Sinopsis

Sugar Expansion explores the captivating yet brutal history of sugar, a commodity that transformed from a luxury to a ubiquitous ingredient, fueling empires and reshaping global economies. This book delves into the economic and historical forces behind sugar production, revealing how the plantation system, reliant on slave labor, profoundly impacted social structures and fueled the transatlantic slave trade. Understanding sugar's past provides insights into the formation of modern capitalism and global inequality, illustrating how the demand for sugar spurred innovation while perpetuating systems of oppression.

 
The book methodically progresses across chapters, starting with the origins of sugar cultivation and its spread from Asia to Europe. It details the establishment of sugar plantations in the Americas, the transatlantic slave trade, and the economic structures that supported this system. Later sections examine the industrialization of sugar production, the rise of beet sugar, and shifting global consumption patterns.

 
By drawing upon archival sources and quantitative data, Sugar Expansion offers a nuanced perspective on the complex interplay between economic incentives, political power, and human suffering.

Civics for the World to Come - Committing to Democracy in Every Classroom - cover

Civics for the World to Come -...

Help students use their voices to build an equitable and just society. 
 
 
 
Years of political violence and protests against injustice have revived interest in teaching civics in schools. The problem? Civic education—as it currently exists—privileges systems, not students. It promotes incremental change within a broken democracy rather than responding to the youth-led movements that call for the abolition of inequitable social structures. What will it take to prepare young people for the just future they are fighting for? 
 
 
 
Civics for the World to Come offers educators a framework for designing the critical civic education that our students deserve. Synthesizing perspectives on democratic life from critical race theory, ethnic studies, Afrofuturism, and critical literacy, the book presents key practices for cultivating youth civic agency grounded in equity and justice. The authors explore five world-building civic skills (Inquiry, Storytelling, Imagination, Networking, and Advocacy) and introduce listeners to real learning communities where students and educators are transforming themselves and society.
