"Powerful and poignant.... Newman's message is clear and timely." --The Philadelphia Inquirer In No Shame in My Game, Harvard anthropologist Katherine Newman gives voice to a population for whom work, family, and self-esteem are top priorities despite all the factors that make earning a living next to impossible--minimum wage, lack of child care and health care, and a desperate shortage of even low-paying jobs. By intimately following the lives of nearly 300 inner-city workers and job seekers for two yearsin Harlem, Newman explores a side of poverty often ignored by media and politicians--the working poor. The working poor find dignity in earning a paycheck and shunning the welfare system, arguing that even low-paying jobs give order to their lives. No Shame in My Game gives voice to a misrepresented segment of today's society, and is sure to spark dialogue over the issues surrounding poverty, working and welfare.

What does it mean to be poor in Britain and America? For decades the primary narrative about poverty in both countries is that it has been caused by personal flaws or ‘bad life decisions’ rather than policy choices or economic inequality. This misleading account has become deeply embedded in the public consciousness with serious ramifications for how financially vulnerable people are seen, spoken about and treated. Drawing on a two-year multi-platform initiative, this book by award-winning journalist and author Mary O’Hara, asks how we can overturn this portrayal once and for all. Crucially, she turns to the real experts to try to find answers – the people who live it.

Description:"No Shame in my Pain" is about not being ashamed of the things in your life that have caused you trauma, hurt, and grief but to stand in front of your pain and acknowledge it and own it so you can begin to heal from it. This self-help book and journal takes you through the life story of some of the author's most painful moments in her life that she had to overcome, such as domestic violence, teen dating violence, miscarriage, cancer, and painful memories. The book walks you through defining self-love and turning your mess into a message and your test into a testimony. It's about living life without regrets and understanding that your pain matters. This book includes reflections to help you start to think about your own story, scriptures, quotes, and affirmations. It's time to heal, and the only way to heal is to deal with what is hurting you and give yourself permission to heal in time. There is no time limit as to how long it takes you to heal, but you should see growth throughout your healing journey and embrace the small victories that happen. Learn from your past but don't allow it to define your future.

Brad feels nothing but shame about himself. Shame about his needs. Shame about his reputation of being a slut. Shame about his medical problem no one knows about. No one, except his best friend Charlie, but no matter what feelings Brad may have for him, he’s not going there. Charlie deserves better, and Brad craves something Charlie can’t provide. Brad wants just sex, and he gets what he wants with FBI agent Miles. But then Miles wants more, and something blooms between him and Charlie as well. Now Brad is screwed, because he can’t let anyone close, not ever again. Because nobody ever chooses him. Or do they? No Shame is a steamy MMM romance and the fourth in the No Shame Series, which needs to be read in order. It ends with a happy ever after for all characters, including those from the previous books in the series. Please note the trigger warnings in the front of the book.
