Download or read book Choosing Revolution written by Helen Praeger Young and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some two thousand women participated in the Long March, but their experience of this seminal event in the history of Communist China is rarely represented. In Choosing Revolution, Helen Praeger Young presents her interviews with twenty-two veterans of the Red Army's legendary 6,000-mile "retreat to victory" before the advancing Nationalist Army. Enormously rich in detail, Young's Choosing Revolution reveals the complex interplay between women's experiences and the official, almost mythic version of the Long March. In addition to their riveting stories of the march itself, Young's subjects reveal much about what it meant in China to grow up female and, in many cases, poor during the first decades of the twentieth century. In speaking about the work they did and how they adapted to the demands of being a soldier, these women--both educated individuals who were well-known leaders and illiterate peasants--reveal the Long March as only one of many segments of the revolutionary paths they chose. Against a background of diverse perspectives on the Long March, Young presents the experiences of four women in detail: one who brought her infant daughter with her on the Long March, one who gave birth during the march, one who was a child participant, and one who attended medical school during the march. Young also includes the stories of three women who did not finish the Long March. Her unique record of ordinary women in revolutionary circumstances reveals the tenacity and resilience that led these individuals far beyond the limits of most Chinese women's lives.

Download or read book The Worm Farming Revolution written by Pauly Piccirillo and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Worm Farming Revolution Book teaches you everything you need to know about raising worms in order to grow amazing plants, recycle kitchen scraps, or grow your own fishing worms. It's a Return to the Founding Principles of Successful Gardening and an almost lost art our forefathers past down to us. Just because our technology changes and our knowledge increases doesn't mean that we have to invent something that's completely opposite of what the Creator showed us. A new way of feeding millions of people doesn't have to oppose nature, but should work with nature. I show you how to harness and multiply the power of a tiny organism that corporations and many people have become disconnected with. We have gone down a dark agricultural road with too few exits to get us back in the right direction. The technology of today combined with the proven methods of the past is where science should have lead us. But where "scientists" have failed, there has been a revolt. Not in a new way, but the reviving of a forgotten way. If you've never heard of the term "Worm Farming" then it may seem like a silly, eccentric hobby created to study the natural habits of worms. Well that may be true to some degree, but the truth, meaning, and reason behind this quirky little phrase may be one of the greatest yet simplest technological awakenings to hit the agricultural industry since the invention of, what I call, the world's most "successful failures..".synthetic fertilizers. No matter what gardening method you use, the fact is, you WILL need worm castings (worm poop) in order to give plants the proper food they were created to feed on. Worm castings are as natural to plants as breast milk to a new born baby. This is one of the reasons why worms are found moving in and out of the root systems of plants. They deposit the rich, microbial fertilizer that plants depend on for optimal health. This book teaches you how to grow your plants by, FIRST, growing your soil. You'll learn everything you

Download or read book Dred Scott s Virginia written by J A Hines and published by Walk With You . This book was released on 2023-05-08 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1857, Chief Justice Roger Brooke Taney, considered by historians to be an outstanding jurist along with a competent judicial administrator, with the stroke of his pen attempted to settle once and for all the status of slavery in this country. This subject along with its expansion west was debated for many decades prior to Taney‘s ruling. In his perceived wisdom he chose to ignore the fundamental principle in which our country was founded as outlined clearly in the Declaration of Indepen dence. When Thomas Jefferson penned this declaration it heralded that ―We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.‖ This sentence has been called one of the best-known and most potent sentences ever written. On paper it appeared to exclude none of the inhabitants of the original thirteen colonies. Dred Scott‘s quest for freedom was part of a process that helped the United States fulfill these words, promised and echoed ever since the beginning of the American Revolution. You are about to read the product of a thorough research of the known records and transactions relating to Dred Scott‘s early years in Virginia as the slave of Peter Blow of Southampton County. In the early 19th Century this man was considered property, hardly worthy of mention in ii the documents of the time. Since his early life in Southampton, his stature in American Society has risen in prominence, representing a portion of America that speaks volumes as to how as a nation we have evolved in an attempt to fulfill the founding fathers‘ unrealized statements. We recognize and honor Dred and his Virginia parents by identifying their existence on Peter Blow‘s Plantation and as the slaves of the Taylor family. This is an attempt to tell the story of their early life and preserve their legacy for future generations to remember. In testament to his life, Dred Scott‘s stature has risen from these humble beginnings, representing a fulfillment of that portion of the creed of the United States that was founded upon the principles of God, Equality for all, and individual liberty. Dred Scott repeatedly lost court decisions in his quest for freedom for his family; however, he was successful in obtaining an honored place for himself in the history of our great nation while Chief Justice Taney‘s legacy drifts into obscurity.
