Book excerpt: "Mariano Medina, former mountain man and friend to the likes of Kit Carson, has changed with the times and made a place for himself as a successful businessman with a trading post on the Big Thompson River. With his Indian wife, Takansy, and his children, he strives for the same recognition and respect from his neighbors that he'd earned among the mountain men. But the influx of new settlers instead brings bigotry and resentment. As his business interests expand, Medina pins his hopes on his daughter Lena, an accomplished horsewoman whom he's determined to turn into a 'lady' as part of his desire for acceptance and admiration along the Big Thompson. His wife has other ideas. She wants Lena to pursue her skills with horses, her 'spirit path'."--Page 4 of cover.

Download or read book Sex Love Race written by Martha Hodes and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Since the colonial era, North America has been defined and continually redefined by the intersections of sex, violence, and love across racial boundaries. Motivated by conquest, economics, desire, and romance, such crossings have profoundly affected American society by disturbing dominant ideas about race and sexuality. Sex, Love, Race provides a historical foundation for contemporary discussions of sex across racial lines, which, despite the numbers of interracial marriages and multi-racial children, remains a controversial issue today. The first historical anthology to focus solely and widely on the subject, Sex, Love, Race gathers new essays by both younger and well-known scholars which probe why and how sex across racial boundaries has so threatened Americans of all colors and classes. Traversing the whole of American history, from liaisons among Indians, Europeans, and Africans to twentieth-century social scientists' fascination with sex between Asian Americans and whits, the essays cover a range of regions, and of racial, ethnic, and sexual identities, in North America"--Back cover

Download or read book Trafficking in Antiblackness written by Lyndsey P. Beutin and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2023-02-27 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Trafficking in Antiblackness Lyndsey P. Beutin analyzes how campaigns to end human trafficking—often described as “modern-day slavery”—invoke the memory of transatlantic slavery to support positions ultimately grounded in antiblackness. Drawing on contemporary antitrafficking visual culture and media discourse, she shows how a constellation of media, philanthropic, NGO, and government actors invested in ending human trafficking repurpose the history of transatlantic slavery and abolition in ways that undermine contemporary struggles for racial justice and slavery reparations. The recurring narratives, images, and figures such as “slavery in Africa,” “Arab slave traders,” and “Black incapacity for self-governance” discursively turn Black people across the diaspora into the enslavers of the past and present in place of white Americans and Europeans. Doing so, Beutin contends, creates a rhetorical defense against being held liable for slavery’s dispossessions and violence. Despite these implications, Beutin demonstrates that antitrafficking discourse remains popular and politically useful for former slaving nations and their racial beneficiaries because it refashions historic justifications for white supremacy into today’s abolition of slavery.

Book excerpt: The year is 2140, and Expedition 1 has safely left Earth for its projected forty-year-long mission to the planet Harmonia, in hopes of settling a colony there. Humans have depleted almost all of Earth’s resources and now are on the verge of self-destruction. Although attempts have been made to restore the Earth’s ecological balance, the fate of the entire human race rests in the hands of this mission. Carrying 1000 humans in a quasi-frozen state and piloted by Captain Pierre De Grandpré and his crew, Expedition 1 is the largest and most technologically advanced spaceship of its kind. But just because it is the most capable of completing its task doesn’t mean there aren’t others who secretly want to get to Harmonia first and claim the best spot for themselves—others willing to do whatever it takes to stop Expedition 1. Soon, Expedition 1’s crew find themselves trying to defend against a vicious, devious enemy attempting to destroy them. Wondering how the enemy keeps disrupting their mission so easily, crew members begin to lose trust in one another. Is there a spy among them? If so, who? As Captain De Grandpré does everything he can to bring together the highly skilled individuals forming his crew, his vision grows ever clearer: arrive at Harmonia first before it falls into the wrong hands . . . Full of spellbinding, edge-of-your-seat moments, From Terra to Harmonia: Out of the Sun is the first book in the From Terra to Harmonia trilogy.

Book excerpt: Children who choose to leave home as a result of hunger, poverty, conflict, or simply to seek adventure, often travel alone. Crossing the border into strange countries, which for them hold great promise, the find their hopes battered when bandits steal their possessions or abuse them. They are often arrested by authorities, have their few possessions confiscated, and find themselves vulnerable to sexual and verbal abuse. Published with Save the Children, the book is based on interviews with children, some as young as twelve years old: Why did they leave home? How did they cross borders with no documentation? What hazards did they face en route, and at their destinations? Although their chronicles of theft, violence, sexual abuse and workplace exploitation can seem relentless, and often end in arrest and deportation, they are at the same time life-affirming and filled with hope.
