IT BEGAN WITH ONE ABUSED CHILD . . . A Little Girl's Terror: By April of 1874, nine-year-old Mary Ellen Wilson had been beaten, cut, and burned by her foster mother for more than seven years. She had never once been allowed outdoors, her keeper locking her inside a tiny, dark closet while she was away. In the coldest New York winters, the child slept on a piece of carpet on the floor, only a threadbare quilt to warm her. A Caring Woman's Determination:When a concerned social worker named Etta Wheeler learned of the child's plight, she made appeals to the police, church, and the courts, but with no success. "Don't interfere between parent and child," they said. While others may have given up, Etta was determined to help little Mary Ellen. An Unlikely Hero For An Abused Child:In a desperate last resort, Etta went to Henry Bergh of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA). Would this man who was so kind to animals help? Surely the child had the same rights as a defenseless, abused creature. Bergh heard Etta's story, and the events that followed forever changed the course of child protection in America.Forgotten for over a century, Shelman and Lazoritz bring the story of "Little Mary Ellen" to light for the first time since it appeared in the pages of the New York Times, the Brooklyn Eagle, and the New York Tribune in 1874.

In New York City, in April of 1874, a most unusual event took place. A severely abused nine-year-old girl named Mary Ellen Wilson became the first child in America to be rescued from an abusive home. She had been beaten, burned, slashed with scissors, locked in a closet, and had never been outside of her tenement home in over 7 years. Thanks to the concern and dedication of a missionary named Etta Wheeler, the child was finally saved from her cruel captors. Henry Bergh's ASPCA - yes, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals - was instrumental in securing her rescue. When no other agencies would become involved, the ASPCA used its power and influence to not only save Mary Ellen, but to charter the first organization of its kind to prevent cruelty to children, the NYSPCC - the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. This book remains the only book that tells the dramatic story of Mary Ellen's life and rescue.

When Amber discovers boxes containing a lifetime of her mother’s journals and letters…She realizes she's been given a rare chance to unlock the enigma that had been her mother — but will her mother’s writings reveal the woman she remembers, or someone else altogether? Not the Mother I Remember tells the story of a sensitive girl raised by an exceptional and unconventional woman during a time of social change, gradually exposing the true nature of their relationship and their extraordinary bonds.The memoir skillfully weaves three points of view into one compelling story:1. The author’s life being raised by her mother, Jackie2. Jackie’s worldview as seen through her journals and letters3. The author as an adult, looking back and reflecting on their disparate ways of understanding life.JackieJackie was a bold, renegade woman of her time — a human potential movement pioneer, teacher, and author who believed in pursuing adventure, free love, and personal expression and didn’t care what anyone thought of her. This was before “feminism” became a household word, and during a time when women were still expected to stay home and take care of the kids.Because of her many accomplishments, many people admired her. But she had a dark, conflicted side and didn’t consider the emotional needs of her six children or the impact her actions had on them.As Jackie aged, she became a victim of Alzheimer’s disease. Amber became her caretaker, forced to watch this once vibrant, wild woman disappear into her illness.In Not the Mother I Remember, as Amber learns about her mother’s past from the journals and letters she left behind, she compares her mother’s personal reflections with her own memories of their life together, delves deep into their mother-daughter relationship, and arrives, eventually, to an understanding of their shared humanity.Critically AcclaimedA finalist in the 2015 Next Generation Indie Book Awards and the Sarton Women's Book Award, reviewers have called Not the Mother I Remember "fascinating and complicated,” and "honest, engaging, poignant, and beautifully, elegantly written” (scroll down for more reviews).Order your paperback, Kindle, or audiobook copy today and delve into this this excellent, multi-layered memoir exploring a fascinating and complicated mother-daughter relationship.

THIS BOOK SHOWCASES EXISTING PROBLEMS WITHIN THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY THAT ARE EXACERBATED BY ITS OVER-RELIANCE ON A VERY FLAWED CHILD SUPPORT SYSTEM.Bestselling author and social critic Demico Boothe shares his personal story of being wrongfully convicted of a crime, being sent to federal prison, and coming out of prison only to have to immediately deal with a hostile child support system that seemed intent on sending him back to prison over money he didn't have. Boothe shares how the current child support system poorly served him and his family and identifies and analyzes many areas within the system that need fixing. Boothe identifies racism, emotionalism, anti-male feminism, and profit motive as the main driving forces of the U.S. child support system, not the bettering of the welfare of children. Upon finding that unemployed and underemployed black fathers are disproportionately the recipients of the worst punitive actions that the system has to offer due to economic and racial reasons, Boothe decided to pen a book about it, hoping to shed some much-needed light on this issue.Important facts and in-book points of discussion about the U.S. Child Support System and The Black Family:Over 115 billion dollars is currently owed to the government in back child support and associated fees, mostly by poor black fathers.The U.S. Child Support System began formation in the early 1800's and was originally designated for white women only, and has since only been updated to incorporate more punitive enforcement actions that are now levied disproportionately against poor black fathers.The Child Support System has been instrumental in the much-talked-about breakdown and dwindling of the two-parent black family household since the late 1970's.The Child Support System prioritizes payments over parentage when it comes to fathers, while nearly 70% of all black children in the U.S. are raised in households headed by single women.The U.S. Child Support System actively serves as a form of probationary surveillance on poor fathers.The U.S. Child Support System is openly anti-family and anti-male.The American Feminist Movement - which started in the early 1800's as a white-women-only movement that sought to create more economic parity and equity between white men and women - is largely responsible for the anti-male slant within the U.S. Child Support System.The U.S. Child Support System helped create the false "Deadbeat Dad" stereotype that the mainstream media often only relegates to black men.The U.S. Child Support System helped create the "Bitter Baby Mama" syndrome in the black communityFederal and state governments reap multilevel economic profits via the U.S. Child Support System.Federal and state governments reap multilevel economic profits via the U.S. Child Support System.
