  Black girls are leading, organizing, advocating, and creating. They are starting nonprofits. Building political coalitions. Promoting diverse literature. Fighting cancer. Improving water quality. Working to prevent gun violence. 
   
   
   
  Are we ready to learn from their leadership? 
   
   
   
  "Black women are literally at the helm of every movement," says Tyah-Amoy Roberts, an activist and a survivor of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting. "Every push for social justice. Every push for social change. We need to take our stories into our own hands." In Unbossed, they do. 
   
   
   
  From Khristi Lauren Adams comes Unbossed, a hopeful and riveting inquiry into the lives of eight young Black women who are agitating for change and imagining a better world. Offering practical lessons in leadership, resilience, empathy, and tenacity from a group of young leaders of color who are often neglected, Unbossed includes profiles of Jaychele Nicole Schenck, Ssanyu Lukoma, Tyah-Amoy Roberts, Grace Callwood, Hannah Lucas, Amara Ifeji, Stephanie Younger, and Kynnedy Smith. 
   
   
   
  These are the young Black women we will be reading about decades from now. Their stories may often be overlooked. But Black girls are leading the way.

  The Gospel of Peace You will...

  A BOOK DEDICATED TO HOPE Humanity is at a crossroads between self-destruction and change. Are you negative and pessimistic? Do you feel uneasy about the future? Are you unhappy because of your daily problems, not to mention wars, crises and pollution? I will give you many reasons to become positive, peaceful and able to achieve peace beyond imagination! I will take you on a fantastic journey into your own mind, to go beyond it. In fact, the ordinary mind thinks it can change things, but it cannot. That is why we never solve our own problems and those of the planet. But how do we go beyond the mind to generate real change? Meditation is the main tool to change ourselves and the world around us. We can stop wars, we can stop crime, there is no limit to what we can do. The Maharishi effect, which has been scientifically studied many times, shows that with the power of our intention and meditation, we can actually do something in terrible situations, such as armed conflicts, violence, and crime. And if it works for the most extreme cases, this means that even in less tragic situations, such as our daily lives, we have a much greater margin of intervention in events close to us than we are used to believing. A limited number of street lamps are needed to illuminate the streets of an entire city, just as 1% of the population of a city, of a nation, or of the entire planet, who are able to reach a state of deep meditation, are enough to bring light and remove the darkness from consciousness. A small group of awakened people are enough to irradiate and enlighten all other people, who will unconsciously change their way of thinking and acting. Does all this sound like science fiction, too good to be true? Whether you believe you can or believe you can`t, you are still right. Since the Universe is subjective, our way of believing the world, our beliefs, becomes our reality. What we are and what we think spreads and reflects throughout the Universe.

  Virtues of Strength is a powerful and inspiring journey through the core traits that help us rise above adversity and keep going when life gets tough. This 3-in-1 volume focuses on three foundational virtues—Courage, Endurance, and Perseverance—each offering a lens through which to understand our inner power and resilience. 
  In the first section, Courage, readers explore the bravery required to face fears, confront injustice, and make difficult choices even in the face of uncertainty. It's not the absence of fear, but the willingness to act in spite of it that defines this virtue. 
  The second section, Endurance, dives into the strength to keep going under pressure—mentally, emotionally, and physically. Whether it's enduring pain, loss, or hardship, this virtue reminds us that we are capable of weathering life’s storms without giving up. 
  The final section, Perseverance, highlights the determination to pursue goals with consistent effort and hope, even when progress is slow or setbacks occur. It celebrates the long-haul spirit that turns dreams into achievements, and obstacles into stepping stones. 
  Rich with timeless wisdom and real-world examples, Virtues of Strength equips readers with the mindset and emotional fortitude to face life’s challenges head-on. This book is for anyone seeking to deepen their character, build resilience, and walk through difficulty with purpose and dignity.

  内容简介：
  本书从句法与形态接口视角主要探讨现代汉语中三个与"得"相关的结构，即带"得"的可能补语句、结果补语句和状态补语句，并对这三类结构做出一个较为统一的考察。研究发现，带"得"的可能补语句、结果补语句及状态补语句受制于很多共同的限制，如该类结构中的动词都不能受方式状语修饰，该类结构都不能使用肯定的命令式等。本研究不仅可以找出某些带"得"的状态补语句与某些带"得"的可能补语句（或结果补语句）之间存在歧义的根源，还可以揭示与"得"相关的这几类句型之间的内部联系及其背后隐藏的普遍语法规律。
  作者简介：
  汪昌松，北京理工大学外国语学院副教授，研究领域和方向为理论语言学、句法—形态/韵律/语义研究。发表论文多篇，主持完成多项基金课题研究项目。
