Описание: Fran Leeper Buss, a former welfare recipient who earned a PhD in history and became a pioneer in the field of oral history, has for forty years dedicated herself to the goal of collecting the stories of marginal and working-class U.S. women. Memory, Meaning, and Resistance is based on over 100 oral histories gathered from women from a variety of racial, ethnic, and geographical backgrounds, including a traditionalMexican American midwife, a Latina poet and organizer for the United Farm Workers, and an African American union and freedom movement organizer. Buss now analyzes this body of work, identifying common themes in women’s lives and resistance that unite the oral histories she has gathered. From the beginning, her work has shed light on the inseparable, compounding effects of gender, race, ethnicity, and class on women’s lives—what is now commonly called intersectionality. Memory, Meaning, and Resistance is structured thematically, with each chapter analyzing a concept that runs through the oral histories, e.g., agency, activism, religion. The result is a testament to women’s individual and collective strength, and an invaluable guide for students and researchers, on how to effectively and sensitively conduct oral histories that observe, record, recount, and analyze women’s life stories.

Two Mexican drug smugglers are murdered on Native American soil and the only clues left behind are two single arrowheads in this compelling page-turner of tribal secrets and distrust at the border.
When detective Frank Silva of the Tohono O'odham Nation arrived at the scene of the crime he immediately feared his investigation would require him to turn inward--to his own people--in search of the killer. The 16-year-old archery star? The son of the tribe's most respected shaman? A member of the cartel whose drug mules have been exploiting easy passage through Tohono O'odham lands?
A complex web of lies, love and intrigue in the heart of the reservation pulls readers into a place and time in limbo straddling the U.S.-Mexican border which is struggling to retain its heritage and independence.
Two maverick detectives form an intriguing team trusting each other with not only their lives, but with the fate of the Tohono O'odham Nation in the crime mystery. The Poison of War, from award-winning author Jennifer Leeper, highlights the Tohono O'odham reservation's evolving struggle against Mexican cartels and their friction with border agents who hold the line stretching across the middle of the reservation.
The novella's setting of the American Southwest, particularly on a Native American reservation, and the style and cultural background of the detective protagonist draw resemblances to Tony Hillerman's works including Dance Hall of the Dead and The Blessing Way. For fans of Leeper's work and fortuitous newcomers, The Poison of War is a stunning tale that highlights timely issues of the U.S.-Mexico border, immigration, drug trafficking and the reservation culture of the Tohono O'odham tribe.

Do you find yourself searching for answers to the reasons behind your pain? In A Magnificent Blunder: From Divorce and Despair to Awe and Wonder, author Garry Leep shares how God can use even the most painful seasons to lead you into a boundless and beautiful life. From growing up in a spiritually-dead environment to absorbing biblical misconceptions for twenty years, Leep was lost, seeing God through the lenses of confusion and fear. His most difficult moment in life--losing the woman he loved to divorce--brought him to the deepest depths of grief and despair. Yet on his three-year journey of heartache, Leep went from the outposts of sadness to finding communion with the most beautiful, loving, and awesome God. It wasn't until his state of immense brokenness that Leep truly came to understand the gospel of Jesus Christ and God's desire to shape his journey of emotional wounds into an adventure of joy and wonder. After experiencing the amazing grace of God that brought him out of his personal grief, Leep discovered the truth of God's love that can restore a shattered past and repair a broken heart. Through this profound testimony of restoration and overcoming, Leep invites you into an intimate relationship with your heavenly Father who wants to transform your most painful moments into opportunities for spiritual growth. If you have endured extreme moments of grieving, A Magnificent Blunder will inspire you to discover the God of love and embrace a journey of awe and wonder. Born in 1952, Garry Leep was raised in one of the Dutch Reformed enclaves that surround Chicago like a string of pearls. After being drafted into the US Army at age twenty, Leep received honorable discharge and soon entered the world of business and commerce. He would go on to own and operate various businesses over the next forty years. A graduate from Trinity International University with an undergraduate degree in Communications and Organizational Leadership, Leep has a passion for furthering the gospel and grace of Jesus Christ through his writing. Now a retired businessman, Leep resides in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with his wife, Michele, and spends most of his time using his love for the written word to share his testimony and spiritual journey.
