Download or read book Fresh Fruit Broken Bodies written by Seth M. Holmes and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fresh Fruit, Broken Bodies provides an intimate examination of the everyday lives, suffering, and resistance of Mexican migrants in our contemporary food system. Seth Holmes, an anthropologist and MD in the mold of Paul Farmer and Didier Fassin, shows how market forces, anti-immigrant sentiment, and racism undermine health and health care. Holmes was invited to trek with his companions clandestinely through the desert into Arizona and was jailed with them before they were deported. He lived with Indigenous families in the mountains of Oaxaca and in farm labor camps in the United States, planted and harvested corn, picked strawberries, and accompanied sick workers to clinics and hospitals. This “embodied anthropology” deepens our theoretical understanding of the ways in which social inequities come to be perceived as normal and natural in society and in health care. In a substantive new epilogue, Holmes and Indigenous Oaxacan scholar Jorge Ramirez-Lopez provide a current examination of the challenges facing farmworkers and the lives and resistance of the protagonists featured in the book.
Download or read book Saigon to Singers Glen written by Jim Bowman and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2017-01-30 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a global yet intimate scale, this thoughtful memoir invites you to explore a life well lived. Get to know Jim Bowman: he grew up in a conservative Mennonite farm family in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, came of age in the war-torn streets of Saigon, and has since lived a life of adventures across the globe, from the farming communities of Indonesia to the cosmopolitan city of Nairobi, Kenya and back to Virginia. In constellations of stories and philosophical musings, Bowman traces the transformation of his worldview. In his childhood, being faithful was mostly about following the rules of the church. His time in Vietnam as a conscientious objector and in Indonesia as an agricultural development worker expanded his perceptions of culture and ethics. Back in Virginia, the death of his son dealt a mighty challenge to the faith on which he had long relied. The raw grief and violent upheaval of his foundational beliefs led to a series of questions and new answers as he learned how to find peace again. Throughout the journey, Bowman's tone is humble, honest, and always open to the experiences of others. Reflect on your own understanding of life in this changing, increasingly connected twenty-first century by reading about one exemplary life....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Strawberry Promise is a delightful story about little Isabellas family tradition of picking strawberries each June and making strawberry jam. At four years old, Isabella could not wait for her mother, grandmother, and two aunts to meet at the Pickn Patch, pick quarts of strawberries, and bring them home to make strawberry jam together. Hearing about the threat of rain, Isabella worries that the strawberry picking and jamming will be cancelled. Children and adults will enjoy reading about the making of jam using freshly picked strawberries, putting the jam into sterilized jars to preserve for the winter, and the tradition Isabella inherited from her mother, grandmother, aunts, great grandmother, and great-great-grandmother started over a century ago on the Twomey family farm in Calverton, Long Island, New York.
Download or read book Berries written by Victoria Dickenson and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2020-05-11 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is it about the small fruits of field and wood that encourage rapture? These gifts of the earth—flagrant in hedgerows, carpeting the forest floor or coloring tablelands—are so ubiquitous as to be commonplace and yet so extraordinary that we have woven them into our folklore, our fables, and our art. Strawberries were painted in the frescoes of Pompeii, brambles twined into the borders of medieval miniatures, and mulberries have been embroidered on silks and linens. Today, the huge demand for these nutrient-rich fruits is pushing berry cultivation into new territories, from South America to Scandinavia, and changing the nature of our relationship with these much-loved fruits. In this delightful, surprising, and occasionally juicy botanical exploration, Victoria Dickenson traces the humble berry’s journey across cultures and through centuries with humor and passion.
