Griner D: The Armenian Genocide

The Armenian Genocide

Loss, Survival, and the Fight to Remember

A long-overdue analysis of how Black lesbians have asserted their lived experience through creative practice, pushing back against heteropatriarchal systems that deny them visibility.
 
 "We Must Document Ourselves Now" examines the essential but oft-ignored importance of Black lesbian literature and film in queer literary and film histories, arguing that Black lesbian cultural texts reflect creators' lived experiences and resist the heteropatriarchal systems that deny Black lesbians visibility in popular culture. Stephanie Andrea Allen contends that these texts have three goals: to lay bare the experiences of Black lesbians in a raced, gendered, classed, and homophobic society; to challenge the notion that claiming Black lesbian identity is marginal or forbidden; and to take care of Black lesbians by bearing witness to their experiences through creative practice.
 
 Insisting that Black feminist creative practice is an integral form of self and community care, Allen weaves analysis of cultural output spanning key sociocultural moments from 1974 to 2020 with interviews with Black lesbian cultural workers. "We Must Document Ourselves Now" examines the Black Arts / Black Power movement, the "boom" in lesbian and gay publishing, the so-called golden era of Black film, and twenty-first-century visual media to demonstrate how representations of Black lesbians, or lack thereof, were vital to constructing a cultural canon that focused on illuminating Black lesbian experiences in the United States.

Civilisation (Esprios Classics)

Kamal Shair's book is a classic rags to riches story: the village boy, who with determination and education, achieves business success, wealth, more wealth, and then influence and power. What makes it unusual is that it emanates from the Arab world. Rarely among Arabs have individuals from thoroughly modest backgrounds, with no access to links, networks or connections become truly global commercial players. Shair was born in a small town in what was then Transjordan and dragged himself through school (his mother was illiterate), moved to college in Beirut, then sailed off to America (Michigan and Yale) and returned to the Middle East to create a multinational corporate empire engaged in trade, construction and manufacturing. Dar al Handasah - Arabic for House of Engineers - was founded in a small flat in Beirut and today, spans the globe with offices in 37 countries. In its early years, Dar al Handasah fought off competition from established western consultancies to win contracts for prestige engineering throughout the Middle East. Eventually, its activities extended further to Europe, the United States, Africa and Asia. By not following the usual pattern of patronage and favours, Kamal Shair applied a fresh kind of ethic in an environment with a loosely-structured business ethic. In the process, he lived through and witnessed at first hand and at close quarters some of the most dramatic events of the modern Arab world. This is quite an extraordinary tale and a very original prism through which to read the turbulent post-World War II history of the Middle East. At the same time we see the growth, despite all the odds, of one of the world's great engineering and business enterprises in a narrative of epic and inspirational proportions.

VOODOO ECONOMICS TO MAGA AND THE PILLAGING OF THE WORKING CLASS: CAN DEMOCRACY SURVIVE THE RIGHT-WING ASSAULT? by Howard Gunn is a provocative examination of the political and economic landscape in America. The book explores how right-wing ideologies have exploited the working class since the founding of the nation with the working class in poverty and a substantial portion of the working class in slavery.
Howard traces the development of our economy, our democracy, and the conservative right-wing evolution from "Voodoo Economics-a term famously used to critique tax cuts for the wealthy and trickle-down governance policies to the MAGA moverment and its Gilded Age Robber Baron ideology challenging the foundations of democracy, today.
Through his historical analysis and sharp commentary, the book investigates the mechanisms of economic exploitation and political manipulation. He raises urgent questions about the future of our democratic institutions in the face of escalating Republican assaults.
Mr. Gunn's work is both a warning and a call to action to preserve our democratic government model of the people, by the people and for the people. The book was written for those concerned about preserving democratic values for posterity in the turbulent twenty-first century conflict that includes Republican recessions, government shutdowns and No King rallies against the dark forces of right-wing Robber Barons and their conservative Plutocracy model, pitted against democracy.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman (née Perkins; July 3, 1860 - August 17, 1935), also known by her first married name Charlotte Perkins Stetson, was an American humanist, novelist, writer, lecturer, advocate for social reform, and eugenicist. She was a utopian feminist and served as a role model for future generations of feminists because of her unorthodox concepts and lifestyle. She has been inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame. Her best remembered work today is her semi-autobiographical short story "The Yellow Wallpaper", which she wrote after a severe bout of postpartum psychosis.

The TV and Movie industries created the Italian American stereotypes we know today. 
These stereotypes don't reflect the extraordinary impacts of Italian American individuals of all ages and economic backgrounds on the cultural and economic advancement of the United States to address this, the Italian American Reputation Lab (IARL) is presenting an analytic report on how the historical and current Italian diaspora depict a very different narrative than the mainstream media of how Italian-Americans have contributed to shaping the cultural and economic fabric of the United States.

He's a publisher, a filmmaker, and a producer of both feature films and documentaries which are available on Amazon Prime and Pluto.

How to Be a Personal Story Mentor

Over the past two decades, Latin American politicians and activists have reckoned with their nations' histories of racism, forced displacement of native peoples, and inequality by acknowledging Indigenous communities as peoples preexisting the modern states. In Argentina-a nation long fixated on presenting itself as "white" and "European"-this shift has been dramatic. After decades of erasure and racism toward Indigenous peoples, Argentinian civil society is identifying Indigenous groups as not just an element from the past, but as nations central to the country's culturally plural and multiracial identity.
 
 In Urban Indigenous Assemblages, Ana Vivaldi considers how Argentina's urban Indigenous population fits into this recent political and social movement. To do this, she focuses on how the Qom Indigenous people-whose traditional territories are in northern Argentina-have moved to Buenos Aires, made homes in shantytowns alongside other migrants, and remade urban space by building Indigenous lives in the city. Starting from a Qom barrio in Greater Buenos Aires, Vivaldi traces how Qom peoples' travels to rural communities and movement across the city create complex networks and produce an urban life always in connection to other places. She argues that urban racialized indigeneities represent sites of contradictory relations visible and invisible to state actors and hypervisible to development agencies, as the Qom are expected to prove their authenticity and remove themselves from important relationships with nonwhite neighbors to access rights and recognition.
 
 Based on eighteen months of fieldwork, this book analyzes the historical process that created the barrio: the constant remaking of this Indigenous space in interaction with state institutions and NGOs, the links between the barrio and northern Argentina through travels "far out" to rural communities in the Chaco, and the expansion of "Indigenous territories" beyond bounded location.

This book explores how digital acceleration and algorithmic mediation have transformed the temporal structure of modern journalism. It considers journalism to be a temporal institution that must balance speed with reflection and automation with human interpretation. Drawing on sociological theories, the book examines practices such as slow journalism and local storytelling, which seek to resist the culture of immediacy. Through qualitative research and case studies, the book puts forward the "downbeat" as a metaphor for reclaiming journalistic time - an alternative rhythm through which depth, resonance and ethical awareness can once again define the meaning and public value of news in the digital age.

Out of Time

This book invites a reorientation of tourism towards accountability, restorative practices and social impact This book examines the dominant profit-driven paradigms that have traditionally underpinned tourism development. By bridging theory and practice, this book challenges conventional industry perspectives and advocates for a more sustainable and socially conscious approach to tourism development. It invites readers to question long-held assumptions, confront uncomfortable truths and engage with emergent ideas and practices that are pushing the boundaries of what socially responsible tourism can and should be. Through insightful case studies and empirical research, this book equips readers to rethink the social impact of tourism and demonstrates that profitability and accountability are not contradictory objectives but mutually reinforcing dimensions of resilient and regenerative tourism systems.
