Book excerpt: The apocalyptic clashes of culture between the land-hungry whites and the American Indians, which reached their climax in the latter half of the nineteenth century, were among the most tragic of all wars ever fought. These conflicts pitted one civilization against another, neither able to comprehend or accommodate the other. To the victor went domination of the continent, to the vanquished the destruction of their way of life. This volume describes those who took part in these wars, focusing on the Plains Indians such as the Sioux and the Cheyenne, the Apache peoples of the south-west, and their implacable foe, the US Cavalry.

Download or read book Live Free Or Die written by Sean Hannity and published by Threshold Editions. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times Bestseller America’s top-rated cable news host offers his first book in ten years: a look at America’s fight against those who would reverse our tradition of freedom—a fight we can’t afford to lose in 2020. America is great for a reason. Built on principles of freedom, rugged individualism, and self-sufficiency, no country has ever accumulated more power and wealth, abused it less, or used that power more to advance the human condition. And yet, as America blossomed, leftwing radicalism and resentment festered beneath the surface, threatening to undermine democracy first in the sixties and now—more insidiously than ever—in the form of social justice warriors, the deep state, and compromised institutions like academia and the mainstream media. Our fate if we succumb to a Democratic victory in 2020? A big step toward full-blown socialism along with the economic dysfunction and social strife that are its hallmarks. With radical Democrats demanding the Green New Deal, socialized medicine, abortion on demand, open borders, abolishing the Electoral College, packing the Supreme Court, and an end to free speech, our great nation will be fundamentally transformed beyond recognition. Ronald Reagan once said, “Freedom is but one generation away from extinction,” and his words have never rung truer. In Live Free or Die, Sean demonstrates why now is an All Hands on Deck moment to save the Republic. His solution is simple: if all you can do is vote, then vote. But if you can inform people of the truth, that’s even better. And the truth is that the future of American freedom rests on Donald Trump’s reelection.

Download or read book The Land of Open Graves written by Jason De Leon and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this gripping and provocative “ethnography of death,” anthropologist and MacArthur "Genius" Fellow Jason De León sheds light on one of the most pressing political issues of our time—the human consequences of US immigration and border policy. The Land of Open Graves reveals the suffering and deaths that occur daily in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona as thousands of undocumented migrants attempt to cross the border from Mexico into the United States. Drawing on the four major fields of anthropology, De León uses an innovative combination of ethnography, archaeology, linguistics, and forensic science to produce a scathing critique of “Prevention through Deterrence,” the federal border enforcement policy that encourages migrants to cross in areas characterized by extreme environmental conditions and high risk of death. For two decades, systematic violence has failed to deter border crossers while successfully turning the rugged terrain of southern Arizona into a killing field. Featuring stark photography by Michael Wells, this book examines the weaponization of natural terrain as a border wall: first-person stories from survivors underscore this fundamental threat to human rights, and the very lives, of non-citizens as they are subjected to the most insidious and intangible form of American policing as institutional violence. In harrowing detail, De León chronicles the journeys of people who have made dozens of attempts to cross the border and uncovers the stories of the objects and bodies left behind in the desert. The Land of Open Graves will spark debate and controversy.

Download or read book To Live and Die in El Valle written by Oscar Mancinas and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 2020 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Many of the young people in this haunting collection of thirteen stories grounded in Arizona don't have the luxury of being dreamless. Some are compelled to leave their hometown: "I knew early on that I didn't want to die in El Valle. Nothing could be worse than being stuck somewhere you didn't belong." Those that manage to get out often find themselves in awkward situations. One young man, a student at a New England college, is surprised to receive a call from the admissions office, asking him to give a tour to a Mexican family. He agrees to help, but the interaction only reinforces the unease he feels about his place on campus and his Mexican identity. Not all want to leave. Kino vigorously resists his friend's constant encouragement to apply to schools out of state. "You think you won't be a wetback to people out there? You think I wanna be your lil' Indian sidekick on the East Coast? You think you're better than all of us here?" Others live with the daily fear of deportation or the loss of family members. Fernanda adjusts to a new life as an undocumented person in El Valle, where she takes comfort in the familiar ritual of baseball. Roach's mother has steadfastly refused to talk about her father, until through drastic measures she learns he was deported before her birth. And on their long drive to college, Melissa's father finally talks about the death of her would-be older brother. Vividly depicting working-class communities, Oscar Mancinas creates lives shaped by circumstances beyond their control, from migration for a better life to centuries of systemic racism and settler-colonialism. His characters frequently struggle with a sense of belonging, and their stories eloquently illuminate Hispanic and indigenous experiences in the Southwest"--

Download or read book Az If written by Sandrael and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Az If" presents a collection of "a real soul-stirring, eye-opening version of one woman's life in the middle lane" while incorporating an understanding of certain Christian principles along the way. "Az If" explores the relative complexities of human nature and interaction as they might occur in a sometimes uncertain modern society. Most of "Az If" deals with family bonds, starting with "Collection by Ma", "Real Mothers" and "My Sisters Are My Friends". This book focuses on notions of history and culture, "African Queens" portrays a slightly different kind of relationship that might influence a person's sense of self. Several pieces envision a virtual link between the earthly and the divine, through the individual. For example, "Echoes of Women's Work" and "I Love Him Still" post faith as a means whereby a person might achieve a degree of peace or comprehension. Based in part on the idea that "Childhood lessons last throughout adulthood", "Az If" seeks to characterize the "Reality Of A 13-Year Old Manchild in Da' Hood". The end of the text offers a fairly candid look into "That Mirror". The concluding pages of "Az If" furnish some "Final Thoughts" addressing facets of mortality and spirituality. From the peaks and valleys, defining romance, to the strength that may come through prayer, the collection covers a range of themes and scenarios. Altogether this book offers a design to mark phases of thinking as well as enlightening and provoking thought for the reader. "Az If" is fresh and original. Readers from all walks of life will appreciate the truth and experiences in this novel. This book relays to the reader to take note of their acquired knowledge, both as an outlet and even as a blueprint for your life, and ultimately to better understand your God given path.
