      2012., Palgrave Macmillan Call No: MEMOIR   Edition: 1st ed.    Availability:1 of 1     At Location(s) Summary Note: "During the Arab Spring, the world saw a long-suppressed group in the Middle East--young people--assert itself and demand its rights. But youthful dissent did not appear overnight; for decades it has been simmering beneath the surface in countries from Saudi Arabia to Yemen, from Iran to Egypt. In Arab Spring Dreams, a number of young Middle Easterners describe their experiences with the region's laws and cultural mores, including the crime of holding hands before marriage, discrimination and harassment over religious beliefs, and young women fighting for the right to complete their educations. They also discuss how previous uprisings, particularly the American civil rights movement of the 1960s, might be channeled to effect change in their own countries. Beautifully written and profoundly moving, these stories present a decisive call for change at a crucial point in the evolution of the Middle East"--

Twelve-year-old Joan Barnes considers freedom her birthright as the child of upper middle class Yankee Catholics in Mississippi. C.J. Evans was born to a life of cleaning whitefolks' houses and freedom is what she holds in her heart and can't be taken from her. And for Zach Bernstein, a Jewish University of Chicago law student, freedom is an ever-expanding circle that can only get bigger. As the lives of these three collide when Zach comes to Mississippi in the summer of 1964 to teach at the Meridian Freedom School, they will each come to question their concepts of freedom and what price they are willing to pay for it.
