  "The Ugandan Tales" is set in Uganda and about the struggles of ordinary Africans against post independence African rulers that preach freedom and emancipation but have turned into oppressors.  This collection of poetry dives deep into topics of police brutality, social injustices, and oppression through the landscape of the tortured cities. Ordinary people seek to reassert their rights against an intransigent regime that is determined to keep them oppressed. The poems chronicle everyday struggles that are faced at the hands of fellow Africans masquerading as Pan Africanists. Through peaceful and non violent means, a new generation of people is now taking a stand against social, political and economic segregation.

  How to Be a Sister - A Love...

  Eileen Garvin’s older sister, Margaret, was diagnosed with severe autism at age three. Growing up alongside Margaret wasn’t easy: Eileen often found herself in situations that were simultaneously awkward, hilarious, and heartbreaking. For example, losing a blue plastic hairbrush could leave Margaret inconsolable for hours, and a quiet Sunday Mass might provoke an outburst of laughter, swearing, or dancing. How to Be a Sister begins when Eileen, after several years in New Mexico, has just moved back to the Pacific Northwest, where she grew up. Being 1,600 miles away allowed Eileen to avoid the question that has dogged her since birth: What is she going to do about Margaret? Now, Eileen must grapple with this question once again as she tentatively tries to reconnect with Margaret. How can she have a relationship with someone who can’t drive, send an email, or use a telephone? What role will Eileen play in Margaret’s life as their parents age, and after they die? Will she remain in Margaret’s life, or will she walk away? A deeply felt, impeccably written memoir, How to Be a Sister will speak to siblings, parents, friends, and teachers of people with autism—and to anyone who sometimes struggles to connect with someone difficult or different.

  Power. Money. Blood. Influence. 
  What began as smuggling routes through the desert has evolved into one of the most powerful underground empires on Earth — a parallel nation built on fear, loyalty, and staggering wealth. 
  In Cartel Nation, readers are taken deep inside the hidden machinery of Mexico’s drug cartels — a world where criminal networks rival governments, warlords command armies, and pop culture glorifies the very violence that terrorizes entire regions. Through gripping storytelling and meticulous investigation, this book unveils how cartels moved from the shadows into the center of politics, business, and everyday life. 
  Discover: 
  •	How Mexico’s cartels grew from small-time traffickers into transnational corporations of crime. 
  •	The secret alliances between drug lords, politicians, police, and billionaires. 
  •	How narco culture — from music and film to religion and fashion — turned the cartels into global icons. 
  •	The brutal wars fought for territory, power, and legitimacy — and why they can’t simply be “won.” 
  From the dusty streets of Sinaloa to the halls of power in Mexico City, Cartel Nation traces a chilling and fascinating rise — a story of corruption, resilience, and the dark side of globalization. 
  Suppose you’re fascinated by true crime, geopolitics, or the human cost of power. In that case, this book will leave you stunned—and unable to look away. 
  Perfect for fans of Don Winslow, Ioan Grillo, and Netflix’s Narcos, Cartel Nation reveals the truth behind the myth — and why the cartel era is far from over.
