'Early in my research, a friend with excellent knowledge of the
United Auto Workers internal operations told me, "Don't give up.
They are hiding something"...' It's 1990, and US labour is being
outsourced to Mexico. Rumours of a violent confrontation at the
Mexican Ford Assembly plant on January 8 reach the United Auto
Workers (UAW) union in the US: nine employees had been shot by a
group of drunken thugs and gangsters, in an act of political
repression which changed the course of Mexican and US workers'
rights forever. Rob McKenzie was working at the Ford Twin Cities
Assembly plant in Minnesota when he heard of the attack. He didn't
believe the official story, and began a years-long investigation to
uncover the truth. His findings took him further than he expected -
all the way to the doors of the CIA. Virtually unknown outside of
Mexico, the full story of 'El Golpe', or 'The Coup', is a dark tale
of political intrigue that still resonates today.
You don't need a flower field in the countryside to grow cut
flowers, arrange beautiful floral displays or connect with nature.
A simple patch of earth is plenty. In Grow and Gather, you'll
follow the annual cycle of growing cut flowers, from sowing in
spring to seed-collecting in autumn. Simple projects show you how
to plant and nurture various flowers, as well as
demonstrating the importance of texture, colour and shape
when arranging them. Together with these practical projects, tips
and hints, flower field gardener and clinical psychologist Grace
Alexander guides you in the art of meaningful, engaged and
intentional gardening - through mindful growing, you can transform
your wellbeing and find a greater connection to your garden and
yourself.
