Based on a qualitative research study of gay and lesbian teachers, Unmasking Identities explores how these educators negotiated their gay and teacher identities in a climate where the two have historically been pitted against each other. This process of integrating their sexual identities with their roles as teachers was impelled and impeded by several factors, including community atmosphere, school culture, and family status. Janna M. Jackson demonstrates that these gay and lesbian teachers made direct and indirect connections between their experiences related to being gay or lesbian and their classroom practices of creating safety, promoting social justice, and building on students' understandings. This unique book explores what happens when identities are oppressed and suppressed and the consequences when they finally break free. Unmasking Identities provides theoretical understandings and practical advice for teachers, administrators, and policymakers who are concerned about gay and lesbian issues. This engaging text will appeal to those interested in gender studies and issues in education. Book jacket.

Making My Identity deals with personal matters hidden behind a mask in order to hide my true identity. The mask was worn to protect the flaws that I chose to conceal. As I matured in Christ, I gained a sense of identity through the Word of God. This book identifies many insecurities connected to biblical outcomes. It is my honor to share them so that freedom can take place in someone else’s life. When we reveal our imperfections, we free ourselves and gain a deeper sense of connection not only with ourselves but also with others.

From looking outwardly to please others to looking inwardly to define ourselves, we constantly try to cultivate or construct our identities. But guided by the whims of culture or the faulty advice of tradition, we often find identity collapses when life falls apart or change threatens that fragile structure. Is it possible to discover an identity bolstered with unassailable confidence, strengthened for the challenges of life rather than destroyed by them, and free from the whims of cultural pressure? Yes! It is an identity received, not achieved—an identity established in the gospel. In Stop Trying, Cary Schmidt’s storytelling creates compelling scenes in which you’ll see yourself and your self. You’ll understand why defining your identity outside of Jesus Christ is ultimately fragile, hollow, and unsatisfying. And you'll discover that your truest and most fulfilling identity is a byproduct of a relationship that changes everything.

Some of the most interesting and debated entities in the Bible are the Sons of GOD in the sixth chapter of the book of Genesis. I certainly agree they are interesting and the subject of much debate, but I believe they are more than that. I believe who and what they are can have a great effect upon one's understanding of the rest of the Bible. I understand that who and what these entities are is not a salvation issue, but it is an extremely important one. The devil is the great deceiver (John 8:44). It is his goal to deceive every man, woman and child he can. I believe having the incorrect understanding of these Sons of GOD can make people vulnerable to one of his greatest deceptions. That is why I wrote this book. As I said, this is a hotly debated subject, but I do not think the Bible is unclear about their identity. The issue is... Well, you'll need to read the book for that. I hope you are blessed by reading it.

This volume addresses the entanglement between archaeology, imperialism, colonialism, capitalism, and war. Popular sentiment in the West has tended to embrace the adventure rather than ponder the legacy of archaeological explorers; allegations by imperial powers of "discovering" archaeological sites or "saving" world heritage from neglect or destruction have often provided the pretext for expanding political influence. Consequently, citizens have often fallen victim to the imperial war machine, seeing their lands confiscated, their artifacts looted, and the ancient remains in their midst commercialized. Spanning the globe with case studies from East Asia, Siberia, Australia, North and South America, Europe, and Africa, sixteen contributions written by archaeologists, art historians, and historians from four continents offer unusual breadth and depth in the assessment of various claims to patrimonial heritage, contextualized by the imperial and colonial ventures of the last two centuries and their postcolonial legacy.
