A clear, straightforward guide to the rudiments of linguistics,
aimed at A-level and undergraduate students. Explains the technical
features, and leads to a full understanding, providing the sound
base needed for exploring other branches of the field.
Through innovative and critical research, this anthology inquires
and challenges issues of race and positionality, empirical
sciences, colonial education models, and indigenous knowledges.
Chapter authors from diverse backgrounds present empirical
explorations that examine how decolonial work and Indigenous
knowledges disrupt, problematize, challenge, and transform ongoing
colonial oppression and colonial paradigm. This book utilizes
provocative and critical research that takes up issues of race, the
shortfalls of empirical sciences, colonial education models, and
the need for a resurgence in Indigenous knowledges to usher in a
new public sphere. This book is a testament of hope that places
decolonization at the heart of our human community.
This multidisciplinary collection probes ways in which emerging and
established scholars perceive and theorize decolonization and
resistance in their own fields of work, from education to political
and social studies, to psychology, medicine, and beyond. In this
time of renewed global spiritual awakening, indigenous communities
are revisiting ways of knowing and evoking theories of resistance
informed by communal theories of solidarity. Using an
intersectional lens, chapter authors present or imagine modes of
solidarity, resistance, and political action that subvert colonial
and neocolonial formations. Placing emphasis on the importance of
theorizing the spirit, a discourse that is deeply embedded in our
unique cultures and ancestries, this book is able to capture and
better understand these moments and processes of spiritual
emergence/re-emergence.

This edited collection centres the reclamation of global counter
and Indigenous knowledges, epistemologies, ontologies, axiologies,
and cosmovisions that have the capacity to create new educational
leadership frameworks that chart courses to visions beyond the
current oppressive systems of education. Contributing authors
discuss what does it look like to have thriving decolonial
educational systems? What is the educational leadership that is
needed and required to get us there? What does it look like from
these global Indigenous and decolonial perspectives? How do we
begin dismantling dominant and colonial systems, structures and
styles of leadership? Schooling and education in the wake of
ongoing colonial injustices requires a revolutionary (re)awakening
and the creation of schooling and educational systems that
inherently honour the sacredness of life on this Earth, beyond the
anthropocentric. The centring, reclamation and reaffirmation of
global counter and Indigenous knowledges in educational leadership
is not an individual, nor isolated endeavour. Through this
understanding, this anthology is centred around themes of
schooling, community building, liberatory praxis and decolonial
movements, and Indigenous governance.
What if there was a story that had never been told, a story that
spanned almost five decades, a story that involved the great
conflict between the superpowers, a story that would enchant the
reader with great drama, pain, suffering, and resilience, and was
literally a story that could change the world? And what if it was
all completely true? The People's Mujahadeen of Iran, or Mujuhadeen
e Khalk, (PMOI/MEK) are the least understood resistance force in
the world, they are also the most-maligned, due to overt campaigns
against them by Iran's Mullahs and even the West. Almost no one
knows their true story. This is a tale of resistance against the
Shah during the 1970s, to betrayal by the American government in
the last decade. The story involves the Reagan administration to
the Biden White House, who is Hell-bent on giving Iran nuclear
weapons. It is a narrative of shocking abuse, mass murder, and a
refusal to yield to evil, no matter the cost. It is a story that
will open the eyes of the reader and could literally change the
world with regime change in Iran in the recognizable future.

All she wanted was one night. One night to feel something. She
would never see him again. No one had to know. During a girls'
weekend in Las Vegas, Marley Jacobs makes the risky decision to let
go of the stress of her reality and enjoy life, even if it's just
for one night. Green-eyed and gorgeous Blake Hamilton opens her
eyes to all the pleasures Vegas has to offer and allows her to
experience something other than the desperate suffocation she has
grown accustomed to. When she returns home to New York and the
shackles which await her, she has to forget about Blake, and how he
made her feel more alive in one night than she ever has in her
entire life. Marley never thought she would see Blake again, but a
moment of kismet throws them back together. It doesn't take Marley
long to realize that the burning desire for Blake didn't come from
the dry heat of the desert. The passion Marley has for Blake is
dizzying and without warning, intimacy creeps in. Falling for Blake
isn't part of Marley's plan. She knows exactly how her life is
supposed to be and she cannot afford to be distracted by him or his
green eyes. The only problem is, for someone she isn't supposed to
be with, he seems to fit perfectly within her heart.
