| justin bieber kourtney: LatinoLand Marie Arana, 2025-02-18 “A perfect representation of Latino diversity” (The Washington Post), LatinoLand draws from hundreds of interviews and prodigious research to give us both a vibrant portrait and the little-known history of our largest and fastest-growing minority, in “a work of prophecy, sympathy, and courage” (Junot Díaz, Pulitzer Prize–winning author). LatinoLand is an exceptional, all-encompassing overview of Hispanic America based on personal interviews, deep research, and Marie Arana’s life experience as a Latina. At present, Latinos comprise twenty percent of the US population, a number that is growing. By 2050, census reports project that one in every three Americans will claim Latino heritage. But Latinos are not a monolith. They do not represent a single group. The largest groups are Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, Salvadorans, and Cubans. Each has a different cultural and political background. Puerto Ricans, for example, are US citizens, whereas some Mexican Americans never immigrated because the US-Mexico border shifted after the US invasion of 1848, incorporating what is now the entire southwest of the United States. Cubans came in two great waves: those escaping communism in the early years of Castro, many of whom were professionals and wealthy, and those permitted to leave in the Mariel boat lift twenty years later, representing some of the poorest Cubans, including prisoners. As LatinoLand shows, Latinos were some of the earliest immigrants to what is now the US—some of them arriving in the 1500s. They are racially diverse—a random infusion of white, Black, indigenous, and Asian. Once overwhelmingly Catholic, they are becoming increasingly Protestant and Evangelical. They range from domestic workers and day laborers to successful artists, corporate CEOs, and US senators. Formerly solidly Democratic, they now vote Republican in growing numbers. They are as culturally varied as any immigrants from Europe or Asia. Marie Arana draws on her own experience as the daughter of an American mother and Peruvian father who came to the US at age nine, straddling two worlds, as many Latinos do. “Thorough, accessible, and necessary” (Ms. magazine), LatinoLand unabashedly celebrates Latino resilience and character and shows us why we must understand the fastest-growing minority in America. |
| justin bieber kourtney: LatinoLand (Spanish Edition) Marie Arana, 2025-01-21 “Perfecta representación de la diversidad latina” (The Washington Post), LatinoLand se nutre de cientos de entrevistas y de una prodigiosa investigación para ofrecernos tanto un vibrante retrato como la poco conocida historia de nuestra minoría más numerosa y de más rápido crecimiento, en “una obra de profecía, simpatía y coraje” (Junot Díaz, autor ganador del Premio Pulitzer). LatinoLand constituye una excepcional y completa panorámica de la América hispana basada en entrevistas personales, una profunda investigación y la experiencia vital de Marie Arana como latina. Hoy en día, los latinos representan el veinte por ciento de la población de Estados Unidos, cifra que sigue en aumento. Para 2050, los informes del censo prevén que uno de cada tres estadounidenses será de ascendencia latina. Pero los latinos no son un monolito. No representan a un único grupo. Los más numerosos son los mexicanos, puertorriqueños, dominicanos, salvadoreños y cubanos. Cada uno tiene un trasfondo cultural y político diferente. Los puertorriqueños, por ejemplo, son ciudadanos estadounidenses, mientras que algunos mexicano-estadounidenses nunca emigraron debido a que la frontera entre Estados Unidos y México se desplazó tras la invasión estadounidense de 1848, incorporando lo que hoy es todo el suroeste de Estados Unidos. Los cubanos llegaron en dos grandes oleadas: la de quienes escaparon del comunismo en los primeros años de Castro, muchos de los cuales eran profesionales y ricos, y la de los salieron con permiso en el éxodo del Mariel veinte años después, que representaban a algunos de los cubanos más pobres, incluso los presos. Como lo muestra LatinoLand, los latinos fueron de los primeros inmigrantes que llegaron a lo que hoy es Estados Unidos, algunos en el siglo XVI. Racialmente son diversos: una mezcla aleatoria de blancos, negros, indígenas y asiáticos. Alguna vez abrumadoramente católicos, entre ellos hay cada vez más protestantes y evangélicos. Abarcan desde empleadas domésticas y jornaleros hasta artistas de éxito, directivos de empresas y senadores estadounidenses. Antes demócratas en su mayoría, ahora votan cada vez más por los republicanos. En lo cultural son tan variados como cualquier inmigrante de Europa o Asia. |

| justin bieber kourtney: Visionen eines neuen Christentums Maria Hinsenkamp, 2024-11-22 Die deutschsprachigen und internationalen pfingstlich-charismatischen Bewegungen stehen für eine Transformation von Christentum und Gesellschaft. Maria Hinsenkamp deckt die expandierenden transkonfessionellen Vernetzungen auf, die über das Politische und Kulturelle bis in die Unterhaltungsindustrie hineinreichen. Den Strukturen der »Kingdom-minded Network Christianity« ist ein profiliertes theologisch-weltanschauliches Konzept gemein: Es wird ein bestimmtes Reich-Gottes-Verständnis postuliert, dessen Ziel die Herrschaft Gottes in allen individuellen und gesellschaftlichen Lebensbereichen ist. Eine Auseinandersetzung mit den neuen Entwicklungen ist nicht nur aus klassisch ökumenischer, sondern auch aus gesamtgesellschaftlicher Perspektive hoch relevant. |
| justin bieber kourtney: Keeping Up the Kardashian Brand Amanda Scheiner McClain, 2013-10-29 The Kardashian family is a contemporary cultural touchstone, recognizable throughout the world connoting warrantless celebrity, voluptuous beauty, and social media savviness. Amanda Scheiner McClain explores the Kardashians’ brand and celebrity via narrative discourse analyses of their hit reality television series, Keeping Up with the Kardashians, social media utilization, and popular press coverage. This triangulated study allows insight into contemporaneous American culture: societal norms, values, and ideologies, as well as structural and cultural aspects of cross-platform brand creation. The television series examination finds intrinsic paradoxes of sexuality/conservatism, family/business, beauty/unhappiness, narcissism/celebrity, intimate/transgressiveness, and traditional/nontraditional gender roles, as well as materialism and public vs. private spheres themes. In addition, a study of the Kardashian blogs and Twitter use finds that their careful participation amplifies celebrity and unifies the overall brand into a single, sellable image across media. Through interactive media and just being themselves, the Kardashians renovate banal status updates and hackneyed reality television into character-constructing building blocks of brand, celebrity, and profits. |

| justin bieber kourtney: Own The Moment Carl Lentz, 2017-10-31 This engaging and inspirational book by Carl Lentz, the rock star pastor of Hillsong NYC, shows us the way toward a more connected, spiritually-grounded, and fulfilled life. When you think of a Christian pastor, you probably don’t envision a tattooed thirty-something who wears a motorcycle jacket, listens to hip-hop music, references The Walking Dead and Black Lives Matter in his sermons, and every Sunday draws a standing-room only crowd to a venue normally used for rock concerts—in godless New York City, no less. But then you clearly have never met Carl Lentz. As lead pastor of the first United States branch of global megachurch Hillsong, the former college basketball player is on a mission to make Christianity accessible in the 21st century. In Own The Moment, he shares the unlikely and inspiring story of how he went from being an average teenager who couldn’t care less about church to leading one of the country’s fastest-growing congregations—how one day he is trying to convince a Virginia Beach 7-Eleven clerk to attend his service, and just a few years later he is baptizing a global music icon in an NBA player’s Manhattan bathtub. Amid such candid personal tales, Lentz also offers illuminating readings of Bible passages and practical tips on how to live as a person of faith in an increasingly materialistic world. How do you maintain your values—and pass them onto your children—in a society that worships money and sex and fame? How do you embrace your flaws in this Instagram era that exalts the appearance of perfection? How do you forget about “living the dream” and learn to embrace the beauty of your reality? These are just a few of the many important questions Lentz answers in Own The Moment—a powerful book that redefines not just Christianity but spirituality as a whole. |

| justin bieber kourtney: Celebrity, Aspiration and Contemporary Youth Heather Mendick, Aisha Ahmad, Kim Allen, Laura Harvey, 2018-02-22 Celebrity, Aspiration and Contemporary Youth uses the lens of celebrity to explore how young people think about their futures under austerity. Based on an interdisciplinary study, the book offers fresh insights into contemporary youth aspirations and inequalities. It helps us to understand young people's transitions into adulthood at a time of socio-economic 'crisis'. Drawing on original data, the authors examine what it means for young people to be forming their aspirations within the context of 'austere meritocracy'. The book addresses three central questions: What kinds of futures do young people desire and imagine for themselves? What is required of young people in the process of achieving these futures? And how are inequalities embedded and reproduced within these? Using young people's 'celebrity talk' to explore their aspirations, the authors challenge stereotypes of young people as a fame-hungry, get-rich-quick generation. Instead, they show how young people engage critically with celebrity and its discourses. Key chapters focus on how young people talk about youth, work, authenticity, success, happiness, money and fame in relation to their own lives and those of celebrities. Each of these chapters contains a case study of an international celebrity, including, Beyoncé, Will Smith, Bill Gates, Prince Harry and Kim Kardashian. The authors conclude with possibilities for social change. They show that celebrity offers an important way of working with young people to critically explore what futures are possible and for whom. |

| justin bieber kourtney: The Undertow: Scenes from a Slow Civil War Jeff Sharlet, 2023-03-21 An Instant New York Times Bestseller. A National Book Critics Circle Finalist for Nonfiction One of the New York Times 100 Notable Books of 2023 One of The New Republic's Best Books of 2023 “A riveting, vividly detailed collage of political and moral derangement in America.” —Joseph O’Neill, New York Times Book Review One of America’s finest reporters and essayists explores the powerful currents beneath the roiled waters of a nation coming apart. An unmatched guide to the religious dimensions of American politics, Jeff Sharlet journeys into corners of our national psyche where others fear to tread. The Undertow is both inquiry and meditation, an attempt to understand how, over the last decade, reaction has morphed into delusion, social division into distrust, distrust into paranoia, and hatred into fantasies—sometimes realities—of violence. Across the country, men “of God” glorify materialism, a gluttony of the soul, while citing Scripture and preparing for civil war—a firestorm they long for as an absolution and exaltation. Lies, greed, and glorification of war boom through microphones at hipster megachurches that once upon a time might have preached peace and understanding. Political rallies are as aflame with need and giddy expectation as religious revivals. At a conference for incels, lonely single men come together to rage against women. On the Far Right, everything is heightened—love into adulation, fear into vengeance, anger into white-hot rage. Here, in the undertow, our forty-fifth president, a vessel of conspiratorial fears and fantasies, continues to rise to sainthood, and the insurrectionist Ashli Babbitt, killed on January 6 at the Capitol, is beatified as a martyr of white womanhood. Framing this dangerous vision, Sharlet remembers and celebrates the courage of those who sing a different song of community, and of an America long dreamt of and yet to be fully born, dedicated to justice and freedom for all. Exploring a geography of grief and uncertainty in the midst of plague and rising fascism, The Undertow is a necessary reckoning with our precarious present that brings to light a decade of American failures as well as a vision for American possibility. |

| justin bieber kourtney: Sea Wife Amity Gaige, 2020-04-28 A New York Times Notable Book of the Year “Brilliantly breathes life not only into the perils of living at sea, but also into the hidden dangers of domesticity, parenthood, and marriage. What a smart, swift, and thrilling novel.” —Lauren Groff, author of Florida Juliet is failing to juggle motherhood and her stalled-out dissertation on confessional poetry when her husband, Michael, informs her that he wants to leave his job and buy a sailboat. With their two kids—Sybil, age seven, and George, age two—Juliet and Michael set off for Panama, where their forty-four foot sailboat awaits them. The initial result is transformative; the marriage is given a gust of energy, Juliet emerges from her depression, and the children quickly embrace the joys of being at sea. The vast horizons and isolated islands offer Juliet and Michael reprieve – until they are tested by the unforeseen. A transporting novel about marriage, family and love in a time of unprecedented turmoil, Sea Wife is unforgettable in its power and astonishingly perceptive in its portrayal of optimism, disillusionment, and survival. |
| justin bieber kourtney: Celebrity Society Robert van Krieken, 2018-12-07 On television and in films, in magazines and books, on the Internet and in the realm of politics, celebrities of all sorts seem to dominate our attention. Celebrity Society: The Struggle for Attention brings new perspectives to our understanding of how the figure of ‘the celebrity’ is bound up with the structure and dynamics of society, economics, and politics. It outlines how the ‘celebrification of society’ is not just the twentieth-century product of Hollywood and television, but a long-term historical process, beginning with Christian saints, the printing press, theatre, and art. Drawing on the ideas of Norbert Elias, the book explains how contemporary celebrity society is the heir (or heiress) of ‘court society’, taking on but also transforming many of the functions of the aristocracy. As well as examining celebrity in all the familiar arenas – film, television, music, fashion, and sport – Celebrity Society also includes the analysis of celebrity in business and management, politics, humanitarianism, and philanthropy. A key feature of the book is its development of the idea that celebrity is driven by the ‘economy of attention’, since attention has become a form of capital – attention capital – in the Information and Internet age. In this second edition the author has updated and significantly revised this path-breaking book to include a more detailed discussion of attention capital, the question of gender and celebrity, populism, fans, fandom, and self-formation, micro-celebrity, and personal or self-branding, the ‘worker celebrity’, and the impact of social media such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. Celebrity is an exciting and rapidly expanding field of social science, making this engaging book a valuable resource for students and scholars in sociology, politics, history, celebrity studies, cultural studies, the sociology of media, and cultural theory. |

Di banyak tempat, pergeseran ideologi berskala global yang mencemaskan ini, menuju apa yang sekarang kita sebut postmodernisme, telah menyebabkan hampir satu generasi Gen Z mendekonstruksi iman Kristen masa kecil mereka. Fenomena ini telah menyebabkan banyak model parenting dan pelayanan kita menjadi usang. Terinspirasi oleh skill unik dan tak lekang waktu dari suku Ishakar, Jussac berupaya menolong kita parents dan pastors untuk memahami bagaimana worldview kaum muda zaman ini. Dan kemudian memutuskan pendekatan apa yang harus kita ambil untuk bisa menjangkau hati para kaum muda itu. Kerangka dari seluruh buku ini bersifat sistematis, namun dipenuhi dengan cerita-cerita. Ia bersifat kontemporer (dihubungkan dengan penelitian-penelitian dan isu-isu terkini di media sosial), namun dibangun secara kuat di atas fondasi Alkitabiah. Tujuan akhirnya adalah menuntun kita berjalan di dalam sikap dan nilai-nilai dari Tuhan Yesus sendiri dalam menjangkau konteks di zaman- Nya. Ini adalah buku tentang kecerdasan kontekstual. Lebih dari itu, ide-ide dari halaman-halaman buku ini berpotensi memicu gerakan- gerakan kaum muda di mana-mana! |

| justin bieber kourtney: Alone in Plain Sight Ben Higgins, 2021-02-02 Are you tired of people knowing who you are but no one really knowing you? As the star of the twentieth season of The Bachelor, Ben Higgins looked like he had it all together. Instead, Ben felt dissatisfied, fearful, and deeply alone. Like so many of us, he thought of himself as the kid who never got picked for the game, the person always on the outside of the joke, the friend who knew a lot of people but was never truly known. He wondered if he mattered at all. In Alone in Plain Sight, Ben vulnerably shares how he found authentic connection with himself, with others, and with God. As Ben helps us name our own yearning for meaning, he explores ways to understand ourselves more deeply so that we are free to connect with others; how shared pain can bridge even the widest gaps between two very different people; why we must deconstruct our culture’s fairy-tale view of love; and how the God who longs for relationship with us is the answer to our need for connection. As Ben discovered, in a disconnected world, it is still possible to have lasting purpose and peace. You are already known. You are already loved. You are already seen. Discover how to live out how much you matter as you embrace the true meaning of your one incredible life. |
| justin bieber kourtney: The Secrets of My Life Caitlyn Jenner, 2017-04-25 In this remarkable memoir former Olympian and Kardashian family member Caitlyn Jenner reveals shocking and heartbreaking stories from her journey to become a transgender woman and fight for the LGBTQ+ community. Imagine denying your core and soul. Then add to it the most impossible expectations that people have for you because you are the personification of The American Male Athlete. Bruce Jenner, the celebrated Olympic icon and later the patriarch of one of the most famous families in the world, seemed to be living a dream life of success, fame, and prosperity. But the all-American image and million-dollar smile belied a lifelong struggle with gender dysphoria, and it wasn't until the sensational Diane Sawyer interview that the public mask of Bruce Jenner was finally retired, and through the memorable Vanity Fair piece by Buzz Bissinger, that Caitlyn Jenner was introduced to the world and set free to exist on her own terms. Since then, Caitlyn has undertaken an arduous emotional and physical odyssey to achieve the completeness she always felt was missing. In The Secrets of My Life, Caitlyn reflects on the inner conflict she experienced growing up in an era of rigidly defined gender identities, and the cruel irony of being hailed by an entire nation as the ultimate symbol of manhood. She recounts her Olympic triumph, her rise to fame, and relates how her sense of frustration and shame grew with the passing years and the lengths to which she had to go to conceal her true self. Caitlyn in turn uncovers the toll that these personal struggles had on her three marriages and, subsequently, the relationships with her children. She also talks candidly about her life in the public eye as a member of the Kardashian clan, what led to her decision to become Caitlyn, and how she, her family, the transgender community, and the rest of the world has since embraced her new life. Filled with incredibly personal and moving stories of struggle and victory, of anxiety and fear, and, finally, of surrender and acceptance, The Secrets of My Life reveals the real Caitlyn Jenner by tracing her long and eventful journey to becoming herself. |
