Unafraid of the Dark: A Memoir 在线电子书 图书描述

Amazon.com In elegant, passionate prose, Rosemary L. Bray uses her personal history to persuasively defend America's much-maligned welfare system. A smart black girl from the Chicago slums didn't have much chance of going to Yale or becoming an editor at the New York Times Book Review before Aid to Families with Dependent Children helped Rosemary's selfless mother make ends meet and keep Rosemary in school. Bray's account of her progress is both inspiring and despairing, as she criticizes the welfare "reforms" that closed to others doors that were opened for her. From School Library Journal YA-Bray's memoir is a rags-to-middle-class story. Born in 1955, the author grew up in Chicago; her mother eked out an existence on welfare while her father worked sporadically, hindered and angered by segregation and taking it out on his family. Her mother spent part of her AFDC check on Catholic school tuition for her daughter; the nuns, seeing Bray's promise, pushed her on to a private, liberal high school. She persevered and blossomed, while developing an interest in the civil rights movement. She won a scholarship to Yale, where she enjoyed the intellectual stimulation provided by fellow black students. Eventually, she became an editor at the New York Times Book Review. Married to her college sweetheart and living in Harlem by then, Bray led efforts to hold her neighborhood together. She now lives in suburban New Jersey and continues to write. In a direct writing style that flows easily from point to point, she fleshes her story out and distills complexities of feeling and situations into clear prose so that readers can readily understand subtle concepts. The last chapter makes a strong statement against the 1996 welfare-reform bill that will force parents of young children to work, making them unable to give the care that, thanks to welfare, her mother was home to give her. Bray says that we will all pay the price for these neglected children.Judy McAloon, Potomac Library, Prince William County, VACopyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc. See all Editorial Reviews
