  The Shocking Truth about...

  Cultural appropriation is the act of taking or borrowing elements of one culture by members of another culture, typically without permission or proper understanding. This often occurs when a dominant culture adopts aspects of a marginalized or minority culture, without recognizing the significance or history behind these cultural symbols, practices, or traditions. While some might argue that cultural exchange is a natural part of globalization, cultural appropriation is controversial because it is frequently associated with power imbalances, exploitation, and the erasure of the identities of those whose culture is being borrowed. 
  At its core, cultural appropriation is not about borrowing something for appreciation or respect, but rather taking something from another culture in a way that is exploitative or disrespectful. For example, wearing traditional garments like a kimono or a Native American headdress as fashion statements, without understanding their cultural importance or context, is often cited as an example of cultural appropriation. These items are not just clothes or accessories; they carry deep meanings and are often tied to spiritual, ceremonial, or political significance. 
  One of the key aspects that distinguishes cultural appropriation from cultural appreciation is power dynamics. The group that appropriates tends to have more social, political, or economic power, while the culture being appropriated is often marginalized. This power imbalance is evident in many cases where elements of minority cultures are commodified and turned into trends or products, while the people from those cultures continue to face oppression, discrimination, and lack of recognition.

  Much is expected of a merfolk princess, and being a lesbian is not one of them. 
    
  Laela’s adventurous spirit and curiosity — sexual and otherwise — takes her far from the palace and prying eyes to explore the shipwrecks on the ocean floor. Out there, she has the privacy to experience her first time with another mermaid, and she believes her secret is safe — until her lover betrays her, selling their secret to the highest bidder. 
    
  On the brink of being forced into a marriage to a merman, Laela takes one last exploration voyage to a freshly sunk vessel. The first on the scene, Laela has the pick of the spoils — including a beautiful human woman, preserved alive in the hull of the ship. 
    
  After experiencing true bliss, will Laela be able to return to the palace, or will her magically inclined mentor be able to help her pass as a human on the surface?

  The Lies of the Land - Seeing...

  A "piercing, unsentimental" (New Yorker) history that boldly challenges the idea of a rural American crisis. 
   
   
    
  It seems everyone has an opinion about rural America. Is it gripped in a tragic decline? Or is it on the cusp of a glorious revival? Is it the key to understanding America today? Steven Conn argues that we're missing the real question: Is rural America even a thing? No, says Conn, who believes we see only what we want to see in the lands beyond the suburbs—fantasies about moral (or backward) communities, simpler (or repressive) living, and what it means to be authentically (or wrongheadedly) American. If we want to build a better future, Conn argues, we must accept that these visions don't exist and never did. 
   
   
   
  In The Lies of the Land, Conn shows that rural America—so often characterized as in crisis or in danger of being left behind—has actually been at the center of modern American history, shaped by the same forces as everywhere else in the country: militarization, industrialization, corporatization, and suburbanization. Examining each of these forces in turn, Conn invites us to dispense with the lies and half-truths we've believed about rural America and to pursue better solutions to the very real challenges shared all across our nation.
