Book Description
In his world, people are judged by color... the color of their hoodie. That's how you know whose gang, and whose territory you're in. Yet there is an evil here that will stop at nothing to destroy even that. "Hoodie of God" offers another point of view into the racial unrest, and tension that still plagues humanity. Todays random shootings of innocent victims for no good reason, even by the police, can be stopped by the simple solution offered in the bible. In the streets of the "hoodies," one man has the answer. Enter this world of darkness, and follow the light as you discover what it takes to survive in such a world. This journey will amaze and bewilder you, as you find yourself wondering... is it real... or fiction?

It'll take the whole forest to undercover the thief and get the directionally challenged Little Red Hoodie back on track to Grandma's house. A companion to the delightfully irreverent Goldilocks, Go Home!, this latest from Martha Freeman features all the wit and charm of the first book as well as cameos by Bobby (Baby) Bear, the Pig Brothers from HoGTV, Chicken Little, and many more. Marta Sevilla's clever drawings effortlessly capture the spirited banter among characters as Little Red Hoodie and Bobby Bear take turns narrating the story.

Pretty Baby
Author: Chris Belcher
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982175826
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
A queer teen rebel escapes small-town Appalachia and becomes Los Angeles's Renowned Lesbian Dominatrix in this searing and darkly funny memoir that upends our understanding of sexuality, class, and power. "The dominatrix is the id of American femininity," writes Chris Belcher. "She says the words that we wish we could say when we find ourselves frozen. No is principal among them." From an early age, Belcher appeared destined for a life of conventional femininity. At all of eight months old, she took first place in an infant beauty contest, a minor glory that tends to follow you around a working-class town of 1,600 people in rural Appalachia. As a high school freshman, she goes along with what's expected of her: joining the cheerleaders and winning over the boys. Girls who cater to male desire are admired. But admiration is fleeting, double standards are enraging, and Belcher is restless for a chance to act on her own desires. When she falls in love with another girl and shares the secret of her queerness, the conservative community that had once celebrated its prettiest baby swiftly turns on her. A decade later and two thousand miles away, living in Los Angeles and trying to stay afloat in the early years of a PhD program, Belcher plunges into the work of a pro-domme. Branding herself as LA's Renowned Lesbian Dominatrix, she specializes in male clients who want a woman to make them feel worthless, shameful, and weak--all the abuse regularly heaped upon women for free. A queer woman whom men can trust with the unorthodox side of their sexualities, Belcher is paid to be the keeper of the fantasies that they can't enact in their everyday relationships. But moonlighting as a sex worker also carries risks, like the not-so-submissive who tries to turn the tables and the jealous client who seeks revenge through blackmail. Belcher refuses to feel shame about the work she does, but fear that her doctorate program won't approve--even in the field of gender and sexuality studies--burdens her with a double life. Pretty Baby is her second coming out. As Lisa Taddeo's New York Times bestseller Three Women gave us a revelatory look inside female desire, this sharp and discerning memoir dissects male desire--its harm, its greed, and its secrets--and examines how queerness could hold the answers to subverting it.

Confessions of an Animal Rights Terrorist
Author: Karen Levenson
Publisher: Lantern Books
ISBN: 159056622X
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
A searing memoir of an animal rights campaigner’s effort to stop Canada’s seal hunt, while handling domestic abuse and her partner’s long-term illness. When two government agents asked Karen Levenson whether she knew any terrorists or was one herself, she couldn’t have been more astonished. Passionately and professionally engaged in the struggle to end Canada’s seal hunt, she considered her efforts to persuade chefs to boycott Canadian seafood, her deep-dive investigation of hunt economics, and her campaign to end animal suffering not only as far from terrorism as possible, but the mission she’d been called upon to do since she was a child. But, as she relates in her vividly told and revelatory memoir, Levenson’s life has been marked by waves of unwarranted accusations and implicit or explicit violence: whether from government agencies, sealers, or even family members. Confessions of an Animal Rights Terrorist is at once an insider’s account of the decades-long attempt to end the seal hunt; an absorbing exploration of one woman’s growing awareness of animal cruelty and her emerging confidence, commitment, and knowledge; and a searingly honest memoir of domestic violence, caregiving, and the possibility of redemption. By turns infuriating, funny, and deeply moving, Confessions of an Animal Rights Terrorist reveals the extraordinary journey of an ordinary woman who comes face to face with breathtaking cruelty and does what she can to stop it.
