Book Description
Then he grabs my four-year-old sister by her hair. He saved her for last. With the knife, he grazes across her neck without cutting her......The first time, the second time, the third time.Abdallah Daher paints a picture of the hellish realities of war, and how living in the tension of constant fear can be overcome with hope and victory in Jesus. He doesn't promise us an easy path; He does promise to establish our steps along the way (Psalm 16:9). Fight is a true story of pain, survival and hope. "I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:33While we don't always understand why we have to live through such tragedy, there is a light that conquers the darkness. There is a hope that can propel an individual to overcome. This is Abdallah's story.

Escaping the Dark, Gray City
Author: Benjamin Heber Johnson
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300227760
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
A compelling and long-overdue exploration of the Progressive-era conservation movement, and its lasting effects on American culture, politics, and contemporary environmentalism The turn of the twentieth century caught America at a crossroads, shaking the dust from a bygone era and hurtling toward the promises of modernity. Factories, railroads, banks, and oil fields—all reshaped the American landscape and people. In the gulf between growing wealth and the ills of an urbanizing nation, the spirit of Progressivism emerged. Promising a return to democracy and a check on concentrated wealth, Progressives confronted this changing relationship to the environment—not only in the countryside but also in dense industrial cities and leafy suburbs. Drawing on extensive work in urban history and Progressive politics, Benjamin Heber Johnson weaves together environmental history, material culture, and politics to reveal the successes and failures of the conservation movement and its lasting legacy. By following the efforts of a broad range of people and groups—women’s clubs, labor advocates, architects, and politicians—Johnson shows how conservation embodied the ideals of Progressivism, ultimately becoming one of its most important legacies.

Pages : 91
Book Description
Within the pages of this book, you will experience the depth of my personal feelings from different times in my life. Things may appear rough and raw, but these things are the feelings of someone who isnt afraid to express herself through her words. You could be that person that is afraid to speak on the issue, but I spoke on the issue for you. You might find yourself saying, That is me. I am the one you speak of. Within the reflection of the mirror, there was only a skeleton, and within that skeleton was a hole. Let these words flow, like my fear flows, freely and without hesitation. Let these words show you the raw and rough as I stand before you feed up and confused. Let these words flow into your heart. Let these words pierce your soul and set you free. Let these words cast a cloud over the hurt and pain that is within. Let these words.

Pages : 484
Book Description
A Michael L. Printz Honor Book "This is East Texas, and there's lines. Lines you cross, lines you don't cross. That clear?" New London, Texas. 1937. Naomi Vargas and Wash Fuller know about the lines in East Texas as well as anyone. They know the signs that mark them. They know the people who enforce them. But sometimes the attraction between two people is so powerful it breaks through even the most entrenched color lines. And the consequences can be explosive. Ashley Hope Pérez takes the facts of the 1937 New London school explosion—the worst school disaster in American history—as a backdrop for a riveting novel about segregation, love, family, and the forces that destroy people. "[This] layered tale of color lines, love and struggle in an East Texas oil town is a pit-in-the-stomach family drama that goes down like it should, with pain and fascination, like a mix of sugary medicine and artisanal moonshine."—The New York Times Book Review "Pérez deftly weaves [an] unflinchingly intense narrative....A powerful, layered tale of forbidden love in times of unrelenting racism."―starred, Kirkus Reviews "This book presents a range of human nature, from kindness and love to acts of racial and sexual violence. The work resonates with fear, hope, love, and the importance of memory....Set against the backdrop of an actual historical event, Pérez...gives voice to many long-omitted facets of U.S. history."―starred, School Library Journal

It all began with my first flight to Europe. Walking onto the plane I expected horrible food and uncomfortable seats that I wouldn't be able to sleep in, but I expected good movies. When I got to my seat, I had a pillow, blanket, earplugs, and an eye mask waiting for me. I thought to myself "Wow! I didn't expect that!" On my flight, I realized the food was actually good, the movies are juicy, and the eye masks are a lifesaver. One thing I didn't realize is that my sleeping habits would change forever after this day.
