Guidebook to Relative Strangers: Journeys Into Race, Motherhood, and HistoryAs a working mother and poet lecturer, Camille Dungy's livelihood depended on travel. She crisscrossed America and beyond with her daughter in tow, history shadowing their steps, always intensely aware of how they were perceived, not just as mother and child but as black women. From the San Francisco of settlers' dreams to the slave trading ports of Ghana, from snow white Maine to a festive yet threatening bonfire in the Virginia pinewoods, Dungy
As a working mother and poet-lecturer, Camille Dungy's livelihood depended on travel. She crisscrossed America and beyond with her daughter in tow, history shadowing their steps, always intensely aware of how they were perceived, not just as mother and child but as black women. From the San Francisco of settlers' dreams to the slave-trading ports of Ghana, from snow-white Maine to a festive yet threatening bonfire in the Virginia pinewoods, Dungy finds fear and trauma but also mercy, kindness, and community. Penetrating and generous, this is an essential guide for a troubled land.Binding Type: Paperback

Great Resource!
Format: Hardcover
The online resources are invaluable. The book came to me in a timely manner. This publisher does a great job at explaining legal principles and giving several examples of how the law is applied. I've enjoyed using it in my semester work thus far.

Digital textbook code already redeemed
Format: Hardcover
This book arrived unwrapped. Inside the textbook there was a return packing slip from Aug 2024 that someone forgot to remove. Unsurprisingly, upon checking I realized that someone already redeemed the digital textbook code that accompanies the book.
I was sent an opened textbook that someone purchased and stole the digital code before returning.
