  Narcissa Whitman: The Life and...

  At the start of the 1840s, the Oregon Country had no political boundaries or effective government. The only administrative organization in the territory was the Hudson’s Bay Company, which applied only to British subjects, and aside from natives, the region was populated by a handful of independent traders, hunters, and prospectors, as well as those employed in the various company depots. 
  The first to begin showing up in large numbers were missionaries. The native populations were by then diminished by disease and dispirited, which meant they were more receptive to missionary aid and the Christian message. Christianity, of course, was not entirely unknown among the indigenous populations, given that marriages between white men and Indian women created a hybrid of “folk” Christianity that was commonly observed among the Indians. The first wave of missionaries represented the American Methodists, arriving in or around 1834, followed a year or two later by a second series of arrivals, sponsored this time by the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM). The ABCFM was an ecumenical organization founded to promote the general outreach of the Presbyterian and Dutch Reform churches in the United States. Roman Catholics arrived around 1830, bringing missionaries mostly from Canada and Europe.  
  Ultimately, the Whitman Mission became an important staging post on the Oregon Trail, but the fortunes of the Whitman Mission became something of an object lesson in race relations in the new territory, ultimately with very tragic results.

  Black Women Will Save the World...

  In this long-overdue celebration of Black women’s resilience and unheralded strength, the revered, trailblazing White House correspondent reflects on “The Year That Changed Everything”—2020—and African-American women’s unprecedented role in upholding democracy. 
  “I am keenly aware that everyone and everything has a story,” April D. Ryan acknowledges. “Also, I have always marveled at Black women and how we work to move mountains and are never really thanked or recognized.” In Black Women Will Save the World, she melds these two truths, creating an inspiring and heart-tugging portrait of one of the momentous years in America, 2020—when America elected its first Black woman Vice President—and celebrates the tenacity, power, and impact of Black women across America. 
  From the beginning of the nation to today, Black women have transformed their pain into progress and have been at the frontlines of the nation’s political, social, and economic struggles. These “Sheroes” as Ryan calls them, include current political leaders such as Maxine Waters, Valerie Jarrett, and Kamala Harris; Brittany Packnett Cunningham, LaTosha Brown, and other activists; and artists like Regina King. Combining profiles and in-depth interviews with these influential movers and shakers and many more, Ryan explores the challenges Black women endure, and how the lessons they’ve learned can help us shape our own stories. Ryan also chronicles her personal journey from working-class Baltimore to the elite echelons of journalism and speaks out about the hurdles she faced in becoming one of the most well-connected members of the Washington press corps—while raising two daughters as a single mother in the aftermath of a messy divorce. 
  It is time for everyone to acknowledge Black women’s unrivaled contributions to America. Yet our democracy remains in peril, and their work is far from done. Black Women Will Save the World presents a vital kaleidoscopic look at women of different ages and from diverse backgrounds who devote their lives to making the world a better place—even if that means stepping out of their “place.”

  Over the last few years, I have spent considerable time deepening my spiritual quotient. It all started in 2013 when I took up Vipassana meditation and started practicing seriously, and later developed an interest in reciting certain mantras. 
  ​​I have titled it "UnSexy Spirituality". The reason for this title is pretty straightforward, I am sharing insights into the core concepts of Sanatana Dharma (Indian Spirituality) without any hype. The intent is to share the insights I have gained from my journey thus far. 
  You will find many books on the shelf that mix mysticism with Indian spirituality, my attempt is to present Indian spiritual concepts as is without mysticism and hence the play of the word Unsexy. 
  The Audiobook is thoughtfully designed for people to “Listen”; and “Contemplate”. The process of repeat listening and then contemplating the concepts mentioned in the audiobook is the key to fully digesting these concepts. It allows seekers to find clarity as well as uplift themselves to higher awareness levels. 
  I have compiled this wisdom into 14 chapters that simplify the core concepts which have kept me as well as other Indians and many westerners confused. 
  #1 Neeyati, The Play Of Destiny 
  #2 What is Karma & Suffering  
  #3 Is There an After-Life 
  #4 Adding Positive Karma Points in Life 
  #5 Atheists, Believers, and Seekers 
  #6 Being Spiritual and The Path 
  #7 Burning Karma with Meditation 
  #8 Ego Barometer 
  #9 Is This A Dream World 
  #10 Why Religion 
  #11 Understanding Our Relationship With The Nature 
  #12 Trust, Truth, and Belief World 
  #13 How Women Can Reach Her Highest Spiritual Truth 
  #14 Saturn's Energies
