CONSENSUS and
COMPROMISE
"A Partnership to Conserve America's
Communities" was the name President Jimmy
Carter gave the first National Urban Policy when
he presented it to Congress in March 1978. Based
on the personal knowledge of the author, Yvonne
Scruggs-Leftwich, who was the executive director
of the policy process, this book analyzes the
actions of Carter, his Cabinet members, and the
professionals leading the process.
SOUND BITES of PROTEST
Urban issues and creative African American
leadership are addressed. As the media and the
internet continue to change the face of American
culture, political tomes and textbooks as primary
information sources are quickly becoming
outmoded. The solution here brings simple truths
to a new generation of readers who seek useful
information regarding politics, race, affirmative
action, justice, and gender.
WOMEN of DISTINCTION
Excerpt from Women of Distinction: Remarkable
in Works and Invincible in Character…
If in such a short time of greatly abridged
citizenship our women have accomplished so
much, and if many of those heroines mentioned
did develop such giant intellects during those
dark days of our history, may we not be 'the more
encouraged to make more diligent, protracted
and determined efforts in this brighter age?
