In Border Citizens, historian Eric V. Meeks explores how the racial classification and identities of the diverse indigenous, mestizo, and Euro-American residents of Arizona’s borderlands evolved as the region was politically and economically incorporated into the United States. First published in 2007, the book examines the complex relationship between racial subordination and resistance over the course of a century. On the one hand, Meeks links the construction of multiple racial categories to the process of nation-state building and capitalist integration. On the other, he explores how the region’s diverse communities altered the blueprint drawn up by government officials and members of the Anglo majority for their assimilation or exclusion while redefining citizenship and national belonging.
The revised edition of this highly praised and influential study features dozens of new images, an introductory essay by historian Patricia Nelson Limerick, and a chapter-length afterword by the author. In his afterword, Meeks details and contextualizes Arizona’s aggressive response to undocumented immigration and ethnic studies in the decade after Border Citizens was first published, demonstrating that the broad-based movement against these measures had ramifications well beyond Arizona. He also revisits the Yaqui and Tohono O’odham nations on both sides of the Sonora-Arizona border, focusing on their efforts to retain, extend, and enrich their connections to one another in the face of increasingly stringent border enforcement.

Описание:
The national and international ministry of John Lawrence had one common theme: adding souls to the Kingdom of God. He was a great soul winner, evangelist, pastor, and marriage counselor. He cried loud against sin, in and outside the church, and no one was spared. The Lord poured upon him a powerful anointing and insight to the important keys for revivals, prison ministry, street evangelism, and God-approved marriages. Due to his obedience and unmovable pursuit to fulfill God's will, many church and individual ministries have blossomed, souls saved, marriages restored, and lives unshackled and delivered from the clutches of the evil one. It didn't matter if he was preaching to a storefront church with only ten in attendance or a church cathedral with a thousand attendees; he preached with a tenacity unlike any other evangelist I have ever seen. When it came to street ministry, John led the charge by being there, providing instruction for those who were serving along with him, going door-to-door from one location to the next. He held annual marriage seminars in various cities across the nation. As a result, many marriages were restored, strengthened, and healed. John Lawrence was on a quest for souls. He was a mighty conqueror indeed, crying loud and sparing not.

Gerwalta Faust may be the youngest daughter of the Red Matron, but she is still a capable warrior, a righteous wolf-watcher. She knows better than to trust a lupine, especially one as handsome as Andreas Baron. Andreas despises the wolf-watchers, but what self-respecting werewolf wouldn't? They lord over his kind, ruling with ruthless silver fists. The last thing he wants is to spend time with one, let alone come to see her as something more than the blood red cloak she wears. But as Andreas and Gerwalta set out to retrieve a runaway wolf, they discover not the beasts they expected, but the beauty within. Each fights against the tendering of their heart, knowing that there is one immutable law neither can outrun: it is a crime for a wolfsretter and a lupine to love. A crime punishable by death. Beauty and the Betrayer is the story of Die Verr terin, the infamous betrayer referenced in the contemporary paranormal urban fantasy fairytale, the Red Hood Chronicles.

Описание:
I refuse this life. I refuse this legacy. I will not become a wolf-killer.
Humans think Little Red Riding Hood is nothing more than a fairytale, but we hoods know better. We despise the woman who committed the darkest sin one of our kind can: falling in love with a werewolf and becoming his mate. The fairy tale didn't end the way you've been told. Unless you've heard the version in which Little Red was roasted on a silver spit over a fire, that is.
And I almost walked down that same path. But in losing the werewolf I loved, I also realized the kind of person I want to be. That's why I've turned my back on my heritage, denied my birthright. I will not hate werewolves just because they're werewolves. I will not train to contain them, dominate them, and if I so choose, kill them. In fact, I refuse to be a hood at all.
I've walked away from my old life.
And that was going great, until an English werewolf on the run walked into my new one...
