Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

A celebrated young British artist uses her gift to convey the
dignity and resilience of women survivors of violence in forgotten
corners of the world. This debut art book by British artist and
human rights activist Hannah Rose Thomas presents her stunning
portrait paintings of Yazidi women who escaped ISIS captivity,
Rohingya women who fled violence in Myanmar, and Nigerian women who
survived Boko Haram violence, alongside their own words, stories,
and self-portraits. A final chapter features portraits and stories
of Afghan, Ukrainian, Uyghur, and Palestinian women. These
portraits, depicting women from three continents and three
religions, are a visual testimony not only of war and injustice but
also of humanity and resilience. Many of the women have suffered
sexual violence; all have been persecuted and forcibly displaced on
account of their faith or ethnicity. Hannah Rose Thomas met these
women in Iraqi Kurdistan, Bangladeshi refugee camps, and Northern
Nigeria while organizing art projects to teach women how to paint
their self-portraits as a way to reclaim their personhood and
self-worth. She gives women their own voice both by creating a safe
space for them to share their stories and by using her impressive
connections to make sure their stories are heard in places of
influence in the Global North. Thomas uses techniques of
traditional sacred art â early Renaissance tempera and oil
painting and gold leaf â to convey the sacred value of each of
these women in spite of all that they have suffered. This symbolic
restoration of dignity is especially important considering the
stigma surrounding sexual violence. Hannahâs work attests to the
power of the arts as a vehicle for healing, remembering, inclusion,
and dialogue. Long after the news cameras have moved on to the next
conflict, this book shines a spotlight on the ongoing work of
healing and restoration in some of the most vulnerable and
marginalized communities around the world. All publisher
profits from this book will be donated to relevant charities.
The book begins with information about earthworms: their habitat,
movements and diet. A sequence diagram illustrates how earthworms
are 'farmed' in worm bins to produce fertiliser. There is a case
study about a few Class 4 learners who have a worm bin at their
school. The book ends with a short piece about how earthworms are
used at restaurants. There is a 'thank you' page at the end.
