Unmasked - COVID Community and...

Emily Mendenhall

Unmasked is the story of what happened in Okoboji, a small Iowan tourist town, when a collective turn from the coronavirus to the economy occurred in the COVID summer of 2020. State political failures, local negotiations among political and public health leaders, and community (dis)belief about the virus resulted in Okoboji being declared a hotspot just before the Independence Day weekend, when an influx of half a million people visit the town. 
 
 
 
The story is both personal and political. Author Emily Mendenhall, an anthropologist at Georgetown University, grew up in Okoboji, and her family still lives there. As the events unfolded, Mendenhall was in Okoboji, where she spoke formally with over 100 people and observed a community that rejected public health guidance, revealing deep-seated mistrust in outsiders and strong commitments to local thinking. Unmasked is a fascinating and heartbreaking account of where people put their trust, and how isolationist popular beliefs can be in America's small communities.

Pollinator Gardens - Supporting...

Gertrude Harris

Pollinators are among the most vital creatures on Earth, playing a crucial role in the health of ecosystems, food production, and biodiversity. Bees, butterflies, birds, and other pollinators help fertilize plants by transferring pollen, enabling plants to reproduce and produce fruit. Without these remarkable creatures, the world would face a drastic decline in the availability of many foods and flowers, not to mention the overall environmental balance. As pollinators continue to face mounting challenges from habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change, the need to support and protect them has never been more urgent.
Pollinator gardens provide a practical and rewarding solution to this pressing issue. By cultivating spaces specifically designed to attract and support bees, butterflies, birds, and other pollinators, gardeners can contribute to the conservation of these essential species. A well-designed pollinator garden doesn’t only benefit the creatures that visit it; it can also enrich the garden itself. These spaces foster a vibrant, diverse environment that promotes soil health, provides a haven for wildlife, and offers an aesthetically pleasing landscape that changes with the seasons.
This book is a guide to creating and maintaining pollinator gardens that provide much-needed resources for these important creatures. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced gardener, you’ll find practical tips on choosing the right plants, designing your garden, and understanding the specific needs of different pollinators. We will explore the different types of pollinators—bees, butterflies, birds, and other creatures—and provide insights into

Belonging in Healthcare - The...

Karen Catlin

It’s become increasingly clear that healthcare workplaces are filled with non-inclusive behavior. People who are underrepresented because of their gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation and identity, disabilities, and other factors regularly face biases and challenges that hold them back from success. These include everything from harassment, dismissive behavior, and lack of credit for their contributions, to pay inequity, extra hurdles to advancement, and more. And while many organizations are looking to address these issues with top-down initiatives, there's also an important role for individuals to play in creating a more inclusive culture via everyday acts of allyship. 
In this new book, inclusive workplace expert Karen Catlin brings her popular Better Allies® approach to healthcare workplaces. 
Belonging in Healthcare provides a practical, research-based guide for how to be a better ally for coworkers who are from underrepresented groups.
