  Started in the wake of George Zimmerman's 2013 acquittal in the death of Trayvon Martin, the #BlackLivesMatter movement has become a powerful and incendiary campaign demanding redress for the brutal and unjustified treatment of black bodies by law enforcement in the United States. The movement is only a few years old, but as Christopher J. Lebron argues in this book, the sentiment behind it is not; the plea and demand that "Black Lives Matter" comes out of a much older and richer tradition arguing for the equal dignity—and not just equal rights—of black people. 
   
   
   
  In this updated edition, The Making of Black Lives Matter presents a condensed and accessible intellectual history of the #BlackLivesMatter movement and expands on the movement's relevancy. This edition includes a new introduction that explores how the movement's core ideas have been challenged, re-affirmed, and re-imagined during the white nationalism of the Trump years, as well as a new chapter that examines the ideas and importance of Angela Davis and Amiri Baraka as significant participants in the Black Power Movement and Black Arts Movement, respectively. Drawing on the work of Davis, Baraka, and other revolutionary black public intellectuals, Lebron clarifies what it means to assert that "Black Lives Matter" when faced with contemporary instances of anti-black law enforcement.

  "The Causes of the Rebellion in Ireland Disclosed" is a pamphlet written anonymously that analyzes the causes and motivations behind the 1798 Irish Rebellion against British rule. 
  The pamphlet argues that the rebellion was not a spontaneous uprising, but rather the result of a combination of factors that had been building up over time. These factors included economic hardship, religious tensions, and a growing sense of Irish nationalism and desire for independence from British rule. 
  The pamphlet also examines the role of the United Irishmen, a political group that had been working towards Irish independence, and argues that their efforts were instrumental in organizing the rebellion. Additionally, the pamphlet discusses the role of British policies in exacerbating the tensions that led to the rebellion, including the Penal Laws and the suppression of Irish trade. 
  Overall, "The Causes of the Rebellion in Ireland Disclosed" provides a detailed analysis of the factors that led to the 1798 Irish Rebellion, shedding light on a significant event in Irish history and the ongoing struggle for independence from British rule.

  Welcome to a journey through history—cobwebs aren't the only relics hidden in the dusty corners of time. Our tale begins in the dingy underbelly of bygone eras where soot and grime paint the canvas of our story. We'll climb through the centuries with the nimble fingers and scuffed knees of child chimney sweeps, whose stories have been tucked away like a dirty secret amidst the grand tapestry of the past. It's a tale that'll pull at your heartstrings and tickle your funny bone, because, let's be honest, who can't help but chuckle at the thought of top-hatted gentlemen and pinafore-clad lasses, even as we dig into the less genteel side of history?
