Alabama Getaway
In Alabama Getaway Allen Tullos explores the recent history of one of the nation's most conservative states to reveal its political imaginary—the public shape of power, popular imagery, and individual opportunity.

Actually, It's Not Easy
Fake news. Alternative facts. Ideological agendas. How do you tell the difference between true and false? How do you know what it all means?

Only by accepting Ð perhaps even enjoying Ð the complexity of these topics, can we hope to achieve sturdy solutions to the problems faced by our society.

While these remarkable players dazzled fans and grabbed headlines, black players who were every bit as good went unnoticed outside the Negro leagues. Because a "gentleman's agreement" among the white owners of organized baseball banned blacks from the major and minor leagues from the 1880s through 1946, the Negro National League provided black players the sole opportunity to display their talent. In Turkey Stearnes and the Detroit Stars, Richard Bak documents the extraordinary history of Detroit's first and foremost black professional baseball team. This groundbrea...
