Download or read book Ecowomanism at the Panam Canal written by Sofía Betancourt and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-02-09 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ecowomanism at the Panamá Canal: Black Women, Labor, and Environmental Ethics, Sofia Betancourt constructs a transnational ecowomanist ethic that reclaims inherited environmental cultures across multiple sites of displacement. Betancourt argues that women in the African diaspora have a unique understanding of how a moral refusal to compromise their humanity provides the very understanding needed to survive what was once an inconceivable level of environmental devastation. This work is guided by the experiences of West Indian women, imported to Panamá by the United States from across the Caribbean, whose labor supported the building of the Panamá Canal—the so-called silver men and women who faced mud, mosquitoes, and malaria while building a literal pathway to the American empire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1903. Wafer was an English naval surgeon who deserted to join the buccaneers. This volume recalls his adventures and observations of his expeditions to the Isthmus, the western coast of South America and the West Indies from 1680 to 1688. While crossing the Isthmus of Panama after the taking of Santa Maria, Wafer was injured and left in the care of Darien Indians. The Indians took a liking to him, which allowed him to gather material for this book. He was picked up by William Dampier, the English explorer and buccaneer. His book today is still recognized as a standard reference on the area.

Book excerpt: Jesus said in John 16:4, I am the way, the truth...; Jesus came to this world to destroy the works of the Devil; because Satan is a liar, and the father of it(John 8:44); when the truth is revealed to us we do not have or display any excitement about it and much less do we develop or acquire a mental capacity and ability to relate, understand and to accept anything as an absolute truth. The Bible is the sacred inspiration of God which contains divine and infinite truths.

Download or read book West Indian Tales of Old Classic Reprint written by Algernon E. Aspinall and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from West Indian Tales of Old The Caribbean Sea, which has been aptly described as the cockpit of the Empire, will shortly undergo a striking change. From being a mere cul-de-sac it will, now that the Panama Canal is completed, become one of the world's principal ocean highways and trade routes. One result of this will certainly be that an increasing number of visitors will patronise the British West Indian islands, and it occurred to me that it might be an opportune moment to re-tell, for their benefit, some of the tales connected with the West Indies, whose history is surrounded by a wealth of romance. Such is the origin of the present volume, in the compilation of which I have received much valuable assistance from Mr. N. Darnell Davis, C.M.G., the Hon. Arthur W. Holmes a Court, Mr. Cecil Headlam, Mr. Edgar Tripp, Mr. F. Sterns-Fadelle, Mr. Oscar Plummer, Mr. G. H. King, and other kind friends to whom I desire to express my indebtedness.

Download or read book Borderland on the Isthmus written by Michael E. Donoghue and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction, maintenance, and defense of the Panama Canal brought Panamanians, U.S. soldiers and civilians, West Indians, Asians, and Latin Americans into close, even intimate, contact. In this lively and provocative social history, Michael E. Donoghue positions the Panama Canal Zone as an imperial borderland where U.S. power, culture, and ideology were projected and contested. Highlighting race as both an overt and underlying force that shaped life in and beyond the Zone, Donoghue details how local traditions and colonial policies interacted and frequently clashed. Panamanians responded to U.S. occupation with proclamations, protests, and everyday forms of resistance and acquiescence. Although U.S. "Zonians" and military personnel stigmatized Panamanians as racial inferiors, they also sought them out for service labor, contraband, sexual pleasure, and marriage. The Canal Zone, he concludes, reproduced classic colonial hierarchies of race, national identity, and gender, establishing a model for other U.S. bases and imperial outposts around the globe.
