Synopsis

Mongol Legacy explores the enduring impact of the Mongol Empire on world history, challenging conventional narratives of mere conquest. It argues that the empire's influence extended far beyond destruction, deeply shaping trade, governance, and military practices across Eurasia. The book highlights the Pax Mongolica, a period of unprecedented integration that fostered the exchange of goods, ideas, and technologies. One intriguing insight is how the Mongols standardized weights and measures, facilitating commerce along the Silk Road. Another is their innovative adaptation of existing administrative systems, blending nomadic traditions with sophisticated bureaucratic practices. The book delves into the evolution of legal systems influenced by the Mongol's Yassa code and the revolution in military tactics spurred by their warfare, such as their use of composite bows and cavalry tactics. By drawing on primary sources and recent scholarship, the book offers a nuanced assessment of the empire's complex legacy. It progresses through chapters that examine trade networks, governance, and military innovations, providing a comprehensive understanding of the Mongol Empire's profound impact on state formation, economic development, and military technology.

    Black women have always been the driving force behind real change in this country—especially when it comes to racial justice work. But they shouldn't have to do it alone. If you're ready to stop standing on the sidelines and become anti-racist instead of passively "not racist," then this book is what you need. You'll discover: how to have difficult conversations about white supremacy, racism, and white privilege; how to listen to criticism without defensiveness; why it's harmful to ignore race or claim to be colorblind; and how to expand your racial justice circle by joining groups led by Black women and cultivating a group of like-minded allies. 
     
     
      
    Racism can only be defeated if white people educate themselves and actively engage in antiracism work, especially in their inner circles. With this book, you'll learn how to change from someone who defends and protects racism to someone who fights against it. And you'll become an example to others that true allies are made, not born.

    In How We See Us, Michaela Leslie-Rule amplifies the voices of young people approaching adulthood as they consider their experiences, needs, and goals for their education, early careers, and lives. Leslie-Rule encourages adults who support young people to listen more closely to youth voices so that their perspectives are centered in interventions made on their behalf. 
     
     
     
    Based on in-depth interviews, surveys, and focus groups of nearly 4,000 students from Black and Hispanic communities and low-income households in both urban and rural regions across the United States, the book finds thoughtful self-reflection and an optimistic mindset in the stories of the youths' successes and challenges. The rich accounts of how they experience their identities, communities, education, and employment refute dominant narratives that so often frame their abilities in terms of deficits and that suggest that young people, and students of color especially, live in a perpetual state of crisis. 
     
     
     
    Leslie-Rule advocates for listening more deeply to young people and provides a framework to improve practice. Such consideration, she argues, enables educators, policymakers, and researchers to better address the barriers students experience in building and navigating pathways to education, career, and adulthood.
