Book Someone Must Die

Download or read book Someone Must Die written by Alan Foster and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-06-18 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the incredible true story of how two small bands of hostile nomads, now known as the Yuquí (you-KEY), were befriended by a group of courageous missionaries who placed their trust fully in God. Day after day, the missionaries put their lives at risk in the western Bolivian Amazon in order to make friends with the jungle dwellers, thus sparing the tribe from annihilation by those who were invading their territory. The task was not easy as one missionary was speared and six others shot with seven-foot-long arrows during the years it took to convince the aggressive Yuquí to settle down. During those years, numerous pioneer settlers lost their lives to Indian arrows, and many Yuquí were gunned down by the settlers and loggers. Without the timely intervention of the missionaries, the tribe would soon have ceased to exist. Three small bands of the jungle dwellers, numbering about ninety people, were preserved but at the cost of great physical and mental hardships to the missionary team. Through it all, the missionaries understood that it was a unique privilege to have a part in what God was doing as He used them to show His love to the Yuquí people.

  • ISBN : 9780999608821

Download or read book Padre Miguel written by Michael Gillgannon and published by . This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this wonderful book, Father Michael J. Gillgannon ("Padre Miguel") has shared wonderful stories about his work alongside the people of Bolivia and about his encounters with teachers, artists, theologians, and others. He has also recounted his experience both with the anti-democratic military dictatorship of General Banzer and with the democratic presidency of Evo Morales. (President Morales was elected as the first Native-American president ever of Bolivia, a country whose overwhelming majority is Native American and who in turn suffered for approximately 500 years under European and European-American domination.) In particular, Father Gillgannon's Parish of San Antonio de Padua in the Andes mountains comes alive with his description of colorful annual indigenous fiestas of life, community, and faith. The parish school grows, and its youth encourage him and his close colleague Maryknoll Sister Joan Mury to initiate an extraordinary campus ministry at the State university of La Paz. At age 79, Father Gillgannon returned to Kansas City. There, through engagement with Hispanic Ministry in the United States, he continued to raise ethical questions and to work for social change.

Book Workers from the North

Download or read book Workers from the North written by Scott Whiteford and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-11-11 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International migration between countries in Latin America became increasingly important during the twentieth century, but for a long time it was the subject of only limited research. Scott Whiteford sets the Argentina-Bolivia experience in historical perspective by examining the macrolevel factors that influenced social change in both countries and brought streams of migration into Argentina. Seasonal labor, the expansion of capitalist agriculture, international migration, and urbanization are central topics in this in-depth study of Bolivian migrants in Northwest Argentina. Whiteford’s vivid portrayal of the lives and working conditions of the migrants is based on two years of research during which he lived with the workers on a sugar plantation and, after the harvest, accompanied them to other farms and to the city of Salta in their search for more work. He traces the development of plantation agriculture in Northwest Argentina and the processes by which the plantation gained access to cheap labor and maintained control over it. As Bolivians migrated to Argentina in ever greater numbers, many recruited for the harvest remained. Whiteford’s analysis of the diverse strategies employed by workers and their families to support themselves during the post-harvest season is a major contribution to migration literature. The four distinct but related patterns of migration that he describes created a labor reserve that transcends rural/urban designations, one that is utilized by employers in both the countryside and the city.

  • Author : C. Wess Daniels
  • Publisher : Taylor & Francis
  • Release : 2022-11-04
  • ISBN : 0429632355
  • Pages : 631 pages

Download or read book The Quaker World written by C. Wess Daniels and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-11-04 with total page 631 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Quaker World is an outstanding, comprehensive and lively introduction to this complex Christian denomination. Exploring the global reach of the Quaker community, the book begins with a discussion of the living community, as it is now, in all its diversity and complexity. The book covers well-known areas of Quaker development, such as the formation of Liberal Quakerism in North America, alongside topics which have received much less scholarly attention in the past, such as the history of Quakers in Bolivia and the spread of Quakerism in Western Kenya. It includes over sixty chapters by a distinguished international and interdisciplinary team of contributors and is organised into three clear parts: Global Quakerism Spirituality Embodiment Within these sections, key themes are examined, including global Quaker activity, significant Quaker movements, biographies of key religious figures, important organisations, pacifism, politics, the abolition of slavery, education, industry, human rights, racism, refugees, gender, disability, sexuality and environmentalism. The Quaker World provides an authoritative and accessible source of information on all topics important to Quaker Studies. As such, it is essential reading for students studying world religions, Christianity and comparative religion, and it will also be of interest to those in related fields such as sociology, political science, anthropology and ethics.

Download or read book Cousins and Strangers written by Jose C. Moya and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1998-03-31 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Moya commands not only the statistical sources but the literary and folklorical ones as well, weaving them in a history that is both analytical and narrative...A superb book that will be a standard monument, not only for Spanish migration and Argentine history, but for migration history in general." Walter Nugent, University of Notre Dame "A major achievement, it represents a vast, comprehensive research effort on two continents, using a world-wide background literature and a stunning array of research techniques, all well integrated, on a topic of large scope and significance. The entire enterprise is watched over by an acute, curious, lively mind in notable equilibrium and equanimity, bringing the research to life, fereting out the implications of widely scattered and apparently disparate facts, and reaching many new, significant, and well founded conclusions." James Lockhart, University of California, Los Angeles "By far the most original on its subject, this book will become a landmark study in Latin American history." David Rock, University of California, Santa Barbara "The scope and depth of Moya's research are impressive...His imaginative use of sources and evidence and lively, frequently entertaining prose make this a stimulating, satisfying, and ascinating study...This is scholarship that is meticulous, well-reasoned, and highly original." Ida Altman, University of New Orleans "One of the truly first-rate studies in the vast migration literature--an authentic tour-de-force." William Douglass, University of Nevada, Reno
