Zyanya: Always and Forever is the beginning of a three-book saga that takes place in a central Mexican rainforest. Zyanya is the name of the prosperous coffee plantation that Severo Alba founded. Former shaman and now deceased, Severo's lineage was chosen to bear and raise the child who would one day become the Great Shaman, fulfilling a 550-year-old prophecy. His son and grandson reject their heritage. They flee from the legend, the rituals, and shamanism. Now the ancient prophecy's time has come, when a great Shaman shall rise against evil, combining the power and wisdom of the most influential shamans in all the tribes. It is Jairo, Alba's great-grandson's time. Having been raised in Texas, away from Zyanya and the prophecies, 17-year-old Jairo is completely unaware of his legacy. The story begins when Tabatha, a 16-year-old girl from Dallas who is involuntarily moving with her parents to a third world country where her stepfather will be a doctor, arrives at a tiny village where the coffee plantation Zyanya is located. She is angry at leaving behind her life in Dallas and has a recurring dream about a boy who unsettles her. Uprooted from their city lives, these two teens face terrifying danger, as sorcery, magic and romance touch their lives. Greta Benavides-Adame was born in Monterrey, Mexico. She is married, has four grown children, and is a teacher in Giddings, Texas. Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/GretaBenavides-Adame

A powerful and deeply personal novel that follows a young African American man’s journey through the court system on the wrong side of the color line. The world is black and white—but Rilei tends to live in a gray area—until life forces him to open his eyes. From his sheltered childhood to his rude awakening to reality, must learn how to be a survivor in the ghetto streets of Akron, Ohio. Being a survivor also means that he’ll have to learn how to accept that the world doesn’t come in different shades of gray, and that he is on the wrong side of black and white. When he enters the criminal justice system, he finds it rigged against him from the beginning. Can Rilei tell his story and change the fate society has written for him? From a new voice in Black American fiction, this is a powerful, evocative portrait of a young man finding his way in a sometimes-hostile society that offers a first-person account of racism and asks: On the wrong side of the color line, is American justice possible, or is it just us?

The White Welfare State challenges common misconceptions of the development of U.S. welfare policy. Arguing that race has always been central to welfare policy-making in the United States, Deborah Ward breaks new ground by showing that the Mothers' Pensions--the Progressive-Era precursors to modern welfare programs--were premised on a policy of racial discrimination against blacks and other minorities. Ward's rigorous and thoroughly documented analysis demonstrates that the creation and implementation of the mothers' pensions program was driven by debates about who "deserved" social welfare and not who needed it the most. "In The White Welfare State, Deborah Ward assembles a powerful array of documentary and statistical evidence to reveal the mechanisms, centrality, and deep historical continuity of racial exclusion in modern 'welfare' provision in the United States. Bringing unparalleled scrutiny to the provisions and implementation of state-level mothers' pensions, she argues persuasively that racialized patterns of welfare administration were firmly entrenched in this Progressive Era legislation, only to be adopted and reinforced in the New Deal welfare state. With rigorous and clear-eyed analysis, she pushes us to confront the singular role of race in welfare's development, from its early 20th-century origins to its official demise at century's end." --Alice O'Connor, University of California at Santa Barbara "This is a richly informative and arresting work. The White Welfare State will force a reevaluation of the role racism has played as a fundamental feature in even the most progressive features of the American welfare state. Written elegantly, this book will provoke a wide-ranging discussion among social scientists, historians, and students of public policy." --Ira Katznelson, Ruggles Professor of Political Science and History, Columbia University "This book offers an original and absorbing account of early policies that shaped the course of the American welfare state. It extends yet challenges extant interpretations and expands our understanding of the interconnections of race and class issues in the U.S., and American political development more broadly." --Rodney Hero, University of Notre Dame

It is Chile, 1985, and the dictator has succeeded in stamping his absolute control on the military, the universities, the church . . . oh, and also on cemeteries, the city dump and clowns . . . What subversives can be left on the unstoppable march forward of the Fatherland? Just the whores – that strange, indecipherable and mysterious group of women who offer themselves for money. So it is that Colonel Arreola’s study centre ‘to unveil the mysteries of those sexual misfits who have devoted their lives to the malignant sins of the flesh’ comes to pass and Martina, Esmeralda and María de las Mercedes find themselves locked in the same cell under the meticulous scrutiny of the Colonel. Arreola is determined to discover why these women refuse to submit to the ‘chantilly lace blouse, low-heeled shoes and pleated skirt’ category that he has labeled ‘Submissive and a Good Mother’. Harsh and hilarious by turns, The Street of Night ranges in style from brutal reality to magic realism and slices through all notions that it is possible to categorize anyone. As the book unfolds, a dictator discovers that absolutism is not so absolute, while the prostitutes discover values within themselves that lifetimes of abuse had all but erased.

Delving into the complexities of contemporary reportage, this book draws from moral philosophy and histories of photojournalism to understand the emergence of this distinct practice and discuss its evolution in a digital era. In arguing that the digitization of photography obliges us to radically challenge some of the traditional conceptions of press photography, this book addresses the historic opposition between artistic and journalistic photographs, showing and challenging how this has subtly inspired support for a forensic approach to photojournalism ethics. The book situates this debate within questions of relativism over what is ‘moral’, and normative debates over what is ‘journalistic’, alongside technical debates as to what is ‘possible’, to underpin a discussion of photojournalism as an ethical, moral, and societally important journalistic practice. Including detailed comparative analyses of codes of ethics, examination of controversial cases, and a study of photojournalism ethics as applied in different newsrooms, the book examines how ethical principles are applied by the global news media and explores the potential for constructive dialogue between different voices interested in pursuing the best version of photojournalism. A targeted, comprehensive and engaging book, this is a valuable resource for academics, researchers and students of photojournalism, as well as philosophy, communications and media studies more broadly.
