3 Stories About - Ambition

"There is something about the number 3. The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes.Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.From their pens to your your ears."

Arnold Bennett, Herman Melville, Paul Laurence Dunbar (Author), Christopher Ragland, Darrell Joe, Richard Mitchley (Narrator)

Lessons from Literature - Stories Dealing With Racism

"Being curious, learning from all of our experiences, is one of our most pleasing traits as human beings. In this series we examine particular facets of ourselves and, with the aid of many classic authors, delve into characters and stories that not only entertain us, but inform us on how short stories can help us both deal and understand issues that touch and weave into our lives with the words and narratives of many wise talents.The evil stain of Racism blights much of humanity. Our own ambition to be seen as better than the rest can sometimes, without any evidence to the contrary, spill over into corrosive thoughts and actions based on colour, religion and culture. These stories examine and reveal much about this appalling travesty. 01 - Lessons From Literature - Racism - An Introduction2 - The Scapegoat by Paul Laurence Dunbar3 - Desiree's Baby by Kate Chopin4 - The Stones of the Village by Alice Dunbar Nelson5 - The Brothers by Louisa May Alcott6 - Breaking the Color Line by Annie McCary7 - The Octoroon's Revenge by Ruth D Todd8 - The Hoodoo by Martha Gruening9 - The Quadroons by Lydia Maria Child10 - The Wife of His Youth by Charles W Chesnutt11 - Talma Gordon by Pauline E Hopkins12 - The City of Refuge by Rudolph Fisher"
