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.

Without Her - A Chronicle of...

Rebecca Spiegel

“What is comfort but a filament between past and present with some sort of future implied? In other words, safety. In other words, care. I know it is possible to find these things without her—I know they are there. But it can be so hard to ask. So much is unknown.”  Rebecca Spiegel is working as a teacher in New Orleans when she learns of her sister’s suicide. Only after the funeral does shock give way to grief—and to many questions. How could Emily do this to herself? How could she have abandoned all those who loved her? And what could have been done differently to prevent this devastating loss?  In the days and weeks that follow, Spiegel embarks on a search for answers. She unpacks family history, documents the last traces of her sister’s life, and questions what more she could have done to prevent her death. What she finds instead is that there is no narrative on the other side of grief like this. There is no answer, no easy resolution—only those that leave and those that keep living. Unflinchingly honest, visceral, and raw, this courageous elegy lays bare the hard realities of surviving the loss of a loved one.
