In his absence, Min and his family do their best to keep their produce business afloat and earn enough support to get Min's father released. But the FBI won't release his father, and soon, Min and his family are forced into an incarceration camp in Colorado.Imprisoned on the dusty plains and facing both the pain of displacement and the injustice of being incarcerated by his own country, Min must learn to adapt and to find beauty-and strength-where most wouldn't.Cowritten by Jolene Gutiérrez, author of Too Much! and Mamiachi &amp; Me, and illustrated by acclaimed illustrator Chris Sasaki, this is an inspiring and powerful picture book. Share it with young readers who are asking questions about justice, belonging, and what it means to be American.Lying in bed at night, Min thinks about things he's lost: his family's home and business, Puppy, and most of all, Papa.&nbsp; Min clutches his stone, hoping to see his father again.

This book explores topics related to sustainability, including the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and accountability in various activities. It reflects the complex and diverse landscape of sustainability efforts in organizations and the pursuit of SDGs. It emphasizes that achieving global change and making the world a better place isn't a straightforward, linear process but rather a conglomerate of diverse and interconnected journeys driven by countless parties with individual interests and systemic conditions.
Recognizing the impossibility of creating a comprehensive "Big Picture" covering all facets, the authors' ambition is to contribute to the discussion on sustainability and SDG coverage through inspiring use cases. The book illustrates how the Three-Pillar-Model leads to sustainability and SDG coverage. It emphasizes the importance of a strong Sustainable Purpose, mindset transformation in organizations, and cross-silo cooperation for success.

The book features contributions from various authors and institutions from all over the world, including (former) leaders of UN agencies, NGOs, enterprises, venture capital funds and angel investor communities, consultancies, universities, historians, system theorists, philosophers and linguists. The chapters also provide diverse perspectives and historical cases to facilitate learning and exploration in this vast field.

Acclaimed international correspondent Sally Hayden has spent her career covering some of the darkest moments of our time, and yet even in the face of unimaginable adversity, she's witnessed the love and care of everyday people.Hayden introduces us to a couple separated by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and a mother in northeast Nigeria who risks everything to save her daughter from forced marriage to Boko Haram militants. We meet a group of Syrian women searching tirelessly for their missing spouses and children, while launching a call for justice, and learn about letters from the bereaved to the dead, still being written over a decade after the tsunami that devastated Japan.In stories that crisscross the globe, from Uganda to Lebanon, Rwanda to Iraq, Hayden asks us: what if news was recounted through the actions people take for those they love? Would it become harder to dehumanise those who seem different to us? This is Also a Love Story dares us to recognise how love can be found in even the most difficult of times, and to question what might be needed to create a better world.'Moving ...

Let Me Go Mad in My Own Way

This book explores how COVID-19 represents an inflection point for re-thinking and re-making democracy across the English-speaking world in an age where states are facing a future of overlapping crises. Years after the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic started to unfold, have we yet learned the deep lessons essential to maintaining and improving democracy to meet crisis challenges? Produced with the benefit of distance from the most acute period of the pandemic, the book contextualises the COVID-19 crisis as revealing pre-existing vulnerabilities and intensifying challenges of governance, inclusion, and distrust, while also spurring democratic innovation and shifting the parameters for reform. Six national case studies - Australia, Ireland, Canada, Aotearoa New Zealand, UK and USA - reveal the heterogeneity of the Anglosphere as an imagined democratic space. Viewed in the round, pandemic responses ranged from the chaotic to the internationally lauded, although even the latter have featured acute deficiencies in democratic practice, which underscores the need to gather the lessons learned. Yet, in all states, the public and political temptation to simply move on, in an act of communal forgetting and collective return to "normalcy," presents a real risk of failing to prepare for more democratic future crisis responses. This collection takes the long view, approaching its subject from multiple perspectives that examine the heterogeneity of the Anglosphere as an imagined democratic space. Taking a cross-disciplinary approach and bringing together both leading and emerging experts on democracy, constitutionalism, and the rule of law, this book powerfully combines the insights of retrospective analysis with future-focused contemplation of where our democracies are heading.
