Since 1991 Somalia has been defined as a failing state, one that lacks an effective central government. The vacuum of power in Somalia, in turn, enabled Al Qaida and other radical Islamic organizations to find allies and refuge in there. Shay's account shows how the presence of radical Islamic entities in the area, alongside local problems and conflicts, has turned Somalia into a focal point in the global war against terror. On June 5, 2006, the Islamic Courts Union (ICU) declared victory in its struggle against the Alliance for the Restoration of Peace and Counter Terrorism (ARPCT), a coalition of U.S. backed warlords. Shortly after their victory announcement, the ICU implemented a Taliban-...

Social media enables instant access to individual self-expression and the sharing of information. Social media issues are boundless, permeating distinct legal disciplines. The law has struggled to adapt and for good reason: how does the law regulate this medium over the public/private law divide? This book engages with the legal implications of social media from public and private law perspectives and outlines how the law, in various legal sub-disciplines and with varying success, has endeavoured to adapt existing tools to social media.
Multicultural counseling is a dynamic field, one that continually changes to reflect shifting social norms and to serve an increasingly diverse and globalized population. There is a growing need for counselors and psychotherapists who are sensitive and inclusive not only in regard to race, culture, and ethnicity, but also in matters related to gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, and class. Inspired by the pioneering work of Clemmont E. Vontress, the contributors to Counseling across and beyond Cultures trace the evolution of multicultural counseling and discuss remaining challenges for pratitioners. Essays include personal reflections by Vontress himself, assessments of developments in multicultural counseling, evaluations of Vontress's influence in Canada and the United Kingdom, and African and Caribbean perspectives on his work. Throughout, the volume offers historical, philosophical, and critical analysis of Vontress's accomplishments in the light of the changing epistemologies of multicultural counseling and psychotherapy.
A rare look at the brute-force mechanics of deportation in the United States. In December 2017, U.S. immigration authorities shackled and abused 92 African refugees for two days while attempting to deport them by plane to Somalia. When national media broke the story, government officials lied about what happened. Shackled tells the story of this harrowing failed deportation, the resulting class action litigation, and two men's search for safety in the United States over the course of three long years. Through Abdulahi's and Sa'id's firsthand accounts, immigration lawyer Rebecca A. Sharpless brings to life the harsh consequences of the U.S. deportation system and how racism and anti-Blackness...
