The abolition movement in the United States―the fight against slavery―likely would have been less powerful and effective without the women of the movement. Yet, even in this fight for freedom, women were often sidelined by their male counterparts. Still, certain mission-driven American women were tenacious in their quest to free the enslaved peoples on American soil. This important book introduces readers to the significant groups and individuals who spoke out and put their lives at risk to halt American slavery. Fact boxes, sidebars, and historical images aid in supporting key curricular content.

Through carefully researched, accessible text, they’ll learn about groups of women and individuals who supported colonial independence, proving themselves invaluable in the war effort. Sidebars, fact boxes, and historical images add more memorable information about this crucial curricular topic.

書系名稱：East-West Cultural Encounters in Literature & Cultural StudiesTHE TAO OF S is an engaging study of American racialization of Chinese and Asians, Asian American writing, and contemporary Chinese cultural production, stretching from the nineteenth century to the present. Sheng-mei Ma examines the work of nineteenth-century “Sinophobic” American writers, such as Bret Harte, Jack London, and Frank Norris, and twentieth-century “Sinophiliac” authors, such as John Steinbeck and Philip K. Dick, as well as the movies Crazy Rich Asians and Disney’s Mulan and a host of contemporary Chinese authors, to illuminate how cultural stereotypes have swung from fearmongering to an overcompensating exultation of everything Asian. Within this framework Ma employs the Taoist principle of yin and yang to illuminate how roles of the once-dominant American hegemony—the yang—and the once-declining Asian civilization—the yin—are now, in the twenty-first century, turned upside down as China rises to writ
