  As a young girl, Desange Kuenihira was told repeatedly that she was meaningless. An arranged marriage and motherhood before twenty—guaranteeing a life in poverty—were all she was told to expect. But Desange knew she had more inside her, and that education was the key to unlocking her potential. 
  In Undefeated Woman, Desange Kuenihira takes us on the challenging journey of her childhood. She recalls fleeing with her siblings from the civil war raging in Congo and the daily struggle of life in a refugee camp in Uganda, where she suffered many forms of abuse. She relates her journey to America, the culture clash of living with American foster families, and her quest for her education and the ability to control her own life. Now a college graduate and determined to pay forward the kindness of those that helped her through, Desange has launched the nonprofit UnDEfeated to empower women and girls in Uganda. 
  Desange’s inspirational story shows us all how we can overcome any odds through education, determined perseverance, and the kindness of caring people.

  ""Alice in Blunderland: An Iridescent Dream" is a novel by John Kendrick Bangs, first published in 1907 by Doubleday, Page & Co. of New York. Illustrated by Albert Levering, this work serves as a political parody of Lewis Carroll's famous Alice books: "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" (1865) and "Through the Looking-Glass" (1871).    In this whimsical tale, Alice finds herself in "Blunderland", also humorously referred to as "Municipal Ownership Country". Here, she encounters familiar characters from Wonderland, including the dormouse, the Mad Hatter, and the Cheshire Cat. However, instead of whimsical adventures, Alice grapples with issues critical of collectivism, taxation, corporate greed, and corruption.    The novel playfully transports readers to a satirical realm where absurdity meets political commentary. "
