The Indian Farmers Protest (The Resistance Collection)

About The Indian Farmers Protest (The Resistance Collection)

Sir-Inder Deol’s mastery of the poetic word transports the reader directly into the forefront of the largest mass protest in human history. His tone eloquently reflects a combination of the personal and collective struggle of the agitators, inviting readers to both question and better understand the political and corporate cogs of society. It literally makes you want to go out and protest! The Resistance Collection, whilst containing a rich insight into the Indian farmers’ protest, also crosses over. A modern-day inspirational manual of sorts for activists and reformers worldwide.

Deol illuminates every single poem with his command of figurative language, managing to effortlessly capture such raw emotion in a mere matter of words. The combination of the intellectual with the metaphorical depicts an imperative class consciousness narrative which encourages its reader to pause and reflect. It was within each pause that I found a truly unique insight into what resistance entailed, and what it evoked for the Indian farmers.

This is a timeless collection of poetry relating to this movement, as well as the plight of society in general. These are historic, dramatic, imaginative, and somewhat controversial verses covering farmers, labourers, union leaders, politicians, Greta Thunberg and even pop star Rihanna. If you love poetry, then this is a must-have book. It is a poetic resistance story like none other, one which resonates wholly with its reader. I look forward, eagerly, for what Deol may bring next, he is truly an emerging literary genius. He has created rare, insightful, harmonious, heart-rendering compositions of the largest mass movement of its kind: Any Place, Any Time… Anywhere. (Professor Balkar Singh, ‘Professor of Eminence’ Patiala University, India. Director of the World Punjabi Centre. Indian Author and Academic Scholar (Dec 2021).

American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing our Nation by Seth David Radwell


About Featured Book: American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing our Nation by Seth David Radwell

Limited time ebook price of $0.99 throughout the month of January.

An enlightened exploration of history to unite a deeply divided America

Two disparate Americas have always coexisted. In this thoroughly researched, engaging and ultimately hopeful story of our nation’s divergent roots, Seth David Radwell clearly links the fascinating history of the two American Enlightenments to our raging political division. He also demonstrates that reasoned analysis and historical perspective are the only antidote to irrational political discourse.

“Did my vision of America ever exist at all, or was it but a myth?” Searching for a fresh and distinctive perspective on the recent corrosion of our civic life, Radwell’s very personal and yet broadly shared question propelled his search back to our nation’s founding for a fresh and distinctive perspective on the recent corrosion of our civic life – and led to a surprising discovery. Today’s battles reflect the fundamentally divergent visions of our country that emerged at our nation’s founding and have been vying for prominence ever since. The founding principles that shaped the United States may be rooted in the Enlightenment era. But the origin of our dual Americas is a product of two distinct Enlightenments – Radical and Moderate.

American Schism begins with a quick reintroduction to the pre-Enlightenment Middle Ages and then takes readers on an in-depth journey through the revolutionary Enlightenment period including the eventual schism that began in Europe but then found its way to American shores. Radwell shows the impact of this schism on American history from the early expansion of the U.S. through Jim Crow and The Age of Trumpism.

In an optimistic and rigorous final section, Radwell lays out an analysis of our current governmental structure and a plan to move forward, demonstrating that it is only by embracing Enlightenment principles that we can build a civilized, progressive, and tolerant society – where Americans can firmly ground their different views in rationality.

The Whole Alphabet is Totally Embarrassed! (The Alphabet’s Top 26 Most Mortifying Moments)

About The Whole Alphabet is Totally Embarrassed! (The Alphabet’s Top 26 Most Mortifying Moments)

You’ll blush for B! You’ll cringe for C! You won’t believe the mortifying mistake R is about to make, and you’ll never have more fun learning letter sounds.

It’s the alphabet’s most mortifying and memorable moments. Twenty-six tiny tales told in alluring alliteration, each featuring a blushing red letter to highlight the phonic sounds. Kids will laugh their heads off at A who accidentally makes an awful aroma in his apartment, all the way to z who rides a zip-line into the end zone of a zebra at the zoo.

While on the surface it’s silly and sometimes gross humor, this book has proven to be extremely effective in teaching letter sounds to first-time readers, and even reluctant readers beg for it again and again. Recommended ages 4-7, though 8-10 year olds will enjoy the jokes too.

On planet Turaset, droughts ravage farmlands, cyclones rip through coastal cities, and with every barrel of oil the combustion industry pumps from the ground, the climate worsens.

He leaves the city to seek solace in the wilderness, and there, a power to live the past awakens within him. Alphonse walks the steps of his distant ancestors on long-dead Earth, soon growing plagued with memories of its collapse, and he’s left with a troubling certainty: He must infiltrate the combustion industry to secure proof of its treachery, or Turaset will be next to fall.
