Customer ReviewsNo one knows Morrisons work like herself
Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :7
Toni Morrison was clearly ahead of her time -- look at her novels. Her interest in myth, history, a decentered narrator, racialized images of self, and aural language were well ahead of most critics and theorists, who are only now recognizing the full worth of her work. These collected interviews allow us to hear from the horses mouth what her narrative project is. For Morrison fans, it is particularly interesting to see how the various white interviewers grapple with Morrisons insistence on writing about the culture she knows best -- black culture -- and not putting whites front and center. It is also interesting to see how Morrison herself switches positions throughout her career, from an insistence that she writes only for herself (early in her career) to writing for "the black tribe" (middle of her career)to writing for seemingly everybody (later career). A particular treat, for me, were references scattered throughout to how "prickly" Morrison can be and how catty she was about not being nominated for a National Book Award for SONG OF SOLOMON.
Important companion to Playing in the Dark
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :11
The interviews in this book illuminate the forces behind Morrisons scholarly theories about the role of race in American literature. Anyone who has read "Playing in the Dark: Whiteness and the Literary Imagination" will immediately recognize key themes in many of these interviews, although the strongest distinctions can be found in the last two interviews, each given after publication of "Playing in the Dark." Taken chronilogically, the interviews are a thrillling opportunity to observe how Morrison has evolved as a writer and a scholar. To me, it is clear her novels are a carefully crafted attempt to mirror the racialized signifying she identifies in her scholarly critiques of white writers work.

What I once took advantage of has now changed due to this documentary. Gorillas are really in some ways identical to humans and after you watch this documentary you come to realize that youre just a naked gorilla ... a gorilla without all the fur/hair.

    Nature: Koko - A Conversation With Koko

    Nature: Koko - A Conversation With Koko

    Description


    This program doesnt just talk with an ape, it carries on an intimate, decades-long dialogue with her. The story documents the incredible development of a gorilla named Koko, whose learning of American Sign Language (and understanding of spoken English) gives new meaning to the ideas of animal intelligence and inter-species communication. Witness an animal who not only expresses wants and needs but also exhibits creativity and complex, human-like emotions. After being told that her pet kitten died in an accident, Koko demonstrates deep and sincere sadness-and seems to express exactly that when left alone that night. Most amazingly, she maintains a deep and enduring friendship with her human teacher and playmate, Dr. Penny Patterson. But will Dr. Pattersons innovative experiment end with Koko? Or will Koko give birth and transmit her knowledge to a new ape generation? Narrated by Martin Sheen, this inspiring, unforgettable program seeks the answers. The Gorilla Foundation - The mission of the Foundation is to bring interspecies communication to the public, in order to save gorillas from extinction, and inspire our children to create a better future for all the great apes. Established in 1976, The Gorilla Foundation/Koko.org promotes the protection, preservation and propagation of gorillas. Project Koko, a primary focus of TGF/Koko.org, involves teaching a modified form of American Sign Language to two lowland gorillas, Koko and Michael. In addition, TGF/Koko.org is developing a unique preserve for gorillas on the island of Maui, Hawaii.

    Customer Reviews500 pound gorilla in the room
    Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :22
    What a heartbreaker this segment of Nature becomes.

    Koko is, of course, the first talking (or signing) gorilla. She was later joined by Michael (who also learned to sign), and they became as brother and sister.

    Michael is the dark and silent type. One day, in true Real World fashion, he signs us his dark secret. As a young child, he witnessed the capture and slaughter of his mother for bush meat. He survives the slaughter as a pet, but he is traumatized for life.

    This DVD broke my heart twice - once while watching, and then again when I heard the news in April 2000 of Michaels sudden death from heart attack (or, rather, broken heart as we know it must have been). Gets 10 stars in my book - five for Koko and five for Michael.

    Kokos Kitten, by Dr. Francine Patterson, is about a gorilla and a kitten. Its almost Kokos birthday. Penny helps Koko she wanted to give Koko a toy cat. But it didnt come in on time. So Penny gave it to Koko on Christmas. Koko didnt like the toy cat. So Penny gave her a real cat. Koko named the kitten Ball. Ball bit Koko and Koko called Ball obnoxious but Koko never hit back. Koko treated Ball like a baby. Koko combed Ball, and put him in her thigh like what a mother will do. Koko also painted Ball. Koko played games with Ball that Ball hated.

    On a cloudy day Barbara told Penny that Ball got hit by a car and he was dead. Then Penny told Koko. And Koko was sad. Ten minutes later Penny heard Koko cry. Penny cried, too. Barbara asked Koko what she wanted for Christmas then Koko signs tiger cat. Then Penny shows Koko three drawings of cats. Koko picks a tailless Manx. On March 14 Koko got a red cat. Koko named it Lipstick. Koko was happy.

    The theme about this book is about friendship. Koko always plays with Penny. And she always plays with Ball. Koko thought Ball was her baby so she put him in her thigh. They always played games. I like the way Koko didnt hurt Ball.

Similarly, the study explores common ways of speaking such as "being honest" about who one is, "sharing" one's thoughts and feelings, and "really communicating" with others. By unraveling how these words give shape to American means and meanings, the study demonstrates how routine communication creates powerful motives in contemporary American life.

    I purchased this little box of cards at a Christmas sale. My 11 y.o. son started reading the questions after Christmas dinner. A whole new world opened up to our family. Once you start on these cards you will realize how little you knew about your famiy, friends and others in your life. This was one of the most meaningful purchases of my life.
    A fun game for everyone, young to old!

    I am in college, and my friends from home and I absolutely LOVE playing this game. Over breaks, we play it almost everyday, and it is simple fun that keeps you laughing for hours! We have so many great memories from this game! Ive played it with my family as well and they had a blast! Its a great game to bring with to your lake house, for car trips, family gatherings, or just something to do with your friends on a cold winter night! Be creative youd be surprised what kind of fun answers you can come up with!
    Great for Teachers to use

    I used the Chat Pack with my advisory students for 2 years so far (6th graders, 7th graders and now 8th graders). One of the purposes of advisory is to help students bond as a group. Research shows this bonding to a group helps students experience more success, less at-risk behaviors. By now, my students ask to have another question to answer. It is a great opportunity for students to share what relates to them and others to get to know them better. I do this during the 8 daily minutes we have, if we have time after details of the day. They never tire of doing this. It is also lovely for me to get to know the angels in my advisory.

    Pick any card and use it as a starting point for everything from a smart one-liner comeback to an all-night in-depth conversation that will let you learn about your family and friends from new and different perspectives. For example:

    "If you could have any object or place to yourself for one day, what would you choose?"

    "Youve been given the chance to travel into the future to see how the world will change over the next 50 years. What in particular are you most interested in?

    "If you could enter a race horse in the Kentucky Derby, what would you name him?"

    I promise you that once you get the party started, nobody will want to go home!
    Never thought so much fun could take up so little space!
    Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :3
    My sister received this as a gift from a co-worker and she brought it to one of our familys Christmas gatherings. I dont know if it is marketed as a game, but we treated it as one, with everybody taking turns drawing the cards and allowing everyone to answers. It was a blast!! We had a really wide age range and everybody got into it and enjoyed it. There were questions like: What is your all time favorite scene in a movie? If you could have 50 pounds of something (not money) what would it be? If you could be the apprentice to someone, living or dead, who would it be?
    I got to learn a lot about my relatives, even my own siblings, and it got everyone to join in on conversation together. I would totally recommend for your next gathering, small or large, to keep the conversations fun and exciting:)
