  Ancient Explorers of Eastern...

  Where did the first colonizers of North America from Europe, North Africa and the British Isles first land? 
  The greatest mixed cluster is in New England and spreading out from it. And how did these ancient travellers journey across the face of North America? Generally in the same way that they got there. In watercraft! To the ancients the seas, lakes and rivers were the superhighways as crossing land until the later Romans developed road systems was in many cases near impossible if not exceptionally difficult. This is how all great exploration has always been done until recently. You sail across a sea and then up the first river you find to see where it will go and this scenario never changes. You only go overland when there are no rivers or lakes as it is much harder to consign goods or travel over unexplored territory than by water. 
  Another great superhighway to trade was from the Gulf of Mexico and up its tributaries and in some cases via now long lost rivers to the Great Lakes themselves. In fact you did not even need long lost rivers. Present day ones would do just as well. The Des Moines River which connects up with the Mississippi River runs within five miles west of Lake Michigan within the present city limits of Chicago. Not too far to move a boat across land from the Great Lakes to the Des Moines River. Even less distance in the thousand year pluvial periods when water levels were higher and there was more rain. There were wider rivers and more lakes to travel across.

  Economic Landscape of Puerto...

  Puerto Rico’s economic landscape has been shaped by centuries of historical, political, and social transformations. From the indigenous societies that first inhabited the island to its complex relationship with Spain and the United States, the economy has evolved in response to shifting global and regional forces. Understanding Puerto Rico’s economic foundations requires an examination of its early economic structures, the colonial period’s trade policies, and the profound effects of U.S. annexation. These key moments set the stage for the challenges and opportunities that have defined the island’s development.  
  Before European colonization, the indigenous Taíno people sustained themselves through subsistence agriculture, fishing, and trade with neighboring Caribbean islands. Their economy, though not based on large-scale commerce, was well-adapted to the island’s resources. With the arrival of the Spanish in 1493, Puerto Rico was integrated into Spain’s mercantilist system, marking the beginning of an economic transformation that would prioritize colonial extraction over local prosperity. The Spanish introduced new crops such as sugarcane and coffee, which would later become vital to the island’s economy. However, strict trade regulations limited Puerto Rico’s ability to develop independently, as it was required to conduct commerce exclusively with Spain.  
  During the 18th and 19th centuries, Puerto Rico transitioned into a plantation-based economy, with sugar and coffee emerging as dominant industries. Enslaved Africans and later immigrant laborers contributed to the agricultural boom, making the island a key supplier to European and American markets. Despite periods of growth, the economy remained vulnerable to global price fluctuations, natural disasters, and restrictive colonial policies. By the time of the Spanish-American War in 1898, Puerto Rico’s economy was still largely agrarian, with limited industrial development.

  Black Gods of the Asphalt -...

  J-Rod moves like a small tank on the court, his face mean, staring down his opponents. "I play just like my father," he says. "Before my father died, he was a problem on the court. I'm a problem." Playing basketball for him fuses past and present, conjuring his father's memory into a force that opponents can feel in each bone-snapping drive to the basket.On the street, every ballplayer has a story. Onaje X. O. Woodbine, a former streetball player who became an all-star Ivy Leaguer, brings the sights and sounds, hopes and dreams of street basketball to life. He shows that big games have a trickster figure and a master of black talk whose commentary interprets the game for audiences. The beats of hip-hop and reggae make up the soundtrack, and the ballplayers are half-men, half-heroes, defying the ghetto's limitations with their flights to the basket.Basketball is popular among young black American men but not because, as many claim, they are "pushed by poverty" or "pulled" by white institutions to play it. Black men choose to participate in basketball because of the transcendent experience of the game. Through interviews with and observations of urban basketball players, Onaje X. O. Woodbine composes a rare portrait of a passionate, committed, and resilient group of athletes who use the court to mine what urban life cannot corrupt. If people turn to religion to reimagine their place in the world, then black streetball players are indeed the hierophants of the asphalt.
