  Then They Came for Mine -...

  Black Americans' resilience during centuries of racially-motivated violence is beyond remarkable. But continuing to endure this harm allows for generations of trauma to fester and grow. Healing has to be the priority going forward.  
   
  For decades, Tracey Michae'l Lewis-Giggetts clung to her upbringing in the church, believing that racial reconciliation would come through faith and discipline, being respectable, and doing what's right. But when her cousin became the victim of a white supremacist's hateful rampage, her body and soul said, "no more."  
   
  The trauma of America's racial history, wreaking havoc on not only Black and Brown folk but white people too, in its own way, will not be alleviated without the will to face it head-on. We must name the dehumanization that plagues us, practice truth-telling and self-care, and make space for our vulnerability—to do the hard work of healing ourselves and our communities.  
   
  This book is written with that healing in mind. It unpacks how American systems and institutions enable the kind of violence we've seen connected to white supremacy and nationalism. It examines the way media has created a desensitization to violence against Black bodies. It outlines what it looks like for a person who claims to follow Jesus to be anti-racist. But more than anything, it offers a blueprint for healing and reconciliation that includes the necessity of white people untangling from an ancestral mandate of colonization and false notions of supremacy, and Black and Brown people reckoning with the impact of trauma and feeling free to grieve in whatever way grief shows up.

  Goodbye Anxiety Hello Happiness...

  Almost one factor in our lives causes us pain or overwhelming emotions. One such factor 
  can be hard to determine and can be seen as inconceivable, among many others. These 
  emotions may be hard to identify, harder to grasp, and could lead to various unfavorable 
  events in our lives. Unless they are recognized for the problems they cause, and 
  appropriate care is offered as soon as they are conceived. 
  Anxiety, also termed by the common notion of concern, is one such thing in our lives that 
  affects us, daily or temporarily. It is that one factor that people need to be cautious of and 
  should make no fault in determining the cause of. The solutions that come forth after 
  conceiving the cause are also to be given crucial importance. 
  Some common questions that many people wonder: What is anxiety? What is the cure for 
  anxiety? Are there any symptoms to determine it? There are a lot of questions, but there 
  appear to be fewer solutions. Although these solutions can be determined over time and 
  implemented in our daily lives, doing so requires perseverance. The constant motivation 
  and drive are what makes it seem real in the end, but knowing the solutions that can aid 
  when implemented is one vital step towards happiness. 
  “Goodbye Anxiety, Hello Happiness” helps determine the different causes of anxiety in its 
  various forms, comparing it to other well-known notions and seeking out the differences. 
  It also aims at posing the necessary solutions to combat anxiety using the right practical 
  knowledge and methods.

  Russian Politics - A Very Short...

  Russia is rarely out of the news. Yet Russian politics can be difficult to understand. It is powerfully shaped by large, impersonal forces such as geography, and Russia's place in the international political and economic system. At the same time, Russia's formal political institutions, such as the Constitution and electoral procedures, are relatively weak and manipulable compared to those of stable, established democracies. Under these circumstances, powerful leaders represent a source of potential dynamism and change. 
   
   
   
  This Very Short Introduction provides a guide to understanding Russian Politics that goes beyond the headlines, offering a vivid account of the key forces driving Russian politics. It places Russia in a global context while explaining its internal political development. Several major themes run through the book, including the primacy of the state over society, the role of the so-called "West," which has represented a source of inspiration, of threat, and of competition for generations of Russians, and the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. The Soviet collapse brought about dramatic change across multiple spheres, from the nature of the political and economic system to the country's borders and who counted as a citizen. To this day, Russia is still working its way through the consequences of these transformations.
