‘Alix E. Harrow is an exceptional, undeniable talent’ - Olivie
Blake Step into Starling House – if you dare . . . Nobody in Eden
remembers when Starling House was built. But the town agrees it’s
best to let this ill-omened mansion – and its last lonely heir
– go to hell. Stories of the house’s bad luck, like good china,
have been passed down the generations. Opal knows better than to
mess with haunted houses, or brooding men. But when an opportunity
to work there arises, the money might get her brother out of Eden.
Starling House is uncanny and full of secrets – just like Arthur,
its heir. It also feels strangely, dangerously, like something
she’s never had: a home. Yet Opal isn’t the only one interested
in the horrors and the wonders that lie buried beneath it. Sinister
forces converge on Eden – and Opal realizes that if she wants a
home, she’ll have to fight for it. Even if it involves digging up
her family’s ugly past to achieve a better future. She’ll have
to go down, deep down beneath Starling House, to claw her way back
to the light . . . This is a sweeping gothic fairytale from Hugo,
Nebula and Locus Award-shortlisted Alix E. Harrow.

Comedy starring Anna Faris as Jane, an unambitious actress with a
taste for marijuana. One morning, Jane has a big audition and gets
stoned to take the edge off her anxieties. Under the influence, she
decides to eat the 14 cupcakes that her roommate Steve (Danny
Masterson) has made. But what Jane doesn't realise is that the
cupcakes actually contain some very strong weed, and getting
through the rest of her day is going to prove a much more difficult
task than she first anticipated.

Since the rise of Donald Trump and other right-wing authoritarians
worldwide, we have been told to “resist.” But this kind of
opposition looks surprisingly like restoring the status quo. Under
the banner of resistance, liberals and progressives have encouraged
voting for Democrats, reading the mainstream media, trusting the
science, putting up yard signs, buying the right products, and
celebrating a “return to normal.” How was “resistance”
diluted, and where can we find alternative forms of resistance for
present and future struggles? Alix Olson and Alex Zamalin offer a
clear-eyed critical account of how neoliberalism has redefined
resistance to thwart social movements and consolidate power. Elites
have domesticated and coopted some once-radical concepts and
practices into “restorative resistance” that bolsters support
for an unjust social order while marginalizing, racializing, and
criminalizing many others. Olson and Zamalin argue that true
resistance to racial neoliberalism must instead be deeply
antirestorative: collective, horizontal, counterhegemonic,
radically democratic insurrectionary movements that cannot be
redirected into shoring up the existing order. This “unruly
world-building”—exemplified by Occupy Wall Street, the Movement
for Black Lives, Indigenous activism at Standing Rock, and
more—pushes us to live, think, and dream beyond profit
maximization, democratic civility, and individual freedom.
Powerfully and accessibly written with manifesto-like urgency, The
Ends of Resistance shows how marginalized voices and social
movements deepen our thinking for confronting power.

This book takes a fresh look at the connection between history and
policy, proposing that historians rediscover a sense of 'public
purpose' that can embrace political decision-making - and also
enhance historical practice. Making policy is a complex and messy
affair, calling on many different forms of expertise and historians
have often been reluctant to get involved in policy advice, with
those interested in 'history in public' tending to work with
museums, heritage sites, broadcasters and community organisations.
Green notes, however, that historians have also insisted that
'history matters' in public policy debate, and been critical of
politicians' distortions or neglect of the past. She argues that it
is not possible to have it both ways.
This highly practical book supports the knowledge and development
of Teaching Assistants and Learning Support Assistants (TAs/LSAs)
in their understanding of neurodivergent pupils. Considering a
neurodivergent world is vital in society today, and even more so in
the classroom. Starting with a model of difference rather than
deficit and highlighting the complexities involved, this accessible
resource focuses on effective strategies to support these pupils
and explores the vital role of learning support in a range of
different contexts. Rich in pedagogical features, this book
includes chapter objectives, a ‘reflect and revisit’ section,
links throughout to the Teaching Assistant Standards and questions
for reflection within each chapter. Each chapter also has a
‘further reading’ section which will include pointers to other
articles, websites and relevant charities and organisations that
can aid the support and development for TAs and LSAs. This
important work will provide SENCOs with a framework to support
their support staff in the classroom.
