Closer to Freedom

Recent scholarship on slavery has explored the lives of enslaved people beyond the watchful eye of their masters. Building on this work and the study of space, social relations, gender, and power in the Old South, Stephanie Camp examines the everyday containment and movement of enslaved men and, especially, enslaved women. In her investigation of the movement of bodies, objects, and information, Camp extends our recognition of slave resistance into new arenas and reveals an important and hidden culture of opposition. Camp discusses the multiple dimensions to acts of resistance that might otherwise appear to be little more than fits of temper. She brings new depth to our understanding of the ...

Relanguaging Language from a South African Township School

Using data from a long-term ethnographic study of English language classrooms in a South African township, this book highlights linguistic expertise in a setting where it is not usually expected or sought. Rather than being ‘peripheral and unskilled’, South African township teachers and learners emerge as skilled (re)languagers central to the workings of South African education, and to our understanding of how language classrooms work. This book foregrounds the heterogeneity, flexibility and creativity of day-to-day language practices that African urban spaces are known for, and conceptualises language teaching not as a progression from one fixed language to another, but as a circular sorting process between linguistic heterogeneity (languaging) and homogeneity (a standard language).

The Future is Uninscribed. What has been forgotten? What are we here to remember? The Uninscribed: Initiation into the Heart of Time takes readers on a riveting inner journey behind the veil of social fictions and unexamined indoctrinations, straight into the heart of a new time. It is here that buried treasures of lost memory are retrieved. With refreshing honesty and clarity, Stephanie South offers a glimpse into her initiatic journey as successor to Valum Votan in the GM108X mind lineage. Disguised as a "spiritual memoir," this book is a template for perceiving your own life from the other side of history. The Uninscribed is a New Beam genesis story. The past must first be understood, healed, and integrated for the future to come into full view. We can never find the Truth without seeking.
