Book excerpt: What are the roots of personal identity? In this collection of essays, James Morrison searches for answers within the experiences and emotional reality of his own childhood in an attempt to pinpoint the beginnings of his own gay self-identity. "Although from the vantage point of my present self, I do not remember a time in my life when I was not 'gay,' I know that the arrival at any avowed identity is always a complex process of affirmation and negation, refusal and identification." It is this process, and specifically the ways gay identity circulates before it is even spoken, that Morrison seeks to distill in specific experiences. From the beginnings of questioning his religion to exploring his first boyhood attraction, Morrison's experiences are chronicled honestly and compellingly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tom Duvall is number two in Creo Vargas's vast criminal empire in Southern California. Vargas orders a clean sweep of a rival's crack den, but when Tom finds a crack mother nursing her newborn child in the den, he kills his crew to protect her and her child. Before the three of them can get away, two strangers appear--a tattooed blonde surfer and a muscle-bound professor. They have come for Tom. Carla Vega is far from her poor Mexico village. She stays in luxury hotels in Miami Beach and owns a corvette. She also lures young girls into a trade that she was forced into at age thirteen. Lila is just any other little girl, so why does Carla care about her so much that she will risk everything to run with her? Carla's handlers catch them before they can run. Three strangers suddenly appear and prevent her handlers from harming her and Lila, but these same strangers have come for Carla. Reed Elliott wakes up in a strange studio apartment. Was he drugged the previous night? Reed is happy with his life as a meth dealer in Vegas, but has that life led him to this strange apartment? Reed hears voices coming from an air duct of the apartment, voices from a young man named Tom and a young woman named Carla. The Throwaways: Broken Fever is a look at the end times through the eyes of three young adults who have all but rejected the love of Jesus Christ. They are brought to the campus, where they witness supernatural events, are taught about their own unique gifts, and experience God's true love, compassion, and long-suffering nature. They must choose a path, one that could lead to prison, destruction, freedom, or salvation. Whatever their choice, their lives will be changed forever.
Download or read book Yellow Fever Race and Ecology in Nineteenth Century New Orleans written by Urmi Engineer Willoughby and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the innovative perspective of environment and culture, Urmi Engineer Willoughby examines yellow fever in New Orleans from 1796 to 1905. Linking local epidemics to the city’s place in the Atlantic world, Yellow Fever, Race, and Ecology in Nineteenth-Century New Orleans analyzes how incidences of and responses to the disease grew out of an environment shaped by sugar production, slavery, and urban development. Willoughby argues that transnational processes—including patterns of migration, industrialization, and imperialism—contributed to ecological changes that enabled yellow fever–carrying Aedes aëgypti mosquitoes to thrive and transmit the disease in New Orleans, challenging presumptions that yellow fever was primarily transported to the Americas on slave ships. She then traces the origin and spread of medical and popular beliefs about yellow fever immunity, from the early nineteenth-century contention that natives of New Orleans were protected, to the gradual emphasis on race as a determinant of immunity, reflecting social tensions over the abolition of slavery around the world. As the nineteenth century unfolded, ideas of biological differences between the races calcified, even as public health infrastructure expanded, and race continued to play a central role in the diagnosis and prevention of the disease. State and federal governments began to create boards and organizations responsible for preventing new outbreaks and providing care during epidemics, though medical authorities ignored evidence of black victims of yellow fever. Willoughby argues that American imperialist ambitions also contributed to yellow fever eradication and the growth of the field of tropical medicine: U.S. commercial interests in the tropical zones that grew crops like sugar cane, bananas, and coffee engendered cooperation between medical professionals and American military forces in Latin America, which in turn enabled public health campaigns to research and eliminate yellow fever in New Orleans. A signal contribution to the field of disease ecology, Yellow Fever, Race, and Ecology in Nineteenth-Century New Orleans delineates events that shaped the Crescent City’s epidemiological history, shedding light on the spread and eradication of yellow fever in the Atlantic World.
