Description

Product Description This collection of essays written by seventeen Generation X academics passionately, provocatively, and eloquently demonstrates the personal issues, conflicts, and triumphs that are definitive of this generation. These essays define the voice of an often overlooked and ignored demographic. Review While some contributions are stronger than others, as a whole the book achieves its purpose through the insightful and honest author self-reflections. . . .As a whole, the book presents an appropriate and necessary diversity of experiences [such as] race, gender, sexual orientation, discipline. While some chapters were stronger than others, it was a worthwhile book to read and would be a valuable addition to a post-secondary library.--Reflective Teaching About the Author Elwood Watson is professor of history, African American studies, and gender studies at East Tennessee State University. He has edited or co-edited six anthologies. He is also the author and co-author of several academic scholarly articles. His book Outsiders Within: Black Women in the Legal Academy after Brown v. Board was published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers in 2008.
