Hardback. Condition: Good. They shoot the white girl first. With the rest they can take their time. So begins Toni Morrison's Paradise, which opens with a horrifying scene of mass violence and chronicles its genesis in an all-black small town in rural Oklahoma. Founded by the descendants of freed slaves and survivors in exodus from a hostile world, the patriarchal community of Ruby is built on righteousness, rigidly enforced moral law, and fear. But seventeen miles away, another group of exiles has gathered in a promised land of their own. And it is upon these women in flight from death and despair that nine male citizens of Ruby will lay their pain, their terror, and their murderous rage.

Hardback. Condition: Good. Remember is a unique pictorial and narrative journey that introduces children to a watershed period in American history and its relevance to us today. This beautiful 80-page hardcover picture book is a Coretta Scott King Award winner. Toni Morrison collected a treasure chest of archival photographs that depict the historical events surrounding school desegregation. These unforgettable images serve as the inspiration for Ms. Morrison's text--a fictional, approachable version of the dialogue and emotions of the children who lived during the era of "separate but equal" schooling. Includes an introduction from Toni Morrison, a chronology of key events in Civil Rights and school integration history, and photo notes that describe the actual date, location, and content of each picture As Booklist said: "The photos are electrifying. Beautifully reproduced in sepia prints, the archival images humanize the politics of the Civil Rights movement." "The provocative, candid images and conversational text should spark questions and discussion, a respect for past sacrifices, and inspiration for facing future challenges," commented School Library Journal. &nbsp.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Co-edited and introduced by Toni Morrison, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, Birth of a Nation'hood elucidates as never before the grim miasma of the O.J.
