United Against Bullies

This is a place where the Davids of the world can unite and develop strategies and group efforts/consortia to make this world a better place to take on the Goliaths who bully anyone they choose. Whether it is parents striving to get a decent education for their children, writers struggling to find a forum for their work, or citizens working to get their vote counted, this site belongs to you...

New Bullies Perpetuating History

More than forty years ago, racist bullies thought they would silence the voice of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Since that time, there have certainly been gains in the civil rights movement, but there has also been stagnation.

King stated:
Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent.

Read about the bulling that is continuing to occur in the fields of education, law, voting, and elsewhere and then straighten your back to walk tall, speak out, and work for doing what's right.

Hidden Abuse in Upscale Marriages

This is a cross post with another blog, Bully Fatigue (http://bullyfatigue.wordpress.com)

Hidden Abuse in Upscale Marriages

Welcome to my blog where I share thoughts about the impact of bullying on the lives of both adults and children.

There are many types of bullies. For my first quick post, I will share the latest book I will be reading entitled Not to People Like Us: Hidden Abuse in Upscale Marriages by Susan Weitzman. Here’s what www.nottopeoplelikeus.com said about this book

Not to People like Us: Hidden Abuse in Upscale Marriages is the groundbreaking book written by Dr. Susan Weitzman after many years of research on upscale violence. The first book of its kind to lift the veil of silence on abuse in upper educated and upper income families. Founder and Director of The Weitzman Center and practicing in Chicago, Dr. Weitzman has been featured on Oprah (called the “national expert on abusive relationships”), 20/20, National Public Radio, Fox news and in People magazine, The New York Post, Self Magazine, and The Chicago Tribune, offering her expertise on the dynamics and dangers of abusive relationships.

Please come back (to bullyfatigue) to visit as I share what I learn in this book.
