Not All Dead Together is a sweeping saga that chronicles the lives of family members brought together by blood and by choice over decades of violent sociopolitical conflict and exploitative foreign relations between the United States and Guatemala.Through lyrical, richly detailed narratives told from multiple perspectives over a period of 65 years, we meet an ensemble cast of characters at critical points in their lives. Miguel, a physician at a neighborhood clinic in Guatemala, must immediately treat a boy who shot his own hand. Years earlier, his sister, Aleta, strives to improve the lives of her indigenous neighbors despite relentless systemic injustices and the constant threat of state-sponsored terror. A rudderless young Peace Corps volunteer named Gray finds the familial connection she craves in caring and perceptive Aleta, brilliant Miguel, their guileful brother, Carlos, and their kindhearted mother, Do a Paz. As the characters' paths intertwine, all question the direction of their lives in a world where the political and personal are inextricable and their choices can have life-or-death consequences.Master storyteller Lynn Stansbury creates a vivid and intimate portrait of how the Guatemalan Civil War - a horrendous era in foreign policy that the U.S. rarely confronts - upended the lives of ordinary people and continues to perpetuate harm across generations. At once fierce and tender, Not All Dead Together wrestles with complex questions on the meaning of heroism, resilience, and found family.

This book focuses on preparing culturally competent educators who use culturally sustaining practices and culturally relevant curricula and instruction to reach and teach all students with disabilities, including those with multiple social identities, through a varied multi-cultural lens. Today’s diverse classrooms require that educators possess competencies for teaching all students. This book has two primary audiences: 1. Pre-service educators2. Special education practitioners and administrators First, this book will assist pre-service students learning about special education for students with disabilities. We fully expect this book could be a required reading for students majoring in special education, for school social work students, for school counselors, and for students majoring in vocational rehabilitation services as a part of their coursework for transition.Second, this book will assist special education practitioners and administrators to meet the needs of individuals with disabilities including those with multiple social identities. Understanding the full-range of needs relating to cultural sustaining practices is imperative to working with individuals with disabilities and their families and care-givers. Being able to understand and explain this complex issue to others is important and often very necessary. This book is incredibly timely. Recent contributors to social injustices are the COVID-19 pandemic and the continued issues around police brutality and people of color. Social injustice in special education is historical and systemic. Special education practitioners are typically unaware of the importance of intersectional differences (Gay & Howard, 2000; Owen, 2010). Historically, practitioners have only been prepared to address cultural perspectives during awareness days and or through specific units in curricula. Other times they discuss it diagnostically (Linton, 1998), such as part of an educational plan or a need to learn English as a second language. Other issues stem from the value system of the special education practitioners themselves; some are not willing to engage in these concepts (Darling-Hammond, 2002); some “define fairness and equity as treating all children the same; and [others identify being] ‘colorblind’ [as] valuing diversity” (Owen, 2010, p. 18). Even when special educator practitioners attempt to address injustices on behalf of their students, they tend to center only on the student’s disability which means they are ignoring or erasing other aspects of their students’ identities. These issues highlight the importance of building the cultural competence of our teaching force. This book will help practitioners build this competence in their own spheres of influence.

A concise introduction to the pioneering media artist, from drawings to net-based art For over 50 years, Lynn Hershman Leeson (born 1941) has created an innovative and prescient body of work that mines intersections between technology and the self. Known for her pioneering contributions to media art, Hershman Leeson has consistently worked in tandem with the latest technological developments from Artificial Intelligence to DNA programming, often anticipating many of the issues affecting society today. Twisted brings together a selection of the artist’s work in drawing, sculpture, video, photography, and interactive and net-based art, focusing on themes of transmutation, identity construction and the evolution of the cyborg. It includes some of Hershman Leeson’s most important projects, including the Breathing Machine sculptures; early drawings from the 1960s, many of which have never been shown; works from the Roberta Breitmore series (1970–79), perhaps her best-known project, in which she transformed her own identity into a fictional persona; selections from her Water Women series (1976–2010); and many more.

The constructivist and abstract works Chadwick produced between 1963 and 1966 are essential to any analysis of his oeuvre. These sculptures demonstrate that Chadwick was as in touch with the zeitgeist as many of his younger contemporaries.
