Описание: - A New Republic Best Book of the Year - The Globalist Top Books of the Year - Winner of the Maine Literary Award for Non-fiction -Particularly relevant in understanding who voted for who in this presidential election year, this is an endlessly fascinating look at American regionalism and the eleven "nations" that continue to shape North America According to award-winning journalist and historian Colin Woodard, North America is made up of eleven distinct nations, each with its own unique historical roots. In American Nations he takes readers on a journey through the history of our fractured continent, offering a revolutionary and revelatory take on American identity, and how the conflicts between them have shaped our past and continue to mold our future. From the Deep South to the Far West, to Yankeedom to El Norte, Woodard (author of American Character: A History of the Epic Struggle Between Individual Liberty and the Common Good) reveals how each region continues to uphold its distinguishing ideals and identities today, with results that can be seen in the composition of the U.S. Congress or on the county-by-county election maps of any hotly contested election in our history.

Описание: In this book, Elizabeth M. Smith Woodard examines the intersection of ecclesiology, episcopacy, and apostolicity in ecumenical work to argue that Christians grow in unity as they grow in cruciformity. Rather than seeking to make others more "like us," ecumenism should rest on Christians seeking to be made more like Christ.
How the blinding of Sergeant Isaac Woodard changed the course of America's civil rights history
On February 12, 1946, Sergeant Isaac Woodard, a returning, decorated African American veteran, was removed from a Greyhound bus in Batesburg, South Carolina, after he challenged the bus driver's disrespectful treatment of him. Woodard, in uniform, was arrested by the local police chief, Lynwood Shull, and beaten and blinded while in custody.
President Harry Truman was outraged by the incident. He established the first presidential commission on civil rights and his Justice Department filed criminal charges against Shull. In July 1948, following his commission's recommendation, Truman ordered an end to segregation in the U.S. armed forces. An all-white South Carolina jury acquitted Shull, but the presiding judge, J. Waties Waring, was conscience-stricken by the failure of the court system to do justice by the soldier. Waring described the trial as his "baptism of fire," and began issuing major civil rights decisions from his Charleston courtroom, including his 1951 dissent in Briggs v. Elliott declaring public school segregation per se unconstitutional. Three years later, the Supreme Court adopted Waring's language and reasoning in Brown v. Board of Education. Richard Gergel's Unexampled Courage details the impact of the blinding of Sergeant Woodard on the racial awakening of President Truman and Judge Waring, and traces their influential roles in changing the course of America's civil rights history.

Описание: At Senegal’s House of Slaves, Barack Obama’s presidential visit renewed debate about authenticity, belonging, and the myth of return—not only for the president, but also for the slave fort itself. At the African Burial Ground National Monument in New York, up to ten thousand slave decedents lie buried beneath the area around Wall Street, which some of them helped to build and maintain. Their likely descendants, whose activism produced the monument located at that burial site, now occupy its margins. The Bench by the Road slave memorial at Sullivan’s Isle near Charleston reflects the region’s centrality in slavery’s legacy, a legacy made explicit when the murder of nine black parishioners by a white supremacist led to the removal of the Confederate flag from the state’s capitol grounds. Helena Woodard considers whether the historical slave sites that have been commemorated in the global community represent significant progress for the black community or are simply an unforgiving mirror of the present.In Slave Sites on Display: Reflecting Slavery’s Legacy through Contemporary "Flash" Moments, Woodard examines how select modern-day slave sites can be understood as contemporary "flash" moments: specific circumstances and/or seminal events that bind the past to the present. Woodard exposes the complex connections between these slave sites and the impact of race and slavery today. Though they differ from one another, all of these sites are displayed as slave memorials or monuments and function as high-profile tourist attractions. They interpret a story about the history of Atlantic slavery relative to the lived experiences of the diaspora slave descendants that organize and visit the sites.

Описание: Abstract: Measurements of the velocity dependence of the absolute total ionization cross section of argon atoms upon impact with selected metastable states of helium atoms are reported. A low voltage D. C. discharge was used as the source of the excited atoms, and a rotating slotted disk selector was used for velocity selection of the excited atoms. Selection of th electronic spin state of the excited atoms was accomplishe by irradiation of the excited atoms with radiation from a helium d i s cha r g e 1 amp . Ionization of the argon target atoms by metastable. heliui atoms was studied by the gas cell technique in which all ionization products were collected. The ionization measurements were of sufficient precision to allow simultaneous determination of the cross section and the secondary electron ejection efficiency for each metastable state of helium. The secondary electron ejection efficiency of triplet me tas table helium atoms on an electroplated gold surface was determined to be 0.440 + 0.018 in the presence of argon gas. The secondary electron ejection efficiency of singlet: metastable atoms was determined to be 0.582 + 0.024 under similar conditions. The local ionization cross section for the He(2 S)-Ar system was found to increase almost linearly from S.8 A to 2.1.95 with an increase of relative velocity from 1162 from 9.8 to 26.2 K 2 with an increase in relative m/sec to 2787 in/ sec. After an initial increase, of the cross section velocity from 989 m/sec to 2058 m/sec, the velocity dependence of the cross: section of the He (2 S)-Ar system entered a saturation region in which the cress section changed very little with relative velocity. The collision energy dependence of the He(2"S)-Ar system was also used to determine the values of adjustable parameters present in a current theory based on the potential curve model for Penning and associative Pennine ionization.

Описание: Many people today live their lives trapped inside themselves. The streets became my refuge, as my home was caught up in the Jehovah's Witness dogma and became my hell. I was tried and convicted - as an adult for armed robbery and murder - at the age of sixteen and was sentenced to life in prison. While in prison, I became the leader of a group of Muslims and began teaching an extreme form of Islam called Salalfiyya. I believed in jihad and wanted to fight all infidels in order to get to heaven. Hatred burned at my core, but God's love was more powerful than anger or hate. God reached down into me and unlocked the door of my heart and freed me from myself. On my road to Damascus, Jesus spoke to me words that would change my life forever.

Описание: "Lyrically written and profoundly told ... Kim Woodard Osterholzer's story ... embraced me on the first page and held me tight until the very last word."--Leslie Gould, #1 bestselling and Christy-award winning author "Inspiring in the best of ways."--Stasi Eldredge, New York Times bestselling author of Captivating: Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman's Soul "A master class in respectful, woman-centered midwifery."--Dr. Sara Wickham, author, midwifery lecturer, and consultant Kim Osterholzer, a midwife who's caught over 500 babies since 1993, ushers readers behind the doors of Amish homes as she recounts her lively and life-changing adventures learning the heart and craft of midwifery. In A Midwife in Amish Country, Kim chronicles the escapades of her nine-year apprenticeship grappling with the joys and struggles of homebirth as she tags along with the woman who helped her birth her own children at home. With drama and insight, she recounts the beauty and painstaking effort of those early years spent catching babies next to crackling woodstoves, under lantern light, and in farmhouses powered by windmills for running water and with outhouses for bathrooms. Some births kept her from home for days on end; others she missed by heart-pounding seconds. Yet every birth enthralled her, whether she was halting hemorrhages, blowing air into tiny lungs, or bouncing through wild rides in ambulances. Too many times to count, Kim stumbled home feeling overwhelmed and inadequate--yet as she strained against her misgivings, self-doubts, and seemingly insurmountable challenges, those sacred moments transformed her into a woman of power and conviction. Her experiences taught her the heart of true midwifery--stroking, smoothing, wiping, tidying, nourishing, comforting, hearing, encouraging, validating, and witnessing. Slowly, steadily, Kim learned to play her part as midwife to the Amish--women unflagging in their passion to welcome new lives--and at last, tried and tested, took her rightful place among them.
