This book about Somerset County and the surrounding region traces the course of racism and society in a tidewater county in Maryland's Chesapeake Bay country from 1850 to the present. Tidewater Somerset provides us with a palette for understanding racism and the evolution of racial ideas often overlooked by scholars. The book examines specific influences and trends, as well as political and cultural developments, which have played out at the micro-level in Maryland over time, and which might test or call into question assumptions about the nature of race relations on the national level.

Leaping Over The Ocean is a deliberate attempt to include/intrude specific Black women into existing narratives on race, gender and travel. My focus here is on the lives and specific motivations that pushed and pulled four Black women across the Atlantic Ocean before and into the turn of the 20th century. That Sarah Mar'gru Kinson Green, Anna Julia Cooper, Sarah Parker Remond and Mary Church Terrell were all born between the early 1830's and 1863 renders their travels all the more worthy of note. In an era when women across the globe were expected or required to remain tethered to hearth and home, three of this quartet found her own reasons to travel across the Atlantic Ocean more than one time. In doing so Mar'gru, Anna Julia, Sarah and Mary each provide insight into the many ways that the institution of slavery and new found freedom/s unfolded in the lives of Black women. It is from this group that we hear some of the earliest Black female interrogation of race and gender issues both at home and abroad. With apparent fearlessness each found her own reasons to step aboard a steamship and with deliberation move well beyond the boundaries of her known world.

This book provides explanations for a broader audience as to what the obstacles are to the peace process and offers thoughtful perspectives that could help further the peace initiative. It analyzes factors that transcend the negotiations process, mostly relying on a broad sociological analysis. Many analysts and policy makers treated the conflict as a regular negotiation process and as such focused their analysis in the direction of how this negotiation could work. Others, treated the conflict and the interaction between Palestinians and Israelis as being one between two different narratives that could either be reconciled or not. Some argued that the Palestinians want to put an end to the State of Israel and claim all of historical Palestine for themselves, while others believe Israelis want to impose their sovereignty over the same territory via settlement expansion, claiming that the land legitimately and historically belongs to the Jewish people. However, the history of the peace process shows that the sides have been very close to an agreement. This book searches for nuanced solutions towards progress. Thus, the political solutions seek alternatives to a Palestinian state seeking peace with Israel, which includes not only peace between the parties but also the need to provide order and normalcy for the Palestinians. It analyzes the idea of a Palestinian/Jordanian confederacy, along with its advantages and disadvantages. Likewise, it analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of an Israeli unilateral withdrawal from most of the West Bank. The book also explores the chances that the Palestinian security establishment, that has worked together with the Israeli security establishment for years, could generate the leadership necessary to restore order to Palestinian society.
