Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Contrary to the opinions of Al Gore and the UN climatologists, CO2 concentration IS NOT the dominant influence on the global average temperature of the planet. This is why there is NO global climate crisis. -- For more than 30 years environmental activists have been blaming PEOPLE for causing global warming by driving cars, flying on jets, and just by living our lives. People use fossil fuels including oil, gas, and coal, which produces carbon dioxide (CO2), a colorless, odorless, nontoxic gas. Human's emit CO2 when we exhale. The earth's oceans, soil, plants, animals and volcanoes are all natural sources of CO2 emissions. -- Global warming, and at times global cooling has existed for more than 2.5 billion years. It is known as climate variability. -- The earth has managed to start and end four massive ice ages during the last 2.4 billion years, all before there was any human existence on the planet. Civilized human beings have only existed for about 6,000 years, and human industrial CO2 emissions have occurred for only 170 +/- years. -- Read the facts about why CO2 is NOT causing global warming, and why it never will. It is even more important for you to understand why this hoax is being perpetuated -- Global warming is not a climate issue. It is a political issue. Global warming is propaganda against God's creation, against American sovereignty, and against American Liberty -- Arm yourself with the Facts in the blockbuster book Inconvenient Facts, proving Global Warming is a Hoax, the Common Sense facts for the Basket of Deplorables.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Nominated for the 2005 Norma Fleck Award Thousands of mothers carried their babies to the gates of the Foundling Hospital desperate to save them from the cruel streets of eighteenth-century London. Each baby was left with a personal token - identification if a repentant mother ever returned to reclaim her child. Captain Thomas Coram, himself childless, was inspired by the sight of babies abandoned on dung heaps to petition the king for support in building a home for England's poorest children. Coram's vision saved countless children's lives. A Home for Foundlings describes the hospital Captain Coram founded, the luminaries involved - including Handel, Hogarth, and Dickens - and the daily lives of the foundlings themselves. Full of archival photos and materials, and published in cooperation with the newly established Foundling Museum in London and Lord Cultural Resources, A Home for Foundlings is a fascinating, heartbreaking, and timely book. Author Marthe Jocelyn's text has particular resonance: her grandfather, Arthur Jocelyn, was raised in the Foundling Hospital.…

Hardback. Etat : Good. Shortlisted, 2024 Stephan Russo Book Prize for Social JusticeA Ms. Magazine Most Anticipated BookAn original argument that the answer to mass incarceration lies not with experts and pundits, but with ordinary people taking extraordinary actions together?written by a leading authority on bail reform and social movementsFrom reading books on mass incarceration, one might conclude that the way out of our overly punitive, racially disparate criminal system is to put things in the hands of experts, technocrats able to think their way out of the problem. But, as Jocelyn Simonson points out in her groundbreaking new book, the problems posed by the American carceral state are not just technical puzzles; they present profound moral questions for our time. Radical Acts of Justice tells the stories of ordinary people joining together in collective acts of resistance: paying bail for a stranger, using social media to let the public know what everyday courtroom proceedings are like, making a video about someone?s life for a criminal court judge, presenting a budget proposal to the city council. When people join together to contest received ideas of justice and safety, they challenge the ideas that prosecutions and prisons make us safer; that public officials charged with maintaining ?law and order? are carrying out the will of the people; and that justice requires putting people in cages. Through collective action, these groups live out new and more radical ideas of what justice can look like. In a book that will be essential reading for those who believe our current systems of policing, criminal law, and prisons are untenable, Jocelyn Simonson shows how to shift power away from the elite actors at the front of the courtroom and toward the swelling collective in the back.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. If your spouse or someone you know has been deployed recently, the stress of this situation will resonate with you. Jocelyn Green speaks directly to the wives of deployed soldiers, airmen, seamen, and marines through the experiences of their spouses. This book is not "ten easy steps" for a painless life; instead, it is a collection of devotions that squarely addresses the challenges wives face when their husbands are away protecting freedom, challenges like: How does a military wife maintain a strong sense of patriotism without allowing her country to become an idol?

Hardback. Etat : Good. "A badass debut by any measure--nimble, knowing, and electrifying." --Colson Whitehead, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Nickel Boys and Harlem Shuffle ".'My Monticello' is, quite simply, an extraordinary debut from a gifted writer with an unflinching view of history and what may come of it." -- The Washington Post Winner of the Weatherford Award in Fiction A winner of 2022 Lillian Smith Book Awards A young woman descended from Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings driven from her neighborhood by a white militia. A university professor studying racism by conducting a secret social experiment on his own son. A single mother desperate to buy her first home even as the world hurtles toward catastrophe. Each fighting to survive in America. Tough-minded, vulnerable, and brave, Jocelyn Nicole Johnson's precisely imagined debut explores burdened inheritances and extraordinary pursuits of belonging. Set in the near future, the eponymous novella, "My Monticello," tells of a diverse group of Charlottesville neighbors fleeing violent white supremacists. Led by Da'Naisha, a young Black descendant of Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings, they seek refuge in Jefferson's historic plantation home in a desperate attempt to outlive the long-foretold racial and environmental unravelling within the nation. In "Control Negro," hailed by Roxane Gay as "one hell of story," a university professor devotes himself to the study of racism and the development of ACMs (average American Caucasian males) by clinically observing his own son from birth in order to "painstakingly mark the route of this Black child too, one whom I could prove was so strikingly decent and true that America could not find fault in him unless we as a nation had projected it there." Johnson's characters all seek out home as a place and an internal state, whether in the form of a Nigerian widower who immigrates to a meager existence in the city of Alexandria, finding himself adrift; a young mixed-race woman who adopts a new tongue and name to escape the landscapes of rural Virginia and her family; or a single mother who seeks salvation through "Buying a House Ahead of the Apocalypse." United by these characters' relentless struggles against reality and fate, My Monticello is a formidable book that bears witness to this country's legacies and announces the arrival of a wildly original new voice in American fiction.…
