Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Emily Calandrelli—Emmy-nominated host of Xploration Outer Space, correspondent on Bill Nye Saves the World, and graduate of MIT—comes the fifth novel in a fun illustrated chapter book series about an eight-year-old girl with a knack for science, math, and solving mysteries with technology. Third grader and inventor extraordinaire Ada Lace is on spring break. But it’s just a little less relaxing than she’d imagined. Nina is beside herself with excitement about meeting her favorite artist and enlists Ada and Mr. Peebles’s coding-whiz nephew to help revamp her online portfolio. When Nina finally meets Miroir, he snubs her, and her confidence is shaken—but not enough to miss the art show opening. While there, Ada spots a suspiciously familiar painting that may mean Miroir isn’t the original he claims to be. Will the friends be able to reveal the artist’s true nature, before he fools someone else?

Book excerpt: “This land was made for you and me.” This is the emphatic refrain of Woody Guthrie’s iconic anthem, a profound rendering of one of our nation’s most sacred truths. Yet, for far too many and for far too long, this hasn’t felt like a land made for them, or one that even wants them. And that’s just not sustainable. This Land Is Your Land (TLIYL) is a telling of our social story through the lens of the American people, how we became who we are and who we're in the process of becoming. It’s about the systems we built, both generative and degenerative, from democracy and equality to slavery and social supremacy, and how everything about us is changing. Right this minute, we’re in the midst of the greatest sociological shift in U.S. history, one where, in every way we currently measure, we’ll soon be a post-majority nation. By 2045, incumbent majorities, from racial whiteness to Christianization to heteronormativity will all be downgraded to minority status. This “Time of Turmoil”, one where everything’s shifting, is why we’re experiencing so much unrest and instability, from rising poverty to increasingly caustic elections to diminishing human regard. But it's also why getting this right has never been more important or mattered more. A combination of personal vignettes and cultural analysis, TLIYL covers 300+ years of shared history, one that’s been shaped by nearly 550 million lives lived, and explores how, together, we move forward. It’s a story with three parts: Part One: How the American Race Construct (ARC) and other toxic frameworks impaired us; Part Two: How the Degenerative Cycle (DGC) and other predatory processes imperiled us (Part Two); and Part Three: How through personal practices like the Four Actions, each of us can help us become a society that embraces all of us. Today, we find ourselves in a bit of a tough place. But instead of an ending, this shift we’re undergoing might actually be a beginning – a chance to both make our founding dreams real and gift the future a future. And in doing so, we transform ourselves into a new land, one, as Woody sang, made for you and me.

Book excerpt: Moral outrage is one of the most compelling, complex, and powerful emotional responses. It is the affective currency that drives collective action in a democracy, where it can rally constituents, incentivize legislation, affect how we vote, and catalyze individual anger into righteous protests or mob rule. In recent years, outrage has bolstered extremism and political polarization, and it spurred thousands of self-prescribed "patriots" to storm the U.S. capitol. But it also gave birth to new social justice groups such as Black Lives Matter and March for Our Lives, and what began as an outraged tweet ultimately grew into the global #MeToo movement. This book offers the first interdisciplinary study of the myriad ways moral outrage is articulated, invoked, and mediated in contemporary U.S. society, from feminist and indigenous politics, climate activism, and school curriculum debates, to book banning, alt-right rhetoric, literature and entertainment venues. Setting its focus on the social dynamics and cultural effects of collective outrage, these timely essays underscore its vital function as a galvanizing force in identity politics, social change, policymaking and civic engagement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smart, sublime, and wickedly clever, The Smash-Up captures—then transcends—our current polarized moment “An exhilarating ride . . . hilarious . . . a modern and energetic story about a marriage on the skids.”—The New York Times Ethan has always been one of the good guys, and for years, nobody has appreciated this fact more than his wife, Zo. Until now. Jolted into activism by the 2016 election, Zo’s transformed their home into the headquarters for the local resistance, turning their comfortable decades-long marriage inside-out. Meanwhile, their boisterous daughter, Alex, grows wilder by the day. Ethan’s former business partner needs help saving the media company they’d co-founded. Financial disaster looms. Enter a breezy, blue-haired millennial making her way through the gig economy. Suddenly Ethan faces a choice unlike any he’s ever had to make. Unfolding over fivet urbulent days in 2018, The Smash-Up wrestles shrewdly with some of the biggest questions of our time: What, exactly, does it mean to be a good guy? What will it take for men to break the “bro code”? How does the world respond when a woman demands more? Can we ever understand another's experiences… and what are the consequences of failing to try? Moving, funny, and cathartic, this portrait of a marriage—and a nation—under strain is, ultimately, a magic trick of empathy, one that will make you laugh and squirm until its final, breathless pages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In these pointed and wide–ranging essays, Wendy Willis explores everything from personal resistance to the rise of political podcasts, civic loneliness to the exploitation of personal data, public outrage to the opioid crisis—all with a poet's gift for finding the sacred in the mundane, a hope in the dark. One of the country's sharpest observers of politics, art, and the American spirit, Willis returns often to the demanding question posed by Czech writer, activist, and politician Václav Havel: What does it mean to live in truth? Her view is honed by her place as a poet, as a mother, and, when necessary, as an activist. Together, the essays in These Are Strange Times, My Dear work within that largely unmapped place where the heartbreaks and uncertainties of one's inner life brush up against the cruelties and responsibilities of politics and government and our daily lives."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban sprawl is omnipresent in America and has left many citizens questioning their ability to stop it. In Distant Publics, Jenny Rice examines patterns of public discourse that have evolved in response to development in urban and suburban environments. Centering her study on Austin, Texas, Rice finds a city that has simultaneously celebrated and despised development. Rice outlines three distinct ways that the rhetoric of publics counteracts development: through injury claims, memory claims, and equivalence claims. In injury claims, rhetors frame themselves as victims in a dispute. Memory claims allow rhetors to anchor themselves to an older, deliberative space, rather than to a newly evolving one. Equivalence claims see the benefits on both sides of an issue, and here rhetors effectively become nonactors. Rice provides case studies of development disputes that place the reader in the middle of real-life controversies and evidence her theories of claims-based public rhetorics. She finds that these methods comprise the most common (though not exclusive) vernacular surrounding development and shows how each is often counterproductive to its own goals. Rice further demonstrates that these claims create a particular role or public subjectivity grounded in one's own feelings, which serves to distance publics from each other and the issues at hand. Rice argues that rhetoricians have a duty to transform current patterns of public development discourse so that all individuals may engage in matters of crisis. She articulates its sustainability as both a goal and future disciplinary challenge of rhetorical studies and offers tools and methodologies toward that end.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • With stark poignancy and political dispassion Tightrope addresses the crisis in working-class America while focusing on solutions to mend a half century of governmental failure. This must-read book from the authors of Half the Sky “shows how we can and must do better” (Katie Couric). "A deft and uniquely credible exploration of rural America, and of other left-behind pockets of our country. One of the most important books I've read on the state of our disunion."—Tara Westover, author of Educated Drawing us deep into an “other America,” the authors tell this story, in part, through the lives of some of the people with whom Kristof grew up, in rural Yamhill, Oregon. It’s an area that prospered for much of the twentieth century but has been devastated in the last few decades as blue-collar jobs disappeared. About a quarter of the children on Kristof’s old school bus died in adulthood from drugs, alcohol, suicide, or reckless accidents. While these particular stories unfolded in one corner of the country, they are representative of many places the authors write about, ranging from the Dakotas and Oklahoma to New York and Virginia. With their superb, nuanced reportage, Kristof and WuDunn have given us a book that is both riveting and impossible to ignore.

Download or read book Know. Be. Live.® written by John D. Basie and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Know. Be. Live.® is a groundbreaking work that addresses cultural challenges and potential solutions to making disciples of Generation Z. Over the last few years, the literature on Generation Z has grown rapidly. However, there is little that directly addresses the destructive cultural challenges to proactive disciplemaking in this generation. Know. Be. Live.® offers a holistic 360-degree approach to discipleship in a post-Christian era. It combines expert thought on faith and culture to equip Christ-following parents of teenagers, college students, campus ministers, and pastors. Addressing the obstacles to deep discipleship and spiritual formation within Gen Z, Know. Be. Live.® approaches this subject matter from a comprehensive biblical perspective that ties together the intellectual (Know), character (Be), and calling (Live) elements of discipleship. Contributors: Philip Alsup, John Basie, Hunter Baker, Ed and Dana Bort, Stephanie Shackelford, Gene Fant, Nathan Finn, Melissa Pellew, Sean McDowell, J. P. Moreland, Jonathan Morrow, Jacob Shatzer, John Stonestreet, Kyle Strobel, and John W. White III. Praise for KNOW. BE. LIVE.® “With a focus on serious Christian thinking, whole life discipleship, spiritual formation, cultural engagement, and readiness for ministry, these timely and thoughtful essays will serve as a remarkable resource for readers.” — David S. Dockery, president, International Alliance for Christian Education and distinguished professor of Theology, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary • • • “Know. Be. Live. is a much-needed resource that will provide Christ-following business leaders, ministry leaders, and anyone who has the opportunity to develop Gen Z leaders with tools to disciple them in a transformative, biblically-faithful way.” — Cheryl Bachelder, board member at Chick-fil-A Inc. and US Food Holdings Corp., author, Dare to Serve • • • “When co-founding Impact 360 Institute fifteen years ago, my husband, John, and I were burdened to equip the next generation of Christlike believers to Know, Be, and Live out the Gospel. The Institute has far exceeded our vision to include multiple programs, resources, and now, the book you hold in your hand. For Christian leaders discipling the next generation, you’ll find this to be an excellent resource to challenge and inspire you to holistically develop Gen Z and beyond.” —Trudy Cathy White, Chick-fil-A ambassador • • • “Know. Be. Live. is for all who desire to live faithfully and for all those who want to encourage and equip the younger generation to do just that. Dig in; there is much wisdom in these pages.” —Samuel “Dub” Oliver, president, Union University • • • “Know. Be. Live. is an absolute treasure trove of insight for discipling Gen Z. An ensemble of experienced experts navigate readers through the conundrums of our strange and confused cultural moment with biblical clarity and conviction. If you care about seeing up-and-coming generations marked by a deep passion for the Great Commission, the Great Commandment, and the Cultural Mandate, then this is the resource for you!” — Thaddeus Williams, professor of Systematic Theology, Biola University/Talbot School of Theology, author, Reflect, Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth, and God Reforms Hearts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Widening the Circle is a passionate, even radical argument for creating school and classroom environments where all kids, including children labeled as "disabled" and "special needs," are welcome on equal terms. In opposition to traditional models of special education, where teachers decide when a child is deemed "ready to compete" in "mainstream" classes, Mara Sapon-Shevin articulates a vision of full inclusion as a practical and moral goal. Inclusion, she argues, begins not with the assumption that students have to earn their way into the classroom with their behavior or skills, it begins with the right of every child to be in the mainstream of education, perhaps with modifications, adaptations, and support. Full inclusion requires teachers to think about all aspects of their classrooms—pedagogy, curriculum, and classroom climate. Crucially, Sapon-Shevin takes on arguments against full inclusion in a section of straight-talking answers to common questions. She agrees with critics that the rhetoric of inclusion has been used to justify eliminating services and "dumping" students with significant educational needs unceremoniously back into the mainstream with little or no support. If full inclusion is properly implemented, however, she argues, it not only clearly benefits those traditionally excluded but enhances the educations and lives of those considered mainstream in myriad ways. Through powerful storytelling and argument, Sapon-Shevin lays out the moral and educational case for not separating kids on the basis of difference.

Download or read book 'Black Lives Matter' written by Lucia Abbamonte and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-12 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on the ongoing protest in the US against racial discrimination and racial profiling, which often result in the loss of black lives at the hands of police agents, a phenomenon that has recently attracted unprecedented media attention. The topics dealt with here, such as the relevance of the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement, are currently included in a variety of education curricula in the US, and, in like manner, this book can be used in first and second level degrees in linguistic and cultural studies, communication, media studies and political sciences. It contains well-developed methodological sections (with tables, figures, graphs and notes), where the tenets of critical discourse analysis are concisely illustrated from its Foucauldian roots up to the more recent developments of multimodal critical discourse analysis and positive discourse analysis, as well as the contribution of the Sidney School with their emphasis on mapping culture through narrative genres and the wealth of resources for discourse analysis provided by the appraisal framework.
