Synopsis

Internet Access Divide examines the pervasive issue of digital inequality, highlighting the gap between those with and without reliable internet access. The book explores how this divide significantly impacts education, employment, and civic engagement, revealing that consistent connectivity is now essential for full participation in modern society. Through a blend of connectivity statistics and socioeconomic research, the book argues the digital divide is not merely a technological issue but a matter of social justice.

 
The book investigates the socioeconomic factors contributing to unequal access, such as income, education, and geographic location, and analyzes the consequences of this divide on various demographics. Readers will discover how initial hopes for the internet as a democratizing force have been shaped by market forces and policy decisions that have inadvertently created patterns of access and exclusion.

 
By integrating quantitative analysis with qualitative insights, the book provides a nuanced understanding of the lived experiences of those affected by the digital divide. Starting with an introduction to the concept and its measurement, the book progresses through socioeconomic factors influencing access, impacts on key areas like education and employment, and concludes with policy recommendations to bridge the gap. It offers a valuable resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and community advocates interested in understanding and addressing digital inequality.

    Writing and sharing fiction allows adolescents to glimpse other lives 
     
     
     
    The current curricular emphasis on analytical writing can make it feel risky to teach creative writing in ELA classrooms. But the opportunity to write fiction in school opens many doors for young people: doors the author argues are critical to the development of our students, our education system, and even our democracy. 
     
     
     
    This book will delight English teachers weary of focusing relentlessly on argument and information writing. Veteran teacher Ariel Sacks vividly describes the many academic, social–emotional, and community-building advantages of teaching imaginative writing in the classroom, not least of which is the impact it has on equity for marginalized students. Her book is a teacher-to-teacher text that folds in detailed, practical guidance about how to design lessons and meet standards, while presenting a powerful central argument: that the writing of fiction should be treated not as a luxury for some, but as a center of the English curriculum for all students.

    In Black Utopias Jayna Brown takes up the concept of utopia as a way of exploring alternative states of being, doing, and imagining in Black culture. Musical, literary, and mystic practices become utopian enclaves in which Black people engage in modes of creative worldmaking. Brown explores the lives and work of Black women mystics Sojourner Truth and Rebecca Cox Jackson, musicians Alice Coltrane and Sun Ra, and the work of speculative fiction writers Samuel Delany and Octavia Butler as they decenter and destabilize the human, radically refusing liberal humanist ideas of subjectivity and species. Brown demonstrates that engaging in utopian practices Black subjects imagine and manifest new genres of existence and forms of collectivity. For Brown, utopia consists of those moments in the here and now when those excluded from the category human jump into other onto-epistemological realms. Black people—untethered from the hope of rights, recognition, or redress—celebrate themselves as elements in a cosmic effluvium.

    Housing and urban policy play a crucial role in shaping the development and functioning of cities. These policies not only determine how housing is distributed, financed, and regulated but also have a profound impact on the quality of life for urban residents. As urban populations grow at unprecedented rates, particularly in developing regions, the need for comprehensive housing policies that address affordability, accessibility, and sustainability becomes increasingly urgent. 
    At its core, housing policy refers to the set of laws, regulations, and strategies designed to ensure that all residents have access to safe, affordable, and adequate housing. Urban policy, meanwhile, extends beyond housing to include broader strategies for city planning, infrastructure, and public services. Together, housing and urban policy aim to create cities that are not only livable but also resilient, inclusive, and sustainable. 
    Historically, housing policies have evolved in response to changing economic, social, and political circumstances. From post-war housing booms to modern challenges like urban sprawl and rising inequality, policies have adapted in varying ways. However, many cities still struggle with issues like the shortage of affordable housing, homelessness, and housing inequality. Rapid urbanization, exacerbated by global migration and population growth, has put further strain on already limited housing resources. As a result, addressing housing needs has become one of the foremost concerns for urban policymakers around the world.

    The underground rock wall in Rockwall, Texas has fascinated me for years. I’ve read everything I could online about it. Recently I moved from Los Angeles to Denton, Texas which is only about an hour drive from Rockwall. So I went there and spent an hour with the Rockwall County Museum Curator and learned a lot more about the structure.Was also able to examine and take pictures of the wall section moved from the actual wall and reconstructed outside the museum.In this book I’ve related the history of the wall’s discovery, excavations, interesting items and structures found on or near the wall, and information about possible giants who might have built it.There are a lot of unanswered questions about this structure which still need to be learned. Those questions are listed near the end of this book.
