Download or read book Kamala Harris written by Nikki Grimes and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-08-25 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the incredible story of a young daughter of immigrants who would grow up to be the first woman, first Black person, and first South Asian American ever elected Vice President of the United States—and in a history-making turn of events, likely to become the Democrats’ 2024 Presidential nominee—in this moving picture book biography of Kamala Harris. When Kamala Harris was young, she often accompanied her parents to civil rights marches—so many, in fact, that when her mother asked a frustrated Kamala what she wanted, the young girl responded with: “Freedom!” As Kamala grew from a small girl in Oakland to a senator running for president, it was this long-fostered belief in freedom and justice for all people that shaped her into the inspiring figure she is today. From fighting for the use of a soccer field in middle school to fighting for the people of her home state in Congress, Senator Harris used her voice to speak up for what she believed in and for those who were otherwise unheard. And now this dedication has led her all the way to being elected Vice President of the United States and a likely 2024 Presidential candidate. Told in Nikki Grimes's stunning verse and featuring gorgeous illustrations by Laura Freeman, this picture book biography brings to life a story that shows all young people that the American dream can belong to all of us if we fight for one another.

Download or read book Placemaker written by Christie Purifoy and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Placemaker is a call to tend our souls, our land, and our homes--to cultivate comfort, beauty, and peace in the places God has us. Images of comfortable kitchens and flower-filled gardens stir something deep within us--we instinctively long for home. In a world of chaos and conflict, we want a place of comfort and peace. In Placemaker, Christie Purifoy invites us to notice our soul's desire for beauty, our need to create and to be created again and again. As she reflects on the joys and sorrows of two decades as a placemaker and her recent years living in and restoring a Pennsylvania farmhouse, Christie shows us that we are all gardeners. No matter our vocation, we spend much of our lives tending, keeping, and caring. In each act of creation, we reflect the image of God. In each moment of making beauty, we realize that beauty is a mystery to receive. Weaving together her family's journey with stories of botanical marvels and the histories of the flawed yet inspiring placemakers who shaped the land generations ago, Christie calls us to cultivate orchards and communities, to clap our hands along with the trees of the fields, to step into our calling to create, to make a place in the place God made for us. Placemaker is a timely yet timeless reminder that the cultivation of good and beautiful places is not a retreat from the real world but a holy pursuit of a world that is more real than we know.

Download or read book History of Peace written by David Hoicka and published by Singapore Mediation Solutions. This book was released on 1920 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History of Peace demonstrates from 4500 years of history, and case studies of more than 100 treaties resolving armed conflicts, that even when peace seems impossible, peace may still be possible. Even when the going seems hopeless, and the night is dark, hope is not yet lost. History shows that again and again, peace can break out from the darkest of nights. From ancient Mesopotamia to modern-day peace processes, this groundbreaking book explores humanity's enduring quest for peace. "History of Peace" offers profound insights into how mediators - from world leaders to grassroots peacemakers - have helped resolve armed conflicts, save lives, rebuild communities, and foster economic growth through the power of dialogue and negotiation, over the thousands of years from the beginnings of recorded time. Read about: · The Treaty of Mesilim (c. 2550 BCE) – Mesilim, king of the Sumerian city-state of Kish, mediated a land and water boundary dispute between the nearby south Babylonian cities of Lagash and Umma · The Treaty of Kadesh (1259 BCE) between Egypt and the Hittites, negotiated by intermediaries, established one of the earliest known mutual defense pacts · The Peace of Westphalia (1648), facilitated by papal mediation, revolutionized international relations by introducing the concept of state sovereignty · The Congress of Vienna (1815) reshaped Europe after the Napoleonic Wars, with Talleyrand's skilled mediation creating a balance of power that lasted nearly a century · The Treaty of Versailles (1919) ended World War I but sowed seeds for future conflict, highlighting the importance of inclusive mediation processes · The Camp David Accords (1978) demonstrated the power of personal diplomacy and third-party mediation by the US in resolving seemingly intractable disputes between Egypt and Israel · The Good Friday Agreement (1998) brought an end to decades of conflict in Northern Ireland through innovative power-sharing arrangements, facilitated by multi-party mediation · The Aceh Peace Agreement (2005) in Indonesia, mediated by former Finnish President Martti Ahtisaari, ended a 30-year conflict and saved countless lives · The Comprehensive Peace Agreement (2005) in Sudan, mediated by the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), ended Africa's longest-running civil war · The Colombian Peace Agreement (2016), facilitated by Norwegian and Cuban mediation, ended over 50 years of conflict between the government and FARC rebels Through vivid storytelling and expert analysis, "History of Peace" brings to life the dramatic moments when bitter enemies found common ground. From Napoleon and Tsar Alexander's fateful meeting on a raft in the Neman River to modern-day peace negotiations, we will trace an arc of human progress in the vital art of conflict resolution. A prime example is the Treaty of Portsmouth of 1905, which ended the Russo-Japanese War. U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt's mediation between Russia and Japan not only brought an end to a costly conflict but also elevated the United States' role in international diplomacy. As Japanese diplomat Jutarō Komura noted, "President Roosevelt's impartial and energetic efforts have made possible what seemed impossible." This treaty demonstrates how skilled mediation can bridge even the widest divides between adversaries. But this book is more than just a chronicle of famous treaties. It's a deep exploration of how mediation and diplomacy have evolved over millennia to become sophisticated tools for conflict resolution. Readers will learn: · The essential ingredients for successful peace negotiations · How mediators bridge seemingly unbridgeable divides · The role of economic incentives in cementing peace · How to structure agreements for long-term stability · Common pitfalls in peace processes and how to avoid them "History of Peace" also highlights the crucial role played by grassroots peacemakers and civil society in nurturing reconciliation from the ground up. Through inspiring stories of ordinary people working for change, it shows how everyone can contribute to building a more peaceful world. With ongoing conflicts from Ukraine to Yemen threatening global stability, the lessons in this book have never been more relevant. Whether you're a student of history, a policymaker, a mediator, or simply someone who cares about creating a better future, "History of Peace" offers invaluable insights into humanity's noblest endeavor. Key features: · Comprehensive overview of peace treaties and conflict resolution from ancient times to the present · In-depth case studies of pivotal agreements that shaped world history · Analysis of evolving mediation techniques and diplomatic strategies · Exploration of the economic benefits of peace and post-conflict reconstruction · Inspiring stories of grassroots peacebuilders making a difference · Lessons for addressing contemporary conflicts and global challenges This book is priced at an affordable price point to enable widest availability. If this collection of inspiring stories how to make Swords into Plowshares, saves even one life or brings happiness to a single person, it will fill me also with hope and happiness, knowing I've made a difference as the author.
