  "All thriller, no filler.”— Dr. Indigo Willing, sociologist and lead researcher of Skate, Create, Educate and Regenerate and co-author of Skateboarding, Power and Change
  		 
  A vibrant, meticulously researched celebration of the women and non-binary skateboarders who defied a hostile industry and redefined skateboarding around the world
  		 
  With enthusiasm and empathy, Girl Gangs, Zines, and Powerslides celebrates the relentless participation of women in skateboarding from the 1960s onward who defied a hostile industry to carve out their own space through underground networks. Skater librarian Natalie Porter presents interviews and meticulous research, including the DIY zines created by female and non-binary skaters as a means of communication, to expose this unacknowledged story while offering a personal narrative about the importance of community-building and validation, with or without your own video game.
  		 
  Girl Gangs, Zines, and Powerslides disrupts the image of skateboarding as an exclusive male domain, offering historical context for the seemingly rapid progress of female skaters today seen competing on the Olympic stage. Discover how the collective action of a grassroots movement in the 1980s established meaningful change, building a foundation that has led to greater inclusion and diversity, which has inspired women, girls, and non-binary youth worldwide to roll on a skateboard for the first time or rediscover their youthful obsession as an adult and feel inspired to drop once again.

  You've spent your whole life trying to earn love instead of receiving it.
   
  
   
  You analyze every word. You wait for the other shoe to drop. You give everything, hoping it will finally be enough to make them stay.
   
  But love was never meant to be earned. It was meant to be felt.
   
  Somewhere along the way, you learned that your worth was conditional. That safety meant control. That love required sacrifice instead of surrender.
   
  These two guides reunite you with a different truth:
   
  Secure love begins within. Anxious thoughts are just old patterns looking for new evidence. The woman who stops chasing and starts choosing herself becomes magnetic through presence, not performance.
   
  You'll discover:
  
  How to quiet the overthinking that keeps love distant
  Why trying harder never made you feel safer
  The path from trauma bonding to authentic connection
  How to rebuild trust with yourself first
  
   
  You don't need another relationship. You need a different relationship with yourself.
   
  One where your nervous system remembers safety. Where you trust your instincts more than their words. Where love doesn't feel like a test you might fail.
   
  Grab your copy and begin the journey from seeking love to being love!

  The Architecture of Disability -...

  David Gissen

  Disability critiques of architecture usually emphasize the need for modification and increased access, but The Architecture of Disability calls for a radical reorientation of this perspective by situating experiences of impairment as a new foundation for the built environment. With its provocative proposal for "the construction of disability," this book fundamentally reconsiders how we conceive of and experience disability in our world. 
   
   
   
  Stressing the connection between architectural form and the capacities of the human body, David Gissen demonstrates how disability haunts the history and practice of architecture. Examining various historic sites, landscape designs, and urban spaces, he deconstructs the prevailing functionalist approach to accommodating disabled people in architecture and instead asserts that physical capacity is essential to the conception of all designed space. 
   
   
   
  By recontextualizing the history of architecture through the discourse of disability, Gissen presents a unique challenge to current modes of architectural practice, theory, and education. Envisioning an architectural design that fully integrates disabled persons into its production, it advocates for looking beyond traditional notions of accessibility and shows how certain incapacities can offer us the means to positively reimagine the roots of architecture.
