In Border Citizens, historian Eric V. Meeks explores how the racial classification and identities of the diverse indigenous, mestizo, and Euro-American residents of Arizona’s borderlands evolved as the region was politically and economically incorporated into the United States. First published in 2007, the book examines the complex relationship between racial subordination and resistance over the course of a century. On the one hand, Meeks links the construction of multiple racial categories to the process of nation-state building and capitalist integration. On the other, he explores how the region’s diverse communities altered the blueprint drawn up by government officials and members of the Anglo majority for their assimilation or exclusion while redefining citizenship and national belonging.
The revised edition of this highly praised and influential study features dozens of new images, an introductory essay by historian Patricia Nelson Limerick, and a chapter-length afterword by the author. In his afterword, Meeks details and contextualizes Arizona’s aggressive response to undocumented immigration and ethnic studies in the decade after Border Citizens was first published, demonstrating that the broad-based movement against these measures had ramifications well beyond Arizona. He also revisits the Yaqui and Tohono O’odham nations on both sides of the Sonora-Arizona border, focusing on their efforts to retain, extend, and enrich their connections to one another in the face of increasingly stringent border enforcement.

Cindira's running out of time.
Time to find her father. Time to save the Prince from her step-mother's trap. Time to unravel the secrets of The Kingdom.
The VR program her mother created before her death builds castles, breathes life into dragons, and makes the fairy tale platform not only possible, but highly profitable. But The Kingdom has also made Cindira a servant, cleaning up messy lines of code and writing new ones to satisfy the selfish whims of her step-sister.
At least Cindira can take pride in maintaining her mother's legacy. That is, until she discovers that someone may be trying to destroy it. It's up to her to find out who before it's too late.
Is there enough time? Maybe, but midnight is coming soon.
The Cinderella Matrix is an urban fantasy twist on the classic Cinderella tale with a splash of cyberpunk from the author of the Red Hood Chronicles, Kendrai Meeks. Jack into City of Cinders now and start the adventure.

The national and international ministry of John Lawrence had one common theme: adding souls to the Kingdom of God. He was a great soul winner, evangelist, pastor, and marriage counselor. He cried loud against sin, in and outside the church, and no one was spared. The Lord poured upon him a powerful anointing and insight to the important keys for revivals, prison ministry, street evangelism, and God-approved marriages. Due to his obedience and unmovable pursuit to fulfill God's will, many church and individual ministries have blossomed, souls saved, marriages restored, and lives unshackled and delivered from the clutches of the evil one. It didn't matter if he was preaching to a storefront church with only ten in attendance or a church cathedral with a thousand attendees; he preached with a tenacity unlike any other evangelist I have ever seen. When it came to street ministry, John led the charge by being there, providing instruction for those who were serving along with him, going door-to-door from one location to the next. He held annual marriage seminars in various cities across the nation. As a result, many marriages were restored, strengthened, and healed. John Lawrence was on a quest for souls. He was a mighty conqueror indeed, crying loud and sparing not.
