  Populism, a term often used in modern political discourse, refers to movements or ideologies that seek to represent the interests of ordinary people, often contrasting with the perceived elite or establishment. Understanding the origins of populism requires exploring both its historical roots and its evolution over time. Though its contemporary forms are often associated with charismatic leaders and mass mobilization, populism has a deep and complex history that spans several centuries. 
  Historically, populism can trace its roots back to the late 19th century, when agrarian movements in the United States and Russia first used the term. The Populist Party, founded in the U.S. in 1891, advocated for the interests of farmers who felt exploited by industrial elites and urban centers. In Russia, the narodniks, or "people's movement," emerged around the same time, focusing on the belief that Russia’s future lay in the empowerment of the peasantry. These early populist movements were fueled by economic and social inequalities, with the central grievance being the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a few. 
  The core tenet of these early populist movements was the idea of a moral divide between the "pure" common people and the corrupt elites. This populist rhetoric resonated strongly with those who felt neglected by the political establishment, emphasizing a deep distrust of centralized political systems and economic power. Populism, then, was not simply about policy disagreements but a call for a deeper cultural and moral reckoning with societal inequalities.

  A Nation Again is the chaotic tale of the Scotland men's team's return to a major tournament after more than 20 years in the wilderness. 
  Ten had come and gone for Scotland since they reached France '98, but the birth of UEFA's Nations League offered a new route to glory. In early 2018, after a long search for Gordon Strachan's replacement, Alex McLeish became manager for a second time. Despite successfully navigating the Nations League group stage, it wasn't plain sailing, and his tenure ended after a shocking defeat at the start of Euro 2020 qualifying. 
  With a play-off semi-final on the horizon, the Scottish FA turned to Steve Clarke, who took on the challenge of inspiring a team rooted in failure, creating a band-of-brothers mentality and figuring out how to organise this incredibly talented group of players. From a couple of the lowest lows, came the highest high. 
  With exclusive memories and audio from those who were part of the journey, such as John McGinn, Stephen O'Donnell, Lyndon Dykes, Ryan Christie and David Marshall, this is the story of how Scotland finally became a nation again.

  Untangling the Sunday School Stories You Learned from the Biblical History You Haven't   
   
  · Biblical archaeologist unearths the riches of the historical and cultural contexts of the Bible 
  · Unveils God's Word as one glorious, world-changing story 
   
  When we first encounter the Bible, we are taught its stories--Adam and Eve, Moses and the Red Sea, David and Goliath, Jonah and the whale, and more. When a story lacks the details we crave, we fill in the blanks--with what we've seen in movies, read in books, and been told by our Sunday school teachers. But there's a better way to encounter the whole story of Scripture: uncovering and understanding the ancient world and the people who experienced biblical events. 
   
  In Stones Still Speak, Harvard-trained archaeologist and theologian Amanda Hope Haley scrapes back 2,000 years of misguided cultural interpretations to reveal God's Word in its historical, archaeological, and literary contexts. Far from a dry academic exercise, this process explains how our misunderstandings developed and revitalizes the Scripture you thought you knew, with the greater purpose of encouraging a more intentional, rigorous study of the Bible in your daily life.

  Before the Streetlights Come On...

  Climate change. Two words that are quickly becoming the clarion call to action in the twenty-first century. It is a voter issue, an economy driver, and a defining dynamic for the foreseeable future. Yet, in Black communities, climate change is seen as less urgent when compared to other pressing issues, including police brutality, gun violence, job security, food insecurity, and the blatant racism faced daily around the country. 
   
   
   
  However, with Black Americans disproportionately impacted by the effects of climate change—making up 13 percent of the US population but breathing 40 percent dirtier air and being twice as likely to be hospitalized or die from climate-related health problems than white counterparts—climate change is a central issue of racial justice and affects every aspect of life for Black communities. 
   
   
   
  In Before the Streetlights Come On, climate activist Heather McTeer Toney insists that those most affected by climate change are best suited to lead the movement for climate justice. McTeer Toney brings her background in politics, community advocacy, and leadership in environmental justice to this revolutionary exploration of why and how Black Americans are uniquely qualified to lead national and global conversations around systems of racial disparity and solutions to the climate crisis.
