In Global Hakka: Hakka Identity in the Remaking Jessieca Leo offers a needed update on Hakka history and a reassessment of Hakka identity in the global and transnational contexts. Leo gives fresh insights into concepts such as ethnicity, identity, Han, Chineseness, overseas Chinese, and migration in relation to Hakka identity. Globalization, transnationalism, deterritorialization and migration drive the rapid transformation and reformation of Hakka identity to the point of no return. Dehakkalization through cultural adaptation or genetic transfer has created an elastic identity in the global Hakka and different kinds of Hakka communities around the world. Jessieca Leo convincingly shows that...

Oh sweet Tristan, Its so simple. It seems as though your grip on Jessie is vanishing. But lets be honest, we both knew that you were incapable of winning this game. I will give you credit for one thing though. Your ability to sit on the sidelines is impeccable. Like the fleeting sands in an hour glass pouring through your fingertips, you are losing her. But dont you worry my dear Ive been salivating to commandeer the reigns. Time is escaping Tristan, but once Ive gained full control, my influence will overwhelm her. ----Jezebel
Rural communities across the United States are experiencing a rapid increase in the number of immigrant students. While the number of culturally and linguistically diverse students continues to grow within midwestern states, the demographics of teachers remain white, female, and monolingual. Often teachers have little to no training working with students and their families whose backgrounds differ from their own. Thus, there is a great urgency for teachers to develop culturally competent teaching practices that address the needs of all students. The purpose of this year-long, school-based narrative inquiry was to examine the beliefs, attitudes, and practices of rural educators as they descri...
This book is about the times and the people who lived during World War II. About life in small town mid-America: the schoolhouse, the grocery stores, the barber shop, the taverns, and the characters. Particularly, it is about the people and what life was like during the war. Like the soldiers who fought in WWII, the people who grew up then are also slipping away, and these are their stories. Those times may well mark the zenith of American greatness, not only politically and economically, but also spiritually. We had both religious and patriotic spirituality, a nation populated with churches, a nation that had sent its young men around the world twice in the twentieth century, in the name of freedom for others. It was a nation of goodness, of strong families, a time we are not likely to ever see again. This book is about that time, stories that should be told, stories our children and grandchildren need to hear.
