Download or read book Yellow Rain written by Mai Der Vang and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reinvestigation of chemical biological weapons dropped on the Hmong people in the fallout of the Vietnam War In this staggering work of documentary, poetry, and collage, Mai Der Vang reopens a wrongdoing that deserves a new reckoning. As the United States abandoned them at the end of the Vietnam War, many Hmong refugees recounted stories of a mysterious substance that fell from planes during their escape from Laos starting in the mid-1970s. This substance, known as “yellow rain,” caused severe illnesses and thousands of deaths. These reports prompted an investigation into allegations that a chemical biological weapon had been used against the Hmong in breach of international treaties. A Cold War scandal erupted, wrapped in partisan debate around chemical arms development versus control. And then, to the world’s astonishment, American scientists argued that yellow rain was the feces of honeybees defecating en masse—still held as the widely accepted explanation. The truth of what happened to the Hmong, to those who experienced and suffered yellow rain, has been ignored and discredited. Integrating archival research and declassified documents, Yellow Rain calls out the erasure of a history, the silencing of a people who at the time lacked the capacity and resources to defend and represent themselves. In poems that sing and lament, that contend and question, Vang restores a vital narrative in danger of being lost, and brilliantly explores what it means to have access to the truth and how marginalized groups are often forbidden that access.

Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Lauren Dane delivers another great read with this sexy paranormal shifter romance. Rain left her old life to find a fresh start. But a wolf shifter mate wasn’t exactly what she was expecting… A new name, a new job, a new life—far from the dangers of her old one. Then Laurent walked into her restaurant and changed everything. The second-in-command for the Cherchez Wolf Pack, Laurent didn’t expect to find his destiny in a roadside café. But there’s no doubt in his mind that waitress-by-day, artist-by-night Rain is his mate. And the urge to be near her, to protect her, to have her is intoxicating. An unbelievably hot night leaves them both wanting more. But more with Laurent comes with an introduction to his extended family—of werewolves. Learning that supernatural beings are real is a shock, but becoming one turns out to be the best decision she’s made in her new life. No matter how good things are with Laurent and the pack, Rain can’t run from her old life forever. When a threat on the horizon tests the life they’re building together, Rain will have to prove that her place is with the Cherchez wolves—no matter who says otherwise.

Download or read book The Viking Wolf written by H P Mallory and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-05 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For as long as I can remember, I've known things I have no way of knowing-it's almost like getting little whispers from the future, little hints about what's going to happen... When I receive an email from an unknown sender about a little town called Marshall Heights, I can't seem to shake the feeling that I'm meant to move there. Fast forward a few weeks and I find myself starting over in this postage-sized town. And when I happen to see him loading groceries into an old truck, I'm shocked speechless. I've been in love with Torsten Black ever since he left me with no explanation eight years ago. Not a day has gone by that I haven't thought of him. So, to see him here, now, in this Podunk town... it has to be fate. But, Torsten isn't as happily surprised to see me. Instead, he appears to be haunted by his past-a past full of secrets and lies. Torsten insists he's not the same man he used to be. He also insists that I'm not safe in Marshall Heights-something which becomes abundantly clear when Torsten's brother, Skarde, a full-blown Viking warrior come from another realm, suddenly shows up in my apartment and tries to murder me. Realizing I'm not the witch he thinks I am, Skarde releases me and then demands I join his cause-a cause I know and want nothing to do with. Even if Skarde is just as gorgeous as his brother, he's a loose cannon. Whereas Torsten is dark and brooding, Skarde is cocky and demanding. The two can't stand each other and, at this point, I'm starting to agree with them both. Regardless, now I'm not only involved in something I don't understand, I'm in over my head. In over my head = Viking wolf shifters, jealous and vengeful goddesses, and the start of the first of three winters which will doom mankind. Learning I possess the blood of the Valkyrie (from Odin) as well as the blood of the witches (from Freya), I'm straddling the line between both pantheons of gods. Stuck in the eye of the storm, I have no idea how to get out...

While pretending to find the perfect film backdrops, Mendez and a colleague succeeded in contacting the escapees, and smuggling them out of Iran. Antonio Mendez finally details the extraordinarily complex and dangerous operation he led more than three decades ago. A riveting story of secret identities and international intrigue, Argo is the gripping account of the history-making collusion between Hollywood and high-stakes espionage.

Download or read book A Second Look written by Andie Peterson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2007-10-19 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four-hundred-twenty-five books are reviewed in this superb collection. A Second Look, Native Americans in Childrens Books gives a thorough examination of the books as a guide for parents, teachers, librarians, and administrators interested in books for children. Anyone involved in selecting books will find this guide useful in working through the maze of available materials. Andie Peterson, one of the few women to be awarded an Eagle Feather, has provided a meaningful criteria to help in judging books. She outlines ways for objectively studying books to draw conclusions as to the suitability for the reader. She writes candidly about books filled with stereotypes, hurtful images, and damaging text and illustrations. She writes eloquent, glowing reviews of the books that are real treasures. She writes: On a daily basis, children must face the hidden curriculum that lets them know where they fit in, whether they can achieve their goals, whether they even dare to dream. An overwhelming part of that hidden curriculum begins with books that are more narrative and illustrations; they are books that carry a message of politics and values. Andie advises that in selecting Native American books, the non-Native child must be considered, also. She counsels that hurtful books set in motion attitudes of prejudice that persist for years. She states that she has reviewed books with older copyrights because they are still on the shelves in libraries and available via the Internet. She says reading the older books helps to understand how adults have formed ideas about Native people. She says: After all, if its in a book in the library, people believe it to be true. Its time to disturb the peace and end the ritual of damage. A Second Look, Native Americans in Childrens Books By Andie Peterson
