  "So what are you? Go back where you belong!" 
   
   
   
  Majority white American culture has historically marginalized people of color, who at times feel invisible and alienated and at other times are traumatized by oppression and public discrimination. This reality leads to a particular kind of aloneness: ethnic and racial loneliness. 
   
   
   
  An Indian American immigrant who grew up in white Southern culture, Prasanta Verma names and sheds light on the realities of ethnic loneliness. She unpacks the exhausting effects of cultural isolation, the dynamics of marginalization, and the weight of being other. In the midst of disconnection and erasure, she points to the longing to belong, the need to share our stories, and the hope of finding safe friendships and community. Our places of exile can become places where we find belonging—to ourselves, to others, and to God.

  Written with warmth, expertise, and humility, Mike Tinoco invites us into his classroom, drawing on stories from his own life and powerful examples from civil rights movement leaders to explore questions such as: 
   
   
   
  ● How do we create classrooms and schools that are grounded in needs and match our vision for the kind of world we dream of? 
   
   
   
  ● How can we challenge conventional classroom management practices, welcome conflict, and nurture relationships with and amongst our students to foster positive peace? 
   
   
   
  ● How can we embed love in our curriculum and be inclusive of our students' lives, centering community, healing, and justice? 
   
   
   
  ● How can we slow down and take care of ourselves without compromising the urgency to fight for justice?

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  From the first days of Emancipation to the modern Black entrepreneur, Black American Wealth takes readers on a powerful journey through the financial history of Black America. This deeply researched and emotionally charged book exposes the forgotten truth: Black Americans have always strived for economic independence—and often succeeded—despite facing systemic oppression, racial violence, and intentional barriers at every turn. In this compelling narrative, author Oliver E. Robinson traces the roots of Black wealth from land ownership and early Black millionaires to the rise—and destruction—of thriving Black communities like Tulsa’s Greenwood District, Rosewood, and Wilmington. The book explores the forces that interrupted generational wealth, including redlining, government sabotage, mass incarceration, and economic exclusion. But this is not just a history of struggle—it’s a blueprint for empowerment. Black American Wealth also highlights the modern resurgence of Black wealth-builders, financial educators, and investors who are reclaiming economic power through stocks, entrepreneurship, group economics, and smart planning. More than a book—it’s a call to action, a reminder of legacy, and a roadmap for the future.

  Muisca Confederation - The Land...

  The Muisca Confederation was one of the most sophisticated political entities in pre-Columbian South America, emerging in the highlands of present-day Colombia. The origins of this powerful society can be traced back to the earliest inhabitants of the Eastern Cordillera of the Andes, a region characterized by fertile valleys, cool mountain climates, and abundant natural resources. Over time, these early settlers developed complex social structures, agricultural techniques, and political institutions that would form the foundation of the Muisca Confederation.  
  The first groups to settle in the high-altitude plateaus of the Andean region arrived thousands of years ago, likely migrating from Central America or other parts of South America. These early inhabitants lived in small, semi-nomadic communities, relying on hunting, fishing, and rudimentary farming. As they adapted to their environment, they developed advanced agricultural methods, cultivating maize, potatoes, quinoa, and other crops suited to the high-altitude terrain. The fertile lands and steady supply of food allowed for population growth, leading to the establishment of permanent settlements. 
  As Muisca society evolved, it became increasingly hierarchical, with distinct roles emerging among its members. The transition from small, scattered villages to organized chiefdoms marked a significant turning point in their history. Power began to concentrate in the hands of local leaders, or caciques, who governed their respective communities. Over time, these leaders expanded their influence, forming alliances and asserting control over larger territories. The most powerful of these rulers eventually became the Zipa of Bacatá and the Zaque of Hunza, the two principal leaders who governed the northern and southern regions of the Muisca Confederation.
