Although most Kenyan girls were not educated, Wangari, curious and hardworking, was allowed to go to school. There, her mind sprouted like a seed. She excelled at science and went on to study in the United States. After returning home, Wangari blazed a trail across Kenya, using her knowledge and compassion to promote the rights of her countrywomen and to help save the land, one tree at a time.

She bristles at the small-mindedness that permeates life in her small Ohio community, and she sees little chance of a satisfying future there. She has a little money saved, and after turning the tables on a crooked gambler who had fleeced several locals, including her younger brother, she can stake a new start for herself and her three sisters. As the gambler's threats of revenge echo in her ears, she and her sisters head to Independence, Missouri, to join a wagon train bound for Oregon. Knowing that four women traveling together will draw unwanted attention, Larkspur dons a disguise, passing herself off as "Clark" Nielsen, accompanying his three sisters. But maintaining the ruse is more difficult than Larkspur imagined, as is protecting her headstrong, starry-eyed sisters from difficult circumstances and eligible young men. Will reaching their goal prove too much for them?

Download or read book The Seed Keeper written by Diane Wilson and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A haunting novel spanning several generations, The Seed Keeper follows a Dakhóta family’s struggle to preserve their way of life, and their sacrifices to protect what matters most. Rosalie Iron Wing has grown up in the woods with her father, Ray, a former science teacher who tells her stories of plants, of the stars, of the origins of the Dakhóta people. Until, one morning, Ray doesn’t return from checking his traps. Told she has no family, Rosalie is sent to live with a foster family in nearby Mankato—where the reserved, bookish teenager meets rebellious Gaby Makespeace, in a friendship that transcends the damaged legacies they’ve inherited. On a winter’s day many years later, Rosalie returns to her childhood home. A widow and mother, she has spent the previous two decades on her white husband’s farm, finding solace in her garden even as the farm is threatened first by drought and then by a predatory chemical company. Now, grieving, Rosalie begins to confront the past, on a search for family, identity, and a community where she can finally belong. In the process, she learns what it means to be descended from women with souls of iron—women who have protected their families, their traditions, and a precious cache of seeds through generations of hardship and loss, through war and the insidious trauma of boarding schools. Weaving together the voices of four indelible women, The Seed Keeper is a beautifully told story of reawakening, of remembering our original relationship to the seeds and, through them, to our ancestors.
Download or read book Seeds of Change written by Tim L. Adsit and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a time of cultural revolution and civil war, Reverends Glyn and Jean Adsit were missionaries in rural Hofei, China. The political unrest led to many harrowing experiences, as the two were shot at, arrested, incarcerated, and had to flee for their lives when caught in the middle of two advancing armies. In his book, Seeds of Change, Dr. Tim L. Adsit tells the story of his parents' time in China—their struggles and their triumphs. Adsit gives the reader the opportunity to relive the missionary lives of Reverends Glyn and Jean. He provides a rare and unforgettable glimpse into day-to-day missionary life, service, and adventures. One of the greatest contributions of this book is that it traces the general history of the Disciples of Christ missionary movement in China from 1886 to 1951. Also included are never-before-published primary sources to add to the history of the era and work on the mission field in China. '...Here we have a story which began in a simpler, more generous time. It's a story about a couple who struggled like the rest of us with the common, debilitating issues of life, and yet made life-long decisions flowing not from self-interest, but from compassion for others...It's a love story—not only of the deep, selfless love that Glyn and Jean had for each other, but the preeminent love they both had for Jesus Christ...We don't get to read stories like this much anymore.' —Chris Adsit, Director of Disciplemakers International and Director of Resource Initiatives, Military Ministry
Book Synopsis Seeds of Blood and Beauty by : Ann Lindsay
Download or read book Seeds of Blood and Beauty written by Ann Lindsay and published by Birlinn Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeds of Blood and Beauty follows the exploits of the great Scottish plant collectors of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; men who left their native shores in search of exotic specimens, often risking life and limb for the sake of botany in some of the world’s most remote and dangerous places. Ann Lindsay introduces a large and varied cast of explorers, featuring men such as William Wright (1735–1810), who left the quiet Fife town of Crieff for Jamaica, and Aberdonian Francis Masson (1741–1805), who metamorphosed from an introspective under-gardener at Kew Gardens to an intrepid pioneer who faced gangs of bandits and poisonous snakes in Africa in pursuit of new botanical discoveries. As well as providing insights into the purposes and practicalities of scientific exploration over three centuries and examining the astonishing contribution these pioneers made in their field, Seeds of Blood and Beauty also shows how social change in Britain and abroad influenced botanical research and how this was reflected in Scotland's gardens. The result is a fascinating and informative book combining biography, history and horticulture.

Book excerpt: In the tradition of Octavia Butler, here is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help to shape the futures we want. Change is constant. The world, our bodies, and our minds are in a constant state of flux. They are a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, Emergent Strategy teaches us to map and assess the swirling structures and to read them as they happen, all the better to shape that which ultimately shapes us, personally and politically. A resolutely materialist spirituality based equally on science and science fiction: a wild feminist and afro-futurist ride! adrienne maree brown, co-editor of Octavia’s Brood: Science Fiction from Social Justice Movements, is a social justice facilitator, healer, and doula living in Detroit.
