  What if the answers to our housing crisis weren't locked in government policy or developer margins but already being built, quietly, by communities across the world? 
  In Our Homes, Eco-builder and broadcaster Harrison Gardner explores inspiring, practical responses to the housing crisis - rooted not in a single solution, but in a diversity of approaches. From Cooperative Housing and land trusts to shared equity models and modular design, this book reveals how a patchwork of community-led ideas is already shaping a more hopeful future. 
  Part handbook, part call to action, Our Homes is a concise and accessible guide for anyone seekingto reimagine where and how we live. Because solving the housing crisis won't come from one fix, but from many. And it won't just be about building houses. It will be about building the kind of future we want to come home to.

  Cinema's Original Sin - DW...

  For over a century, cinephiles and film scholars have had to grapple with an ugly artifact that sits at the beginnings of film history. D. W. Griffith's profoundly racist epic, The Birth of a Nation, inspired controversy and protest at its 1915 release and was defended as both a true history of Reconstruction (although it was based on fiction) and a new achievement in cinematic art. Paul McEwan examines the long and shifting history of its reception, revealing how the film became not just a cinematic landmark but also an influential force in American aesthetics and intellectual life. 
   
   
   
  In every decade since 1915, filmmakers, museums, academics, programmers, and film fans have had to figure out how to deal with this troublesome object, and their choices have profoundly influenced both film culture and the notion that films can be works of art. Some critics tried to set aside the film's racism and concentrate on the form, while others tried to relegate that racism safely to the past. McEwan argues that from the earliest film retrospectives in the 1920s to the rise of remix culture in the present day, controversies about this film and its meaning have profoundly shaped our understandings of film, race, and art.
