Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing incisive commentary on the historical and contemporary American working class experience, Banded Together: Economic Democratization in the Brass Valley documents a community's efforts to rebuild and revitalize itself in the aftermath of deindustrialization. Through powerful oral histories and other primary sources, Jeremy Brecher tells the story of a group of average Americans--factory workers, housewives, parishioners, and organizers--who tried to create a democratic alternative to the economic powerlessness caused by the closing of factories in the Connecticut Naugatuck Valley region during the 1970s and 1980s. This volume focuses on grassroots organization, democratically controlled enterprises, and supportive public policies, providing examples from the Naugatuck Valley Project community-alliance that remain relevant to the economic problems of today and tomorrow. Drawing on more than a hundred interviews with Project leaders, staff, and other knowledgeable members of the local community, Brecher illustrates how the Naugatuck Valley Project served as a vehicle for community members to establish greater control over their economic lives.

Book excerpt: It’s summer 1999 and the members of the Hamilton-Kellaher clan are on their way to Daybreak, their family cottage on Lake Pemichangan, Quebec. With his newly minted driver’s licence, sixteen-year-old Connor drives his step-sister, Francis, and their chosen brother, Jesse, to the lake. Last fall, after learning that Jesse was homeless, dying from leukemia and in desperate need of a bone marrow transplant, Connor had organized a donor drive at his school. To everyone’s amazement, his mother, Fiona, turned out to be a perfect match. Not just perfect, but a blood relation! As the young people forge stronger bonds, and Connor woos the U.S. Ambassador’s daughter next door, Fiona suspects Jesse’s late mother, who turned out to be her long-lost adopted sister, is also related to the local Algonquin First Nation. To prove the familial link, Fiona must unearth a family secret long hidden from her by her mother. As Fiona homes in on Jesse’s link to his Indigenous mother and her own adopted sister, all will learn that family is far more than just biology and DNA.

Download or read book Band Together written by Mirit Eliraz and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2006-09-13 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From The Joshua Tree to Blood Sugar Sex Magik, from Automatic for the People to OK Computer, they produced some of the most memorable rock albums of the post-punk era. Beyond the music, though, the members of U2, R.E.M., Radiohead and the Red Hot Chili Peppers share several common bonds. Having emerged from punk's do-it-yourself ethos, they embody collective creativity over individual artistry. With the exception of the Chili Peppers' revolving-door guitarists, each band's lineup has remained stable while the groups outlasted most of their contemporaries. The twin factors of group-inspired music and long-term collaboration make these four bands important case studies in modern rock and roll. With a focus on creative dynamics, author Mirit Eliraz studies four of the most popular, critically acclaimed, and prolific rock bands of the last quarter century. Introductory chapters offer band bios; reasons for formation; and each group's friends, collaborators and business partners. Middle chapters discuss the governing structures and general relations within the bands; obstacles to unity and survival; how diverse elements are merged into a productive whole; role divisions; the collaborative process; and life on the road. Concluding chapters cover external influences on band dynamics; the evolution of each band's communal life; and challenges to the band paradigm.

This book was released on 2023-09-21 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do so many powerful people on Earth often go to Antarctica? What do they know about us that is important? Is Antarctica the kingdom of the antichrist? One thing is certain: the hybrid offspring of Lucifer for millennia have been interacting and working to pervert Creation and persecute humanity. We see this from the iniquitous laws of a ruling class in corrupt and evil-minded power. It is written that Enoch and the prophet Elijah will return for the final battle against the antichrist. And it doesn’t seem to be that far off. Knowing is defending and reacting. Enjoy reading.

These officials have been abusing the trust that the American taxpayers have given to our elected officials. For over fifty years the Democratic and the Republican parties have created a system of government that has provided a pot of gold for themselves. This book contains examples of the power structure that the Democrats and the Republicans have created. The book also contains solutions to solve the economic crisis that looms over America. The question is, "Will the American taxpayer take charge of their own future and the future of their children?"
