Die überraschende Migrationsreise des Bagicha Singh und die Suche nach den eigenen Wurzeln Er ist Sohn des Sikh-Priesters, 400-Meter-Läufer und schließlich Migrant. 1979 kehrt Bagicha Singh seiner Heimat den Rücken und reist mit einem (Dick-)Kopf voller Träume auf dem langen, turbulenten Landweg von Indien nach Deutschland. Es ist das Jahr, in dem die Sowjetunion in Afghanistan einmarschiert und die Islamische Revolution im Iran tobt. Ein Jahr, dessen Nachwirkungen die Welt bis heute prägen. Mehr als 40 Jahre später erzählt seine Tochter von Bagichas abenteuerlicher Reise. Es entsteht ein berührender Text über Herkunft, Zeitgeschichte und die Bedeutung von Migration. 'Erst letztens antwortete mein Vater auf die Frage, was er denn mittlerweile als seine Heimat ansehe: 'Heimat ist das Dorf, wo ich als Kind in den Straßen gespielt habe und wo mein Vater Priester war.' Ein authentischer und origineller Beitrag zum Thema Migration trifft Zeitgeschichte und Hintergründe zu Afghanistan, Iran, Türkei, Bulgarien, das ehemalige Jugoslawien, DDR und BRD Mehr als ein Viertel der deutschen Bevölkerung hat einen Migrationshintergrund. Sie alle bringen ihre eigene und doch miteinander verknüpfte Migrationsgeschichte mit - diese außergewöhnliche Familiengeschichte ist eine davon. Ein Teil des Erlöses geht an ein gemeinnütziges Hilfswerk für Kinder in Indien Von Ost nach West: Bagicha Singh folgt dem Versprechen eines besseren Lebens im Westen. Seine Reiseroute führt durch Länder geprägt von Revolution, Putsch und Kommunismus und endet, wo er eigentlich nie hinwollte: in Deutschland. "Ich freue mich so, dass diese Geschichten endlich erzählt werden, denn es sind unsere Geschichten und damit meine ich Geschichten über die Gesamtheit der Erfahrung in Deutschland zu leben." (Mithu Sanyal, Autorin des Spiegel Bestsellers Identitti) "Ich mag den Schreibstil sehr, die Art, kleine Dinge so spannend zu beschreiben, dass man das Gefühl hat, man war dabei und hat selber auf dem Karton gelegen und den kalten Boden nicht mehr gespürt." (Sonja Cópi¿, Sensitivity Reading des Jugoslawien Kapitels) "Das Buch ist eine farbenfrohe Geschichte voller Humor und Lebensfreude - und ein großartiges Manifest über die Fähigkeit der Menschen, sich über alle Grenzen und Unterschiede hinweg zu begegnen." (Helen Winter, Testleserin)

Healing & Understanding
Format: Paperback
We are living in a slave master's land (was the Indians..). Hundreds of years of slavery, mental torture and degradation and then "freed." No therapy. No understanding, not even patience. To listen to Dr DeGruy's youtube videos was so enlightening to me. Sorrow, but understanding and then JOY. I didn't understand the anger, towards myself or others. Now, I can see where so much pain has come from. I can show compassion and love towards myself and others. Whatever programming I had, has been deleted--destroyed. I look back with pride, hurt, and know that I, myself, can heal. What a blessing this woman has brought us! Thank you Dr. Joy DeGruy!

Why do black people . . .
Format: Hardcover
I purchased this book because I had many questions I wanted answered. Most of them were questions of "Why?". My biggest question was why we as black people have so many unhealthy habits in how we treat each other. As a young African American male who was raised by his mother in a predominantly white suburban area, I wanted to know why, when I encountered other black youth in more urban areas, they would tell me I "talk white." What is "talking white?" Basically, talking white means I was talking like I have an education. Why do so many members of the black community (those without an education) reject me for valuing education? Why is it that when one black person fidns a way out of the ghetto, it seems the whole neighborhood, church included, condems that person for leaving "his/her people" and wanting to live in the suburbs with the whites? Why don't we support one-another in this society that has always held us from achieving our full potential? I wanted to learn why we seem to have no clue of who we are, and so many of us, young and old, strive to "prove" we are "black enough." So talking a certain way makes us black? Or is it eating certain foods that makes us "black"? Listening to only certain kinds of music? We lack a firm sense of cultural identity. We take rebellious pride in being at the bottom, and equate success with "whiteness." We denounce the achievements of any black person and ostracize him from the community. We work to pressure our own to stay at the bottom. In this very interesting book, the author, Dr. Joy Degruy Leary, proposes a number of explanations for why the African American community has developed these and other unhealthy cultural habits. Leary examines this very real "crabs in the barrel" mentality, as well as many other self-destructive habits which plague the black community. Leary establishes a diagnoses, and calls it Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome. Leary presents a very strong argument that the behaviors are all symptoms that have been passed down through the generations of African American people from the dawn of the trans-atlantic slave trade to today. Leary uses her own observations to support her theory of Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome. This book is a very thoughtful read. The reason I give this work only four stars is because I truly feel that Leary's argument would have been much more affirmed and effective if she had included a visual timeline to help the reader to better understand the timeframes and chain of events in history discussed in the book. The argument also would have been more effective if the author spent more time on each point. At times it seems she's just getting started before summarizing all that was just said and moving on. Scholarly sources are cited and research is used, but the book does not explore any one study or statistic in great depth. It is a fast read.

America's Biggest Lie
African Americans have been brutalized beyond imagination. Then told that they were the ones that were less than human. It boggles the mind. The whites beat, burned, skinned, lynched, mutilated and murdered African Americans at will. And these same whites believe (to this day) that this is their god given right. Even worst was the emotional and intellectual scars left from the lies that were told. If I didn't see the consequence of this everyday, I would think someone was lying to me: Some kind of Cosmic joke. The white criminals are the heroes and the African victims are the villains. This cannot actually be real. But it is. Whites stripped the Africans of their names, religions, dignity, culture and their humanity. Then called them less than human. This slight of hand is beyond comprehension. The funniest part is when I hear Whites yell to blacks "go back to Africa." This is tantamount to kidnapping someone, tying them up, putting them in your basement then yelling at them to get out of your house. Insane. This has been going on for 400 years. Wow. And America thinks it the moral leader of the free world. I have to pinch myself. This has to be a dream.... or a nightmare. The book opened my eyes.

I have to step up as a parent..
Format: Hardcover
The book is a little bigger than what I realized. I must not have paid a attention to that because I did a quick buy. But thats not a bad thing it is a really nice coffee table book the pictures are great. I skimmed the book and it has some wonderful information. I wanted to have something to catch the attention of my GenAlpha son so he can learn about our history the school did a horrible job this year with learning Black history which is American history. Plan to get the study guide to help me talk about this with my son. Given the time we are living in I need to do better with informing and guiding him with facts. Because of my school and parents I learned a some of this growing up but the schools are barely teaching anything past MLK, Malcolm X or Harriet Tubman!
