What is Slavery?
What is slavery? It seems a simple enough question. Despite the long history of the institution and its widespread use around the globe, many people still largely associate slavery, outside of the biblical references in the Old Testament, to the enslavement of Africans in America, particularly the United States. Slavery proved to be essential to the creation of the young nation’s agricultural and industrial economies and profoundly shaped its political and cultural landscapes, even until today. What Is Slavery? focuses on the experience of enslaved black people in the United States from its early colonial period to the dawn of that destructive war that was as much about slavery as anything...
Jesus Inside
Inspired by God, Jesus Inside was written to provide a clearer view of the Bible. I cant count the number of times I've heard individualsyoung and old, educated and uneducatedsaying that they dont understand the Bible. They believe in Jesus Christ and know He is the begotten Son of God who died on the cross for our sins, but they dont know what that truly means. I pray that after reading Jesus Inside, all, including myself, will have a clearer understanding of the Bible so that our lights will shine so brightly we will have to go and share the Jesus inside of us to people all over the world. Receiving her doctoral degree in Theology in May of 2011 and traveling to various countries throughout the world, Dr. Brenda Stevenson felt compelled to write about the Jesus inside. Time and time again, she would hear people say, I dont understand the Bible. The desire of Dr. Stevensons heart is to give a miniature storytelling walk through of the Bible, in hopes that people will gain a better understanding and appreciation for the living Word, Jesus.
More Than Chattel
Gender was a decisive force in slave society. Slave men's experiences differed from those of slave women, who were exploited in both reproductive and productive capacities.

Telling Histories
The field of black women's history gained recognition as a legitimate field of study only late in the twentieth century. Collecting stories that are both deeply personal and powerfully political, Telling Histories compiles seventeen personal narratives by leading black women historians at various stages in their careers. Their essays illuminate how--first as graduate students and then as professional historians--they entered and navigated the realm of higher education, a world concerned with and dominated by whites and men. In distinct voices and from different vantage points, the personal histories revealed here also tell the story of the struggle to establish a new scholarly field. Black w...

Portraits of American Women
Until recently a "womanless" American history was the norm. But without a history of women we neglect gender dynamics, sex roles, and family relations--the very fundamentals of human interaction. Here 24 short essays locate the histories of women--from Pocahontas to Betty Friedan--and men together by period and provide a sense of their continuities through the whole gallery of the American past. 26 photos.
