The Racist Mind Portraits of American Neo-Nazis and Klansmen

The Racist Mind Portraits of American Neo-Nazis and Klansmen
The Racist Mind: Portraits of American Neo-Nazis and Klansmen By Raphael S. Ezekiel
1996 | 368 Pages | ISBN: 0140234497 | PDF | 29 MB
A Journey Inside The American White Racist Movement Recent domestic terrorist attacks have turned a new spotlight on the secret world and chilling ideology of the American radical right, but swastika armbands and racial slogans have been making news for decades. Who are these people so full of venom? Where do their fears come from? Are they dangerous, pathetic, or both? Raphael S. Ezekiel, who grew up Jewish in segregated East Texas, takes you to a Klan rally in Georgia and an Aryan Nations Congress in northern Idaho. In extensive interviews you'll hear from three national white militant leaders, including Tom Metzger, and members of a Detroit neo-Nazi cell. In this powerfully enlightening book, Ezekiel sweeps aside the fear and mystery to reveal real individuals: savvy leaders hungry for power at any cost, and young people with empty lives, starved for potency and meaning. Cover design by Daniel Rembert/Cover illustration by Tristan Elwell. "Ezekiel's pointed volume is the best available modern source for grasping the psychological foundations of the Radical Right."-Thomas F Pettigrew, Univ. of Cal., Santa Cruz.

?The Psycho Records follows the influence of the primal shower scene within subsequent slasher and splatter films. American soldiers returning from World War II were called "psychos" if they exhibited mental illness. Robert Bloch and Alfred Hitchcock turned the term into a catch-all phrase for a range of psychotic and psychopathic symptoms or dispositions. They transferred a war disorder to the American heartland. Drawing on his experience with German film, Hitchcock packed inside his shower stall the essence of

The Paradox of Preservation Wilderness and Working Landscapes at Point Reyes National Seashore

The Paradox of Preservation Wilderness and Working Landscapes at Point Reyes National Seashore
Laura Alice Watt, "The Paradox of Preservation: Wilderness and Working Landscapes at Point Reyes National Seashore"
English | ISBN: 0520277082 | 2016 | 368 pages | EPUB | 13 MB
Point Reyes National Seashore has a long history as a working landscape, with dairy and beef ranching, fishing, and oyster farming; yet, since 1962 it has also been managed as a National Seashore. The Paradox of Preservation chronicles how national ideals about what a park "ought to be" have developed over time and what happens when these ideals are implemented by the National Park Service (NPS) in its efforts to preserve places that are also lived-in landscapes. Using the conflict surrounding the closure of the Drakes Bay Oyster Company, Laura Alice Watt examines how NPS management policies and processes for land use and protection do not always reflect the needs and values of local residents. Instead, the resulting landscapes produced by the NPS represent a series of compromises between use and protection-and between the area's historic pastoral character and a newer vision of wilderness. A fascinating and deeply researched book,

The New Arab Journalist: Mission and Identity in a Time of Turmoil By Lawrence Pintak
2011 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 1848850980 | PDF | 4 MB
The Arab media is in the midst of a revolution that will inform questions of war and peace in the Middle East, political and societal reform, and relations between the West and the Arab World. Drawing on the first broad cross-border survey of Arab journalists, first-person interviews with scores of reporters and editors, and his three decades' experience reporting from the Middle East, Lawrence Pintak examines how Arab journalists see themselves and their mission at this critical time in the evolution of the Arab media. He explores how, in a diverse Arab media landscape expressing myriad opinions, journalists are still under siege as governments fight a rear-guard action to manage the message. This innovative book breaks through the stereotypes about Arab journalists to reveal the fascinating and complex reality -- and what it means for the rest of us.
