Classroom Calypso: Giving Voice to the Voiceless (Counterpoints, Studies in the Postmodern Theory of Education)
What happens when teachers "relinquish the authority of truth providers"? Ninth grader Sasha Pringle, one of the student voices in Classroom Calypso, asserts that such a self-effacing posture empowers students by "releasing the writer within," thereby fostering a critical, creative, and reflective disposition. Winthrop R. Holder re-represents students not as marginalized beings merely absorbing information but as subjects taking center stage and inscribing themselves into history. On their literary pilgrimage seeking self-knowledge, students, employing tale-telling, recast their classroom as a symposium—a place where popular culture orchestrates the discourse. This is an invaluable book for educators, parents, and anyone interested in understanding and facilitating the voices of urban youth..

HIV/AIDS Terror Awakens the Voiceless Orphan
The book's title HIV/AIDS Terror Awakens the Voiceless Orphan speaks volumes Allow me to take an optimistic premise of dissecting the title piece by piece. Why HIV/AIDS? It is a global atrocity that has allowed itself to manifest as a massive epidemic in the Sub-Saharan Africa, and ruthlessly in the sanctions-ridden Zimbabwe! "Who is the voiceless? It is the traumatized "orphaned Negro child" at the mercy of sanctions from the industrialized world. HIV/AIDS is a death sentence for Africa while in the industrialized world it is not! Medicines are available, unlike in Africa where the price to obtain them is extremely expensive and prohibitive.

The case of Zimbabwe's man-made abject poverty through sanctions needs immediate attention. Orphans need food as they grieve their dead parent(s). How can they eat when economic sanctions cripple Zimbabwe's infrastructure in every which way but loose? The recipe of HIV/AIDS plus sanctions is demonic. It deprives children's brain development across the life-span? Everything that young children hear, see, feel, and smell contributes to healthy brain growth and development. Today, all they feel is pain, isolation, helplessness, despair, hopelessness, and that nobody cares! All what they smell is the endless "staple sadza smell" from neighbors' homes cooking in volumes for funeral attendees day in and day out! There is every reason for Africa to mourn. HIV/AIDS "terror" is on Mother Africa's doorstep! Think of it, 70% of Africa is facing the wrath of AIDS.

As for Zimbabwe and its burdensome economic sanctions, what a heart-wrecking cocktail that destroys humanity! The HIV/AIDS menace devours Africa's offspring minute by minute. Yes, 1 person in every 5 people in Africa will die of HIV/AIDS.

This book discusses global HIV/AIDS stigma, Africa's predicament, Zimbabwe's orphans' plight, and the pain of the underclass in both Africa and USA..

From the supplier: Journalists should act in the interest of its readers, who are powerless to effect changes by themselves. As such, journalists should take it upon themselves to act as the medium by which the people can voice out their problems and opinions. The public also has the right to information, especially if it pertains to its own interests. Journalists should therefore embark on a massive information campaign to serve the needs of the public.
