  Camel from Kyzylkum: A Memoir 
  What does it take to leave everything behind in search of freedom? 
  Born in Ukraine and later working in the Kyzylkum Desert of Uzbekistan, Lara Gelya spent the first half of her life behind the Iron Curtain. In 1989, at the age of thirty-nine, she fled the crumbling Soviet Union as a stateless refugee — carrying little more than hope. Her journey took her across Austria and Italy before she finally reached the United States, where she began the long and difficult process of rebuilding her life. 
  With honesty and vivid detail, Lara shares her experiences of growing up under Soviet rule, navigating cultural dislocation, and finding strength in the face of uncertainty. Camel from Kyzylkum is more than a memoir of immigration — it is a story of resilience, courage, and the universal search for freedom and belonging. 
  Perfect for listeners of historical memoirs, refugee stories, and anyone who values the enduring power of the human spirit.

  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.

  Black Women Ivory Tower -...

  Black women are heading to college in record numbers, and more and more Black women are teaching in higher education. But these statistics don’t guarantee our safety there.  
   
  Willpower and grit may improve achievement for Black people in school, but they don’t secure our belonging. In fact, the very structure of higher education ensures that we’re treated as guests, outsiders to the institutional family—outnumbered and unwelcome. 
   
  In this compelling exploration of what it means to be a Black woman pursuing higher education, Dr. Jasmine L. Harris moves beyond the “data points” to examine the day-to-day impacts of racism in education on Black women as individuals, the longer-term consequences to our personal and professional lives, and the generational costs to our entire families. 
   
  “I want to arm as many Black girls and women as I can with the knowledge about these spaces that I lacked,” says Dr. Harris. “By laying bare my own traumas, and those of Black women before me, I am providing them the tools to protect themselves, with an understanding of how deliberately many institutions will try to undercut them.” 
   
  Trial and error have been required of Black students to navigate systems of discrimination and disadvantage. But this book now offers useful support, illuminating the community of Black women dealing with similar issues. The author’s story is not unusual, nor are her interactions anomalies. Black Women, Ivory Tower explores why.

  The Story of Australia - From...

  For an estimated 60,000 years, Indigenous Australians inhabited the vast and diverse landscapes of the continent, developing rich cultures, complex social structures, and deep spiritual connections to the land. Long before European arrival, hundreds of distinct Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nations thrived across Australia, each with unique languages, traditions, and ways of life. Their existence was deeply rooted in an intimate understanding of the environment, shaping a sustainable way of living that allowed them to flourish in regions ranging from arid deserts to lush coastal plains. 
  Central to Indigenous Australian culture was the Dreamtime, a spiritual belief system that explained the creation of the land, its people, and its natural features. These stories, passed down through generations, connected individuals to their ancestors and dictated social laws, customs, and responsibilities. The land was not seen as something to be owned but rather as a living entity to be respected and cared for. This relationship fostered sophisticated land management practices, such as controlled burns to regenerate vegetation, ensuring the survival of both the people and the ecosystem. 
  Trade networks existed long before European contact, linking different Indigenous groups across the continent. These exchanges included tools, ochre, food, and ceremonial items, highlighting the complexity of Aboriginal societies. The northern coastal communities also engaged in trade with seafarers from Southeast Asia, particularly the Makassan fishermen from present-day Indonesia, who arrived seasonally to harvest sea cucumbers. This interaction, occurring centuries before European exploration, demonstrates the long-standing external connections Indigenous Australians maintained.
