Vagabond in a Footstool Garden
This collection of poetry by Central California poet and artist, Gustavo Rodriguez Jr is a countdown of reflections on 54 puddles of rain water left in a soul. Twenty-nine recounted storms of personal struggles with individuality, addictions, moral dilemmas and outward battle cries of social awareness and after the storms, a calm of words brings on twenty-five cleansing showers over the soul leaving soothing puddles that give back a softer reflection without covering spiritual scars or covering the open wounds of a thinking heart. In Vagabond in a Footstool Garden, Gustavo takes a walk in the park without an umbrella and refuses to run home when the first drop falls. Instead the poet walks into a climate of his own words in search of dry land and the pot at the end of a rainbow that holds things better than gold.
The Evolution of a Word Made Flesh
'The Evolution of A Word Made Flesh' a collection of poems by Central California Poet and Artist Gustavo Rodriguez is scar tissue in the form of the written word that is freshly open, secreting a smorgasbord of life's pleasures, injustices, sacraments, temptations, and plain & simple love. Questioning traditions, sexual fixations through fantasy and weighing the value of friendship from a pinto bean bin, every poem reads with its own style and rhythm coming to you wrapped in vivid images and topped off with tender filet chingon!! This collection should be served moist and medium rare. A constant, fluid like, thunderbolt of energy that is undone. Gustavo Rodriguez tries to extend a bold yet soft caress on the readers soul, attempting to seduce the reader.

A Revolution for Our Rights
A Revolution for Our Rights is a critical reassessment of the causes and significance of the Bolivian Revolution of 1952. Historians have tended to view the revolution as the result of class-based movements that accompanied the rise of peasant leagues, mineworker unions, and reformist political projects in the 1930s. Laura Gotkowitz argues that the revolution had deeper roots in the indigenous struggles for land and justice that swept through Bolivia during the first half of the twentieth century. Challenging conventional wisdom, she demonstrates that rural indigenous activists fundamentally reshaped the military populist projects of the 1930s and 1940s. In so doing, she chronicles a hidden ...
Underground
How Iranians forged a vibrant, informal video distribution infrastructure when their government banned all home video technology in 1983. In 1983, the Iranian government banned the personal use of home video technology. In Underground, Blake Atwood recounts how in response to the ban, technology enthusiasts, cinephiles, entrepreneurs, and everyday citizens forged an illegal but complex underground system for video distribution.
