Pages : 406
Book Description
Winner of the Labriola Center American Indian National Book Award 2017 Mohawk midwife Katsi Cook lives in Akwesasne, an indigenous community in upstate New York that is downwind and downstream from three Superfund sites. For years she witnessed elevated rates of miscarriages, birth defects, and cancer in her town, ultimately drawing connections between environmental contamination and these maladies. When she brought her findings to environmental health researchers, Cook sparked the United States’ first large-scale community-based participatory research project. In The River Is in Us, author Elizabeth Hoover takes us deep into this remarkable community that has partnered with scientists and developed grassroots programs to fight the contamination of its lands and reclaim its health and culture. Through in-depth research into archives, newspapers, and public meetings, as well as numerous interviews with community members and scientists, Hoover shows the exact efforts taken by Akwesasne’s massive research project and the grassroots efforts to preserve the Native culture and lands. She also documents how contaminants have altered tribal life, including changes to the Mohawk fishing culture and the rise of diabetes in Akwesasne. Featuring community members such as farmers, health-care providers, area leaders, and environmental specialists, while rigorously evaluating the efficacy of tribal efforts to preserve its culture and protect its health, The River Is in Us offers important lessons for improving environmental health research and health care, plus detailed insights into the struggles and methods of indigenous groups.

Essex Boy
Author: Bernard O'Mahoney
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1845968778
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
Two films and numerous books have attempted to tell the shocking story of two of Britain's most ruthless gangs. For 20 years, the Essex Boys firm and their successors, the New Generation, controlled a lucrative drugs empire in Essex and throughout the south east of England by using intimidation, gratuitous violence and murder. Rampaging through the streets and clubland, they destroyed anything and anybody that dared to get in their way. Eventually torn apart by greed and paranoia, the gang members became victims of their own vile trade and hate-filled actions. Pat Tate, Tony Tucker and Craig Rolfe were all blasted repeatedly with a shotgun as they sat in their Range Rover down a remote farm track. Dean Boshell was lured to allotments, then beaten and shot execution-style three times through the head. Others, such as Darren Nicholls and Damon Alvin, turned Super Grass and disappeared into the witness protection scheme never to be seen again, while three other men are in prison serving life sentences. Steve `Nipper` Ellis is the last man standing, the only member to have survived the bloody reign of both gangs. In Essex Boy, he tells his shocking story for the first time, and reveals just how close he came to being both murderer and murder victim.

Cafe Crazy

Category :

Pages :
Book Description
Don't be misled by the title of this book. Though a tomato may scream if you stab it, or the vicissitudes of domestic life lick your ankles below your TV tray like a lupine tongue, there is more method than madness to Francine Witte's portrayal of how crazy interweaves with the mundane in this collection. Read through Cafe Crazy and see just how sure her hand is on the tiller. Life may be fractured, and experience treacherous to navigate, but these poems offer a regenerative and welcome cohesion, guiding us surely through the complex truths and misunderstandings of the Human Experience. This is a voice you can trust to tell the real story; her story-telling gifts are in full force in these poems. Welcome to Cafe Crazy-enter here, though the aperture of a poetic voice in full command of its faculties. -George Wallace, Writer in Residence, Walt Whitman Birthplace In Cafe Crazy, Francine Witte serves up tough, street-smart narrators and injects them with an incurable sense of wit while exercising the imagination to its legal limits. The essence of Witte's work is sometimes dark, sometime playful, but always frighteningly addictive. -Meg Pokrass, author of The Dog Looks Happy Upside Down Francine Witte's Cafe Crazy serves up a series of singed epiphanies, the burn out of not one, but two marriages, their ashy remains. "Not all fires burn the same," the poet warns in the opening poem of this fine collection, and she's right-yet each betrayal burns, each ending leaves scars. This parallel journey of doomed relationships, the poet's and that of her parents', explores how love "gets lost inside somewhere while you're not paying attention." Witte's skill lies in her willingness to go deep, and to spare no one. She longs for love, "But love, like any bird, gets tired of flying and looks for a place to nest." These brave poems rise like the phoenix from the ashes. These are the poems that pull you through. These are the poems that save you. -Alexis Rhone Fancher, author of Enter Here; poetry editor, Cultural Weekly
