The Reappeared
Between 1976 and 1983, during a period of brutal military dictatorship, armed forces in Argentina abducted 30,000 citizens. These victims were tortured and killed, never to be seen again. Although the history of los desaparecidos, “the disappeared,” has become widely known, the stories of the Argentines who miraculously survived their imprisonment and torture are not well understood. The Reappeared is the first in-depth study of an officially sanctioned group of Argentine former political prisoners, the Association of Former Political Prisoners of Córdoba, which organized in 2007. Using ethnographic methods, anthropologist Rebekah Park explains the experiences of these survivors of stat...

Notes from the Road, Vol 1
Life is a journey. The path can be rather difficult to find and follow. These "Notes From the Road" have been dropped along the way to mark the trail. You are invited to come alongside for a mile or two. Venture down into the valleys, brave the dark forests, break out of the trees, and stand on the mountain top to feel the wind in your face. And, when the time comes, bid a fond farewell and venture down your own path. This book contains a small collection of journal entries from fellow travelers who struggle with their brokenness, encounter God and find out that He is still speaking. Authors: Rebekah Garvin, Chris Garvin, Tiffany Reynolds, David James, Cherise James

Conviction
If you enjoyed UNORTHODOX, you will be riveted by Rebekah Roberts . . . 'A thrilling, utterly absorbing crime novel.' MEGAN ABBOTT Journalist Rebekah Roberts works at New York City's sleaziest tabloid, but dreams of bigger things. When she receives a letter from a convicted murderer claiming his innocence, she sees both a story she can't ignore and, possibly, a chance. Twenty-two years earlier, just after the Crown Heights riots exploded between the black and Jewish neighbourhoods in Brooklyn, DeShawn Perkins was convicted of the brutal murder of his adoptive family. Rebekah's search for the truth is obscured by the decades that have elapsed: almost no one wants to talk about that grim, violent time in New York City?not even Saul Katz, a former NYPD cop and once her inside source. A searing exploration of the tensions between New York's closed communities, Conviction is a novel about the power - and cost - of loyalty and denial.

The Bastille Effect
A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. As conceptualized throughout this richly illustrated book, the Bastille Effect represents the unique ways that former prisons and detention centers are transformed, both physically and culturally. In their afterlives, these sites deliver critiques of political imprisonment and the sustained efforts to hold perpetrators accountable for state violence. However, for that narrative to surface, the sites are cleansed of their profane past, and in some cases clergy are even enlisted to perform purifying rituals that grant the sites a new place identity as memorials. For example, at Villa Grimaldi, a former det...
