  Transportation planners, engineers, and policymakers in the United States face the monumental task of righting the wrongs of their predecessors while charting the course for the next generation. This task requires empathy while pushing against forces in the industry that are resistant to change. How do you change a system that was never designed to be equitable? How do you change a system that continues to divide communities? 
   
   
   
  In Inclusive Transportation, transportation expert Veronica O. Davis shines a light on the inequitable and often destructive practice of transportation planning and engineering. She calls for new thinking and more diverse leadership to create transportation networks that connect people to jobs, education, opportunities, and to each other. Inclusive Transportation is a vision for change and a new era of transportation planning. Davis explains why centering people in transportation decisions requires a great shift in how transportation planners and engineers are trained, how they communicate, the kind of data they collect, and how they work as professional teams. 
   
   
   
  Davis aims to disrupt the status quo of the transportation industry. She urges transportation professionals to reflect on past injustices and elevate current practice to do the hard work that results in more than an idea and a catchphrase.

  A "hauntingly effective" surrealist travel memoir about the mysterious transformations that may lurk inside us all (Library Journal, starred review). 
   
   
   
  Venice, 2020. As a pandemic rages across the globe, Zito Madu finds himself in a nearly deserted city, its walls and basilicas humming with strange magic. As he wanders a haunted landscape, we see him twist further into his own past: his family's difficult immigration from Nigeria to Detroit, his troubled relationship with his father, the sporadic joys of daily life and solitude, his experiences with migration, poverty, foreignness, racism, and his own rage and regret. But as it is with all labyrinths, after finding its center, will he come away unscathed, or will he transform into the gripping, fantastical monstrousness that's out to consume him whole? 
   
   
   
  With nods to Italo Calvino and Jorge Luis Borges, this surrealist debut memoir takes us into the labyrinth of memory and the monsters lurking there.

  Maya Civilization - Pyramids...

  The Maya civilization emerged from the fertile lands of Mesoamerica, where early agricultural societies gradually developed into one of the most advanced cultures of the ancient world. Long before the rise of monumental cities and towering pyramids, the ancestors of the Maya lived in small villages, relying on farming, hunting, and fishing for sustenance. Corn, or maize, became the cornerstone of their diet and played a central role in their mythology, economy, and daily life. Over time, these early settlements expanded, evolving into complex societies with trade networks, religious practices, and political hierarchies. 
  The roots of Maya civilization can be traced back to the Preclassic period, around 2000 BCE. During this time, small communities scattered across present-day southern Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, and El Salvador began cultivating staple crops such as maize, beans, squash, and chili peppers. As agricultural techniques improved, populations grew, leading to the formation of larger settlements. Villages transitioned into regional centers, where early forms of leadership and governance emerged. These developments set the stage for the sophisticated city-states that would later define the Maya world. 
  The Maya were not isolated in their cultural development. They shared Mesoamerica with other influential civilizations, most notably the Olmecs, who thrived along the Gulf Coast of Mexico. The Olmecs, often considered the “mother culture” of Mesoamerica, left a lasting impact on the Maya through their artistic styles, religious beliefs, and ceremonial architecture. The colossal stone heads of the Olmecs, their early writing systems, and their concept of a sacred ballgame were all absorbed and adapted by the Maya. This exchange of ideas helped shape the foundations of Maya civilization, leading to the rise of the first great Maya cities.
