Katie's Bit and Pieces: A Family Legacy
A book that gives you the legacy of one of Tennessee's favorite women. It gives you insight into the story that has never before been told of what hard work and education delivers. Katie White, an amazing woman with an incredible story, has written an outstanding collection of short essays, magazine articles, and poetry that reflect bits and pieces of her life story. As each story unfolds, a picture is painted in your mind and messages of humor, hope, motivation, love and faith leave you feeling satisfied, awe-inspired and wanting more. The granddaughter of a slave and daughter of a sharecropper, Katie White, born in 1932, grew up on a farm near Franklin Tennessee. The second of nine children, she was guided by strong hard-working parents, influenced by the power of faith, and motivated to succeed in life through education. After receiving a doctorate degree, Katie returned to her alma mater, Tennessee State University, and became a well-respected professor, writer, and leader. During this period, she met and married Dr. Joseph White, a decorated Tuskegee pilot during World War II, a mother to two daughters. A fascinating life narrative and a book to be treasured.

The Black Family Reunion Cookbook
The Black Family Reunion Celebrations, organized by The National Council of Negro Women and held in seven cities across America every summer, celebrate and preserve the values, traditions, and strengths of the African-American family. Inspired by these festivals, The Black Family Reunion Cookbook contains more than 250 recipes from home kitchens across America, seasoned with warm memories and “homemade love.” Including personal reminiscences from celebrities such as Natalie Cole, Wilma Rudolph, Patti LaBelle, and Spelman College President Johnnetta Cole, this unique collection reflects the local, national, and international heritage of the Black community. It offers dishes for every occasion and every taste, from African-inspired Mustard Greens with Peanut Sauce to down-home Family Famous Chicken and Dumplings, from a traditional gumbo to sophisticated Sweet Potato Smoked Turkey Bisque, and, in honor of the council's founder, Mary McLeod Bethune, her own recipe for her celebrated Sweet Potato Pie.
Brothers and Sisters
The 1950s are arguably the watershed era in the civil rights movement with the landmark Supreme Court decision of Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, the Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955, and the desegregation of Little Rock (Arkansas) High School in 1957. It was during this period--1955 to be exact--that sociologist Alfred M. Lee published his seminal work Fraternities without Brotherhood: A Study of Prejudice on the American Campus. Lee's book was the first and last book to explore diversity within college fraternal groups. More than fifty years later, Craig L. Torbenson and Gregory S.

It also brings a wide range of scholarly approaches to the inquiry of diversity within college fraternities and sororities. It explores not only from whence these groups have come but where they are currently situated and what issues arise as they progress.
Black Greek-Letter Organizations in the 21st Century
“A masterpiece of multidisciplinary scholarship that clearly demonstrates the contemporary relevance of black fraternities and sororities.” —Hasan Kwame Jeffries, author of Bloody Lowndes During the twentieth century, black Greek-Letter organizations (BGLOs) united college students dedicated to excellence, fostered kinship, and uplifted African Americans. Members of these organizations include remarkable and influential individuals such as Martin Luther King Jr., Congresswoman Barbara Jordan, novelist Toni Morrison, and Wall Street pioneer Reginald F. Lewis. Despite the profound influence of these groups, many now question the continuing relevance of BGLOs, arguing that their golden ag...
