  Mary Turner and the Mob - The...

  A reinterpretation of one of America's most notorious lynchings 
   
   
   
  The 1918 lynching of Mary Turner by a white mob in Brooks County, Georgia, is remembered and studied mainly because of the horror of an allegedly pregnant woman's murder. In Mary Turner and the Mob, author Thomas Aiello asserts that the gruesome details of Turner's execution have distracted historians from investigating the larger context of these terrible events. Turner was murdered but not pregnant, the author contends, and Walter White, the NAACP investigator in the case, knew this but obscured the facts because of the story's effectiveness. 
   
   
   
  Aiello approaches Turner's murder and broader violence in Brooks County not only as a series of lynchings in the rural South but also as events best understood as part of a sustained wave of racial violence during the long Red Summer, beginning in East St. Louis in 1917 and continuing until the Tulsa Massacre in 1921.

  Europe's Babylon - The Rise and...

  Before Amsterdam, there was a dazzling North Sea port at the hub of the known world: the city of Antwerp. 
   
   
   
  In the Age of Exploration, Antwerp was sensational like nineteenth-century Paris or twentieth-century New York. It was somewhere anything could happen or at least be believed: killer bankers, easy kisses, a market in secrets and every kind of heresy. For half the sixteenth century, it was the place for breaking rules—religious, sexual, intellectual. 
   
   
   
  And it was a place of change. Thomas More opened Utopia there, Erasmus puzzled over money and exchanges, William Tyndale sheltered there and smuggled out his Bible in English until he was killed. 
   
   
   
  But when Antwerp rebelled with the Dutch against the Spanish and lost, all that glory was buried and its true history rewritten. Mutinous troops burned the city records, trying to erase its true history. 
   
   
   
  In Europe's Babylon, Michael Pye sets out to rediscover the city that was lost and bring its wilder days to life using every kind of clue: novels, paintings, songs, schoolbooks, letters, and the archives of Venice, London, and the Medici.

  Let’s face it, the world as it is today wasn’t designed for neurodivergent people! 
  This means that as a neurodivergent, you need tools to help you through the tough times as best as possible. One of the best ways to do this is by working within the framework of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, also known as DBT. 
  DBT skills are very handy and helpful, but here’s the rub, it’s not often that they’re taught in a way that helps people who are neurodivergent. This is why this workbook has been written. Unlike other books out there, you’ll find this one very practical, and at no point will you be left scratching your head about what to do or how to be better at dealing with life’s stressors. It is written and narrated in simple English, and everything you’ll learn is clearly and concisely stated. You’ll be able to pick up these skills easily, working at your own pace. 
  Here the most relevant themes covered:What is neurodivergence? A brief overview to help you understand better Are you neurodivergent? Self-evaluation test, positive sides, and success storiesDialectical Behavioral Therapy: the current gold standard of psychotherapyStrategies for stress, anger, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and intrusive thoughtsDaily plan for emotional well-being 
  This workbook isn’t written with the intent to change your personality at its core. It is meant to help you figure out your emotions and regulate them, so they don’t overwhelm you to a crippling point. The exercises here will help you learn healthy coping mechanisms for when you’re overwhelmed. They’ll help you get better at learning what you need, stating those needs clearly, and meeting them yourself when required.
