The Shocking Truth about Social...

Zoey Fraisers

Social movements have shaped the course of history, challenging oppressive systems, advocating for change, and giving a voice to the marginalized. From civil rights struggles to labor movements, from feminist activism to climate change protests, these collective efforts have demonstrated the power of ordinary people to influence political, social, and economic landscapes. But what makes a social movement successful? Why do some fizzle out while others spark revolutions? This book explores the truth behind social movements—their origins, strategies, challenges, and impact on society.
Social movements arise from deep-seated grievances, often triggered by inequality, injustice, or political repression. When institutions fail to address these concerns, people come together to demand change. While some movements rely on peaceful protests, petitions, and advocacy, others take a more radical or even violent turn. The paths they take can determine their success or failure. Movements like the U.S. civil rights movement and India’s independence struggle succeeded through persistent, organized, and nonviolent resistance. In contrast, some movements collapse due to internal divisions, government crackdowns, or loss of public support.
In today’s digital age, technology has transformed activism. Social media has made it easier to mobilize large numbers of people, spread awareness, and hold those in power accountable. However, it has also given rise to misinformation, government surveillance, and fleeting activism that lacks long-term commitment. Movements that once took years to build can now emerge overnight, but sustaining them remains a challenge.

Accordion Eulogies - A Memoir of...

Noé Álvarez

Searching, propulsive, and deeply spiritual, Accordion Eulogies is an odyssey to repair a severed family lineage, told through the surprising history of a musical instrument 
 
 
 
Growing up in Yakima, Washington, Noé Álvarez never knew his grandfather. Stories swirled around this mythologized, larger-than-life figure: That he had abandoned his family, and had possibly done something awful that put a curse on his descendants. About his grandfather, young Noé was sure of only one thing: That he had played the accordion. Now an adult, reckoning with the legacy of silence surrounding his family's migration from Mexico, Álvarez resolves both to take up the instrument and to journey into Mexico to discover the grandfather he never knew. 
 
 
 
Álvarez travels across the US with his accordion, meeting makers and players in cities that range from San Antonio to Boston. He uncovers the story of an instrument that's been central to classic American genres, but also played a critical role in indigenous Mexican history. Like the accordion itself, Álvarez feels trapped between his roots in Mexico and the US. As he tries to make sense of his place in the world—as a father, a son, a musician—he gets closer to uncovering the mystery of his origins.
