Sinopse

Destination Equality Levels explores the crucial intersection of travel and social justice, offering a fresh perspective on ethical tourism by ranking global destinations based on their commitment to equality. The book highlights that a welcoming facade can often mask underlying discrimination against marginalized groups. For example, destinations with vibrant LGBTQ+ scenes may still lack comprehensive anti-discrimination laws, impacting the overall travel experience. This book empowers travelers to make informed choices that support inclusive destinations and encourages critical reflection on the social responsibility inherent in tourism.

 
The book's unique approach involves quantifying equality through measurable standards like marriage equality, healthcare access, and anti-discrimination enforcement. By analyzing legal frameworks and societal norms, Destination Equality Levels moves beyond subjective impressions to provide a data-driven assessment of each location. It acknowledges the influence of historical context, such as colonial legacies, on present-day equality levels.

 
The book progresses methodically, defining key concepts before introducing its ranking methodology, and then delves into thematic sections focusing on marriage rights, healthcare, and anti-discrimination.

 
Ultimately, the book argues that travelers can promote social progress by favoring destinations with strong equality protections. It blends politics and travel to offer a holistic understanding of equality and social justice within the tourism industry. This framework serves as a practical guide for travelers, travel agencies, and policymakers alike, offering actionable steps to support inclusive destinations and advocate for change.

    The best new writing, photography, art, and reportage from and about California—in the “rich and engrossing” series for travelers and armchair travelers (Times Literary Supplement). 
     
    From the Gold Rush to Hollywood’s golden age to the rise of Silicon Valley, California has long stood as the brightest symbol of the American dream. In recent years, however, the country’s mainstream media has been declaring with increasing frequency—and thinly veiled schadenfreude—the “end of California as we know it.” 
     
    The pessimists point to rising inequality, racial tensions, and the impact of climate change as evidence that the Californian dream has been shattered. Between extreme heat, months-long droughts, devastating wildfires, and rising sea levels, looking at California is like watching the trailer for what awaits the world if we don’t act to reduce global warming. Faced with these pressures, more and more Californians are leaving the state, leading to an unprecedented decline in population that could change the cultural and political balance of power in the country at large. 
     
    That said, demographic decline and climate disasters don’t tell the whole story of one of the most dynamic and diverse states in the Union—one that continues to drive technological and political innovation and define the evolution of work, food, entertainment, and social relations. This volume offers a fascinating picture of California in all its complexity and contradictions—an attempt to understand the laboratory where much of the world’s future continues to be written—with pieces including: 
     
    Growing Uncertainty in the Central Valley by Anna Wiener • How Does It Feel to Be a Solution? by Vanessa Hua • The Burning of Paradise by Mark Arax • Plus: direct democracy and unsustainable development, the rise of the “land back” movement, the cultural renaissance of Los Angeles in defiance of rampant gentrification, and much more . . .  
     
    “The Passenger readers will find none of the typical travel guide sections on where to eat or what sights to see. Consider the books, rather, more like a literary vacation.” —Publishers Weekly

    From goat men to witch ladies and spooky little girls, dive into the haunted history of Plano, Texas.   Plano's old homes and businesses are rife with haunted history. Explore eerie urban legends like the Goat Man, the Clown Threat, and Ranch 111, where devil worshipers performed their rituals. The Evaporating Apparition spooked the staff at the Art Centre Theatre, while the grumpy spirit of an old rancher stalks the Masonic Lodge. Some specters are harmless, such as the Giggling Ghost, a little girl in the Cox Building with a penchant for peanut butter and pranks. Other figures own a more sinister reputation. The Witch Lady of Plano was feared by city youth and monitored by the FBI. Mary Jacobs examines the ghostly fallout of Plano's darkest moments, from the smallpox epidemic to the gruesome Muncey family murders.
