Sinossi

Reproductive Rights explores the multifaceted history of reproductive control in the United States, tracing its evolution from the early 20th century to today. The book examines how struggles over bodily autonomy have shaped law, medicine, and political power. It highlights intriguing historical events, such as the eugenics movement's impact on reproductive policies and the landmark Roe v. Wade decision, which initially established a woman's right to an abortion but has since faced numerous challenges. This book uniquely connects the fight for reproductive rights to broader battles for social justice and gender equality, emphasizing the fundamental right to privacy.

 
It begins by defining key concepts like reproductive freedom and legal precedents before delving into the fight for contraception access, including the pivotal Griswold v. Connecticut case. The book methodically progresses through the rise of the anti-abortion movement and the current state of reproductive rights, examining the influence of the Supreme Court and state-level legislation.

 
Drawing on legal documents, historical archives, and public health data, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of the ongoing debates surrounding abortion, contraception, and healthcare access. It offers a balanced perspective, acknowledging the complex and diverse viewpoints that inform this critical issue, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of reproductive rights in the United States.

    Embark on a profound journey through the struggles and revelations of one of Christianity's most influential figures with Confessions by Augustine of Hippo. This masterful autobiography transcends the mere recounting of Augustine's early life of sin and his pivotal conversion to Christianity, offering readers a timeless meditation on the human condition, the power of faith, and the quest for understanding and truth.  
    Confessions stands as a cornerstone in Western literature and theological thought, profoundly impacting not just Christian theology but also philosophy and the broader human search for meaning. Written with unparalleled eloquence, Augustine's introspective exploration of his own life serves as a mirror reflecting universal truths about the trials and transformations that define the human experience.  
    Through his candid narrative, Augustine embarks on a philosophical inquiry into memory, time, and the nature of God, making Confessions not just a tale of personal redemption but also a compelling discourse on the essence of existence itself. This book invites readers into a deep contemplation of their own spiritual journey, encouraging a reflective exploration of faith, the complexities of the human psyche, and the pursuit of inner peace. 
    Discover why luminaries across centuries have drawn inspiration from Augustine's insights. Confessions promises not just a story of conversion but a profound engagement with the mysteries of life—a literary and spiritual odyssey that continues to resonate with readers seeking wisdom and solace in their own lives.

    “With calm and compassionate power, Yasmine is helping us to find our way back home—back to our own selves.” —Layla Saad, New York Times bestselling author of Me & White Supremacy 
    “Yasmine’s work is monumental, and I am in much better holistic alignment because of her dedicated and helpful offerings to the world.”—Alex Elle, author of After the Rain 
    A radical approach to setting boundaries and protecting your energy, rich with tools for self-healing. 
    Imagine a glass jar filled with sugar on a kitchen counter. You are the jar, and the sugar is your energy. If the jar has no lid, people can come in and take as much sugar as they want. Sometimes, they spill that sugar all over. You may try to refill your jar—replenish your energy—through self-care, but because there is no a lid—no protective boundary—you cannot control how much of your vital life force is being drained. 
    The Sugar Jar metaphor is a powerful teaching tool that wellness advocate and coach Yasmine Cheyenne has successfully used with her clients. Now, in her debut book, she makes it available to everyone. Combining stories, exercises, and prompts, The Sugar Jar lets you see just how much energy you have and how much is being used by others. It helps you identify what depletes you, what restores you, and how to recognize destructive patterns. It empowers you to free yourself from performing for and serving others, teaching you to set boundaries to help you heal and recharge. The Sugar Jar frees you from the excess stress and exhaustion that wears you down. It allows you to unleash your authentic self, choose joy, and find lasting balance. 
    A compassionate teacher, Cheyenne offers a unique and much needed perspective. A former member of the Air Force working with victims of domestic violence, she has specifically designed her approach and questions about boundaries, self-care, and self-healing for readers of all backgrounds, and especially readers of color, whose stressors and life challenges have too often been excluded and overlooked. Cheyenne herself has felt unwelcome as a Black woman in predominantly white wellness groups and retreats. Her inclusive message speaks to the needs of BIPOC readers, and accepts them where they are. 
    Warm and honest, The Sugar Jar shows you how to make small adjustments that can lead to big changes in your life.

    Becoming a Marihuana User

    Marijuana has come a long way since its seedy days in the back parking lots of our culture. So has Howard S. Becker, the eminent sociologist, jazz musician, expert on “deviant” culture, and founding NORML board member. When he published Becoming a Marihuana User more than sixty years ago, hardly anyone paid attention—because few people smoked pot. Decades later, and it’s clear—marijuana isn’t just an established commodity, it’s an entire culture. And that’s just the thing—Becker totally called it: pot has everything to do with culture. It’s not a blight on culture, but a culture itself—in fact, you’ll see in this book the first use of the term “users,” rather than “abusers” or “addicts.” Come along on this short little study—now a famous timestamp in weed studies—and you will be astonished at how relevant it is to us today. 
     
    Becker doesn’t judge, but neither does he holler for legalization. Instead, he looks at marijuana with a clear sociological lens—as a substance that some people enjoy, and that some others have decided none of us should. From there he asks: so how do people decide to get high, and what kind of experience do they have as a result of being part of the marijuana world? What he discovers will bother some: chemistry isn’t everything—the important thing about pot is how we interact with it. We learn to be high. We learn to like it. And from there, we teach others, passing the pipe in a circle that begins to resemble a bona fide community.
