Free to Think - Minnegaffe Edition
Imagine living in a society in which each member may have different beliefs and each member may practise a religion that is different from the others. Imagine this happening in family units with each family member having a different religion. Our heroine finds herself in such an open minded and tolerant society. However, these people keep their beliefs and traditions a secret from the establishment and from the government. The government has traditionally kidnapped members from this society to indoctrinate them into religions that the government deems to be more acceptable. Will Canada, an ever-oppressive country, continue the kidnappings and forced indoctrination or will the people be able to practise their beliefs openly? Will our heroine and the other members of her society finally recover from years of oppression and abuse to find fulfillment and happiness in their lives?
Cerebral Palsy: A Story
Living with cerebral palsy is enormously difficult. But what if you never knew you had it? This is the incredible story of Ilana Estelle. Born the second of premature twins, an hour apart, from a young age Ilana knew she was different, but for all the wrong reasons. A child of the 1960s, Ilana experienced first-hand the way that disability was, at the time, so often brushed under the carpet, not spoken about. Her constant physical and mental struggles made her feel isolated, alone, frustrated, and misunderstood... and it took 46 years for her to find out why. Part memoir, part motivational guide, this is Ilana's open and honest journey from an angry, confused child, knowing something was wrong, not knowing what was wrong, what her disability was, or that there was a diagnosis--to the "real" her--a courageous woman using her experiences and lessons to create inspiring messages about mental and physical health, resilience and change.
The Alcalde
As the magazine of the Texas Exes, The Alcalde has united alumni and friends of The University of Texas at Austin for nearly 100 years. The Alcalde serves as an intellectual crossroads where UT's luminaries - artists, engineers, executives, musicians, attorneys, journalists, lawmakers, and professors among them - meet bimonthly to exchange ideas. Its pages also offer a place for Texas Exes to swap stories and share memories of Austin and their alma mater. The magazine's unique name is Spanish for "mayor" or "chief magistrate"; the nickname of the governor who signed UT into existence was "The Old Alcalde."
