Sinopsis

Civil Unrest explores the history of uprisings and protests in America, arguing that these events, though disruptive, have been crucial in driving social change and addressing systemic injustices. The book examines how instances of social upheaval force a reckoning with inequality, ultimately shaping a more inclusive nation. For example, the Civil Rights Movement, marked by both nonviolent protests and violent confrontations, led to desegregation and the dismantling of Jim Crow laws. Similarly, labor movements and industrial unrest, like the Haymarket Affair, highlighted issues of labor rights and working conditions during the industrial era. The book takes a chronological approach, starting with early rebellions and moving through labor movements, the Civil Rights Era, anti-war protests, and contemporary movements like Black Lives Matter. Each event is analyzed considering the perspectives of protesters, government officials, law enforcement, and affected communities. By dissecting these historical events, Civil Unrest reveals patterns of progress and regression, offering vital lessons for addressing current social and political challenges.

  • You Are Not a Kinesthetic Learner - The Troubled History of the Learning Style Idea - cover

    You Are Not a Kinesthetic...

    A compelling history of the learning style concept and how it was shaped by shifting ideas in psychology, anthropology, and education. The widely embraced notion that we all process information in one of three distinct modes—visual, auditory, or kinesthetic—has informed educational practices for decades. In recent years, however, numerous studies have questioned the effectiveness of aligning instruction with the alleged learning styles of individual students. So, why is it still commonplace in the literature on beneficial teaching at all levels of education?In You Are Not a Kinesthetic Learner: The Troubled History of a Dangerous Idea, historian Thomas Fallace traces the origins, evolution, and history of the learning style idea, demonstrating its relationship to a legacy of unequal education for children of color. Fallace argues that the research supporting the learning style idea was problematic from its inception in the 1910s and that it was used to label and justify a diminished curriculum for many Black and Latine students, whose cultural differences were perceived as weaknesses. In recent years, numerous empirical studies have not found the approach to be effective. This fascinating history clearly shows the danger of sorting and labeling students with permanent style identities and makes a strong case for removing learning styles as the basis for any educators’ instructional toolkit.The first book-length history of learning styles, You Are Not a Kinesthetic Learner encourages us all to consider the research, be open to future developments and updates, and question even our most intuitive assumptions.

    This collection brings together three powerful narratives from diverse cultures, each telling stories of cleverness, bravery, and the battle between good and evil. 
    The first story takes you through the myths of The Trickster Gods, devious and mischievous deities who use wit and cunning to challenge the status quo. Often playing pranks on gods and humans alike, these figures represent chaos and creativity, teaching important lessons about the consequences of trickery and the unpredictable nature of life. From the Norse Loki to the African Anansi, these tricksters serve as both villains and saviors, weaving their own kind of order out of disorder. 
    Next, venture into The Heroes of Myth, timeless figures whose valor and determination have inspired generations. These legendary warriors—like Hercules, Achilles, and Perseus—embody the ideals of courage, honor, and the willingness to face great challenges for the greater good. Their stories, filled with monsters, gods, and impossible feats, have shaped the way we view heroism and sacrifice across cultures and time periods. 
    Finally, explore Native American Legends, a rich tapestry of stories passed down through generations of indigenous peoples. These legends highlight the deep connection between humans, nature, and the spiritual world. From powerful tricksters like Coyote to brave heroes who protect their communities, these myths are filled with wisdom, moral lessons, and reflections on the balance between the material and spiritual realms. 
    Tricksters and Heroes invites readers to embrace the complexity of human nature through the lens of mythology, where mischief, valor, and everything in between reveal truths about the world we live in.

    Over the course of its history, England has engaged in an uncountable number of battles, but a select few have been celebrated like the Battle of Trafalgar, one of the most important naval battles in history. Before the battle, Napoleon still harbored dreams of sailing an invasion force across the English Channel and subduing England, but that would be dashed on October 21, 1805 by a British fleet that was outnumbered and outgunned.  
    	Napoleon's Russian adventure gutted his veteran army, depriving him of the majority of his finest and most loyal soldiers. Those who remained formed the hard core of his new armies, but the Russian fiasco damaged their health and embittered their previously unquestioning loyalty. Napoleon raised vast new armies, but circumstances compelled him to fill the ranks with raw recruits, whose fighting skills did not equal their undoubted bravery and whose dedication to the Napoleonic cause was shaky, and in many cases due solely to coercion. The tough, experienced, faithful veteran found himself outnumbered by unwilling, sketchily trained amateurs. 
    These factors set the stage for the second setback, which essentially sealed the fate of Napoleon's empire. The four-day Battle of Leipzig in October 1813, romantically but accurately dubbed the "Battle of the Nations," proved the decisive encounter of the War of the Sixth Coalition and essentially determined the course the Napoleonic Wars took from that moment forward.  
    	Waterloo is the most famous battle in modern history if not all of history, and appropriately so. Gathering an army of 100,000 men, Napoleon marched into what is now Belgium, intent on driving his force between the advancing British army under the Duke of Wellington and the Prussian forces under Marshal Blucher. It was the kind of daring strategy that only Napoleon could pull off, as he had at places like Jena and Austerlitz.
