  The Right to Oblivion - Privacy...

  Lowry Pressly

  We are able to configure privacy settings on our devices and social media platforms, but we know our efforts pale in comparison to the scale of surveillance capitalism and algorithmic manipulation. In our hyperconnected era, many have begun to wonder whether it is still possible to live a private life, or whether it is no longer worth fighting for. 
   
   
   
  The Right to Oblivion argues incisively and persuasively that we still can and should strive for privacy, though for different reasons than we might think. Recent years have seen heated debate in the realm of law and technology about why privacy matters, often focusing on how personal data breaches amount to violations of individual freedom. In a novel philosophical account, Pressly insists that privacy isn't simply a right to be protected but a tool for making life meaningful. 
   
   
   
  Privacy deepens our relationships with others as well as ourselves, reinforcing our capacities for agency, trust, play, self-discovery, and growth. Without privacy, the world would grow shallow, lonely, and inhospitable. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Hannah Arendt, Jorge Luis Borges, and a range of contemporary artists, Pressly shows why we all need a refuge from the world: not a place to hide, but a psychic space beyond the confines of a digital world in which the individual is treated as mere data.

  Literature and the New Culture...

  Can educators continue to teach troubling but worthwhile texts? 
   
   
   
  Our current "culture wars" have reshaped the politics of secondary literature instruction. Due to a variety of challenges from both the left and the right—to language or subject matter, to potentially triggering content, or to authors who have been canceled—school reading lists are rapidly shrinking. For many teachers, choosing which books to include in their curriculum has become an agonizing task with political, professional, and ethical dimensions. 
   
   
   
  In Literature and the New Culture Wars, Deborah Appleman calls for a reacknowledgment of the intellectual and affective work that literature can do, and offers ways to continue to teach troubling texts without doing harm. Rather than banishing challenged texts from our classrooms, she writes, we should be confronting and teaching the controversies they invoke. Her book is a timely and eloquent argument for a reasoned approach to determining what literature still deserves to be read and taught and discussed.

  Raising Riley - My Enigma

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  This is not a story about fixing a child. It is a story about learning how to fight for one. 
  When Riley began showing signs of neurodivergence at age three, his mother was thrust into a fragmented system of complex labels, conflicting guidance, and unanswered questions. What followed was a near decade-long journey of advocacy—navigating therapies, schools, medical decisions, and the emotional weight that comes with raising a neurodivergent child. 
  Spanning Riley’s early childhood through pre-adolescence, this memoir blends raw, honest storytelling with practical, hard-earned insight. Written for newly diagnosed parents, long-term caregivers, educators, therapists, and professionals, it offers perspectives that can’t be found in textbooks—only through lived experience. 
  At its heart, this is a story of resilience, fierce love, and the determination to show up again and again when the path forward feels uncertain. 
  Kristen Durham is an author, mother, and advocate living in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. She holds a master’s degree in Psychology and is a former licensed massage therapist. Now a writer and aspiring day trader, Kristen brings adaptability, analytical thinking, resilience, and persistence to her work. Her writing offers clarity, validation, and hope to those supporting neurodivergent children.
