Under the bridge - Untold Story Behind the Murder of Reena Virk

Anonimo

Sinossi

Under the Bridge: Untold Story Behind the Murder of Reena Virk is a haunting exploration of one of Canada’s most tragic and unsettling crimes. Reena Virk, a fourteen-year-old girl, fell victim to a brutal act of violence at the hands of her peers, forever changing the community of Victoria, British Columbia. This book delves deep into the events leading up to that fateful November night, the horrifying attack beneath the Craigflower Bridge, and the aftermath that sparked a national conversation on bullying, youth violence, and the failures of the systems meant to protect vulnerable teens.
Through meticulous research, eyewitness accounts, and court records, Under the Bridge uncovers the untold aspects of Reena’s story—the toxic peer pressures, the hidden struggles of a young girl trying to find acceptance, and the dark realities of adolescent cruelty that shocked the nation. The book also sheds light on the enduring legacy of Reena’s murder, examining how it challenged societal views on youth crime and spurred reform in anti-bullying laws across the country.
This is not just a true crime story; it is a powerful reflection on humanity’s capacity for both violence and empathy. Under the Bridge invites readers to confront the uncomfortable truths about bullying, peer pressure, and the social dynamics that lead to unspeakable acts, while also honoring the memory of a life tragically cut short.

Ancient Libyans and Nubians The:...

Editors Charles River

During the several centuries that ancient Egypt stood as one of the greatest, if not the greatest, civilizations of the ancient world, conflicts with its neighbors often played a central role in hieroglyphic texts and art from temples and tombs. The three primary enemies of the Egyptians were the Libyans who occupied the Western Desert and its oases, the so-called Asiatics who lived in the Levant, and finally the Nubians to Egypt’s south. Among the three peoples, the Nubians were the most “Egyptianized” and at times were integral to the development of Egyptian history. Truly, the Nubians were the greatest of all sub-Saharan peoples in pre-modern times and deserve to be studied in their own right, apart from ancient Egyptian history.
The Canaanites and Nubians received the most attention as Egypt’s enemies and occasional trading partners, but it was the Libyans–the final third of Egypt’s traditional enemies–who influenced later Egyptian culture most. Unlike the Nubians and Canaanites, the Libyans were nearly always at war with the Egyptians. The reasons for the near constant warfare between the Libyans and Egyptians are difficult to discern, but more than likely stem from the fact that Libya was poor in resources, so the Egyptians had little reason to trade with the Libyans. On the other hand, the Libyans coveted Egypt's material wealth. The result was numerous putative campaigns by the Egyptians into Libya and raids by the Libyans into Egypt.
The wars between the Libyans and Egyptians reached a fevered pitch during the New Kingdom when the Libyans organized anti-Egyptian coalitions, and even formed an alliance with the mysterious Sea Peoples. By the Late New Kingdom, Egypt was an armed camp, yet it was ultimately unable to stem the tide of Libyan migration. The Libyans used their numbers to their advantage, eventually conquering Egypt and establishing two dynasties. Their ancestors created another two.

The Darién Gap - A Reporter's...

Belén Fernández

The narrow Darién Gap, the only land bridge connecting South and Central America, encompasses a spectacularly hostile jungle, covered in steep mountains, dense rainforests, and flood-prone marshes. Known in Spanish as el infierno verde, or “the green hell,” it is one of the most inhospitable places in the world. Its terrain is too treacherous for roads, yet hundreds of thousands of refuge seekers contend with its horrors every year in the hopes of reaching the United States, still some three thousand miles away. And of the countless who set out for the border, an untold number never arrive. In this book, journalist Belén Fernández travels through the Darién Gap to report on the dehumanizing and deadly stretch of land that has become a mass graveyard for migrants. Fernández’s journey brings her into contact with refuge seekers, people smugglers, law enforcement officials, and many more whose stories bring life to a place overwhelmingly associated with death. Combining history, on-the-ground reporting, travelogue, memoir, and searing politico-economic analysis, she shines light on a largely made-in-the-USA crisis that has come to define our modern era.

This book helps students, academics and other knowledge workers to get more done, write intelligent texts and learn for the long run.

The Take Smart Notes principle is based on established psychological insight and draws from a tried and tested note-taking technique: the Zettelkasten.

It suits students and academics in the social sciences and humanities, nonfiction writers and others who are in the business of reading, thinking and writing.
Instead of wasting your time searching for your notes, quotes or references, you can focus on what really counts: thinking, understanding and developing new ideas in writing.
