Sinopsis

In "Legends, Traditions and Laws of the Iroquois & History of the Tuscarora Indians," Elias Johnson meticulously presents a rich tapestry of Native American heritage, encapsulating the culture, beliefs, and societal structures of the Iroquois and Tuscarora tribes. Through a combination of oral histories, myths, and legal traditions, Johnson employs a narrative style that harmonizes academic rigor with vivid storytelling, reflecting the oral tradition prevalent in Indigenous cultures. The book serves not only as an invaluable historical resource but also as a literary testament to the resilience and vibrancy of Indigenous identity amidst colonial challenges. Elias Johnson, a prominent figure in the study of Native American history, draws upon his deep-rooted commitment to preserving Indigenous narratives. His background and experiences with Native communities undoubtedly informed his scholarly endeavors, as he seeks to elevate Indigenous voices that have often been marginalized in mainstream historiography. Johnson's work is not just an academic pursuit; it is a passionate reclamation of Indigenous agency and culture. I highly recommend this book to scholars, students, and anyone interested in Native American history and culture. Johnson's in-depth exploration of the Iroquois and Tuscarora provides critical insights into the intricate legal and mythological frameworks that have shaped their societies, making it essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the profound legacies of Indigenous peoples.

  • A Burning House - Redeeming American Evangelicalism by Examining Its History Mission and Message - cover

    A Burning House - Redeeming...

    Despite the civil rights progress he fought for and saw on the horizon in the 1950s and '60s, Martin Luther King Jr.—increasingly concerned by America's moral vision, admitted—"I've come to believe that we are integrating into a burning house." 
    In A Burning House, Brandon Washington contends that American Evangelicalism is a house ablaze: burning in the destructive fires of discrimination and injustice. The stain of segregation remains prevalent, not only in our national institutions, but also in our churches, and this has long tarnished the witness of Christianity and hampered our progress toward a Christ-like vision of Shalom—peace, justice, and wholeness—in the world. Common doctrine may unite black and white evangelicals, but rifts such as social ethics and cultural influences still separate us. 
    Throughout this challenging but reconciliatory book, Washington gives a historical and theological appraisal of American evangelicalism to understand how we came to be where we are and what our response should be. Instead of calling the movement to become something new, he challenges it to live into what it has always been in Christ and strive for deliberate and sacrificial integration—the unity of believers of all ethnicities. 
    A Burning House is a rallying call to a waning movement whose most public leaders have often turned a blind eye to, or even justified, the sin of racism—a movement whose theology is sometimes compromised by a secular anthropology. This is a call to both white and black evangelicals to better understand our past so that we can better embrace the unifying and comprehensive message of the gospel we preach.

    Are Your Kids Psychic? - And How...

    Are Your Kids Psychic by Eric Stillwell offers a simple test you can perform at home to find out. The book also covers other, more elaborate tests as well as information on psychic phenomena and why we have these latent abilities. 
    Psychic ability might be an inherent but latent aspect of consciousness, accessible when the mind transcends normal sensory filtering. By cultivating awareness through meditation, intuition practice, and altered states, humans may tap into a wider reality field where these abilities become natural expressions. 
    An even simpler explanation is that we are biological creatures living in a biological world that is interconnected on so many levels we take for granted. Whether the fact that an extensive mycelium network runs underground connecting trees and plants, or the sensory perceptions of animals, or how a dog knows you are a kind person or not, there is much evidence for something greater than ourselves. 
    Children have not been indoctrinated at an early age and, as such, are open to many things. 
    If you know that your child was naturally psychic, wouldn’t you want to ensure that they could maximize this gift rather than bury it in our societal trap? 
    "A wonderful home experiment that my kids enjoyed and wowed my wife and me with the results." Morgan Jones

    A former officer grapples with the reality of our broken police culture 
     
     
     
    Our society has long been stuck in cultural and ideological battles about police brutality and the police force's broken relationship with our communities. Rethinking the Police promises to start a more hopeful conversation. 
     
     
     
    Daniel Reinhardt spent twenty-four years as a police officer near Cleveland, Ohio. He was long unaware of the ways the culture of the police department was shaping him, but gradually, through his own experiences as a police officer and through the mentorship of Black Christians in his life, his eyes were opened to a difficult truth: police brutality against racial minorities was endemic to the culture of the system itself. 
     
     
     
    In Rethinking the Police, Reinhardt lays out a history of policing in the United States, showing how it developed a culture of dehumanization, systemic racism, and brutality. But Reinhardt doesn't stop there: he offers a new model of policing based not in dominance and control but in a culture of servant leadership, with concrete suggestions for procedural justice and community policing.
