A Different Mirror for Young People
The groundbreaking multicultural history of America, adapted for younger readers, now in a revised and updated edition with 100 pages of new material. "An excellent way to include multi-ethnic materials in the classroom as a way to ensure that your students see their unique identities reflected in their coursework." --Skipping Stones In Ronald Takaki's multicultural masterwork, the story of America includes the Native, African, Irish, Jewish, Asian, and Latino people--and many more--who made America their home, and who often fought for rights now enjoyed by all. A Different Mirror for Young People is widely hailed as the most important resource to "teach [Americans] to value the nation's inescapable diversity" (New York Times Book Review) and has been adopted into middle and high school curricula around the country. With a new chapter and revisions throughout, University of Illinois professor A. Naomi Paik brings this "brilliant revisionist history" (Publishers Weekly) into the 21st century. The new material examines growing inequality in the U.S., the intensifying War on Terror that further targets and marginalizes immigrants, and, in the uplifting spirit of the original book, the emergence of social movements including land and water protections and migrant justice movements. Drawing on Takaki's vast array of primary sources, and staying true to his own words whenever possible, A Different Mirror for Young People brings ethnic history alive through the words of people, including teenagers, who recorded their experiences in letters, diaries, and poems. Like Howard Zinn's A People's History, another title in the For Young People series, Takaki's A Different Mirror offers a rich and rewarding "people's view" perspective on the American story. "The 'mirror' that Ronald Takaki holds up to the United States reflects a multicultural history of oppression and exploitation, but also struggle, solidarity, and community. In the most profound sense, this is a people's history of our country. Takaki shows what has torn us apart, yet what knits us together." --Bill Bigelow, curriculum editor, Rethinking Schools, and co-director, Zinn Education Project

The Courage of Two
We know about America's Founding Fathers but what about its Founding Mothers? It's the mid-1600s before the U.S. became a country. English Puritans are seeking refuge from religious persecution by sailing to the New World. There, in the wilderness of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, Anne Hutchinson uses her vast knowledge of the Bible to "preach" to women in her own home. But the elders don't approve of Anne's meetings and her outspokenness. She is accused of heresy and put on trial. Standing her ground, Anne is banished from the colony. Her devoted student, supporter, and friend, Mary Dyer, follows Anne and her family to the even more primitive colony of Rhode Island. In time, Mary spends several years in England, where she learns about Quakerism. Upon her return home, she joins her fellow Quakers in challenging the cruel anti-Quaker laws of Massachusetts. Their convictions severely tested yet sustained by their friendship, Anne and Mary find the courage to stand up and speak out for their beliefs-even at the risk of their liberty and their very lives.
