Summary

Criminalization Impact Zones explores the profound and often-overlooked consequences of anti-LGBTQ laws on both individuals and society. The book argues that the state-sanctioned homophobia in many nations leads to significant data integrity issues, creating "criminalization impact zones" where LGBTQ individuals are statistically erased due to fear of persecution. This statistical erasure hinders the development of effective public health initiatives, social support systems, and legal protections.

 
The book progresses by first outlining the historical and social context of anti-LGBTQ laws, then examining their impact on community structures and individual well-being. A key insight is how these laws, often rooted in colonial legacies and religious fundamentalism, undermine the accuracy and reliability of population data.

 
The book uniquely emphasizes the data collection challenges inherent in studying marginalized populations under repressive regimes, advocating for innovative strategies to ensure ethical and accurate data gathering, such as community-based research. Through a mixed-methods approach combining statistical analysis with ethnographic insights, the book connects to human rights law, public health, and sociology. It provides a nuanced understanding of how social stigma and discrimination shape LGBTQ identities and community structures, offering valuable information for policymakers, researchers, and human rights advocates alike.

    A cup. A chalice. A dish or platter. Even a lance or bloodline. The Holy Grail has become so many things to so many people. Over a vast period of time its story has evolved, changed, morphed, merged and even been manipulated. It has become a corner stone of Royal power or a secret so devilishly powerful that it could bring down a religion followed by over a billion people. 
     
    We are told it originated with the man called Jesus Christ. That it was the chalice which caught his blood as he died upon the cross. And yet, it already existed in-order to do so. It was already held sacred and dear to those with esoteric knowledge. This is why it was used to collect the holy blood of the most holy man. 
     
    Marketing and propaganda, books and movies have all become the source of the confusing idea that now surrounds the Grail. Is it a cup or is it really the truth about the bloodline of Gods only son? Are the children of Jesus and Mary now walking amongst us? No. The answer is simple. This is a blindside, a distraction, created to divert us from the real powerful truth of the Holy Grail. The real truth is much more interesting. Much more powerful. The real truth will give us all eternal life. The Legend of the Grail is one of everlasting life. It is nothing less than the quest for immortality.

  • Ancient Egyptian Conspiracy Theories: The History of the Most Popular Conspiracy Theories about Egypt in Antiquity - cover

    Ancient Egyptian Conspiracy...

    Given how far back the Egyptian civilization goes, it’s no surprise that Egypt is still full of mystery, and the unknown continues to generate conspiracy theories that attempt to fill in the gaps. For example, generations have viewed Egypt’s pyramids and the Great Sphinx as symbols of a lost past, which in turn leads to Egypt’s portrayal as a world full of romance and mystery. The age and structural integrity of these magnificent structures also make them symbols of longevity and power, which is only fitting because those are two purposes the ancient pharaohs who commissioned them intended them to serve. 
    In fact, while the sphinx was a well-known mythological creature among various ancient civilizations, the Egyptian statue that is now most famously associated with the creature is full of mysteries that have been endlessly debated throughout the centuries and continue to be hotly contested among scholars. The famous “Riddle of the Sphinx”, told by Sophocles in his play Oedipus Rex in the 5th century B.C., characterized the sphinx as a clever and powerful creature, and the mysteries of the Egyptian statue were discussed even among the ancient Romans. Even the source of the damage suffered by the Sphinx has become the stuff of legend, as evidenced by the story of Napoleon’s French soldiers shooting off the Sphinx’s nose. 
    Of course, the Sphinx is merely one object in Egypt that has been the source of endless theories. The discovery of King Tutankhamun’s tomb revived the legends of pharaohs’ curses and mummies, and ancient Egyptian art has been analyzed in seemingly every conceivable way possible as people come up with alternate theories for how the Egyptians built their most famous buildings and forged their enduring civilization.

  • We Need To Talk - The truth about sexual violence and my fight for justice - cover

    We Need To Talk - The truth...

    'As inspiring as it is enraging, Emily Hunt turns trauma into action, exposing a criminal justice system that fails women, and a culture that enables violence against us. A rallying call for change, and a powerful lesson in perseverance from a woman who would not give up.' The Guardian 
    Emily was in a restaurant, having lunch with her father – the next thing she remembers is waking up, naked, in a strange hotel room, next to a man she did not know. She suspected she had been drugged and raped. She later found out she had been filmed without her consent. 
    What happened to her that night could have happened to anyone. What came next happens to far too many victims, as failures by the police, CPS and other parts of the system, led to Emily doubting she would ever find justice. 
    Six years after her attack, Emily is an adviser to the UK Government on sexual violence. Part memoir and part investigation, Emily shines a light on the fault lines of a system and a society that is failing rape victims. We Need To Talk looks at how rape is a mainstream, everyday problem deeply damaging victims, their families, their workplaces and the economy. 
    This is a conversation starter about why we don’t talk about rape; that the only cause of rape is rapists, not rape victims; who commits rape and why; the reasons why society defaults to blaming the victim; and ultimately how we need to change and humanise the way we talk about rape in order to truly hear and support victims and end the current epidemic of sexual violence.

    We Are All Armenian - Voices...

    A collection of essays about Armenian identity and belonging in the diaspora. 
     
     
     
    In the century since the Armenian Genocide, Armenian survivors and their descendants have written of a vast range of experiences using storytelling and activism, two important aspects of Armenian culture. Wrestling with questions of home and self, diasporan Armenian writers bear the burden of repeatedly telling their history, as it remains widely erased and obfuscated. Telling this history requires a tangled balance of contextualizing the past and reporting on the present, of respecting a culture even while feeling lost within it. 
     
     
     
    We Are All Armenian brings together established and emerging Armenian authors to reflect on the complications of Armenian ethnic identity today. These personal essays elevate diasporic voices that have been historically silenced inside and outside of their communities, including queer, multiracial, and multiethnic writers. The eighteen contributors to this contemporary anthology explore issues of displacement, assimilation, inheritance, and broader definitions of home. Through engaging creative nonfiction, many of them question what it is to be Armenian enough inside an often unacknowledged community.
