Sinopse

"Mound Builder Societies" explores the fascinating history of the diverse indigenous cultures across North America who constructed monumental earthen mounds. These impressive earthworks, remnants of pre-Columbian history, served various purposes, from burial sites and defensive structures to ceremonial platforms. Understanding the social structures and cultural practices behind their construction is crucial for appreciating the sophistication of these societies.

 
The book reveals that mound building was deeply intertwined with cosmological beliefs, social hierarchies, and political strategies, challenging simplistic interpretations and highlighting the intricate relationship between culture, environment, and social organization.

 
The book progresses chronologically, starting with the Archaic period and its early mound construction, then moves to the Woodland period, examining the Adena and Hopewell cultures and their elaborate mortuary rituals. Finally, it explores the Mississippian period, with its large urban centers like Cahokia, emphasizing the connection between mound building, agriculture, and social stratification.

 
By incorporating archaeological excavations, ethnohistorical accounts, and recent geophysical surveys, this book provides new insights into the internal structures and spatial organization of mound sites, offering a unique perspective on these ancient indigenous cultures and their lasting legacy.

    Obedience training for a bully… 
    Wade Johnson is the golden boy jock at our school, the star quarterback-- and a total jerk. He started calling me a “queer” back in ninth grade, and he and his football goons have been hassling me every day since. 
    But now I’ve got something to keep Wade in line-- a video that could destroy his social life and end his football playing days for good. 
    You’d think Wade would keep that in mind, and try to stay on my good side. Play nice. Keep the other jocks from messing with me. But Wade’s not that smart. 
    At school, he’s still the same homophobic bully he’s always been. So after school, he has to make it up to me.

    Mass protests and direct action have been familiar tactics against the many crises of the 21st century. Though methods vary, there's a collective longing for meaningful and transformative action. Some are deemed too weak, others too disruptive: from Instagram tiles to cans of soup thrown on famous paintings.
    Through conversations with activists and organisers, Sam Gonçalves recounts stories of protest and the fight for change, from a community of landless workers in Southern Brazil, to chefs unionising their workplace in Glasgow, Scotland. These narratives reveal the opportunities and challenges that are part of the difficult work of creating change, a wrestling with the question: how does change happen?
    Having a 'positive impact' in the world is often relegated to the 'personal', an individual endeavour. Gonçalves investigates that assumption and explores ways communities have resisted collectively, and fought against the individualising forces surrounding them.

    In Los Angeles's most underserved communities, Lori Weise is known as the Dog Lady, the woman who's spent decades caring for people in poverty and the animals that love them. Long before anyone else, Weise grasped that animal and human suffering are inextricably connected and created a new rescue narrative, an enduring safety net empowering pet owners and providing resources to reduce the number of pets coming into shelters. 
     
     
     
    Rethinking Rescue: Dog Lady and the Story of America's Forgotten People and Pets unites the causes of animal welfare and social justice, moving between Weise's story and that of the US rescue movement: from the dog's twentieth-century transition from property to family to the rise of the no kill campaign to stop shelter euthanasia and the contradictions that hampered those efforts. Through captivating storytelling and investigative reporting, Carol Mithers examines the consequences of bias within this overwhelmingly white movement, where an overemphasis on placing animals in affluent homes often disregards pet owners in poverty. Weise's innovative and ultimately triumphant efforts revealed a better way. 
     
     
     
    Rethinking Rescue boldly confronts two of the biggest challenges of our time—poverty and homelessness—in asking the very humane question, Who deserves the love of a pet?
