The origin of the events during the summer of 1990 in a little-known area of Quebec lies deep within the history of Canada. Resistance to government's handling of land claims is not new, but the extreme and violent form of the response at Oka heralded a new approach by First Nations to the resolution of Aboriginal land and treaty rights in Canada. Circles of Time documents the experiences of Aboriginal people, their history and recent negotiations in Ontario, and provides insight into the historiography of the treaty-making process, particularly in the last quarter-century. Controversial decisions such as the Temagami case and Oka are detailed, and McNab, who draws on archival sources that support oral history, provides a new perspective on land claims issues. Such compelling background information will be invaluable to anyone endeavoring to understand the origin and the current controversies surrounding Aboriginal land and treaty rights, and will clarify the reasons for resistance. Above all, this book will remind us we must never forget that this history belongs to Aboriginal people. Turtle Island is their place, and their oral history can no longer be ignored.

Already, Demuth is a legend. Funny how a man can disappear.... There is left only the smoke, the souvenir--the essence, I suppose you could call it." -- Marcel Duchamp, January 21, 1956In 1922, William Carlos Williams reimagined what a book of poetry could be when he published Spring and All, dedicated to his friend Charles Demuth. Smoke and Souvenirs by David T. Shoemaker reimagines what a biography can be. Combining poetry and essays, Mr. Shoemaker reveals little details that unlock the inner life of the man behind the Demuth legend. More than just a biography, the book is a celebration of the power of friendship to inspire, challenge, encourage, and support one other to become the best versions of ourselves.A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book supports the Demuth Museum and their mission of "developing awareness, understanding, and appreciation of the artwork and legacy of Charles Demuth, renowned American modernist painter, and his family's contributions to the Lancaster community.

Leaders at both school and district levels need to understand the complexities of equity and its role in order to support their students and staff and to avoid the pitfalls that their colleagues have become victims to due to a lack of knowledge and perspective. Beginning with a foundational understanding surrounding the multifaceted aspects of equity in the school setting, this book supports the researched practitioner with resources and tools to explore policies, practices, and daily decisions that occur as a result. The hands-on approach of case study analysis, followed by the factual review of “what happened” in the actual scenarios, allows for a self-reflective examination of individual decision making and insight concerning what pitfalls to avoid and/or expect. The reflective practice that each leader must strive to perform during their ongoing leadership journey is supported with an introduction to additional theories and subsequent learning concepts.
