Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book came about during a time of despairity. I had lost my job and had been out of work for over two years. I then decided to look within to try to help my family stay affloat in our new world of so many uncertainties. I wrote this book out of my pain, insecurities, struggles, and many adversities. This book was written from one victim to another to help them realize that "we" can take all that we ́ve been through and become empowered by it rather than to blame others or sulk. This book was designed to help bring the winner out of people that has once felt like a failure, it ́s also to free people that has victimized others and encourage them to come to true repentance & completely change their way of thinking as well as their way of life. This book was written by a tender flower that throughout the process of writting this book has since grown into a cement rose. I ́m much stronger then I used to be but even with all that has transpired in my life, I still dare to truly love others and genuinely care about them. Thank you for reading my books, God bless!

Download or read book Shattering Silence written by Begoña Aretxaga and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, the first feminist ethnography of the violence in Northern Ireland, is an analysis of a political conflict through the lens of gender. The case in point is the working-class Catholic resistance to British rule in Northern Ireland. During the 1970s women in Catholic/nationalist districts of Belfast organized themselves into street committees and led popular forms of resistance against the policies of the government of Northern Ireland and, after its demise, against those of the British. In the abundant literature on the conflict, however, the political tactics of nationalist women have passed virtually unnoticed. Begoña Aretxaga argues here that these hitherto invisible practices were an integral part of the social dynamic of the conflict and had important implications for the broader organization of nationalist forms of resistance and gender relationships. Combining interpretative anthropology and poststructuralist feminist theory, Aretxaga contributes not only to anthropology and feminist studies but also to research on ethnic and social conflict by showing the gendered constitution of political violence. She goes further than asserting that violence affects men and women differently by arguing that the manners in which violence is gendered are not fixed but constantly shifting, depending on the contingencies of history, social class, and ethnic identity. Thus any attempt at subverting gender inequality is necessarily colored by other dimensions of political experience.

Download or read book Into the Silence written by Wade Davis and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-10-18 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive story of the British adventurers who survived the trenches of World War I and went on to risk their lives climbing Mount Everest. On June 6, 1924, two men set out from a camp perched at 23,000 feet on an ice ledge just below the lip of Everest’s North Col. George Mallory, thirty-seven, was Britain’s finest climber. Sandy Irvine was a twenty-two-year-old Oxford scholar with little previous mountaineering experience. Neither of them returned. Drawing on more than a decade of prodigious research, bestselling author and explorer Wade Davis vividly re-creates the heroic efforts of Mallory and his fellow climbers, setting their significant achievements in sweeping historical context: from Britain’s nineteen-century imperial ambitions to the war that shaped Mallory’s generation. Theirs was a country broken, and the Everest expeditions emerged as a powerful symbol of national redemption and hope. In Davis’s rich exploration, he creates a timeless portrait of these remarkable men and their extraordinary times.
