Cries of a broken man and screams of a broken woman are one in the same but expressed differently. Cries of a Broken Man is a closed off discussion due to our men being raised to not show their emotions as it's a sign of weakness. This is far from the truth. Men are human too and should be able to share their emotions due to them having feelings. Men need to understand; yes you are the protector, provider, and leader of the household. However, know it is okay to express yourself. Screams of a Broken Woman stems from women having to carry the world on their shoulders. At the same time, being unable to let out the screams that would pierce the ears to the person next to her. Behind the screams, she's trying to tell you something but all she knows is how to scream due to the frustration of not being heard or being misunderstood. Behind those screams, is a woman trying to tell you something but with built up frustration and being misunderstood; she isn't heard. Take a moment to learn more from these amazing authors expressing themselves; seek listening ears in hopes of communicating clearly to those who seek to understand the misunderstood. Internalizing a better form of painting a picture and being able to use the voice they yearn to be heard. These amazing authors will be sharing their truth at the most vulnerable state of being an individual who feels alone with no one to turn to, whom they can trust at their weakest moment. All while remaining caution enough to know if the person they choose to share their deepest thoughts will not hold it against them. Join us in celebrating the men and women who are willing to open up in order to help the next person who is experiencing the cries and screams in which causes us to become broken.

"To educate American girls and women in ways beyond the traditional has been a dangerous experiment that has challenged basic notions of female nature and has seemed to threaten the social order... One such bold venture in female education-the Bryn Mawr School of Baltimore, Maryland-is the subject of Andrea Hamilton's lively and well-researched book... In Hamilton's telling, the story of the Bryn Mawr School moves beyond its local particulars to illumine much about the history of American education and life... The importance of Hamilton's contribution is that she never loses sight of the complexity of the school and its relation to society. Her history of the Bryn Mawr School helps us understand aspects of the unique position held by American women in national social, intellectual, and cultural life."-from the Foreword by Helen Lefkowitz Horowitz Baltimore's Bryn Mawr School was founded in the 1880s, the first college-preparatory school for girls in the United States. Unlike other educational institutions at the time, the Bryn Mawr School championed intellectual equality of the sexes. Established with the goal of providing girls with an education identical to boys' in quality and compass, it endeavored to prepare girls to excel in a public sphere traditionally dominated by men. Narrating the history of the Bryn Mawr School, Andrea Hamilton's A Vision for Girls examines the value of single-sex education, America's shifting educational philosophy, and significant changes in the role of women in American society. Hamilton reveals an institution that was both ahead of its time and a product of its time. A Vision for Girls offers an original and engaging history of an institution that helped shape educational goals in America, shedding light on the course of American education and attitudes toward women's intellectual and professional capabilities.
