  Before the Streetlights Come On...

  Climate change. Two words that are quickly becoming the clarion call to action in the twenty-first century. It is a voter issue, an economy driver, and a defining dynamic for the foreseeable future. Yet, in Black communities, climate change is seen as less urgent when compared to other pressing issues, including police brutality, gun violence, job security, food insecurity, and the blatant racism faced daily around the country. 
   
   
   
  However, with Black Americans disproportionately impacted by the effects of climate change—making up 13 percent of the US population but breathing 40 percent dirtier air and being twice as likely to be hospitalized or die from climate-related health problems than white counterparts—climate change is a central issue of racial justice and affects every aspect of life for Black communities. 
   
   
   
  In Before the Streetlights Come On, climate activist Heather McTeer Toney insists that those most affected by climate change are best suited to lead the movement for climate justice. McTeer Toney brings her background in politics, community advocacy, and leadership in environmental justice to this revolutionary exploration of why and how Black Americans are uniquely qualified to lead national and global conversations around systems of racial disparity and solutions to the climate crisis.

  Angelica - For Love and Country...

  Few women of the American Revolution have come through 250 years of US history with such clarity and color as Angelica Schuyler Church. She was Alexander Hamilton's "saucy" sister-in-law, and the heart of Thomas Jefferson's "charming coterie" of artists and salonnières in Paris. Her transatlantic network of important friends spanned the political spectrum of her time and place, and her astute eye and brilliant letters kept them well informed. 
   
   
   
  A woman of great influence in a time of influential women (Catherine the Great and Marie-Antoinette were contemporaries), Angelica was at the red-hot center of American history at its birth: in Boston, when General Burgoyne surrendered to the revolutionaries; in Newport, receiving French troops under the command of her soon-to-be dear friend Marquis de Lafayette; in Yorktown, just after the decisive battle; in Paris and London, helping to determine the standing of the new nation on the world stage. 
   
   
   
  In this enthralling and revealing woman's-eye view of a revolutionary era, Molly Beer breathes vibrant new life into a period usually dominated by masculine themes and often dulled by familiarity. In telling Angelica's story, she illuminates how American women have always plied influence and networks for political ends, including the making of a new nation.

  "The kingdom of heaven is like electricity. You don't see it. It is within you."
  
  Veda Vyasa, Valmiki, Patanjali, and Ramana had one thing in common. Other than the fact that they were learned men from India, the other thing that bound them all was the word 'Maharishi'. Maharishi, a title bestowed upon by some of the greatest sages from ancient India, was also given to one more learned but more contemporary of Indian sages. It was a tiny little man who took the west by storm and impressed them enough to have influenced and inspired many, one group being none other than the great English band of the 60s—The Beatles. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, not only gained fame as a guru of many celebrities and well-known personalities, he single-handedly made such a deep impact with the west that if yoga and meditation have been trending there for some time, one can easily say that it all started with this one man.

  The Myth of Normal - Key Insights

  Jack Rylan

  This work provides a concise synthesis of the key insights and analysis of the book. It is an independent summary, not the original book, and has no affiliation with or endorsement from the original publication. Created for readers who want a clear, thought-provoking overview, it distills the central themes and ideas while preserving the depth and relevance of the work. 
  The Myth of Normal examines the hidden costs of modern life, challenging the assumption that what society calls “normal” is actually healthy. It reveals how trauma, disconnection, and emotional suppression are not isolated problems but widespread patterns produced by culture itself. Drawing on science, psychology, and lived stories, the book demonstrates how stress, illness, and addiction are not merely personal failings but symptoms of a deeper social dysfunction. At its core, it argues that healing requires more than treating symptoms: it demands a return to authenticity, compassion, and connection—both within ourselves and in the systems we inhabit. By redefining health as alignment with truth rather than compliance with cultural norms, the book opens a path toward greater wholeness for individuals and communities alike.
