately ten-bedroom home in the Philippines. Filled with her mother's opulent social aspirations and the gloriously excessive evidence of her father's self-made success, it was a girl's storybook playland. But when a monsoon hits, her father leaves, and her mother's terrible lover takes the reins, Cinelle's fantastical childhood turns toward tyranny she could never have imagined. Formerly a home worthy of magazines and lavish parties, Mansion Royale becomes a dangerous shell of the splendid palace it had once been. In this remarkable ode to survival, Cinelle creates something magical out of her truth--underscored by her complicated relationship with her mother. Through a tangle of tragedy and betrayal emerges a revelatory journey of perseverance and strength, of grit and beauty, and of coming to terms with the price of family--and what it takes to grow up. |

Just to tell it like it really was, to make sure we hear their voice, their side of the story. |
| associate degree in creative writing: The Honeymoon Corruption Richard Lee Zuras, 2015-03-31 It's the early 1960s, and while the Doo-wop era is ending, racial and class prejudice is alive and thriving in the American South. In this unforgiving environment, star-crossed young lovers Althea and Guy are determined to wed-despite the objections of Althea's disapproving and powerful father. Undeterred, the couple elopes to the seaside resort town of Wildwood, New Jersey, with two suitcases, a veil, and no plans. Fast running out of cash, they fall in with a local duo: the free-spirited Jeannie and the fast-talking Max Castaldi, who may be able to provide just the break the young couple needs. But as Max introduces Guy to a shadier world that seethes under the boardwalk lights, both Guy and Althea-so full of optimism at first-soon learn that getting on their feet in this town may demand more than they are prepared to give. Set against a backdrop of the glitzy, glamorous resorts of the Mid-Atlantic coast in its heyday, The Honeymoon Corruption marries hope with fear, desperation with promise, and triumph with tragedy, revealing the seedy underbelly of the East in the Kennedy era-and the true cost of a fairy-tale ending that might not be such a fairy tale after all. |

| associate degree in creative writing: Writing the Australian Beach Elizabeth Ellison, Donna Lee Brien, 2020-03-02 Writing the Australian Beach is the first book in fifteen years to explore creative and cultural representations of this iconic landscape, and how writers and scholars have attempted to understand and depict it. Although the content chiefly focuses on Australia, the beach as both a location and idea resonates deeply with readers around the world. This edited collection includes three sections. Forms of Beach Writing examines the history of beach writing in Australia and in a number of forms: screenwriting, social media writing, and food writing. In turn, Multiplicities of Australian Beach Writing examines how forms of writing—poetry, travel writing, horror film, and memoir—engage with some specific beaches in Australia. And, finally, Reading the Beach as a Text considers how the beach itself functions in cultural narratives: how we walk the beach; the revealing story of beach soccer; and the design and use of ocean baths. Given its scope, the collection offers a unique resource for scholars of Australian culture and creative writing, and for all those interested in Australian beaches. |

| associate degree in creative writing: Language Arts in Asia Christina DeCoursey, 2012-01-17 This volume is the first of a series contributing to the academic study of Language Arts, as an English-language teaching paradigm. Language Arts has been widely used in native English-speaking countries including Australia and New Zealand. Its recent adoption into the second-language teaching curriculum in Hong Kong, as well as similar initiatives within secondary and tertiary education in mainland China, enhances its interest to scholars studying second-language teaching and learning in Asian contexts. This book offers many papers and discussions of interest to teachers, language professionals, scholars and administrators. Its chapters explore current topics in Language Arts research including trends in the rapprochment of stylistics and linguistics, teaching approaches and learning outcomes. At the same time, they offer diverse theoretical and methodological aproaches, of interest to the practitioner and policy-maker as well as the researcher. The value of this volume lies particularly in strengthening the theoretical and methodological foundations of Language Arts. The use of literature and the arts in humanist education has a long history within Europe, being traditionally appreciated for its ability to transform leaders, instill finer sensibilities and question social ills. In its postcolonial incarnations, as the traditional subject areas were informed by critical and linguistic theories, language arts subject areas were less often used, as they were understood to offer opportunities to analyse their functions as apology for leaders, coopting the young, and pacifying dissent but less often used to teach second language skills. Language Arts curricula arising since the 1980s have increasingly embraced authentic voices, styles and genres. Contemporary Language Arts curricula use literature to teach reading-based and communication skills, in conjunction with critical and creative thinking. The movement of English-language education beyond native English shores has placed Language Arts into a World Englishes frame, and therefore its curricula have included the teaching ethics, civics and intercultural sensitivity. The explosion of media and digital communications of the 1990s led to the adoption of media literacy as a crucial Language Arts skill. As digital innovations continue to impact the teaching of English, Language Arts has adopted multiliteracies. These developments are represented in the papers included in this volume. |
