  Invisible No More - Voices from...

  For too long, Native American people in the United States have been stereotyped as vestiges of the past, invisible citizens in their own land obliged to remind others, "We are still here!" Yet today, Native leaders are at the center of social change, challenging philanthropic organizations that have historically excluded Native people, and fighting for economic and environmental justice. 
   
   
   
  Invisible No More is a collection of stories by Native American leaders, many of them women, who are leading the way through cultural grounding and nation-building in the areas of community, environmental justice, and economic justice. Authors in the collection come from over a dozen Native nations. While telling their stories, authors excavate the history and ongoing effects of genocide and colonialism. At the same time, the authors detail ways that listeners might imagine the world differently, presenting stories of Native community building that offer benefits for all. 
   
   
   
  In a world facing a mounting climate crisis and record economic inequality, Invisible No More exposes the deep wounds of a racist past while offering a powerful call to care for one another and the planet. Indigenous communities have much to offer, not the least of which are solutions gleaned from cultural knowledge developed over generations.

  The Farmer’s Code takes you on a hero’s journey of self-development. It follows a path of transformation and growth to help you become your true, highest self. This journey will lead to a greater understanding of the self and a deeper connection to one’s own values and core principles, which paves the way for a long-lasting legacy.  Legacies provide a roadmap for future generations, showing those who follow your footsteps what is possible as they strive to reach their full potential. Filled with personal stories of the struggles and triumphs of one American farming family, the Code shows how legacies are about more than just personal fulfillment. They can have a profound impact on the lives of others by serving as a guiding light to those who are seeking a better way to live. Just as airline passengers are instructed to see to their own oxygen masks first in the event of an emergency before helping others, legacy building has to start with the self. When you are safe, secure, and strong, you are in a much better position to turn outward to help others. It is then that you can help address societal challenges, advance knowledge and innovation, promote social change, or support the important causes you see in your community.  The Farmer’s Code should spark aspirations, ignite passion, and encourage everyone to strive for greatness. By considering the lasting impact you can make, you will be able to live more purposefully and leave a more positive imprint on the world.

  Welcome to the world of project management in the age of AI. The revolution is here, and it's time to embrace it. As project managers, we are living in a world of constant change and disruption, and AI technology is transforming the way we work. We need to adapt, evolve, and embrace the opportunities that AI technology presents.    The potential of AI technology in project management is immense. It can help us to automate repetitive tasks, streamline processes, and deliver insights that were previously inaccessible. By leveraging AI technology, project managers can unlock new growth opportunities, increase profitability, and stay ahead of the competition.    However, the rise of AI technology also presents challenges for project managers. As project managers, we need to learn how to manage complex AI projects, collaborate with AI teams, and interpret AI-generated insights. We need to develop new skills, embrace new technologies, and adopt a growth mindset to succeed in the age of AI.    The challenge of managing AI projects requires project managers to learn new skills and approaches. For example, project managers need to understand how to manage projects with AI-driven analytics, such as machine learning algorithms, and how to integrate these insights into their project plans. Additionally, project managers need to be able to manage the complexity of AI projects, which often involve large amounts of data and multiple stakeholders.    To overcome these challenges, project managers need to adopt a growth mindset and embrace new technologies. This means being willing to learn new skills, experiment with new tools, and collaborate with AI teams. Project managers also need to be able to interpret AI-generated insights and incorporate them into their project plans effectively.    In this book, we explore the challenges facing project managers in the AI revolution and the specific needs project managers have to succeed in the age of AI. We provide strategies, tools, and resources for project managers to leverage AI technology to create value-based propositions and intellectual property.    We also share case studies and examples of successful AI projects, as well as stories of project managers overcoming challenges in the AI revolution. These examples illustrate the impact of AI technology on project management and provide lessons learned to help project managers understand how to apply these strategies and insights to their own projects.    Our goal is to help project managers unlock the full potential of AI technology and take their projects and organizations to the next level. We encourage the reader to reflect on their own skills and recognize the growth potential that AI technology presents. We want to inspire and motivate project managers to embrace the challenges and opportunities of the AI revolution.    So, are you ready to step into the unknown and embrace the growth potential of your company through AI-driven project management? Let's begin this journey together and unlock the power of AI technology.

  The tireless resistance of local communities fighting for ownership of America's third largest water system 
   
   
    
  Toxic Water, Toxic System exposes the consequences of a seemingly anonymous authoritarian state willing to maintain white supremacy at any cost—including poisoning an entire city and shutting off water to thousands of people. Weaving together narratives of frontline activists along with archival data, Michael Mascarenhas provides a powerful exploration of the political alliances and bureaucratic mechanisms that uphold inequality. 
   
   
    
  Drawing from three years of ethnographic fieldwork in Flint and Detroit, this book amplifies the voices of marginalized communities, particularly African American women, whose perspectives and labor have been consistently overlooked. Toxic Water, Toxic System offers a fresh perspective on the ties between urban austerity policies, environmental harm, and the advancement of white supremacist agendas in predominantly Black and brown cities.
