At the end of the introduction for "K FOR THE WAY," Todd Craig invites you to "embark on a sonic and literary research ride orchestrated by two turntables, a mixer, and the vast and rich historical landscape that comes with it." We invite you to do the same by grabbing an AWARD-WINNING copy at #4C26

Y’all. 2008 was my first #CCCC and I didn’t think it was possible to see a book I had a hand in making among the available books in my field. So happy to see #Adequate in the wild #4C26

Photo of the book cover for Barbed Voices: Oral History, Resistance, and the World War II Japanese American Social Disaster

Includes the text:

"it is hardly an exaggeration or a distortion to style what the Japanese American population underwent a disaster. Not only healthy adults, but pregnant mothers, hospitalized cases, the extremely aged, and even infants were evicted to makeshift and isolated detention centers."

On this day in 1942, president Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, leading to the creation of 10 War Relocation Authority–administered concentration camps. Let us continue to amplify the voices of Japanese Americans who endured & resisted. #DayofRemembrance

What do you think of when you think about a hummingbird? Probably not the Aztec war deity Huitzilopochtli, but this bird in fact "incarnates all the desirable virtues of a perfect Nahua warrior." Check out this image of Huitzilopochtli from our upcoming book THE FLOWERY DEATH tinyurl.com/38pnd6a2

Book cover for Two Women in the Klondike with the text "Hitchcock's account of the Klondike Gold Rush is an outrageous adventure for general readers, armchair travelers, and anyone interested in the lives of American women in the late 1800s."

Book cover for Two Women in the Klondike with the text "Hitchcock's account of the Klondike Gold Rush is an outrageous adventure for general readers, armchair travelers, and anyone interested in the lives of American women in the late 1800s."

Personally, we love an "old" book. In fact, here's one for you from 1899, republished in our Classic Reprint Series. The premise? Two well-bred socialites travel to the Klondike in search of gold and all manner of outrageousness ensues. #ReadUP #classic #feminist #literature
