  Nicole M. Joseph investigates factors that contribute to the glaring underrepresentation of Black female students in mathematics. Joseph's account calls attention to educational structures and practices that contribute to race- and gender-based stratification in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. 
   
   
   
  In her assessment of the intersectional difficulties facing this marginalized group, Joseph offers a critical view of the existing mathematics education research, practice, and policies that have neglected Black girls and women; confronts the problematic history of mathematics education policy; and considers imbalances in the current teacher workforce in United States mathematics programs. She then provides suggestions for reform. Joseph invites students, families, and educators, as well as researchers, policy makers, and other relevant stakeholders to disrupt systems, structures, and ideologies. She calls for an end to racism and sexism in many areas of mathematics education. 
   
   
   
  A must-listen for anyone concerned about supporting the mathematical learning and development of Black girls and women, this work advocates for coalition-building so that greater, more equitable opportunities for learning and engagement may be offered to Black female students.

  Peacefulness - Finding Serenity...

  Peacefulness is often viewed as a state of being calm and free from disturbance, but its true nature goes much deeper. It is not just the absence of noise, chaos, or stress; it is a profound inner state that arises from balance and harmony within oneself. To understand peacefulness, it is essential to recognize that it is not a passive experience. It requires conscious effort, self-awareness, and intentional practice. 
  At its core, peacefulness is a state of mind. It is about finding tranquility within oneself, irrespective of external circumstances. While external factors such as a quiet environment or a peaceful community may contribute to our sense of peace, the ultimate source of serenity lies within. True peacefulness is not fleeting or dependent on situations. It is a lasting quality that can remain even in the face of challenges. 
  A peaceful person is someone who has cultivated the ability to remain centered in the midst of life’s inevitable ups and downs. This kind of peace is not about escaping from the world or disengaging from responsibilities. Instead, it is about responding to life’s demands with grace, clarity, and composure. A person at peace is able to accept the present moment, without clinging to the past or fearing the future.

  Public Safety: A Necessity

  O. T. Osawaru

  A community without public safety will be like the land of Israel in those days when there was no king in Israel—everyone does what seems good to them. They kill at will, rape both men, women, and children at will, steal at will, and whatsoever seems good to them, just like the animal kingdom. 
  I, O. T. Osawaru, the author of this book, observed that our societies are gradually becoming lawless. The police and other public safety departments were defunded while empowering criminals and making them heroes. Hence the need to write this book. And to shift our focus on the consequence of these acts and bring back law and order in our societies to preserve lives and properties. 
  After listening to this book, I pray you will become an advocate for the need for public safety and the funding of every public safety body—furthermore, to encourage every public safety officer for their noble service in our societies.
