On the Road to Find Out: an MLS Journey begins with a crisis that eventually turns into inner exploration and world travel. Cherie Bell writes with humor and honesty of her decision to return to college after almost thirty years to work on a liberal studies degree in graduate school. Her intention was to focus on world religion and philosophy, but varied interests led her to courses that would take her around the world. She writes in detail about her journeys to India and to World War II sites in England and France. More poignantly, she reveals how liberal arts studies became a journey into the self and exploration of the mind and soul.
Cherie Bell writes with humor and grace about her teenage years as a Pentecostal Christian in the late 1970s. At first happy her chaotic family life would be tamed by church membership, the spunky adolescent with a mind of her own finds her parents' choice too strict. In time she befriends the new church family and joins the faith at age 15 after profound experiences in water baptism and the Holy Ghost. As she grows into an independent young woman in the 1980s, always curious about world religious philosophies, she begins a personal exploration of the soul and finds spirituality outside of religion. Each segment of her memoir is set off by old-time gospel hymns and contemporary Christian song titles as Ms. Bell writes as one who knows the Pentecostal experience firsthand yet does not argue her views today. Indeed she concludes everyone's relationship with God is a personal endeavor. Her engaging story leaves readers thinking about religious fundamentalism and its impact on the world today. A former award-winning journalist and columnist, Ms. Bell is a singer, songwriter, and music teacher in Dallas, where she lives with her husband.
div When it was published twenty-five years ago, Catharine MacKinnon’s pathbreaking work Sexual Harassment of Working Women had a major impact on the development of sexual harassment law. The U.S. Supreme Court accepted her theory of sexual harassment in 1986. Here MacKinnon collaborates with eminent authorities to appraise what has been accomplished in the field and what still needs to be done. An introductory essay by Reva Siegel considers how sexual harassment came to be regulated as sex discrimination. Contributors discuss how law can best address sexual harassment; the importance and definition of consent and unwelcomeness; issues of same-sex harassment; questions of institutional responsibility for sexual harassment in both employment and education settings; considerations of freedom of speech; effects of sexual harassment doctrine on gender and racial justice; and transnational approaches to the problem. An afterword by MacKinnon assesses the changes wrought by sexual harassment law in the past quarter century. /DIV
