Download or read book Defund Fear written by Zach Norris and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking new vision for public safety that overturns more than 200 years of fear-based discrimination, othering, and punishment As the effects of aggressive policing and mass incarceration harm historically marginalized communities and tear families apart, how do we define safety? In a time when the most powerful institutions in the United States are embracing the repressive and racist systems that keep many communities struggling and in fear, we need to reimagine what safety means. Community leader and lawyer Zach Norris lays out a radical way to shift the conversation about public safety away from fear and punishment and toward growth and support systems for our families and communities. In order to truly be safe, we are going to have to dismantle our mentality of Us vs. Them. By bridging the divides and building relationships with one another, we can dedicate ourselves to strategic, smart investments—meaning resources directed toward our stability and well-being, like healthcare and housing, education and living-wage jobs. This is where real safety begins. Originally published in hardcover as We Keep Us Safe: Building Secure, Just, and Inclusive Communities, Defund Fear is a blueprint of how to hold people accountable while still holding them in community. The result reinstates full humanity and agency for everyone who has been dehumanized and traumatized, so they can participate fully in life, in society, and in the fabric of our democracy.

Download or read book In the Dream House written by Carmen Maria Machado and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolutionary memoir about domestic abuse by the award-winning author of Her Body and Other Parties In the Dream House is Carmen Maria Machado’s engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad, and a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing relationship with a charismatic but volatile woman, Machado struggles to make sense of how what happened to her shaped the person she was becoming. And it’s that struggle that gives the book its original structure: each chapter is driven by its own narrative trope—the haunted house, erotica, the bildungsroman—through which Machado holds the events up to the light and examines them from different angles. She looks back at her religious adolescence, unpacks the stereotype of lesbian relationships as safe and utopian, and widens the view with essayistic explorations of the history and reality of abuse in queer relationships. Machado’s dire narrative is leavened with her characteristic wit, playfulness, and openness to inquiry. She casts a critical eye over legal proceedings, fairy tales, Star Trek, and Disney villains, as well as iconic works of film and fiction. The result is a wrenching, riveting book that explodes our ideas about what a memoir can do and be.

Book excerpt: Alpha Omega - MM Shifter Vampire Romance. Gay Paranormal Romance. Second Book in the Clan Series. Leon “They are going to sell me.” “No, I won’t let them.” I held Adrien’s cold hand to reassure him. “You can’t do anything, Leon,” Adrien’s eyes glistened with tears. He gazed at me with so much longing. I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him against my chest. “I can and I will. I’ll hurt them,” I promised. “I’ll keep you safe.” Leon does not have time for love or relationship. He is the heir to the Markson Pack, the next alpha in line. Some already question if he deserves to be the pack’s alpha since he is not a Markson by blood. It does not help that his younger brother Kian bonded with one of the most ruthless vampires. He doesn’t trust Kian’s vampire mate, Yuri, but he has no choice but to welcome him into the pack with open arms for Kian’s sake. With all these added responsibilities, just when Leon decides to let loose for the night and play the death match with the most arrogant, relentless cat alive, he falls into a deeper hole than he could imagine. And in this darkest pit, the only mission he has left is to keep that cat safe as if his life depended on it. ....… Kian needs his pack. He is a wolf, after all. Yuri is a vampire. Living in a pack with a bunch of wolves is too much for Yuri’s ego. Kian loves Yuri and might agree to live with him away from his pack, but it would break him. And Yuri would rather tame his ego than break Kian’s heart. Keep Me Safe is the second book in the Clan series and must be read with the first book called Break Me Never. Similar to the first book in the series, it is written in first-person narrative and contains the POVs of multiple characters. Intended for Mature Readers only.

Download or read book Control Abuse Bullying and Family Violence in Tourism Industries written by Elisa Zentveld and published by Channel View Publications. This book was released on 2023-03-17 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the roles that control, abuse, bullying and family violence can play within the tourism system. While it is generally understood that such behaviours are significant issues in society, the correlation between these types of behaviour and tourism has not been assessed in scholarly circles. The volume sets out to explain each of these behaviours within tourism industries using autoethnography as its method. This book reveals the heightened risk of family violence during family events, sporting events and in the tourism system, and explains that risks continue and can even increase after separating from a perpetrator of family violence. This is an important and under-researched area in the tourism and events literature and will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in these fields, as well as family violence, social work, health and law.
