The author of this book, Dr. Mostafa Hefny, is of Egyptian, Nubian/African origin, whose self-identity and assertion that he should not be classified as a white man in United States legal and professional papers has caused him innumerable social, mental and professional harm and suffering. Dr. Hefny, who is a naturalized American citizen, came to the US in 1978 and became a U.S. citizen in 1985. He has a PhD in Education from Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan, U.S.A. He was a bilingual resource teacher with Wayne County Regional Education Service Agency for thirteen years. As a learned and proud Nubian/African, with an affirmative self-awareness, Dr. Hefny challenged a system that immediately classified him as a white man, purely because he originates from Egypt. He paid a heavy price for his self-assertion with personal harassment, professional isolation, lack of legitimate promotions at work, tremendous legal costs resulting, in mental, physical and financial stress. Here. Dr. Hefny narrates and documents in brief his harrowing experience with his employer, a service agency in Wayne, Michigan, where his refusal to be classified as a 'White Man', created an unhealthy working environment and resulted in his being confined to a medical facility"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Hefny, Mostafa, $d 1950- 650 0 $a Blacks $x Race identity $z United States. 650 0 $a Egyptian Americans $v Biography. 650 0 $a Nubians $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Nubians $x Ethnic identity. 650 0 $a Race awareness $z United States. 650 7 $a Blacks $x Race identity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00833987 650 7 $a Egyptian Americans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00903919 650 7 $a Nubians. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01039865 650 7 $a Nubians $x Ethnic identity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01039866 650 7 $a Race awareness. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086455 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Biography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423686 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200204023316.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D0BC515E471C11EA8C4E586797128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
