Beschreibung

"Autographs for Freedom" is a compelling anthology that compiles a series of powerful letters and writings advocating for emancipation and civil rights, originating from the mid-19th century. This collection is not merely a historical document; it is a rich tapestry of voices that reflects the abolitionist movement's fervor and the socio-political climate of the time. Through the eloquent prose and passionate appeals of its contributors, the book exemplifies a literary style that balances persuasive rhetoric with personal narrative, illustrating the deep moral convictions that ignited a nationwide call for freedom and justice. The authorial collective behind this work consists of prominent abolitionists, noted speakers, and ordinary individuals drawn together by a shared mission to eradicate slavery. Influenced by the moral imperatives of their time, and often shaped by personal experiences with oppression and disenfranchisement, these writers articulate their hopes and fears with unyielding conviction. Their collective effort encapsulates the spirit of an era characterized by radical socio-political change, offering insight into the diverse strategies employed in the struggle for freedom. I highly recommend "Autographs for Freedom" to scholars and general readers alike, as it not only serves as an essential resource for understanding the abolitionist movement but also resonates today as a timeless reminder of the ongoing fight for human rights. This book invites readers to engage with history in a way that is both educational and deeply moving, encouraging reflection on current social justice challenges.

    "At risk." "Low." "Title I kids." If you've worked with students, you've probably heard or said these coded labels that reflect deficit thinking.

    In Hacking Deficit Thinking, you'll learn how to: build on student strengths; think about student empathy; humanize your data; recognize the value of differences; think about teacher empathy; talk about equity in schools; tap into school-wide strengths; flourish as an educator.

    Empire of Rags and Bones - Waste...

    Paper, kitchen garbage, rubber, hair, fat, rags, and bones—the Nazi empire demanded its population collect anything that could be reused. Citizens conjured up schemes to squeeze value from waste or invent new purposes for defunct or spent material, no matter the cost to people or the environment. As WWII dragged on, rescued loot—much of it waste—clogged transport routes and piled up in warehouses across Europe. 
     
     
     
    Historicizing the much-championed ideal of zero waste, Anne Berg shows that the management of waste was central to the politics of war and to the genesis of genocide in the Nazi Germany. Destruction and recycling were part of an overarching strategy to redress raw material shortages, procure lebensraum, and cleanse the continent of Jews and others considered undesirable. Resource extending schemes obscured the crucial political role played by virtually all German citizens to whom salvaging, scrapping, and recycling were promoted as inherently virtuous and orderly behaviors. Throughout Nazi occupied-Europe, Jews, POWs, concentration camp inmates, and enemy civilians were forced to recycle the loot, discards, and debris of the Nazi race war. In the end, the materials that were fully exploited and the people who had been bled dry were cast aside, buried, burned, or left to rot. Nonetheless, waste reclamation did not have the power to win the war.

    How could the Jews comprise less than 1 percent of the world’s population yet make up 22 percent of Nobel laureates?  
    Despite passing through innumerable challenges, the Jews have produced stunningly gifted people in the sciences, humanities, and economics. Through the millennia and around the world, Jewish history is an astounding story of survival against all odds, yet a touching narrative of faith, covenant, and tradition. 
    This concise yet sweeping history of the Jewish people introduces Judaism, the Torah, and Biblical history, followed by an engaging journey of the Jews through the Greek, Roman, and Muslim empires. It travels through waves of persecution, beginning with the Crusades and coming to a violent head under the Nazi regime.

It unpacks the riveting and sometimes tragic stories of Jews who left their mark on history and a people who continue to play an illustrious role on the world stage. 
    Here's a glimpse of some of the questions this overview covers:What spectacular events are celebrated at Pesach (Passover)?How did the Jews escape the Babylonian exile?Who sacrificed a pig to the god Saturn in Jerusalem’s Second Temple?How did Muslim rule mostly improve life for Jews in Spain and North Africa?What underlying philosophies led to the Nazis’ attempt to annihilate the Jewish race?

    Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, better known as Emperor Claudius, ruled the Roman Empire from 41 to 54 AD. Born in Lugdunum (modern-day Lyon, France), in 10 BC, Claudius was the son of Drusus and Antonia Minor, both prominent figures in the Roman elite. His birthplace marked a significant departure from previous emperors, as he was the first Roman Emperor born outside Italy. Though Claudius’ family was rooted in the ancient Sabine people, his upbringing would not follow the traditional path of an elite Roman, largely due to his physical infirmities. He suffered from a limp and mild deafness, conditions that led his family to deem him unfit for public life and dismiss him from military and political endeavors. 
    Growing up in the shadows of more capable and ambitious relatives, Claudius was largely ignored by the Roman aristocracy. His health issues, though perhaps a result of childhood illness, kept him out of sight and out of mind during the brutal purges of Tiberius and Caligula. This absence from political life proved advantageous, as it spared him the many assassination attempts that claimed the lives of his more prominent family members. In a twist of fate, following the assassination of Caligula in 41 AD, the Praetorian Guard, upon finding him hiding in fear, declared Claudius the new emperor. As the only remaining adult male in his family, Claudius ascended to the throne, despite his perceived weakness. 
    Despite initial doubts about his ability to rule, Claudius quickly proved to be a capable and intelligent administrator. He worked tirelessly to stabilize the Roman Empire, which had suffered under the excesses of Caligula’s reign. One of his first actions was to restore the empire’s finances, expanding the imperial bureaucracy to include freedmen, and re-establishing order in the imperial administration.
