  Life and Death at Abbey Gate -...

  As the American government began a disastrous mass evacuation of its Afghan allies, a group of American veterans saw the writing on the wall—the people who had supported them on the ground over the past two decades were going to be left behind. Instead of watching on the sideline, they sprang into action. The effort became known nationally as #DigitalDunkirk, in reference to the civilian aspect of the evacuation of soldiers from the beaches of Dunkirk in 1940. As America's last days in Afghanistan came to a chaotic end, an ad-hoc group of veterans, intelligence assets and legislative aides undertook an extraordinary mission to leave no comrade behind. 
   
   
   
  Relying on cell phones and satellites as their weapons, they worked around the clock to help evacuate as many Afghans as possible. As the desperate mass of Afghans tried to flee brutal Taliban rule, Marines of the 2nd Battalion, 1st Marines, worked at Hamid Karzai International Airport's Abbey Gate in conditions that brought combat-hardened veterans to tears. After an ISIS suicide bomber detonated his S-vest, killing thirteen United States service members, operations came to a halt. 
   
   
   
  Life and Death at Abbey Gate tells the story behind the story of the mass evacuation of over 124,000 Americans and Afghan allies during a two-week period in the summer of 2021.

  What if words aren’t just signs—but symbols of truth? 
  Cratylus by Plato is an early and enduring exploration of language, etymology, and the connection between names and reality. This modern translation brings clarity and life to the dialogue between Socrates, Cratylus, and Hermogenes as they debate the origins and accuracy of words. Is language merely a social convention, or does it reflect the essence of things? 
  What you'll discover inside: 
  •	A Riveting Dialogue on Language and Truth – Socrates leads a spirited debate on the nature of names. 
  •	The Origins of Linguistic Philosophy – Engage with Plato’s pioneering ideas on semantics and reality. 
  •	A Modern, Accessible Translation – Readable and resonant for today’s listeners. 
  •	Philosophy That Still Speaks Today – Timeless questions about communication, meaning, and perception. 
  Cratylus challenges us to look beyond the words we use—and ask what they truly reveal.

  The Bible is a profound book on many levels. Spiritually it holds questions and answers for what it means to be human. Historically it reveals the lives of thousands of individuals and dozens of nations. 
   
  It is not a book written by one man or one god. It is a collection of thoughts, poems and histories collated together in one mega-volume. There are cyphers, codes and systems that hide secrets. There are metaphors that evade ordinary reasoning. In this film we are going to zone in one those codes and metaphors to unravel a massive hidden history. A sacred truth that has found itself locked away in the societies man created in later days such as the Freemasons. This ultimate secret stretches back in time for thousands of years and was included within the pages of the Bible. 
   
  This is the tale of a powerful and secret organization that has influenced mankind for millennia. This is the tale of how their existence brought about a number of mysteries that we will now unravel. This is the story of the Holy Secret Society.

  Plantation Politics and Campus...

  Plantation Politics and Campus Rebellions provides a multidisciplinary exploration of the contemporary university's entanglement with the history of slavery and settler colonialism in the United States. Inspired by more than a hundred student-led protests during the Movement for Black Lives, contributors examine how campus rebellions—and university responses to them—expose the racialized inequities at the core of higher education. 
   
   
   
  Plantation politics are embedded in the everyday workings of universities—in not only the physical structures and spaces of academic institutions, but in its recruitment and attainment strategies, hiring practices, curriculum, and notions of sociality, safety, and community. The book is comprised of three sections that highlight how white supremacy shapes campus communities and classrooms; how current diversity and inclusion initiatives perpetuate inequality; and how students, staff, and faculty practice resistance in the face of institutional and legislative repression. The volume is indispensable for students, faculty, student affairs professionals, and administrators invested in learning more about how power operates within education and imagining emancipatory futures.
