Taking Care of Mother: An Age of Transition is an everyday guide to being a caregiver to an elderly person, and in this case, it is the authors mother. Over the period of a few years, she chronicles her mothers need for a caregiver at various stages of her declining health. As this was a new experience for the daughter, she began keeping a journal of lessons learned and resources used as she fulfilled the role of her mothers caregiver. Not every situation is the same, but there are many things that are basic when one becomes a caregiver to another. Often, the time comes and little planning has been done. This guide to the kinds of resources available (legal, financial, medical, etc.) is a valuable start to becoming a caregiver and can help in planning for the caregivers own future needs.

Lone Star Suburbs

How is it that nearly 90 percent of the Texan population currently lives in metropolitan regions, but many Texans still embrace and promote a vision of their state’s nineteenth-century rural identity? This is one of the questions the editors and contributors to Lone Star Suburbs confront. One answer, they contend, may be the long shadow cast by a Texas myth that has served the dominant culture while marginalizing those on the fringes. Another may be the criticism suburbia has endured for undermining the very romantic individuality that the Texas myth celebrates. From the 1950s to the present, cultural critics have derided suburbs as landscapes of sameness and conformity. Only recently have...

Blacks in East Texas History

Founded in 1962, the East Texas Historical Journal began accepting articles on African American history at a time when most scholarly journals considered the topic out of the mainstream, at best. Since that beginning, the journal has published some forty articles in the field. Now, Bruce A. Glasrud and Archie P. McDonald have gathered a collection of some of the best articles on black history from the East Texas Historical Journal; their samplings span the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and cover the principal themes and topics of African American history in the eastern portion of the Lone Star State. The book concludes with a listing of all articles on African American history from the East Texas Historical Journal. Blacks in East Texas History will enlighten and inform students and scholars of regional and African American history, as well as those interested in the trials and progress of African Americans in the American South and Southwest.

Don't Let It Get You Down

A powerful and provocative collection of essays that offers poignant reflections on living between society' s most charged, politicized, and intractably polar spaces— between black and white, rich and poor, thin and fat.Savala Nolan knows what it means to live in the in-between. Descended from a Black and Mexican father and a white mother, Nolan' s mixed-race identity is obvious, for better and worse. At her mother' s encouragement, she began her first diet at the age of three and has been both fat and painfully thin throughout her life. She has experienced both the discomfort of generational poverty and the ease of wealth and privilege.It is these liminal spaces— of race, class, and body type— that the essays in Don' t Let It Get You Down excavate, presenting a clear and nuanced understanding of our society' s most intractable points of tension. The twelve essays that comprise this collection are rich with unforgettable anecdotes and are as humorous and as full of Nolan' s appetites as they are of anxieties. Over and over again, Nolan reminds us that our true identities are often most authentically lived not in the black and white, but in the grey of the in-between.
