E-bokPDF, Engelska, 2015591 kr

The postwar government of South Africa, led by H.F. Verwoerd, implemented wide-ranging racial segregation laws, beginning the open policy of apartheid in one of Africa's most prosperous and internationally influential states. During the apartheid era, the British government faced an uneasy dilemma: while repudiating apartheid laws it maintained an ambiguous stance towards the South African government. As black South African's were reduced to the status of non-citizens after the 1970 Citizenship Act, increasing numbers of exiles and fugitives were finding refuge in Britain, which was now home to a growing anti-apartheid protest movement. This is the first book to examine the British support for the anti-apartheid movement among its own black communities. Elizabeth Williams highlights the connection between domestic anti-racism struggles and the struggle in South Africa, showing how black Britons who were themselves fighting racism in British society identified and expressed solidarity with black South Africans during the Apartheid years.Williams further assesses the way in which Black communities in Britain viewed Margaret Thatcher's support of South Africa despite the international call for sanctions. Featuring the work of acclaimed documentary photographer and civil rights activist Vanley Burke, this will be an essential book for students and scholars of race, British history, international relations, post-colonial studies and South African history.Politics of Race in Britain and South Africa

Get aboard Nonnie's wagons as they head across Africa escaping the Khaki soldiers in 1901. Annie and Koos are there, sometimes frightened but mostly having a great adventure as they meet with a black mamba snake, a honey bird, a strange ghost, elephants and see a comet streaking across the night sky. All the while Koos must hide Cluck, his pet chicken, from Nonnie's casserole pot.
Enjoy the ride!

The history of sexuality has progressed from its earlier marginal status to a central place in historiography. Not only are its foci of research intriguing, but the field has initiated important theoretical advances for the discipline as a whole, especially through the work of Michel Foucault. The editors of this new four-volume Routledge collection define sexuality in a broader sense than sexual identity, to include sexual emotions, desires, acts, representations, and relationships. And while the history of sexuality began in the American and European spheres, the volumes also integrate studies of Asian, African, and other sexual cultures. Similarly, the collection integrates studies from early periods (such as classical Greece and Rome and the medieval era) with modern histories of sexuality.The editors of this new four-volume Routledge collection define sexuality in a broader sense than sexual identity, to include sexual emotions, desires, acts, representations, and relationships.

Diversity and Cultural Competence in the Health Sector: Ebola-Affected Countries in West Africa examines the 2014–2016 Ebola crisis in three West African countries. The authors argue that this public health disaster was exacerbated by the lack of cultural competency in emergency response efforts. Considering the role of culture in the social, economic, health-related, and political dynamics that made these countries particularly vulnerable to the disease and how culturally competent approaches could have been employed sooner to reduce risk and prevent death and disability, this book serves as a guide for government officials, nongovernmental relief agencies, healthcare professionals, and public health personnel on how to effectively center cultural competence in emergency response to infectious disease outbreaks. - Häftad, Engelska, 2019

The year is 1962. The moon has never looked closer. The Beatles haven''t invaded yet. Drive-ins are the best place to do anything but see a movie.
There are few places that have tighter races about keeping up with the Joneses than Caroline Hills in upstate New York.
Two teenagers, however, aren''t concerned with fitting in with the Technicolor upper crust. First is Paul, an aspiring writer used to living in the shadow of his golden boy brother. Second is Jenny, Paul''s new neighbor, who sees the rules and the reigning social food chain as an invitation to stir up trouble. In fact, she even gets good boy Paul to agree to scratch off ''do something bad'' from his bucket list.
So on July 4th, 1962, while everyone else is enjoying the fireworks at the annual fair, Jenny and Paul will break and enter into someone''s home. No big deal since the owner is away. Besides, the lake house is on the outskirts of town, making it the perfect spot for Paul to prove he''s a rebel after all. Jenny leaves with unanswered questions and Paul a souvenir in his blue jeans pocket. In the darkness, they hear someone else rowing across the lake headed where they just came from. Jenny swears she saw a hand lying over the side of the other boat.
The next morning, a classmate of Paul''s is found dead. Everyone else is at peace when the police charge an outsider with ending the popular cheerleader''s life. Paul and Jenny discover that the truth is much more insidious than anyone wants to believe and that this was not the killer''s first victim, not even close.
Paul isn''t sleeping and Jenny isn''t letting go. He wants justice, not revenge. To this, Jenny argues the only difference is his opinion. Of course, the murderer also knows that someone else is onto him, and even in Caroline Hills, what you know can get you killed.
