    Ten years ago, Ilyse Kennedy was a disconnected twenty-something, sitting on a therapy couch, grappling with her own trauma. Now, as a trauma therapist, Kennedy shows up ready to attune to her treasured clients. Those who meet her might be surprised to know that this twenty-something still lives within her. She also has a people pleaser, who caters to the needs of others for self-protection. Then there is the therapist within her, who offers tools and solutions for her clients. The twenty-something, people pleaser, and therapist are all parts within her—they are adaptations she formed in response to traumas—who show up to aid her in interacting with the outside world. 
     
     
     
    In The Tender Parts, part memoir, part self-help, Kennedy leads you through the process of meeting, embracing, and tending to your own parts through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS), a form of therapy that explores the parts within us. With meditations, exercises, and an introduction to her own parts, she provides you with an opportunity to get to know the parts within yourself, offer them compassion, and relieve them of their burdens so you can heal your inner wounds and be more attuned to the Self. As you meet Kennedy's parts, your understanding and knowledge of your own parts will deepen, allowing you to reconnect with your center and approach the world with openhearted joy.

    A leading scholar-practitioner and ardent proponent of culturally responsive forms of education, Jeffrey M. R. Duncan-Andrade aims to settle the debates over whether we should work toward a public education system built on the goal of equality, in which identical resources are provided for all students, or equity, in which different resources are offered in response to differences in student interests and needs. Duncan-Andrade centers his argument on the importance of creating meaningful education experiences for all students, particularly for low-income students of color and immigrant students, who have gained relatively fewer benefits from decades of equality-focused education reform. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on research from across a range of disciplines, including neuroscience, social epidemiology, public health, and social work, Duncan-Andrade introduces three essential domains of a pedagogy that are both culturally and community responsive: relationships, relevance, and responsibility. He enlists the voices of practitioners to provide grounded examples of what community-responsive pedagogy looks like in each of these domains. These examples demonstrate how equitable classroom practices can enrich student engagement, enhance trauma responsiveness, and improve educational outcomes.

    "The French Revolution" by Thomas Carlyle is a classic historical work that chronicles the events leading up to and during the French Revolution. Written in 1837, Carlyle's account is known for its vivid and passionate style, and for its ability to bring to life the key figures and events of the revolution. 
    The book begins with an analysis of the state of France in the late 18th century, and the social and economic conditions that contributed to the revolution. It then goes on to provide a detailed account of the revolution itself, including the storming of the Bastille, the Reign of Terror, and the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. 
    Throughout the book, Carlyle emphasizes the role of individual actors and their personal struggles and motivations, rather than simply analyzing the structural forces at play. He also reflects on the broader philosophical and moral questions raised by the revolution, such as the nature of power, the relationship between the individual and the state, and the struggle for liberty. 
    Overall, "The French Revolution" is a powerful and engaging work of history that offers a unique perspective on one of the most significant events of modern times.
