DREAMers and the Choreography of Protest
DREAMers and the Choreography of Protest tells the story of how a network of undocumented youth radicalized the immigrant rights movement in the United States. Based on interviews with lead activists, extensive archival research, and years of ethnographic study, Michael P. Young traces the key events shaping DREAMer activism from 2006 to 2014. Chronicling a sequence of escalating protests--from sit-ins to detention center infiltrations and border crossing actions--Young argues that this audacious choreography of protest inspired and shaped a social movement of and for undocumented immigrants.
Detained and Deported
An intimate look at the people ensnared by the US detention and deportation system, the largest in the world On a bright Phoenix morning, Elena Santiago opened her door to find her house surrounded by a platoon of federal immigration agents.

Her two-year-old daughter and fifteen-year-old son, both American citizens, were taken by the state of Arizona and consigned to foster care. Their mother’s only offense: living undocumented in the United States. Immigrants like Elena, who’ve lived in the United S...
Illegalized

Civility, Legality, and Justice in America
Throughout American history, the discourse of civility has proven quite resilient, and concern for a perceived lack of civility has ebbed and flowed in recognizable patterns. Today we are in another era in which political leaders and commentators bemoan a crisis of incivility and warn of civility's demise. Civility, Legality, and Justice in America charts the uses of civility in American legal and political discourse. How important is civility as a legal and political virtue? How does it fare when it is juxtaposed with the claim that it masks injustice? Who advocates civility and to what effect? How are battles over civility played out in legal and political arenas? This book brings the work of several distinguished scholars together to critically assess the relative claims of civility and justice and the way law the weighs those virtues.
Telomeres
This book provides a comprehensive overview of aging and its mechanisms through the prism of telomere length and its link to lifestyle parameters and environmental pollutants, diseases where telomere length attrition is prominent, and therapeutic approaches to slow down or prevent the process of telomere length reduction. It also provides an extensive comparison of the methodology for telomere length determination and characterization. The book will help researchers in any discipline to obtain an in-depth and broad knowledge of the most recent advances in telomere research written by specialists in the field. It is also addressed to the readers interested in gaining an insight into the processes of aging and those factors that affect “graceful” aging, enabling them to extract even useful tips in improving their everyday habits.
Essential Oil Safety
