  Set against the extraordinary events of January 6, 2021, Aquilino Gonell’s inspirational memoir is rooted in the joys and struggles of the immigrant experience that have long defined the American experiment 
   
  Aquilino Gonell came to the United States from the Dominican Republic as a young boy. Although he spoke no English, he dedicated himself to his adopted land, striving for the American dream. Determined to be a success story, he joined the army to pay for college. He saw action in Iraq and returned home with PTSD. Believing in the promise of our government, he focused on healing himself and supporting his family. His hard work paid off when he landed a coveted position with the United States Capitol Police and rose to the rank of sergeant. 
   
  January 6, 2021, changed everything. When insurrectionists stormed the Capitol, Gonell bravely faced down the mob attempting to thwart the peaceful transfer of power. The brutal injuries he sustained that day would end his career in law enforcement. But when some of the very people he put his life on the line to protect downplayed or denied the truth of that day, he chose to speak out against the injustice done to him and the country. Chronicling what it means to live a life of conviction, one that adheres to the best ideas of our democracy, American Shield is a bold testament to the power of truth, justice, and accountability from a highly decorated officer and immigrant who exemplifies the greatest aspirations of a grateful nation.

  The Bauhaus Movement is one of the most influential art and design movements of the 20th century, shaping not only the world of architecture, but also industrial design, graphic design, and education. Founded in 1919 in Weimar, Germany, the Bauhaus school represented a radical shift in the way artists and designers approached their work, bridging the gap between art and industrial production. The term "Bauhaus," which translates to "building house," symbolized the school's fundamental belief in the fusion of craftsmanship and design with new technological advances. It advocated for an integrated, functional approach to design, emphasizing simplicity, clean lines, and the use of modern materials such as steel, glass, and concrete. 
  At the heart of the Bauhaus movement was the idea of total design, an approach that sought to unify art, craft, and industry into a single cohesive whole. The Bauhaus school emphasized collaboration between artists, architects, and designers, breaking down the traditional boundaries between fine arts and applied arts. This approach was revolutionary at a time when art was still often considered a separate entity from industrial production. The school encouraged students to experiment with new techniques and materials, while maintaining a commitment to functional design that was both aesthetically pleasing and usable in the modern world. 
  One of the defining features of the Bauhaus movement was its focus on the intersection of art and technology. The early 20th century saw rapid advancements in industrial production and materials science, which gave rise to new possibilities in design. Bauhaus educators believed that the application of these new technologies should be at the core of creative work. This philosophy led to the creation of iconic pieces of modern furniture, groundbreaking architectural designs, and revolutionary typography that defined the aesthetic of the era.

  The present consideration of the Bacon--Shakspere--Rosicrucian controversy is undertaken not for the vain purpose of digging up dead men's bones but rather in the hope that a critical analysis will aid in the rediscovery of that knowledge lost to the world since the oracles were silenced.
