The Architect and the Magistrate
" The Architect and the Magistrate is a truly inspirational story about a magical magistrate of nature who offers advice to all who seek him out in their favorite place within nature. The Magistrate shows people - in this case a young boy named Cody McCoy many beautiful ways to communicate with and learn from nature by looking and listening to what the earth has to offer the seeker, which is typically right in front of his or her eyes and ears. Cody requested that the magistrate help him design a house in his favorite meadow and the magistrate obliged by showing Cody how his observation of many creatures, such as a butterflies flight, can inspire him to think of ways in which he can build this house. This is a story to which all people, young and old, can relate. We all come from nature and share the earth with all the amazingly beautiful creatures and living things that live on it. The magistrate simply points out the obvious that we all are able to see and hear if we just slow down and listen to what nature has to offer us (which is usually right before our eyes). "
Disability, Mothers, and Organization
This book examines how and why mothers with disabled children became activists. Leading campaigns to close institutions and secure human rights, these women learned to mother as activists, struggling in their homes and communities against the debilitating and demoralizing effects of exclusion. Activist mothers recognized the importance of becoming advocates for change beyond their own families and contributed to building an organization to place their issues on a more public scale. In highlighting this under-examined movement, this book contributes to the scholarship on Disability Studies, Women's Students, Sociology, and Social Movement Studies.
