Описание: Offers a collection of reminiscences captures the private life of a great American writer. This is a rich, multifaceted portrait painted by those who knew Thomas Wolfe (casually or intimately), loved him (or didn`t), and saw, heard, and experienced the literary (and literal) giant.
Rights Remembered is a remarkable historical narrative and autobiography written by esteemed Lummi elder and culture bearer Pauline R. Hillaire, Scälla–Of the Killer Whale. A direct descendant of the immediate postcontact generation of Coast Salish in Washington State, Hillaire combines in her narrative life experiences, Lummi oral traditions preserved and passed on to her, and the written record of relationships between the United States and the indigenous peoples of the Northwest Coast to tell the story of settlers, government officials, treaties, reservations, and the colonial relationship between Coast Salish and the white newcomers.
Hillaire’s autobiography, although written out of frustration with the status of Native peoples in America, is not an expression of anger but rather represents, in her own words, her hope “for greater justice for Indian people in America, and for reconciliation between Indian and non-Indian Americans, based on recognition of the truths of history.”
Addressed to indigenous and non-Native peoples alike, this is a thoughtful call for understanding and mutual respect between cultures.

Описание: Queerly Remembered investigates the ways in which gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer (GLBTQ) individuals and communities have increasingly turned to public tellings of their ostensibly shared pasts in order to advocate for political, social, and cultural change in the present. Much like nations, institutions, and other minority groups before them, GLBTQ people have found communicating their past(s)—particularly as expressed through the concept of memory—a rich resource for leveraging historical and contemporary opinions toward their cause. Drawing from the interdisciplinary fields of rhetorical studies, memory studies, gay and lesbian studies, and queer theory, Thomas R. Dunn considers both the ephemeral tactics and monumental strategies that GLBTQ communities have used to effect their queer persuasion. More broadly this volume addresses the challenges and opportunities posed by embracing historical representations of GLBTQ individuals and communities as a political strategy. Particularly for a diverse community whose past is marked by the traumas of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, the forgetting and destruction of GLBTQ history, and the sometimes-divisive representational politics of fluid, intersectional identities, portraying a shared past is an exercise fraught with conflict despite its potential rewards. Nonetheless, by investigating rich rhetorical case studies through time and across diverse artifacts—including monuments, memorials, statues, media publications, gravestones, and textbooks—Queerly Remembered reveals that our current queer “turn toward memory” is a complex, enduring, and avowedly rich rhetorical undertaking.

Описание: A collection of original fine art and poetry created to inspire and educate the reader about the historic Village of Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania. A pre-Revolutionary War community to the north and west of Philadelphia, and with one of the nation's oldest Society of Friends Meetinghouse (c.1709) Plymouth Meeting served as an important hub for "The Underground Railroad", the Abolitionist action that helped slaves to escape to freedom in Canada, prior to the Civil War. The Friends Meetinghouse is a place of worship for the Plymouth Monthly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends - a religious denomination also known as the "Quakers". Three of these important buildings were owned by the Corson family since the 1700s, and are protected as historical treasures because of their ownership and relationship to the unique history of the area. The meetings held in the Abolitionist meeting hall, a part of those properties, included respected speakers, abolitionists who were committed to the end of slavery in the United States. They included included Frederick Douglass, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Lucretia Mott and William Lloyd Garrison.Despite their status as protected historical structures, a number of these buildings are now endangered by the encroachment of modern development. To protect and preserve important history of both the area and, indeed, the young United States of America, these structures cannot be moved. Their proximity to one another and to the Friends Meetinghouse are core to their function as an irreplaceable part of our history.Other important history markers in the Plymouth Meeting area are its lime kilns, built to process limestone - a substantial part of the economy in this area. Over the years, a good number of these lime kilns have been destroyed as development has crept into what is an ancient community by American historical standards. Such actions need to be stopped, and remaining sites preserved, lest an essential piece of American culture be forever lost. The authors of this book, Carol Worthington-Levy and Arthur Turfa, spent over two decades living in Plymouth Meeting, and grew up learning about its history, hearing stories told by their parents as well as by descendants of the Abolitionists, and even studying in the tiny library at the Friends Meetinghouse compound. The work we present here is not meant to be as much biographical as inspired by these brave people and places that were the saving grace for thousands of freedom-starved slaves, through over two decades prior to the Civil War. This book is more than just a collection of thoughts, art and historical notes - it's a tribute to the living and breathing history of one of the oldest settlements in our country. We are hoping by the time you have spent time with The Village of Plymouth Meeting, you'll feel the same loyalty to its heritage and understand the need to preserve and protect these monuments to the generosity and resourcefulness of the brave Americans who took a stand against the practice of slavery in the United States.
