  ‘From War to Eternity’ traces an extraordinary family story shaped by the forces of war, migration, and the enduring quest for identity. Sydney Doulames brings to life the journeys of her parents Anneliese, who came of age amid the ruins of postwar Germany, and Eduardo, who navigated the turbulence of wartime Philippines with determination and grace. Their separate struggles to survive hardship and loss ultimately led them across continents to find each other, forging an unlikely bond that would define generations. From the hunger and fear of a bombed-out German village to the crowded hospitals of the Pacific theater, this book illuminates how ordinary people rise to meet unthinkable challenges. When Anneliese and Eduardo build a life together, first in Guam and later in California, their marriage is tested by the scars of the past and the strains of cultural divides. Even as they face heartbreak and upheaval, their story reveals an unshakable devotion to family. With honesty and tender reflection, Sydney Doulames explores themes of love, belonging, and the ways our origins shape us. ‘From War to Eternity’ is both a tribute to her parents’ courage and a reminder that even the most fragmented histories can be outgrown into something lasting and meaningful.

  In The Future Is Disabled, Leah Laksmi Piepzna-Samarasinha asks some provocative questions: What if, in the near future, the majority of people will be disabled—and what if that's not a bad thing? And what if disability justice and disabled wisdom are crucial to creating a future in which it's possible to survive fascism, climate change, and pandemics and to bring about liberation? 
   
   
   
  Building on the work of her game changing book Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice, Piepzna-Samarasinha writes about disability justice at the end of the world, documenting the many ways disabled people kept and are keeping each other—and the rest of the world—alive during Trump, fascism, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Other subjects include crip interdependence, care, and mutual aid in real life, disabled community building, and disabled art practice as survival and joy. 
   
   
   
  Written over the course of two years of disabled isolation during the pandemic, this is a book of love letters to other disabled QTBIPOC (and those concerned about disability justice, the care crisis, and surviving the apocalypse); honor songs for kin who are gone; recipes for survival; questions and real talk about care, organizing, disabled families, and kin networks and communities; and wild brown disabled femme joy in the face of death.
