  Transportation planners, engineers, and policymakers in the United States face the monumental task of righting the wrongs of their predecessors while charting the course for the next generation. This task requires empathy while pushing against forces in the industry that are resistant to change. How do you change a system that was never designed to be equitable? How do you change a system that continues to divide communities? 
   
   
   
  In Inclusive Transportation, transportation expert Veronica O. Davis shines a light on the inequitable and often destructive practice of transportation planning and engineering. She calls for new thinking and more diverse leadership to create transportation networks that connect people to jobs, education, opportunities, and to each other. Inclusive Transportation is a vision for change and a new era of transportation planning. Davis explains why centering people in transportation decisions requires a great shift in how transportation planners and engineers are trained, how they communicate, the kind of data they collect, and how they work as professional teams. 
   
   
   
  Davis aims to disrupt the status quo of the transportation industry. She urges transportation professionals to reflect on past injustices and elevate current practice to do the hard work that results in more than an idea and a catchphrase.

  On the Duty of Civil Disobedience

  Henry David Thoreau

  What does it mean to stand alone against the tide of conformity? Henry David Thoreau's On the Duty of Civil Disobedience is a rallying cry for the individual conscience in a world that often demands silent compliance. Written in 1849, this powerful essay transcends its time, offering an enduring blueprint for resisting injustice through peaceful defiance.
  Thoreau's words are both a philosophical meditation and a practical guide. With piercing clarity and quiet rebellion, he challenges the reader to examine their relationship with authority, urging them to act according to principle rather than convenience. But this is no fiery manifesto—it is a calm, deliberate reflection on the moral duty of each person to refuse complicity in systems of oppression.
  This essay is not just for dreamers or idealists; it speaks to anyone who has ever questioned whether they have the courage to say "no." Thoreau's call resonates with movements for freedom and equality across the ages, from Gandhi to Martin Luther King Jr. It dares us to ask: Are we citizens of the state, or citizens of justice?

  Mother Media - Hot and Cool...

  From the nursery to the prison, from the clinic to the commune, Mother Media tells the story of how we arrived at our contemporary understanding of what a mother is and how understandings of "bad" mothering formed our contemporary panics about "bad" media. In this book, leading historian of psychology Hannah Zeavin examines twentieth-century pediatric, psychological, educational, industrial, and economic norms around mediated mothering and technologized parenting. The book charts the crisis of the family across the twentieth century and the many ingenious attempts to remediate nursemaid and mother via speculative technologies and screen media. 
   
   
   
  Growing out of her previous award-winning book The Distance Cure, which considered technologized care, the book lays bare the contradictions of techno-parenting and how it relates to conceptions of "maternal fitness," medical redlining, and surveillance of children, parents, and other caregivers. The author offers narratives of parenting in its extremity (for example, Shaken Baby Syndrome) and its ostensible banality (for example, the Nanny Cam) and how the two are often intertwined. Ultimately, Zeavin grapples with a simple contradiction: technology is seen and judged as harmful in domestic and educational spaces, even as it is a saving grace in the unending labor of raising a family.

  We all have memories of our favorite encounters. They exist like dark little red rooms lining the corners of the hallways of our minds. Some are revisited often, others we happen upon when it is least expected, interrupting your thoughts like little pangs in the middle of a conversation. It's easy to want to revisit those rooms again and again, and at the same time, there's this desire to keep them untouched and sacred. 
  These are brief, re-tellings of my favorite pang-inducing erotic memories. Some of them haven't happened yet, others are so etched into my psyche that they'll always be a part of this house. 
  Enjoy.
