  America Made Me a Black Man - A...

  NAACP Image Award Nominee · NPR Best Book of 2022 
  A searing memoir of American racism from a Somalian-American who survived hardships in his birth country only to experience firsthand the dehumanization of Blacks in his adopted land, the United States. 
  “No one told me about America.”  
   Born in Somalia and raised in a valley among nomads, Boyah Farah grew up with a code of male bravado that helped him survive deprivation, disease, and civil war. Arriving in America, he believed that the code that had saved him would help him succeed in this new country. But instead of safety and freedom, Boyah found systemic racism, police brutality, and intense prejudice in all areas of life, including the workplace. He learned firsthand not only what it meant to be an African in America, but what it means to be African American. The code of masculinity that shaped generations of men in his family could not prepare Farah for the painful realities of life in the United States.  
  Lyrical yet unsparing, America Made Me a Black Man is the first book-length examination of American racism from an African outsider’s perspective. With a singular poetic voice brimming with imagery, Boyah challenges us to face difficult truths about the destructive forces that threaten Black lives and attempts to heal a fracture in Black men’s identity.

  Does the GOP represent "forgotten" Americans? Or does it represent the superrich? 
   
   
   
  In Let Them Eat Tweets, bestselling political scientists Jacob S. Hacker and Paul Pierson offer a definitive answer: the Republican Party serves its plutocratic masters to a degree without precedent in modern global history. Conservative parties, by their nature, almost always side with the rich. But when faced with popular resistance, they usually make concessions, allowing some policies that benefit the working and middle classes. After all, how can a political party maintain power in a democracy if it serves only the interests of a narrow and wealthy slice of society? 
   
   
   
  Today's Republicans have shown the way, doubling down on a truly radical, elite-benefiting economic agenda while at the same time making increasingly incendiary racial and cultural appeals to their almost entirely white base. Telling a forty-year story, Hacker and Pierson demonstrate that since the early 1980s, when inequality started spiking, extreme tax cutting, union busting, and deregulation have gone hand in hand with extreme race-baiting, outrage stoking, and disinformation. As Hacker and Pierson argue, Trump isn't a break with the GOP's recent past. On the contrary, he embodies its tightening embrace of plutocracy and right-wing extremism.

  Polynesian Mythology - Legends...

  Polynesian mythology is a vast and intricate tapestry of stories, gods, and legendary heroes that have shaped the cultures of the Pacific Islands for centuries. Spanning across a region known as the Polynesian Triangle—bounded by Hawaii, New Zealand (Aotearoa), and Easter Island (Rapa Nui)—these myths have been passed down through generations via oral tradition. Each island group has its own variations, yet many of the themes, characters, and cosmic beliefs remain deeply connected, reflecting a shared ancestry and worldview.  
    
  At the heart of Polynesian mythology is a deep reverence for nature and the forces that shape the world. The ocean, sky, and land are not merely elements of the physical environment but sacred entities, often personified by gods and spirits. The vast Pacific, for example, is not only a means of travel but also a living force, ruled by deities like Tangaroa, the god of the sea. The sun, moon, stars, and winds play crucial roles in these legends, guiding great navigators and influencing the balance of life.  
    
  Oral tradition is the foundation of Polynesian storytelling. Before the arrival of writing, myths and legends were preserved through chants, songs, and performances. Storytellers, often elders or priests, ensured that each retelling remained faithful to tradition while also adapting to the audience and setting. This fluidity allowed myths to evolve while maintaining their core meanings. Through these stories, people learned about their ancestry, moral values, and the origins of their world.
