  Battling Over Birth: Black Women and the Maternal Health Care Crisis reveals hard truths—powerful findings on the role of racism, coercion, inadequate prenatal care, the pressures undermining breastfeeding, and the lack of access to alternatives to a broken maternal health-care system as key threads of black women's birth experiences. 
   
   
   
  Battling Over Birth, a new human rights report from Black Women Birthing Justice, shares stories from over 100 women who recently gave birth in California. The report reveals the culture of fear and coercion that has transformed birth into a battleground, a deep lack of trust of our hospitals, and a broken maternal healthcare system that fails too many black women. The report shakes up our understanding of where state violence happens, and who it happens to; putting the human rights spotlight onto a system that is often unaccountable to black communities. Battling Over Birth also provides solutions. It makes a series of recommendations, including community accountability boards to hold hospitals accountable; increased access to midwifery and doula-care; recruitment and training of more health-care professionals of color; culturally-competent, empowering prenatal and postpartum care; greater access to home birth and birth centers; and a sharp reduction in the use of C-sections.

  Facing America's Greatest Enemy

  "Facing America's Greatest Enemy" by Rich Germaine delves into the pervasive issue of apathy within American society, exploring its historical roots, psychological underpinnings, and extensive impact on various facets of life. The book opens with a compelling introduction that frames apathy and indifference as a silent yet formidable adversary threatening the foundations of democracy and societal progress. Germaine traces the emergence of apathy from post-revolutionary disinterest to contemporary political indifference, emphasizing how crises and prosperity alike have fostered disengagement. 
  Germaine provides historical examples, such as the rise of Nazi Germany and the low voter participation in recent U.S. elections, to underscore the dire consequences of public disengagement. 
  In the digital age, the paradox of connectivity is examined, where social media's potential to mobilize is countered by the overwhelming influx of information, leading to 'slacktivism'—a superficial form of engagement. The manuscript also addresses the role of education in combating apathy, advocating for curricula that foster critical thinking, empathy, and active citizenship. 
  Parental apathy is explored as a significant factor in children's moral and educational development, highlighting the need for active parental involvement despite modern challenges. The author also incorporates a biblical worldview, urging Christians to act against apathy through faith-driven engagement and community building. 
  Concluding with actionable steps, calling for a collective commitment to rekindle civic engagement and counter the inertia threatening American self-government. This comprehensive exploration offers a roadmap for individuals and communities to overcome apathy and foster a more involved, empathic, and active society.

  Living the Technology Revolution...

  This isn't a book filled with dry timelines or technical blueprints of the digital revolution. Instead, it's a firsthand journey—my journey—through one of the most astonishing transformations in human history: the rise of personal computing and the dawn of the digital age. 
  I was born in November 1955, at a time when the word “computer” was barely whispered outside of military labs and universities. My earliest memories include a bulky black-and-white television with rabbit-ear antennas, broadcasting a single channel. That flickering screen was my first encounter with electronic media—a far cry from the high-definition, touch-responsive world we live in now. 
  Over the decades, my path as an engineer and software developer placed me squarely in the midst of this technological upheaval. I didn’t just watch the future arrive—I helped build it, one line of code and one innovation at a time. 
  This book is a personal time capsule—a chronicle of what it was really like to live through the shift from analog to digital, from typewriters to tablets, from rotary phones to the infinite power in our pockets today. If you're a younger reader curious about how we got here, or someone who remembers the glow of vacuum tubes and the clack of punch cards, I invite you to walk with me through the decades. 
  You may be surprised by how far we’ve come—and how much we’ve forgotten along the way. 
  Many of the chapters are identified with the years or periods of time where these changes occurred.
