Description:

Being curious, learning from all of our experiences, is one of our most pleasing traits as human beings. In this series we examine particular facets of ourselves and, with the aid of many classic authors, delve into characters and stories that not only entertain us, but inform us on how short stories can help us both deal and understand issues that touch and weave into our lives with the words and narratives of many wise talents. The evil stain of Racism blights much of humanity. Our own ambition to be seen as better than the rest can sometimes, without any evidence to the contrary, spill over into corrosive thoughts and actions based on colour, religion and culture. These stories examine and reveal much about this appalling travesty. 01 - Lessons From Literature - Racism - An Introduction 2 - The Scapegoat by Paul Laurence Dunbar 3 - Desiree's Baby by Kate Chopin 4 - The Stones of the Village by Alice Dunbar Nelson 5 - The Brothers by Louisa May Alcott 6 - Breaking the Color Line by Annie McCary 7 - The Octoroon's Revenge by Ruth D Todd 8 - The Hoodoo by Martha Gruening 9 - The Quadroons by Lydia Maria Child 10 - The Wife of His Youth by Charles W Chesnutt 11 - Talma Gordon by Pauline E Hopkins 12 - The City of Refuge by Rudolph Fisher Author - Paul Laurence Dunbar.
