  As we approach#Thanksgiving, we share with you a#FREE#OpenAccess book on gratitude.Lessons in Gratitude tells the story of Aaron Dworkin, a MacArthur Fellow, social entrepreneur, and spoken word artist who has dedicated his life’s work to changing the face of classical arts in the world. The themes of persistence, passion, and loyalty shine through stories of an unhappy childhood, a lifelong search for identity, and the obstacles of race, culture, and class.Aaron’s unique journey, which begins with his adoption by a white Jewish couple from Chicago at two weeks of age, leads him to the ultimate reunification with his birth family at the age of 31. It's a coming of age story that examines the difficulties of biracial identity across generations and the challenges that mixed race families still face today.ThanksUniversity of Michigan Press#ReadUP#TeamUP with#MUSEhttps://bit.ly/3X3jsyR

  Higher Education Careers Beyond the Professoriate is one of the first collections to explore PhD career versatility within higher education. The twenty-three contributors represent diverse disciplines, institution types, professional roles, and intersectional identities. Each thoughtful and personal essay explores firsthand what it means to remain in higher education, yet not in the traditional role of a professor. Topics include establishing new career paradigms, well-being and work-life balance, blended roles and identities, and professional work around advocacy and inclusion.Explore this timely book fromPurdue University Presshttps://bit.ly/4cUBt8a#OA#OpenAccess

  In collaboration with theUnited States Holocaust Memorial Museum, MUSE created this interactive map of Nazi camps and ghettos. This visual representation brings into clear relief just how vast and dense the persecution of the Holocaust was, but it also allows for users to make connections between sites, to filter by camp type or country or ECG volume, to zoom in and out and to click through to the HTML entry documenting each site.#ReadUP#StepUPhttps://lnkd.in/ebsXwBUpThis just represents the first four volumes. As subsequent volumes are published, those sites will be populated here.Those circles and numbers represent the number of sites in each region. As you zoom in, all those numbers disperse and turn into individual points you can click on.American Library AssociationAmerican Historical AssociationASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITY PRESSES

  Happy Birthday Margaret Atwood, Canadian author whose 1985 dystopian novel, "A Handmaid's Tale" warned us of the dangers of a patriarchal society and its attitudes towards women. We have a FREE article here on her novels.https://bit.ly/fbkatwoodBut don't stop there. Keep exploring and you'll find much more content on MUSE about the author.https://lnkd.in/ezi5WmXK
