This is a tale of human obsession, one intrepid tuna, the dedicated fisherman who caught and set her free, the promises and limits of ocean science and the big truth of how our insatiable appetite for bluefin transformed a cottage industry into a global dilemma.

Tuna and the Future of our Oceans

Bringing together diverse case studies and interdisciplinary perspectives, this open access collection serves as the first in-depth examination of queer and trans displacement in East Africa. The collection features original creative works by queer and trans diasporic writers and artists with first-hand experiences of displacement. The last decade has seen a sharp rise in state-sponsored homophobia and transphobia in East Africa. This includes discriminatory legislation, such as the widely condemned Anti-Homosexuality Act in Uganda, and government-initiated crackdowns, such as the 'anti-gay taskforce' launched in Tanzania in 2018. The politicisation of sexual and gender rights in the region is often presented as a moral crusade (i.e. a return to traditional/family values) and is enacted with the support of many religious and cultural leaders. It is within this context that an ever-increasing number of LGBTQI+ people are leaving their homes and seeking protection elsewhere. But East Africa cannot be reduced to a site from which LGBTQI+ displacement emanates. Several countries in the region act as either host countries or transit points, even as they produce LGBTQI+ refugees of their own. These complex social, political and legal dynamics make East Africa a productive site for theorising queer and trans displacement. The region offers insights into how, when and why LGBTQI+ Africans move, the social obstacles they face, and the different survival strategies they deploy. Despite this, research on East African queer and trans displacements remains sparse. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Bloomsbury Open Collections Library Collective.

What can one city tell us about the global textile waste problem? This Open Access study is the first detailed ethnography of clothing waste infrastructures that starts where the problem starts - the Global North. Based on more than 100 interviews, cultural anthropologist Heike Derwanz follows the journey of fast fashion in Hamburg, Germany: starting with two women from different socio-economic backgrounds sorting through their wardrobes, travelling through local flea markets, eBay, church clothes banks, upcycling brands and recycling sites, only to end up in homes and waste heaps in the Global South. Bringing together human agents such as designers, social workers and vintage sellers with objects from containers, plastic sacks and internet platforms to piles of sorted textiles, this on-the-ground cultural study reveals how the global economic system of fast fashion shapes local infrastructures entangled in everyday lives. Combining material culture, waste studies and economic perspectives to scrutinize the so-called circular economy of today's global textile recycling market, Derwanz investigates what agency modern consumers really have in the lifecycle of their clothes.

A physician's candid guide to self-discovery and organizational effectiveness in the pursuit of health equity.In Healing in a Changing America, Dr. George Rust offers advice on improving health equity especially targeted to the people who need to hear it most: white men, many of whom are in leadership positions throughout health care systems and medical education. He shares lessons learned pursuing health equity in diverse settings on his personal journey as a white male physician, from training in a large urban public hospital and practicing in a rural farmworker clinic to teaching and leading in a historically Black medical school. This candid guide confronts uncomfortable truths and nuances of privilege, systemic inequities, and the role that leaders must play in creating inclusive, equitable health systems. How can we ensure diversity and build trust and strength within a health care organization? How do we know when our voice will be helpful--and when it will drown out others'? Through deeply personal and memorable stories, Rust addresses these questions and more. Drawing from decades of experience as an educator, physician, and advocate, he charts a roadmap for individuals willing to confront their own biases and embrace the challenges of fostering diversity and equity in health care. From building trust and empowering underrepresented voices to promoting structural changes in medical education and practice, Rust shares the mistakes and successes of his own experience to equip readers with practical tools to effect meaningful change. Healing in a Changing America offers profound insight into the transformative power of humility, listening, and learning. Whether navigating the complexities of organizational leadership or grappling with societal shifts, this essential work inspires readers to become true allies in the pursuit of justice and equity.
