Did you know that in Maricopa County, Arizona, you can be arrested for a felony 3 (intent to kill your six-and-a-half-year-old child) in the middle of the day if you do not walk them up to the neighbor’s house? A Sheriff, like Officer Rogers, has the right to enter your house, search it without a warrant, not read Miranda rights and lie, knowing your child is actually safe at the neighbor’s house where you left her. Public defender Jamie Noland brainwashed an innocent, naive single mom into taking a false plea. For what? Power, money, control, or a step toward prosecutor? Judge McVey, with the reputation of a Nazi Judge, and Prosecutor Terry Clarke made a mistake in plea agreement. They ...
"With her precise ear for just the right descriptive word, Alison Hicks's poems enlarge daily life. Whether running into the father of a childhood friend who committed suicide, or meditating on Chekhov, or reciting the mantra of drugs used to treat migraines, Hicks transforms daily experience into something larger and more transcendent. Her poems glow." - Kim Roberts, author of Animal Magnetism, The Kimnama, and The Wishbone Galaxy
Knowing Is a Branching Trail is a poetic investigation of the many ways in which we know and come to understanding. In this collection of poetry, selected winner of the 2021 Birdy Poetry Prize, by Meadowlark Press, the poems engage with the work of thinkers and artists, from Charles Darwin and Samuel Beckett to Margaret Atwood and the anonymous paints of the Lascaux caves. Themes range from pandemic and illness, childhood and parenting, observing and engaging with the natural world, and creating art. Poems in the book have previously appeared in Poet Lore, Blood Orange Review, Green Hills Literary Lantern, and Vox Poetica, and other journals. In this book, we witness an artist's pause, an extraction of poetry from the ordinary beat of life.

The book is structured thematically, with a focus on three key strands where the impact of digital technologies is significant: - Rethinking marketing and comm...

To "re-mother" is to nurture, a mothering not outgrown by crossing the line from childhood into adulthood. Like falling in love with the same person again and again, mothering once is not enough. Renewal is necessary. Re-Mothering: Poems by Susan Chast presents 70 poems about getting and giving nurture from family, friends, companions in faith and love, God, Earth, elements of nature, stories and imagination.
Milieus of ReMemory concentrates on how people in Lebanon situate and work on memories of violence and trauma, as well as exchanges of voice. Developing a critical phenomenology of social material practices, a relational notion of community and subjectivity outlines thematic discussions of intergenerational memory, gender, temporality, and transactions between personal and public memory. While emphasizing conduits and channels by which material and imaginary resources circulate as differential circuits of power and authority, the book focuses on how memory activism and memory projects constitute emergent milieus of social exchange and ethical responsibility to self and circumstance, to both publics and political cultures.
This edited collection explores critical literacy theory and provides practical guidance to how it can be taught and applied in libraries. Critical literacy asks fundamental questions about our understanding of knowledge. Unlike more conventional approaches to literacy and resource evaluation, with critical literacy there is no single ‘correct’ way to read and respond to a text or resource. A commitment to equity and social justice sets critical literacy apart from many other types of literacy and links it to wider societal debates, such as internationalization, community cohesion and responses to disability. The book provides a foundation of critical literacy theory, as applied to libra...
