| black history month community service ideas: Dressed in Dreams Tanisha C. Ford, 2019-06-25 NOW OPTIONED BY Sony Pictures TV FOR A LIVE-ACTION SERIES ADAPTATION: produced by Freida Pinto and Gabrielle Union A perfect time to look at the ethos of black hair in America — and the perfect person to do it is Tanisha Ford —Changing America Everyone from the shopaholic to the clearance rack queen will see themselves in [Ford's] pages. —Essence Takes you not only into the closet, but the inner sanctum of an ordinary extraordinary Black girl who discovered herself through clothes. —Michaela Angela Davis, Image Activist and Writer [A] delightful style story. —The Philadelphia Inquirer From sneakers to leather jackets, a bold, witty, and deeply personal dive into Black America's closet In this highly engaging book, fashionista and pop culture expert Tanisha C. Ford investigates Afros and dashikis, go-go boots and hotpants of the sixties, hip hop's baggy jeans and bamboo earrings, and the #BlackLivesMatter-inspired hoodies of today. The history of these garments is deeply intertwined with Ford’s story as a black girl coming of age in a Midwestern rust belt city. She experimented with the Jheri curl; discovered how wearing the wrong color tennis shoes at the roller rink during the drug and gang wars of the 1980s could get you beaten; and rocked oversized, brightly colored jeans and Timberlands at an elite boarding school where the white upper crust wore conservative wool shift dresses. Dressed in Dreams is a story of desire, access, conformity, and black innovation that explains things like the importance of knockoff culture; the role of “ghetto fabulous” full-length furs and colorful leather in the 1990s; how black girls make magic out of a dollar store t-shirt, rhinestones, and airbrushed paint; and black parents' emphasis on dressing nice. Ford talks about the pain of seeing black style appropriated by the mainstream fashion industry and fashion’s power, especially in middle America. In this richly evocative narrative, she shares her lifelong fashion revolution—from figuring out her own personal style to discovering what makes Midwestern fashion a real thing too. |

| black history month community service ideas: Diversity Programming and Outreach for Academic Libraries Kathleen Hanna, Mindy Cooper, Robin Crumrin, 2011-06-24 This book outlines issues surrounding diversity among students, faculty, and staff and how one urban university library is working to embrace and celebrate the diversity found in its building, on campus, and in the local community. This book illustrates how universities are uniquely situated to engage students in discussions about diversity and how academic libraries in particular can facilitate and ease these discussions. A Diversity Council and the projects and programs it has developed have been instrumental in this work and may serve as an inspiration and launch pad for other libraries. Diversity Programming and Outreach for Academic Libraries details anecdotal experiences, and provides practical suggestions for developing diversity programs and forming collaborations with other campus units, regardless of size, staff, or focus of the academic library. - Written by three academic librarians currently active in university level diversity initiatives - Provides real-world examples of diversity programming and events for academic libraries - Indicates how to find commonalities in the range of diversity issues at universities internationally |

| black history month community service ideas: Educational Leadership Christa Boske, 2013-02-01 Educational Leadership: Building Bridges Among Ideas, Schools, and Nations breaks new ground by connecting many ideas to educational leadership that have traditionally been discussed as part of leaders’ contexts by connecting them and showing how international issues can unite scholars and educators in action. The book draws on the authors’ extensive experiences in U.S. public schools, research in the field of educational leadership, and programmatic practices to prepare school leaders to commit themselves to social justice. The book provides a forum for this important work in the ongoing conversation about equity and excellence in education, and the role(s) leadership can assume in building bridges among ideas, people, and educational organizations. Chapters center on creating spaces for vigorous dialogue. Authors call upon scholars and practitioners to reconsider their intent to empower those who live on the margins. The dynamic approaches discussed throughout the book urge school leaders, teachers, school community members, and those who prepare administrators to look within and build bridges between themselves and those they serve. |

| black history month community service ideas: Hip-Hop Culture in College Students' Lives Emery Petchauer, 2012-03-22 College campuses have become rich sites of hip-hop culture and knowledge production. Despite the attention that campus personnel and researchers have paid to student life, the field of higher education has often misunderstood the ways that hip-hop culture exists in college students’ lives. Based upon in-depth interviews, observations of underground hip-hop spaces, and the author’s own active roles in hop-hop communities, this book provides a rich portrait of how college students who create hip-hop—both male and female, and of multiple ethnicities—embody its principles and aesthetics on campuses across the United States. The book looks beyond rap music, school curricula, and urban adolescents to make the empirical argument that hip-hop has a deep cultural logic, habits of mind, and worldview components that students apply to teaching, learning, and living on campus. Hip-Hop Culture in College Students’ Lives provides critical insights for researchers and campus personnel working with college students, while pushing cultural observers to rethink the basic ways that people live hip-hop. |

| black history month community service ideas: Progressive Librarianship Durrani, Shiraz, 2016-11-25 Public spending is under threat and public libraries are suffering. At a time when libraries can play a critical role in supporting people facing difficult economic and social situations, the dominant conservative model of librarianship has nothing meaningful to say about the role and relevance of libraries. It offers more of the same, but no qualitative change so necessary today. It continues to maintain the myth that there is no alternative to its own policies and practices. There is thus an urgent need to alternative ideas and practices to address people’s needs. The progressive librarianship movement is taking up this challenge. It has also been active in Kenya and Britain but its work is not widely know. The Kenyan movement differed from the others in that it grew within the underground political movement in the 1980s - the December Twelve Movement/Mwakenya. Using original documents, this book records this hidden history. In the process, it examines key concepts such as the role of libraries and the relevance of service. Linking library work with the wider social and political concerns, the book explores issues such as politics of information, the role of activism and “neutrality” in library work. It offers an alternative approach to librarianship, to the training of librarians and to organisational change to make libraries more relevant to people’s lives. |

| black history month community service ideas: Facilitating Social Justice, Service Delivery, and Advocacy Through Multicultural Counseling Competencies Wilson, Keith B., Chao, Si-Yi, 2023-08-18 Many post-secondary institutions have added courses dealing with diversity-related topics in their curriculum over the last decade. Because many professionals will encounter people with disabilities or underrepresented groups in their daily vocations, either as peers or people seeking services, it is essential to understand the unique challenges these individuals face in society. Facilitating Social Justice, Service Delivery, and Advocacy Through Multicultural Counseling Competencies explores how social variables, intersectionality, and multicultural competencies are connected to one of the essential words in the diversity lexicon: advocacy. Each section underscores the importance of certain social variables and how one might be perceived and treated in the classroom, workplace, and interacting with community services. Covering topics such as disability competencies, trauma-informed counseling strategies, and race and identity, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for administrators and educators of both K-12 and higher education, librarians, students of higher education, social workers, health professionals, mental health counselors, guidance counselors, researchers, and academicians. |
| black history month community service ideas: Research Anthology on Service Learning and Community Engagement Teaching Practices Management Association, Information Resources, 2021-12-30 The need for more empathetic and community-focused students must begin with educators, as service-learning has begun to grow in popularity throughout the years. By implementing service and community aspects into the classroom at an early age, educators have a greater chance of influencing students and creating a new generation of service-minded individuals who care about their communities. Teachers must have the necessary skills and current information available to them to provide students with quality service learning and community engagement curricula. The Research Anthology on Service Learning and Community Engagement Teaching Practices provides a thorough investigation of the current trends, best practices, and challenges of teaching practices for service learning and community engagement. Using innovative research, it outlines the struggles, frameworks, and recommendations necessary for educators to engage students and provide them with a comprehensive education in service learning. Covering topics such as lesson planning, teacher education, and cultural humility, it is a crucial reference for educators, administrators, universities, lesson planners, researchers, academicians, and students. |

| black history month community service ideas: Kansas City’s Public Library: Empowering the Community for 150 Years Jason Roe, Matt Reeves, 2024-10-15 From the humble beginnings of a single bookcase in 1873, the Kansas City Public Library grew into a bedrock cultural institution with an ambitious mission of bolstering the people’s welfare, inspiring lifelong learning, and empowering citizens through knowledge. Across one and a half centuries, Kansas Citians ranging from Walt Disney to entrepreneur Ewing Kauffman, civil rights activist Alvin Sykes, Mayor Kay Barnes, and Congressman Emanuel Cleaver II, have sought out the Kansas City Public Library’s resources for professional inspiration, personal respite, and community uplift. Kansas City’s public library is an indispensable agent of community empowerment. On its 150th anniversary, its continuity of purpose—and its place at the heart of the city’s civic culture—is clearer than ever. Ever since its formative years in a wild western setting, and spanning decades of urbanization and social upheaval, the spectrum of the Library’s history is inseparable from that of Kansas City. Generations of patrons have sought out its resources for self-improvement, community uplift, or as a safe space to exist without obligation or payment. This meticulously researched book explores the Library’s record of achievement, the challenges it has weathered, the diverse backgrounds of its supporters, and, in some cases, its historical shortcomings. Today the Library enriches its community with innovative programming (recognized with a National Medal for Museum and Library Service from the Institute of Museum and Library Services), cutting-edge technology, and a commitment to serve all members of the community. |
| black history month community service ideas: Teaching to Difference? The Challenges and Opportunities of Diversity in the Classroom Nicole E. Johnson, Stacey-Ann Wilson, 2014-08-11 Teaching to Difference? The Challenges and Opportunities of Diversity in the Classroom offers a comparative perspective on the pedagogical and cultural issues in managing differences and diversity in the classroom. Using reflections and experiential analysis, the volume presents perspectives on the experiences of teaching and learning through differences of race/ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation and gender, language, special needs and geography, from contexts such as the United States, Canada, New Zealand and Israel. The reflections are presented from the viewpoint of minority teaching professionals and white educators teaching diverse student populations ranging from K-12 to college students and pre-service teachers. This volume provides a lens into the questions, reflections, and experiences of teachers and practitioners when they encounter difference in the classroom. The essays highlight the trepidation and frustration educators feel when they perceive themselves to be ill-prepared for diversity in their classrooms. However, there are also essays of triumph and success when teachers feel they have reached their students in a meaningful way. Additionally, through the experiences depicted, teachers describe their processes of connecting to students, how they determined what worked and did not work in their journey, and what they learned from the experience that continues to impact them. |

| black history month community service ideas: Religious Diversity in the Workplace Jawad Syed, Alain Klarsfeld, Faith Wambura Ngunjiri, Charmine E. J. Härtel, 2017-12-28 Employees bring their beliefs and religious values to work, and this can be a source of either positive performance or negative conflict. Social conflicts around religion impact more than societies and communities. They also impact organizations. 'Anti-religion' sentiments tend to be based on the perception that religion can be neatly separated from the 'more acceptable/palatable' spirituality, but this ignores the fact that - for most people - the two are intimately intertwined and inseparable. As religious identity is salient for a majority of the world's population, it is thus an important aspect of organizations - particularly those with a large and diverse body of employees. This handbook provides a timely and necessary analysis of religious diversity in organizations, investigating the role of national context, the intersections of religion with ethnicity and gender, and approaches to diversity management. |

| black history month community service ideas: The Uncharted Path from Clinic-based to Community-based Research Bonita Stanton, Jennifer Galbraith, Linda Kaljee, 2008 Community-based health-related research requires a reciprocal relationship between researchers and communities that differs from the relationships established in clinic-based health-related research. In the former not only is there a direct relationship with the individual (as there is in clinic-based research), but an equally important-and constantly changing-relationship with the community. Also, in community-based research, relationships change from that, in which individuals are 'subjects' of research, to the same individuals as 'participants' or 'partners' in the research process.These academic-community relationships are especially complex because frequently the community does not speak with a single voice and may have multiple different constituencies and perspectives. In addition, research teams comprised of several disciplines may be perceived as coming from unique 'academic communities', which of themselves may have different ways of envisioning community-based research. There is a recent call for more 'transciplinary' research, and yet there are limited empirical studies available which critically examine how disciplines work separately and in tangent to affect community-based research. This book will be used both by researchers and by those teaching upper-graduate level and graduate level health education. |

| black history month community service ideas: Police Services Paresh Wankhade, David Weir, 2015-06-11 This volume provides fresh insights and management understanding of the changing role of policing against the backdrop of massive cuts in public expenditure experienced and the changing landscape of policing. The challenges of funding, training, online-crimes and cultural transformation are now felt globally.

One of the highlight of this volume is to bring together scholarship using experts- academics, practitioners and professionals in the field, to each of the chosen topics. The chapters are based in the practical experiences of the authors and are written in a way that is accessible and suitable for a range of audiences. We are confident that this book will cater to a wider audience to inform policy and practice, both in the UK and internationally.

The contributors to this work are among the leading thinkers in policing and present important new insights into both the past and the way forward. It will be welcomed by all those convinced that radical new approaches are required across the public services. Bill Skelly, Deputy Chief Constable, Devon and Cornwall Police, UK At times it feels that the focus on leadership in the police service is all about what went wrong; the negative influences of a tightly-knit culture; and the almost inevitable rise of the technocrat. It is refreshing to read a book that seeks new insights into the positive influences of police leadership and offers the prospect of a more emotionally aware and spiritually rich approach as to how those insights may be practically employed for the benefit of all in the police family and the communities we serve. |
