Book Synopsis Helping Familiar Strangers by : Louise Olliff
Download or read book Helping Familiar Strangers written by Louise Olliff and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-06 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who helps in situations of forced displacement? How and why do they get involved? In Helping Familiar Strangers, Louise Olliff focuses on one type of humanitarian group, refugee diaspora organizations (RDOs), to explore the complicated impulses, practices, and relationships between these activists and the "familiar strangers" they try to help. By documenting findings from ethnographic research and interviews with resettled and displaced persons, RDO representatives, and humanitarian professionals in Australia, Switzerland, Thailand, and Indonesia, Olliff reveals that former refugees are actively involved in helping people in situations of forced displacement and that individuals with lived experience of forced displacement have valuable knowledge, skills, and networks that can be drawn on in times of humanitarian crisis. We live in a world where humanitarians have varying motivations, capacities, and ways of helping those in need, and Helping Familiar Strangers confirms that RDOs and similar groups are an important part of the tapestry of care that people turn to when seeking protection far from home.

Book excerpt: "I used to find the phrase 'my past haunts me' a bit dramatic. A little over the top, especially for mundanities. But now, my past is sitting by my window. Haunting me. Literally." Celia Greene watched Bennet March die. It's not something she'll sugarcoat, and it certainly isn't something she'll forget. But she readily welcomes distractions in her life. Anything to keep her mind off of what she witnessed, what she couldn't prevent. So when her mom offers her an opportunity to reconcile things with her absent father and grandmother, her first instinct is to decline. It sounds more like a chore than a reunion, and she's got plenty to deal with. Namely, the ghost in her room. Bennet March. When it becomes increasingly obvious that Bennet isn't going away, Celia sees the trip as a chance to figure things out. One month to answer all her questions. Why has Bennet returned? What does he want? Why does her grandmother 'need' a runway? Most importantly-why can a random passerby see Bennet?

Book excerpt: As crime stories go, ‘Tiger City’ is not the usual fair. It is a POWERFUL blend of suspense, and thought- provoking themes. It is timely, as well as nostalgic. Set in early 1970’s New York, it involves a struggling singer/songwriter who, unexpectedly, is charged and convicted of first-degree murder, attempted murder, and illegal drug possession. Once he is sentenced to a rather lengthy incarceration, at Attica State Prison, he suddenly finds himself in the midst of the institution’s infamous riots. In his sense of disappointment and despair, he begins to empathize with the inmates, and calls a local radio station, from the prison, during the ‘uprising’, and falsely claims that several of them have escaped into nearby Buffalo, which in turn causes city-wide pandemonium and fear. What follows is nothing short of staggering, terrifying, and surprising. ‘Tiger City’ takes you through a whirlwind of emotions, and will leave you STUNNED for quite some time.

Book Synopsis England Re-Oriented by : Humberto Garcia
Download or read book England Re-Oriented written by Humberto Garcia and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-11-19 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does the love between British imperialists and their Asian male partners reveal about orientalism's social origins? To answer this question, Humberto Garcia focuses on westward-bound Central and South Asian travel writers who have long been forgotten or dismissed by scholars. This bias has obscured how Joseph Emin, Sake Dean Mahomet, Shaykh I'tesamuddin, Abu Talib Khan, Abul Hassan Khan, Yusuf Khan Kambalposh, and Lutfullah Khan found in their conviviality with Englishwomen and men a strategy for inhabiting a critical agency that appropriated various media to make Europe commensurate with Asia. Drama, dance, masquerades, visual art, museum exhibits, music, postal letters, and newsprint inspired these genteel men to recalibrate Persianate ways of behaving and knowing. Their cosmopolitanisms offer a unique window on an enchanted third space between empires in which Europe was peripheral to Islamic Indo-Eurasia. Encrypted in their mediated homosocial intimacies is a queer history of orientalist mimic men under the spell of a powerful Persian manhood.

Download or read book Bloody Jungle Rain written by M. J. Earle and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most compelling and thought-provoking Vietnam stories ever told begins with an explosion that seriously injures Corporal James Morrison. At first he wonders why he's lying on his back and it's raining on a sunny day. Then he realizes it isn't rain coming down, but human blood. Bloody Jungle Rain explores what happens to the reluctant Marine who was wounded in 1968. His brush with death brings Morrison to an operating room and a near-death experience that changes his life forever. The wounded Marine faces Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, depression, alcoholism and a broken marriage. Yet through his maze of problems there runs a thread of determination and the hope of finding a peaceful harbor. Sadly though, peace was difficult to find for many Vietnam veterans returning home to an unsympathetic public. This story about courage by Colorado native M.J. Earle was written to remember a childhood friend killed in Vietnam. The author says it proves that it is possible to overcome horrendous problems as long as there is faith and hope in the human heart.

Each has had a loved one ravaged by Alzheimer's Disease. We watched them morph into complete strangers who continue to look the same. Famous or not, the five million Alzheimer's victims in this country and their families are people trying to get through this tragedy. Whether beginning the search for diagnosis, adjusting to its reality, or wondering if you are doing the right thing, you are eager for answers. Whether the victim is in the early, moderate or severe stage you have doubts. Been there and done that. To the astonishment of doctors, we kept my wife at home and thriving for thirteen years with moderate to severe Alzheimer's Disease. To do that takes dedication, planning and faith. However, we are ordinary people and we did it. Many of you can too. I wrote this book because this disease has touched nearly a hundred friends either as victims, relatives or caregivers. During one half hour at my fifty-fifth college reunion, I learned of three more stricken classmates. This book is for them, their friends, families, and you.
