  The practices and values in the United States educational system position linguistically, culturally, and socioeconomically diverse children and families at a disadvantage. BIPOC dropout rates and levels of stress and anxiety have linked with non-inclusive school environments. In this collection, three educators draw on their experiences as immigrants and educators to address racial inequity in the classroom and provide a thorough analysis of different strategies that create an inclusive classroom. White educators that serve BIPOC students will benefit from these reflections on incorporating culturally relevant pedagogies that value the diverse experiences of students. 
   
   
   
  With a focus on Haitian and Dominican students in the United States, the authors reveal the challenges that immigrant and first-generation students face. They also offer insights about topics such as: 
   
   
   
  ● How do language policies and social justice intersect? 
   
   
   
  ● How can educators use culturally relevant teaching and community funds of knowledge to enrich curriculum? 
   
   
   
  ● How can educators center the needs of the student within the classroom? 
   
   
   
  ● How can educators support Haitian Creole-speaking students?

  Communism in Practice - Case...

  Communism, as an ideology and political movement, seeks to create a classless society where the means of production are owned collectively. Rooted in the works of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, communism advocates for the abolition of private property and aims to establish a system where wealth is distributed according to need, not individual ownership. This chapter explores the foundational principles of communism, its historical development, and its responses to capitalism and social inequality. 
  At the heart of communism lies the idea of economic equality. Marx and Engels argued that capitalism inherently exploits workers, who sell their labor for wages while capitalists profit from the value produced. The solution, according to communism, is the overthrow of capitalist systems and the establishment of a proletarian (working class) dictatorship. This revolutionary phase would transition into a classless society in which private property is abolished, and wealth is shared among all members of society. 
  The key principles of communism emphasize collective ownership, state control of resources, and the idea of class struggle. In Marxist theory, history is understood through the lens of class conflict, where different social classes—such as the bourgeoisie (capitalists) and the proletariat (workers)—are in perpetual opposition. The ultimate goal is to establish a society free of these class distinctions, where everyone has access to the same resources and opportunities.

  Carolingian Empire - The...

  The Carolingian Empire, which existed from 800 to 888, was a dominant force in western and central Europe during the early Middle Ages. Founded by the Carolingian dynasty, this empire emerged from the Frankish kingdom, which had been ruled by this lineage since 751 and included control over the Lombards in Italy starting in 774. The empire's significance was amplified when Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne, the Frankish king, as emperor in Rome on Christmas Day in 800, marking a pivotal moment in the attempt to reestablish a western counterpart to the Roman Empire. This event not only solidified Charlemagne's power but also laid the groundwork for what would eventually become the Holy Roman Empire. 
  At its zenith, the Carolingian Empire stretched across a vast expanse, covering approximately 1,112,000 square kilometers (429,000 square miles) and supporting a population estimated between 10 to 20 million people. Charlemagne's reign was characterized by military conquests, administrative reforms, and cultural revival, known as the Carolingian Renaissance, which fostered the preservation and promotion of learning and the arts. 
  However, the empire faced challenges after the death of Emperor Louis the Pious in 840. A civil war erupted among his heirs, leading to the Treaty of Verdun in 843, which partitioned the empire into three distinct kingdoms. Although one monarch was still recognized as emperor, his authority was significantly limited, confining his power mainly to his own realm. This division undermined the unity that Charlemagne had worked hard to establish.

  Digitization is transforming our world economically, culturally, and psychologically. The influx of new forms of communication, networking, and business opportunities, as well as new types of distraction, self-observation, and control into our societies represents an epochal challenge. Following Bernard Stiegler's concept of pharmacology, Felix Heidenreich and Florian Weber-Stein propose to view these new forms as digital pharmaka. Properly dosed, they can enable new self-relationships and forms of sociality; in the case of overdose, however, there is a risk of intoxication.
  In this essay, Felix Heidenreich, Florian Weber-Stein, and, in a detailed interview, Bernard Stiegler analyze this complex change in our world and develop new skills to use digital pharmaka.
