Synopsis

Grain Threshing Days explores how grain harvesting techniques profoundly shaped village life, revealing insights into social structures and community bonds. It examines the transition from manual methods, like using sickles, to mechanized harvesters, demonstrating how these shifts influenced labor relations and food security. The book argues that these techniques are not just agricultural practices but cultural ones that reflect and reinforce social, economic, and political dynamics within rural societies.

 
The book analyzes the social organization of harvesting, highlighting the roles of men and women and how cooperation fostered community identity. It also delves into the economic implications of different harvesting methods, detailing their impact on crop yields and wealth distribution. Drawing from agricultural manuals, census data, and oral histories, Grain Threshing Days adopts a narrative non-fiction approach to present a comprehensive account of grain harvesting's role in village life.

 
The book progresses by first introducing harvesting techniques, then exploring the social organization and economic implications, before finally investigating the influence of grain harvesting on social change. This progression provides a nuanced understanding of how agricultural practices have shaped rural communities and the broader social landscape.

    "The Law" is a classic work written by the French political economist and philosopher Frédéric Bastiat. Originally published in 1850, the book is a concise and powerful exploration of the concept of law and its proper role in society. Bastiat's main argument revolves around the idea that the purpose of law is to protect individual rights and property, rather than being an instrument for legal plunder or the redistribution of wealth. In "The Law," Bastiat discusses the fundamental principles of a just and free society, emphasizing the importance of limited government intervention and the protection of individual liberties. He criticizes various forms of legal plunder, such as tariffs, subsidies, and progressive taxation, which he views as violations of the natural rights of individuals. The book is known for its clarity of thought, persuasive reasoning, and its defense of the principles of classical liberalism.

    Sir Henry Morton Stanley is famously quoted for saying "Dr Livingstone, i Presume?". Born in Wales, he migrated over to the United States at the age of 18, he eventually became an overseas correspondent for the New York Herald. In 1869 Stanley was told by James Gordon Bennett Jr to find Livingstone, a scottish missionary and explorer. When Stanley commented on the cost Bennett's reply was:"Well, I will tell you what you will do. Draw a thousand pounds now; and when you have gone through that, draw another thousand, and when that is spent, draw another thousand, and when you have finished that, draw another thousand, and so on; but, FIND LIVINGSTONE."How I Found Livingstone is Stanley's personnel account of his trip from Zanzibar to Lake Tanganyika on this quest, including time spent exploring the area with Livingstone.

    Ableism in Education -...

    How we organize children by ability in schools is often rooted in ableism. 
     
     
     
    Ability is so central to schooling—where we explicitly and continuously shape, assess, measure, and report on students' abilities—that ability-based decisions often appear logical and natural. However, how schools respond to ability results in very real, lifelong social and economic consequences. Special education and academic streaming (or tracking) are two of the most prominent ability-based strategies public schools use to organize student learning. Both have had a long and complicated relationship with gender, race, and class. 
     
     
     
    In this down-to-earth guide, Dr. Gillian Parekh unpacks the realities of how ability and disability play out within schooling, including insights from students, teachers, and administrators about the barriers faced by students on the basis of ability. From the challenges with ability testing to gifted programs to the disability rights movement, Parekh shows how ableism is inextricably linked to other forms of bias. Her book is a powerful tool for educators committed to justice-seeking practices in schools.
