Beschreibung

In "The Cherokee Nation of Indians," Charles C. Royce provides a meticulously researched and richly detailed account of the history, culture, and governance of the Cherokee people. This work stands out not only for its extensive historical insights but also for its illustrative narrative style, which blends scholarly rigor with engaging prose. Royce contextualizes the evolution of the Cherokee Nation against the backdrop of broader American history, including the impact of colonialism and the Indian Removal Act. Through this lens, he captures the complexity of Cherokee identity, highlighting both resilience and adaptation within changing political landscapes. Charles C. Royce was an eminent scholar and historian whose interests encompassed Native American history and ethnology. His extensive fieldwork and personal interactions with Native communities deeply informed his writing. Royce's commitment to presenting accurate and respectful representations of Indigenous cultures stemmed from his advocacy for the rights and recognition of Native peoples during a time when their histories were often overlooked or misrepresented by mainstream narratives. This book is essential for anyone interested in Native American studies, American history, or the dynamics of cultural preservation. Royce's engaging yet scholarly approach invites readers to appreciate the richness of the Cherokee Nation's history while fostering a deeper understanding of the ongoing narratives surrounding Indigenous communities in America.

    A thin, balding, and reclusive middle-aged Russian by the name of Rudolf Ivanovich Abel was one of the Soviet Union's most renowned spies during the Cold War of the 1950s . . . . until his cover was blown by an incompetent colleague who wanted to defect to the United States. This is the full account of Abel's espionage work, his dramatic apprehension, his eventual conviction and its affirmation by the United States Supreme Court, and finally, his surprising release back to Russia. 
     
     
     
    As the authorities hunted down Abel, the FBI had in hand his tools of trade but little else in the way of hard leads. After Abel was located, his modest hotel in Manhattan was staked out by the FBI for over a month before he was eventually arrested and tried for espionage. 
     
     
     
    After his conviction, Abel appealed his case to the Second Court of Appeals. His conviction was affirmed, and the case proceeded to the Supreme Court, which was sharply divided. 
     
     
     
    The cliffhanger facing Abel for the next several years was whether he would face the electric chair, remain in prison for the rest of his life, or be exchanged for an American spy held by the Russians. His fate remained in the balance.

    “The white race is the biggest murderer, rapist, pillager, and thief of the modern world.” So said journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones. 
    Had she said this about any other race, it is unlikely that she would ever have found employment with a mainstream media outlet. Yet not only was Nikole Hannah-Jones hired by The New York Times; she received the coveted Pulitzer Prize for journalism for the 1619 project which also defames white people. 
    Why is it that such hateful rhetoric is no barrier to employment at The New York Times, whilst criticism of any other racial group would have you fired in a New York minute? Why is Critical Race Theory and its defamation of white people and their societies seeping into every corner of education, the media, and the corporate world? 
    These and other questions need answers because Western civilisation in Australia and elsewhere is facing an existential threat. Anglophobia The Unrecognised Hatred analyses and articulates the root causes of this pervasive anti-white hatred. 
    The book is a systematic rejection of the hypocritical notion that racism is acceptable – so long as it is only directed at white men, women and children.

    Human trafficking is one of the most pressing social justice issues of our time, and in recent years there has been renewed interest among Christians, as many have been stirred up to take their part in the ongoing battle.
    This is a wonderful thing—and yet misinformed and misguided efforts can do more harm than good. Ending Human Trafficking is a handbook designed to educate churches and parachurch organizations for truly effective work.
    In collaboration with The Global Center for Women and Justice at Vanguard University, Ending Human Trafficking is an accessible and compelling resource for Christian leaders, written by seasoned leaders in the struggle against modern slavery. Grounded in a theological response to the issue and filled with stories, up-to-date data, and practical tools and tips, it promises to be an invaluable resource for years to come.

    Author and journalist Cody McDevitt tells the story of one of the worst civil rights injustices in Western Pennsylvania history. 
     
     
     
    In 1923, in response to the fatal shooting of four policemen, the mayor of Johnstown ordered every African American and Mexican immigrant who had lived in the city for less than seven years to leave. They were given less than a day to move or would face crippling fines or jail time and were forced out at gunpoint. An estimated two thousand people uprooted their lives in response to the racist edict. Area Ku Klux Klan members celebrated the creation of a "sundown town" and increased their own intimidation practices. Figures such as Marcus Garvey spoke out in Pittsburgh against it as newspapers throughout the country published condemnations.
