Paperback. Condition: Good. After aspiring novelist Francis Scanlon is expelled from a prestigious creative writing program, he is forced to become a spin doctor at the Prock Chocolate Corporation while he awaits the publication of his masterpiece. But Francis's expectations of easy money and literary glory are thwarted by a paranoid boss, a charlatan writing coach, a snarky reporter, a sanctimonious public health crusader, an oily U.S. Senator, and a radical Muslim cleric with absolutely no sense of humor. As the story unfolds, Francis is swept up by market forces and transformed from Millennial hipster to globe-trotting corporate jet-setter. Corporate America is a smart, outrageously funny debut that deftly blends bone-dry satire, high ideals and bad taste without ever showing its seams.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Traditional narratives of black educational history suggest that African Americans offered a unified voice concerning Brown v. Board of Education. Jack Dougherty counters this interpretation, demonstrating that black activists engaged in multiple, overlapping, and often conflicting strategies to advance the race by gaining greater control over schools. Dougherty tells the story of black school reform movements in Milwaukee from the 1930s to the 1990s, highlighting the multiple perspectives within each generation. In profiles of four leading activists, he reveals how different generations redefined the meaning of the Brown decision over time to fit the historical conditions of their particular struggles. William Kelley worked to win teaching jobs for blacks and to resettle Southern black migrant children in the 1950s; Lloyd Barbee organized protests in support of integrated schools and the teaching of black history in the 1960s; and Marian McEvilly and Howard Fuller contested - in different ways - the politics of implementing desegregation in the 1970s, paving the way for the 1990s private school voucher movement. Dougherty concludes by contrasting three interpretations of the progress made in the fifty years since Brown, showing how historical perspective can shed light on contemporary debates over race and education reform.…
