Come By Here - Neesha Powell-Ingabire

Georgia Author of the Year, nomineeAmber Hollibaugh Award for LGBTQ+ Social Justice Writing, FinalistIn this powerful debut memoir, Neesha Powell-Ingabire chips away at coastal Georgia’s facade of beaches and golden marshes to recover undertold Black history alongside personal and family stories. In May of 2020, Neesha Powell-Ingabire’s hometown became infamous after a viral video spread of white vigilantes killing a Black man named Ahmaud Arbery. The small coastal city of Brunswick, Georgia became synonymous with this tragedy, which, along with the police murders of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd, spurred an international movement that summer to end white supremacy. Neesha Powell-Ingabire, a millennial journalist, essayist, and organizer, grew up in Brunswick feeling alienated as a Black queer and disabled girl in a fraught racial and political environment. Come By Here: A Memoir in Essays from Georgia’s Geechee Coast traces the genealogy of systemic racial violence while paying homage to the area’s long history of Black resistance and culture keeping. Powell-Ingabire probes her personal connection to past and present: the victorious campaign to remove Brunswick’s Confederate monument out of a public park, modern echoes of ancestral practices such as farming, fishing, and basket weaving, the fight for Geechee land in Sapelo ...

The Power of Bridging - john a. powell

A bold guide for connecting across differences—even those that seem impossible“Wise and visionary, powell helps us find the courage to forge connections with others, the earth, and ourselves in order to transform the world from the inside out.” —Valarie Kaur, bestselling author of See No Stranger and Sage WarriorWe don’t want to live in a society in turmoil. In fact, 93 percent of people in the US want to reduce divisiveness, and 86 percent believe it’s possible to disagree in a healthy way. Yet with increasing political and social fragmentation, many of us don’t know how to move past our differences. Civil rights scholar john a. powell presents an actionable path through “bridging” that helps us communicate, coexist, and imagine a new story for our shared future where we all belong.With inimitable warmth and vision, powell offers a framework for building cohesion and solidarity between disparate beliefs and backgrounds. Bridging is more than a discrete list of actions to follow—it’s a mindset we can develop to help us foster belonging and connection. Key elements of the bridging mindset include:• Understanding how deeply “othering” shapes our world, priming us to see difference of any kind—race, gender, political orientation, etcetera—as a threat• ...

Baden Powell s Fighting Police The SAC - Ross Hamish

Exploring the creation and impact of Baden-Powell''s South African Constabulary during and after the Boer War.This work begins in August 1900 during the war in South Africa, when mounted Boer commandos ranging across the veldt superseded pitched battles of massed armies and heavy weaponry. Thanks to his flair for organization, Baden-Powell is asked to create a mounted force with a combined military and police role, and will be answerable to the Commander-in-Chief and the civil High Commissioner.Rejecting Army models of command, Baden-Powell creates the South African Constabulary (SAC) with a small number of officers, dividing it into Troops of 100 men, then sub-dividing again into sections and the key working unit – the squad of six men under a corporal. To get the caliber of recruit he wants, the SAC will be better paid than the Army and he expects the men to be motivated by a code of honor, to be self-reliant and ‘handy men’ able to tackle any kind of work. Most recruits come from the UK, but in Canada, however, the Governor General intervenes and botches selection.The SAC’s effectiveness comes to light in this book – the first that deals with its creation and development; its wartime ...

Gareth B. Matthews, The Child's Philosopher

Winner of the 2022 Book Award of the Philosophy of Education Society of Australasia, Gareth B. Matthews, The Child''s Philosopher brings together groundbreaking essays by renowned American philosopher Gareth B. Matthews in three fields he helped to initiate: philosophy in children’s literature, philosophy for children, and philosophy of childhood. In addition, contemporary scholars critically assess Matthews’ pioneering efforts and his legacy. Gareth B. Matthews (1929-2011) was a specialist in ancient and medieval philosophy who had conversations with young children, discovering that they delight in philosophical puzzlement and that their philosophical thinking often enriched his own understanding. Those conversations became the impetus for a substantial component of Matthews’ scholarship, from which this book features essays spanning the length of his career. Contemporary contributors to the book critically evaluate Matthews’ scholarship, showing where he broke new ground and identifying developments and debates in the fields he helped to initiate. They take up pressing challenges, including biased idealizations of childhood in children’s literature; the tensions between teaching philosophy to, and doing philosophy with young people; the merits of theorizing childhood without theorizing children; and how professional philosophy at once desires and resists a return to childhood.This second volume in the Philosophy for Children Founders series is an important resource for philosophers, educators, and anyone interested in children’s philosophical thinking, developmental psychology, what it means to philosophize with children, the ...

Varování před masovou migrací neevropského obyvatelstva a ideologií „antidiskriminace - Enoch Powell

V této publikaci vám předkládáme překlad světově proslulého projevu anglického politika Enocha Powella, v kterém veřejně varoval Angličany před masovou migrací neevropského obyvatelstva na Britské ostrovy a před tzv. „antidiskriminačními“ zákony, které zvýhodňují nebělošské cizince a diskriminují původní bílé obyvatele. Fakticky se pod rouškou boje s rasismem začaly omezovat občanská práva původních obyvatel, například právo odmítnout někomu pronajmout svou nemovitost, když jste ji deklarovali k pronájmu. Pokud by úřady dospěly k názoru, že vaše odmítnutí bylo motivováno diskriminací, tak jste mohli být přísně potrestáni bez ohledu na to, jestli jste opravdu byli motivování rasistickým postojem nebo jen obavou z možného násilí zájemce o pronájem.Tento projev zlidověl pod názvem „řeky krve“. Paradoxně byl projev pronesen v Birminghamu, který je dnes považován za město již prakticky bez převažující anglické kultury – což je výsledek několik desítek let trvající masové migrace neevropského obyvatelstva.Jen pro ilustraci: v roce 2021 se k muslimskému vyznání hlásilo 341 811 obyvatel Birminghamu, což představuje 29,9 % celkové populace města. Dle sčítání lidu v Anglii a Walesu, bez Skotska a Severního Irska, jsou výsledky následující: Počet muslimů v Anglii a Walesu vzrostl z odhadovaných 226.000 v roce 1971 na přibližně 3,9 milionu v roce 2021, což představovalo 6,5 % ...

They were instantly inseparable and police dog Theo became the best partner Gareth’s ever had.During six-and-a-half years of active service, police dog Theo located, tracked and detained suspects leading to more than 200 arrests.

Texas - Mary Jo Powell

Mary Jo Powell''s Texas begins with a panorama of the vast Texas landscape, from the Piney Woods to Big Bend Country, before turning to the people of the land now called Texas. She begins with those who inhabited the area before the Spanish arrived, the story of the Alamo, the movement from independent nation to state, the role of slavery in Texas, the state''s role in the Civil War and reconstruction, and how the state survived both World Wars and the Depression. Along the way, Powell addresses some uniquely Texan phenomena, such as the myth and realities of the Texas cowboy, how the discovery of oil and logging changed the land and its identity, and the rancorous and spirited world of Texas politics, which made its mark on US politics with the rise of Lyndon B. Johnson and the Bush family. It also introduces readers to the spicier side of the state, including its food, the movies it inspired, its music, and its writers.

Why Am I Afraid to Tell You Who I Am? - John Powell

This book by the author of Why Am I Afraid to Love? contains insights on self-awareness, personal growth and communication with others. Why do people continually hide their real selves from the people around them? Why are so many so insecure and afraid to open up? The answer, explains John Powell, is that maturity is reached by communicating and interacting with others. This book considers the consequences our real self faces if no one else ever finds out what we are like. In this enduring classic, the companion to Why Am I Afraid to Love?, John Powell explains how to be more emotionally open, and shows how people adopt roles and play psychological games to protect their inner selves. The courage to be our real selves can be developed, and then we can begin to grow. Now newly designed for a fresh audience, Why Am I Afraid to Tell You Who I Am? is as relevant as it has been for twenty years. With a proven track record, it continues to speak to the needs and aspirations of people today. It is best included in self help sections of general bookshops, but also has a religious appeal.

Great Hatred, Little Room - Jonathan Powell

Making peace in Northern Ireland was the greatest success of the Blair government, and one of the greatest achievements in British politics since the Second World War. In Jonathan Powell''s masterly account we learn just how close the talks leading to the Good Friday agreement came to collapse and how the parties finally reached a deal.Pithy, outspoken and precise, Powell, Tony Blair''s chief of staff and chief negotiator, gives us that rarest of things, a true insider''s account of politics at the highest level. He demonstrates how the events in Northern Ireland have valuable lessons for those seeking to end conflict in other parts of the world and shows us how the process of making peace is sometimes messy and often blackly comic.

Scouting for Boys - Robert Baden-Powell

''A Scout is a Friend to all''An amalgam of imperial myth, borrowed tips on health and hygiene, and object lessons in woodcraft, the 1908 text of Robert Baden-Powell''s Scouting for Boys is the original blueprint and ''self-instructor'' of the Boy Scout Movement. One of the all-time bestsellers in the English-speaking world, this primer of ''yarns and pictures'' constitutes probably the most influential manual for youth ever published. Yet the book is at the same time a roughly composed hodge-podge of jingoist lore and tracker legend, padded with lengthy quotations from adventure fiction and Baden-Powell''s own autobiography, and seamed through with the multiple anxieties of its time: fears of degeneration, concerns about masculinity and self-restraint, and invasion paranoia.Elleke Boehmer''s edition of Scouting for Boys reprints the original text and illustrations, and her fine introduction investigates a book that has been cited as an authority by militarists and pacifists, capitalists and environmentalists alike.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.

Fall Through - Nate Powell

"Devastating and gorgeous," the New York Times Book Review proclaims. "Perhaps it’s a ghost story, perhaps it’s a fantasy story, but it’s refreshingly oblique. The images are heightened and stylized, the better to pass along that frisson so essential to punk art—rock or otherwise."Love and Rockets meets Russian Doll in this original, full-color graphic novel about an underground punk band caught in a loop of an eternally repeating tour—from National Book Award–winning cartoonist Nate Powell. Master cartoonist Nate Powell has crafted a graphic novel that serves as both a brilliant example of circular storytelling and a love letter to the spirit of punk communities. Fall Through will stay with the reader long after they’ve turned the last page, asking the impossible question: Would you burn down everything you love in order to save it all? At first glance, Diamond Mine seems to have emerged in 1979 as Arkansas’s first punk band. Instead, this quartet is revealed to be interdimensional travelers from 1994, guided—largely against their will—by vocalist Diana’s powerful spell embedded into their song “Fall Through.” As Diamond Mine tours the country, each performance of the song triggers a fracturing of space-time perceptible only by the band members as they’re ...

Doctor Who: Shada - Douglas Adams, Gareth Roberts

Shada. Dobrodružství čtvrtého Doktora, které se nikdy nedostalo na televizní obrazovku. Scénář k němu však v roce 1979 psal Douglas Adams a Gareth Roberts nyní původní text dotvořil do podoby příběhu plného zvratů, zmatků a časoprostorových paradoxů. Doktor se společnicí Romanou obdrží naléhavou žádost o pomoc od svého dávného přítele profesora Chronotise z Cambridge. Když se ale Doktorova TARDIS roku 1979 zhmotní v knihami přeplněné univerzitní pracovně roztržitého starého profesora, který o žádné zprávě nic neví, zdá se, že Doktora s Romanou nečeká nic než projížďky po řece a spousty šálků čaje. To by ovšem nesměli zaslechnout jakési mrazivě nelidské úpění přicházející zdánlivě odnikud. Navíc profesora tíží jedna záhadná ztracená kniha… Než se Doktor naděje, pronásleduje ho létající koule schopná vysávat myšlenky, která patří Skagrovi, šílenému zločinci, jehož dokonale promyšlený plán na ovládnutí vesmíru může zhatit jen Doktorova chaotická improvizace, při které mu zdatně asistují nejen "humanoidi" Chris a Clare, ale i mobilní počítač K-9. Otázku, kdo je Skagra, brzy doplní ještě znepokojivější otázka: kdo je ve skutečnosti profesor Chronotis? A bude ve vesmíru dál platit druhý termodynamický zákon? A kdo nebo co je Shada?
