Описание:

How do people improvise political communities in the face of state collapse—and at what cost? Street Sovereigns explores the risks and rewards taken by young men on the margins of urban Haiti who broker relations with politicians, state agents, and NGO workers in order to secure representation, resources, and jobs for themselves and neighbors. Moving beyond mainstream analyses that understand these groups—known as baz (base)—as apolitical, criminal gangs, Chelsey Kivland argues that they more accurately express a novel mode of street politics that has resulted from the nexus of liberalizing orders of governance and development with longstanding practices of militant organizing in Haiti.

Kivland demonstrates how the baz exemplifies an innovative and effective platform for intervening in the contemporary political order, while at the same time reproducing gendered and generational hierarchies and precipitating contests of leadership that exacerbate neighborhood insecurity. Still, through the continual effort to reconstitute a state that responds to the needs of the urban poor, this story offers a poignant lesson for political thought: one that counters prevailing conceptualizations of the state as that which should be flouted, escaped, or dismantled. The baz project reminds us that in the stead of a vitiated government and public sector the state resurfaces as the aspirational bedrock of the good society. "We make the state," as baz leaders say.

Описание:

This book is a true account of events that I experienced in my life. The things that happened to me and my family members were challenging and at times they seemed impossible to overcome, but my faith in God allowed me to stand on the word of God in the midst of these difficulties. I believe with all my heart, that God Himself trained me and my family to become true champions for Christ. He used the trials and triumphs to show me his perfect plan for my life and the life of my family. What I learned is amazing. Chelsea's Heart is a section of the book that Chelsea herself wrote to demonstrate the power of God over her challenges as a special needs child with CHARGE syndrome. Her story is real and moving. Hear Chelsea's Heart in this book. She speaks her truth.

"You Are Loved" is a great book for children that are walking alongside someone they love that is on a medical journey.

So, if you know a child/children that has a sibling, or a cousin, or a friend that is on a medical journey this is a great book for that child/children.

Here are some example pages: "You are loved just the way you are", "You are caring when you help someone in need", "You are treasured even if you are not getting all the attention", "You are cheerful even if someone else receives a gift" and "no matter what, you are always loved " And more

Kathy Caudill did a fantastic job on the illustrations and I can't wait for you to see her work. Her heart has really been poured out into this project and it's been a joy working along side Kathy Caudill.

In this book there is a hidden feather in each image, in loving memory of Kathy's son, Erik. So be sure to look for those.
