How southern members of Congress remade the United States in their
own image after the Civil War No question has loomed larger in the
American experience than the role of the South. Southern Nation
examines how southern members of Congress shaped national public
policy and American institutions from Reconstruction to the New
Deal-and along the way remade the region and the nation in their
own image. The central paradox of southern politics was how such a
highly diverse region could be transformed into a coherent and
unified bloc-a veritable nation within a nation that exercised
extraordinary influence in politics. This book shows how this
unlikely transformation occurred in Congress, the institutional
site where the South's representatives forged a new relationship
with the rest of the nation. Drawing on an innovative theory of
southern lawmaking, in-depth analyses of key historical sources,
and congressional data, Southern Nation traces how southern
legislators confronted the dilemma of needing federal investment
while opposing interference with the South's racial hierarchy, a
problem they navigated with mixed results before choosing to
prioritize white supremacy above all else. Southern Nation reveals
how southern members of Congress gradually won for themselves an
unparalleled role in policymaking, and left all southerners-whites
and blacks-disadvantaged to this day. At first, the successful
defense of the South's capacity to govern race relations left
southern political leaders locally empowered but marginalized
nationally. With changing rules in Congress, however, southern
representatives soon became strategically positioned to profoundly
influence national affairs.
Building and supporting effective special education programs School

and educational climate, many administrators and teachers are
overwhelmed, and few feel adequately prepared to meet the demands.

support timely, legally sound, and effective special education
services and programs. Readers will find: the most up-to-date
information on how to effectively implement special education
programs, processes, and procedures examination of a wide variety
of issues, from developing and implementing individual education
programs (IEPs) that confer a free appropriate public education,
Section 504, least restrictive environment (LRE), and successfully
collaborating with parents, to issues regarding accountability,
staffing, bullying, early childhood special education, multi-tiered
systems of support (MTSS), evidence-based practices, transition,
discipline, and the school-to-prison pipeline extensive references
and resources Written as a comprehensive reference for all who work
with students with disabilities, this book offers the most
up-to-date research and field-tested strategies from a range of
experts that special education professionals can confidently and
immediately apply.

Stephen is middle-aged. He's gay. He's content, except when he
isn't. Stephen is a teacher. He's a poet. He has a new teaching job
in Kamloops, BC. Stephen has HIV.DR SAD is the story of one man's
journey across Canada and through his diagnosis. It is the story of
the distance between queer urban spaces and a small campus in a
small city in small-town BC. It is the story of discovering the
self within the world, and the world within the self, of
discovering the difference between living a life and simply
enduring one. This is a tragicomic cross-campus, cross-country romp
that believes in the power of romance. Weaving together narratives
of past and present, of Toronto's Gay Village and the streets of
Kamloops, BC this lively and dynamic semi-autobiographical novel
dives deeply into gender and queerness, class and privilege, and
the realities of aging. It is a dynamic and engaging hybrid,
stylistically daring while remaining intimate and human. Leaping
through time and mixing the playfully serious with the seriously
playful, DR SAD blends poetry with prose and finds the humour in
despair in one complete, glittering tragedy of triumph.
