"With job opportunities in decline for youth with no postsecondary degree, and college completion rates especially for students of color stagnating, a high school diploma is no longer enough. To solve this large-scale global problem. High school must be completely redesigned and reinvented providing all students real opportunity with both equity and excellence. P-TECH (Pathways in Technology Early College High School) has done just that by combining public high schools and community colleges in partnership with employers, providing both opportunity and support for all students, regardless of income, race or any screen for admission. Unlike many school models, this innovative and effective approach has spread across the US and around the world, eliminating barriers to replication by engaging all stakeholders. The first P-TECH, opened in a low-income Brooklyn neighborhood, across from a public housing project, and served 100% students of color. It has become the model for school reform across over a dozen US states and nearly twenty countries. Praised by President Obama, governors in red and blue states, and heads of nations, its story is told in this book through the personal stories of students who have destroyed the myths about which students can succeed. Their stories demonstrate that all students, if given the opportunity and support, can reach great heights in high school, college, and career"--

Women who struggle to accept their distinct strengths for what they are--gifts to the world--suffer for it. The church and society suffer with them. Jo Saxton invites women to discover (or rediscover) the gifts and talents that God has vested in us, and more important, the calling for each of us to seek first the kingdom of God where we are.

This book argues that the policies designed to address inequalities in college access are failing to address underlying issues of inequality. Breaking Through the Access Barrier introduces a groundbreaking new theory—academic capital formation (ACF)—to promote improvement in academic preparation, college information, and student aid.

The 5th Lap is about breaking barriers to achieve short term and long term goals. This could apply to everyday life. Manuel Ruiz, against all odds achieved the ultimate American Dream. He came to this country without knowing the language and lived at the time in the gang-infested streets of North Hills only with his older brother. His parents lived in Mexico City. Manuel Ruiz enrolled in High School as a 17-year-old. He graduated high school within three years with a 4.0 grade point average and also became the 7th best High School runner in the country when he ran 8 minutes 55 seconds for two miles at the Arcadia track and field invitational in April, 2003. He achieved this by also having to work to support himself to eat and pay rent. He ran for Cal State Northridge on a full athletic scholarship where in 2007 he graduated with Honors. Manuel Ruiz, with his strong work ethic, dedication, consistency and determination was able to run his 8 minutes and 55 seconds in the two-mile by breaking the 5th lap barrier. I always told him the 5th lap was the key in running a two-mile very well. The 5th lap wasn't the only barrier he broke to achieve the ultimate American dream.

In C. L. R. James's classic Beyond a Boundary, the sport is cricket and the scene is the colonial West Indies. Always eloquent and provocative, James--the "black Plato," (as coined by the London Times)--shows us how, in the rituals of performance and conflict on the field, we are watching not just prowess but politics and psychology at play. Part memoir of a boyhood in a black colony (by one of the founding fathers of African nationalism), part passionate celebration of an unusual and unexpected game, Beyond a Boundary raises, in a warm and witty voice, serious questions about race, class, politics, and the facts of colonial oppression. Originally published in England in 1963 and in the United States twenty years later (Pantheon, 1983), this second American edition brings back into print this prophetic statement on race and sport in society.
