  "All thriller, no filler.”— Dr. Indigo Willing, sociologist and lead researcher of Skate, Create, Educate and Regenerate and co-author of Skateboarding, Power and Change
  		 
  A vibrant, meticulously researched celebration of the women and non-binary skateboarders who defied a hostile industry and redefined skateboarding around the world
  		 
  With enthusiasm and empathy, Girl Gangs, Zines, and Powerslides celebrates the relentless participation of women in skateboarding from the 1960s onward who defied a hostile industry to carve out their own space through underground networks. Skater librarian Natalie Porter presents interviews and meticulous research, including the DIY zines created by female and non-binary skaters as a means of communication, to expose this unacknowledged story while offering a personal narrative about the importance of community-building and validation, with or without your own video game.
  		 
  Girl Gangs, Zines, and Powerslides disrupts the image of skateboarding as an exclusive male domain, offering historical context for the seemingly rapid progress of female skaters today seen competing on the Olympic stage. Discover how the collective action of a grassroots movement in the 1980s established meaningful change, building a foundation that has led to greater inclusion and diversity, which has inspired women, girls, and non-binary youth worldwide to roll on a skateboard for the first time or rediscover their youthful obsession as an adult and feel inspired to drop once again.

  TO WALK THE WAY - One Pilgrim's...

  Mike Timms

  Mike Timms has always been a wanderer – into the bundu ('back of beyond') as a child in 1950s Kenya, around Dublin during his college years and along pilgrim paths in Wicklow and southern France as he approached the end of his working life. He has never felt lost or alone, holding a faith in moving forward, one step at a time and finding a peace – and sometimes reverence – in the quiet.
  So upon retirement, he embarked on his first Camino, setting out on foot just north of Carcassonne in France in the direction of Santiago de Compostela in north-west Spain. He walked as a true pilgrim, with the scallop shell hanging around his neck, his pilgrim passport in his pocket and no guarantee of a bed in the albergues along the Way. Falling in and out of step with fellow walkers, he learned to trust them and to see the unexpected – injury, fatigue, detour and the generosity of strangers – as blessings in disguise.
  With immediate and assured writing, Mike Timms takes us on a mindful journey as he moves through this ancient landscape, attuned to the histories, traditions and beliefs that have gone before him. To Walk the Way is his gently transporting account of taking part in them in his own unique way.
