Cook remains an inspirational character for students today.James Cook was a sailor and navigator who had one objective: to find the Great South Land. He never achieved this objective though, and the subsequent colonizing of the Pacific countries was done by others. Still, Cook rose from very humble beginnings to eventually have a space shuttle named after his ship. This story is an introduction to a great explorer, who's image, however, is currently under criticism for his association with the colonization of the Pacific nations.

Are you an emerging practitioner in the field of school social work? Are you new to the field and wondering, "where do I start, do I know enough, or how do I use my social work training in this specific field?" If you are searching for ideas on these questions, then this text is for you.School Social Work: Engaging Social Justice and Racial Equity from Practitioners' Perspectives is a compendium of articles written by a diverse group of experienced school social work practitioners and educators. We have combined our collective practice wisdom with research-derived evidence to provide practical guidance to both new and experienced school social workers. We address the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing, Performance Expectations for the Pupil Personnel Services Credential in School Social Work and Child Welfare and Attendance as well as the Council on Social Work Education, EPAS Competencies by focusing on the needs for social justice and equity for the most vulnerable children in our schools.While our focus is mainly on the diverse needs of children in California and the legal codes that impact them, this material will be very informative to school social work practitioners across the country. We address a range of topics from trauma-informed care, alternative disciplinary practices, group work, ethics, attendance, suicide and psychological crisis response, and family, teacher and community engagement. Furthermore, we focus on various vulnerable and underserved groups of children, including Native Americans, youth in need of Special Education, LGBTQ, Foster and unhoused youth, pre-school children, newcomers, and gang-affiliated youth. Our intent is for our material to help school social workers address the systemic needs of schools to create a more equitable and nurturing learning environment for all children.
The Ancient Language of Sacred Sound

The Ancient Language of Sacred Sound

Reveals the connections between the Earth’s resonant frequencies, sacred sites, human consciousness, and the origins of religion• Details how sacred sites resonate at the same frequencies as both the Earth and the alpha waves of the human brain • Shows how human writing in its original hieroglyphic form was a direct response to the divine sound patterns of sacred sites • Explains how ancient hero myths from around the world relate to divine acoustic science and formed the source of religion The Earth resonates at an extremely low frequency. Known as “the Schumann Resonance,” this natural rhythm of the Earth precisely corresponds with the human brain’s alpha wave frequencies--the frequency at which we enter into and come out of sleep as well as the frequency of deep meditation, inspiration, and problem solving. Sound experiments reveal that sacred sites and structures like stupas, pyramids, and cathedrals also resonate at these special frequencies when activated by chanting and singing. Did our ancestors build their sacred sites according to the rhythms of the Earth? Exploring the acoustic connections between the Earth, the human brain, and sacred spaces, David Elkington shows how humanity maintained a direct line of communication with Mother Earth and the Divine through the construction of sacred sites, such as Stonehenge, Newgrange, Machu Picchu, Chartres Cathedral, and the pyramids of both Egypt and Mexico. He reveals how human writing in its original hieroglyphic form was a direct response to the divine sound patterns of sacred sites, showing how, for example, recognizable hieroglyphs appear in sand patterns when the sacred frequencies of the Great Pyramid are activated. Looking at ancient hero legends--those about the bringers of important knowledge or language--Elkington explains how these myths form the source of ancient religion and have a unique mythological resonance, as do the sites associated with them. The author then reveals how religion, including Christianity, is an ancient language of acoustic science given expression by the world’s sacred sites and shows that power places played a profound role in the development of human civilization.
