Body Love: A Fat Activism Colouring Book is a book that combines art therapy, the current trend for adult colouring books, and the growing Body Positivity movement. Body Positivity and Fat Activism are based on the notion that respect for other people should not be given out based on perceived notions of health, outdated standards of beauty, or any other aesthetic considerations of someone's body. Everyone deserves respect. This colouring book features icons and activists from the Body Positivity movement and shows the talent, beauty, and overall fabulousness of fat bodies and the souls. A portion of the profits from this book go to each of the personalities represented, or will be donated on their behalf to the Canadian Mental Health Organization.

The Southern Democrat was established by Forney G. Stephens at Blountsville in 1894. After fellow newspaperman Lawrence H. Mathews of the Blount County News-Dispatch died in 1896, Stephens moved the Democrat to Oneonta. When the News-Dispatch folded in 1903, the Democrat was the preeminent Blount County newspaper. Stephens died in 1939, but the Democrat continued to publish in Oneonta for almost 100 years. In 1989 the old Southern Democrat was renamed the Blount Countian. Microfilm for the old Southern Democrat was acquired from the State Archives in Montgomery and studied page by page. Every mention of births, marriages, deaths, obituaries and news important to the history and development of Blount County was reproduced here. This book is vital for any serious student of Blount County, Alabama genealogy and history.
