"Xwulmuxw Slhunlheni (Indigenous Women) have, since time immemorial, played critical leadership roles in Indigenous communities. However, with the imposition of racist and sexist colonial policies, Indigenous women's roles were systematically displaced. As a result of these policies, which formalized colonial governance systems, the vital informal leadership roles the Xwulmuxw Slhunlheni play rarely receive recognition. This book strives to honour the women in our communities who continue to embrace their important roles as givers of life and carriers of culture. This book reviews new ways to view Indigenous women's leadership. Thirteen women from various Hul'qumi'num communities on Vancouver Island and the Mainland, share their thoughts on leadership and stress the importance of living our cultural and traditional teachings. A central theme for leadership emphasizes the importance of keeping the past, present and future connected--a Sacred Cycle that will ensure we bring our teachings forward for the future generations."--

This book argues that feminist aesthetics as practices of adult education can inform our responses to gendered, racial, class and ecological injustices. It illustrates the critical, creative, and provocative pedagogical theorising, research, and engagement work of feminist adult educators and researchers who work in diverse community, institutional, and social movement contexts across North America and Europe. This book captures the complexity, diversity, energy, and imagination of those who theorise, decolonise, facilitate, investigate, visualize, story, and create within the politics of gender (in)justice and radical change.

IN THE BEGINNING, THE KNOWLEDGE OF ‘GOOD AND EVIL’ THAT MANKIND WAS FORBIDDEN TO KNOW DESTROYED US TIME AND AGAIN. KNOWING WHAT WAS FORBIDDEN ---“GOD’S SACRED PLAN FOR LIFE” WILL STOP US FROM DESTROYING THE WORLD IN THE END! Revealing Heaven’s greatest secrets, solving life’s epic mysteries ---“God’s Sacred Plan For Life” tells an ancient story that no one, past or present, ever heard before! The greatest love story ever told about how good triumphs over evil contains one thing that mankind was forbidden to know by the gods of antiquity who created us ---“The Knowledge of Good (God) and Evil (Man)!” In the beginning, the gods who came from the heavens to earth stopped the natural course of man’s evolution. Giving them their alien DNA, the first man and woman were genetically engineered to be a slave-species for their creators who needed an army of primitive workers to do what was impossible to do by themselves. Mine a precious metal used to repair their planet’s atmosphere from a nuclear holocaust of their own making. Possessed by the DNA in their blood, the first earthlings were made to follow not lead, serve not disobey. The god’s lust for conquest, wealth, power, privilege, and status evolved to dominate human nature. Trained to sacrifice themselves and kill their own kind in the name of the egocentric gods they served, man’s soulless patterns of pain, suffering, war, and death were all learned from their inhuman patriarchal masters. Created in their image after their likeness, man destroyed countless civilizations, past and present, to become “The King of The World” just as the gods did on their planet. To change the self-destructive course of man’s fate, knowing good from evil will reveal the knowledge of ‘God’s Dual -Nature’ that clergy insist is unknowable; the knowledge of ‘Man’s Dual-Nature’ that psychoanalysts contend is mystifyingly contentious and ‘DNA’s Dual-Nature’ --- The cosmic-connection linking the spirit of God to the body of man, that from the beginning created the conflict between the forces of good and evil. Knowing what was unknown before will change people’s egocentric SELFimage. Changing man’s inhuman, alien nature mental illness, physical sickness, and spiritual disease will become relics of the past --- Stopping us from destroying all we love and cherish most ourselves, mates, children, families, world, and future. Making the impossible possible God’s plan for a better life will prove to be the mother of all SELFhelp, SELFhealing, and SELFtransformational technologies for one unprecedented reason --- “What was forbidden in the beginning that destroyed us is present in the end to save us!”

Taking into consideration the fact that many ecosystems are under-represented in protected areas of land and water and traditional management methods have often been ineffective, this volume describes how improvements can be made. Specifically, it explores ways of ensuring that all major ecosystems are safeguarded, and innovative approaches to conservation involving individuals, communities, companies and governments. The essence of the approach taken in the text is to build partnerships with those who have a stake in the care of land and water resources.

The early medieval manuscripts of Ireland and Britain contain tantalizing clues about the cosmology, religion and mythology of native Celtic cultures, despite censorship and revision by Christian redactors. Focusing on the latest research and translations, the author provides fresh insight into the beliefs and practices of the Iron Age inhabitants of Ireland, Britain and Gaul. Chapters cover creation and cosmogony, the deities of the Gaels, feminine power in narrative sources, druidic belief, priestesses and magical rites.

It is usually the case that scientists examine either ecological systems or social systems, yet the need for an interdisciplinary approach to the problems of environmental management and sustainable development is becoming increasingly obvious. Developed under the auspices of the Beijer Institute in Stockholm, this new book analyses social and ecological linkages in selected ecosystems using an international and interdisciplinary case study approach. The chapters provide detailed information on a variety of management practices for dealing with environmental change. Taken as a whole, the book will contribute to the greater understanding of essential social responses to changes in ecosystems, including the generation, accumulation and transmission of ecological knowledge, structure and dynamics of institutions, and the cultural values underlying these responses. A set of new (or rediscovered) principles for sustainable ecosystem management is also presented. Linking Social and Ecological Systems will be of value to natural and social scientists interested in sustainability.

For Nolan Wylie, high school graduation was his proudest accomplishment. With his friends Henri and Emmett beside him, Nolan proudly planned to become the big fi sh in their small town of Middlecreek, Texas. As they attended their last end-of-year carnival, plans were changed. When threatened by the hollow of a vengeful soul, a ravenous birthright within Nolan is awakened from its dormancy. With his friends beside him, Nolan is taken to a world known as Deva Prime, where he learns the truth behind his inheritance. With Nolans return, the all powerful appetite that lies within him promises to devour all reincarnations of magic. Nolan must beg for help from the Southern Magi before his next plan requires funeral arrangements.

Sacred Groves, Cultural Ecosystems and Conservation addresses the increasing contemporary relevance of ecosystems being depleted at an alarming rate worldwide. The purpose of this collection of essays is to bring together different perspectives on sacred groves in the context of the cultural and spiritual dimensions of biodiversity conservation. In offering an experience of sacred natural sites in varied cultural contexts of Africa and Asia, it raises a common concern for natural resource management. Based on the long-term research of the contributing authors, the nine chapters reflect a continuous process of redefining sacred spaces within an interdisciplinary framework grounded on existing literature and ethnographic field research. The highlight of the discourse is the complex interactions and negotiations between the ‘sacred’ and the ‘secular’; which brings center-stage the subject of sacred status that communities have given to nature. This book will be of interest to researchers and general audience alike interested and concerned with earth ecosystems and the spiritual world, creating a space for critical enquiry and future hopes in the face of threatening habitat loss.

This book presents current research in the political ecology of indigenous revival and its role in nature conservation in critical areas in the Americas. An important contribution to evolving studies on conservation of sacred natural sites (SNS), the book elucidates the complexity of development scenarios within cultural landscapes related to the appropriation of religion, environmental change in indigenous territories, and new conservation management approaches. Indigeneity and the Sacred explores how these struggles for land, rights, and political power are embedded within physical landscapes, and how indigenous identity is reconstituted as globalizing forces simultaneously threaten and promote the notion of indigeneity.
