But for various reasons the West has lost confidence in its cultural identity and moral authority in recent decades, and the result has been submission to decadence, to, and to Islam. The fundamentalist brand of Islam that is once again on the rise is antithetical, indeed openly hostile, to the values of Western civilization, and for many centuries Catholicism as a central component of European identity was a bulwark against its spread. One key reason is that the fastest- growing religion in the country and around the world is Islam – something Salon radicals also no doubt celebrate. Why is this an issue that should worry Americans and the Western world at large? Catholicism is losing more members than it gains at a higher rate than any other denomination – a recent development which the radical progressives at Salon celebrate. A 2015 Pew survey reported that the total number of Catholics in the United States dropped by 3 million since 2007, now comprising about 20 percent – or one-fifth – of the total population.

Their partnership lasted forty-four years, until Thea died in 2009. In the early 1960s Edie met Thea, an expat from a Dutch Jewish family that fled the Nazis, and a widely respected clinical psychologist. Edie was also one of a select group of trailblazing women in computing, working her way up the ladder at IBM and achieving their highest technical ranking while developing software. In this memoir, which she began before passing away in 2017 and completed by her co-writer, Edie recounts her childhood in Philadelphia, her realization that she was a lesbian, and her active social life in Greenwich Village's electrifying underground gay scene during the 1950s. Beloved by the LGBTQ community, Edie embraced her new role as an icon she had already been living an extraordinary and groundbreaking life for decades. The Supreme Court ruled in Edie's favor, a landmark victory that set the stage for full marriage equality in the US. Edie Windsor became internationally famous when she sued the US government, seeking federal recognition for her marriage to Thea Spyer, her partner of more than four decades. Abstract:"A lively, intimate memoir from an icon of the gay rights movement, describing gay life in 1950s and 60s New York City and her longtime activism which opened the door for marriage equality. A versatile and prolific author, Myers has written realistic and historical fiction, mysteries, adventure stories, fantasies, nonfiction, poetry, and picture books for a diverse audience of young people. As a member of this group, which includes such writers as Alice Childress, Lucille Clifton, Eloise Greenfield, Virginia Hamilton, and Sharon Bell Mathis, Myers brings both humor and poignancy to his books and is known for creating works with special appeal to boys in addition, he is considered the only prominent male writer of the group to have consistently published books of quality. A group of African American writers emerged in the 1960s and 1970s who are credited with providing more realistic storylines and more well-rounded portrayals of black characters than those by previous authors. An author of African American descent, he is considered responsible for helping redefine the image of blacks in juvenile literature. 2007.Ĭalled "one of today's most important authors of young adult literature" by Rudine Sims Bishop in Presenting Walter Dean Myers and "a giant among children's and young adult authors" by Frances Bradburn of Wilson Library Bulletin, Walter Dean Myers is regarded as one of the best contemporary American writers for children and young adults.

Meanwhile, in Taviera, Portugal, a man wakes up after sensing a shift in the Force. It's April 1944 and a unit of Wehrmacht soldiers occupy an old "keep," a fort-like structure in the Dinu Pass of Romania in the Transylvanian Alps that's rumored to be over 500 years old. It reads more like a work in progress than an adaption of a powerful horror novel that's been in print for over 30 years. There is no sense of suspense or tension, which is unfortunate because the premise of the story is tantalizing. Both seem flat, emotionless, and predictable. I didn't appreciate the artistic style and I thought the script was bland. It caught my eye while browsing the new books section at my library. The graphic novel adaptation was drawn by Matthew Dow Smith and the script was written by F. Paul Wilson, was a popular horror novel published back in 1981. Smith is the Pro-Vice Chancellor Māori, Dean of the School of Māori and Pacific Development and Director of Te Kotahi Research Institute at the University of Waikato. This work is considered a major contribution to research methods in social justice research. Smith is the author of Decolonizing Methodologies ( Zed Books, 1999, 2012, and 2021), a critical analysis of the role of Western scholarly research played in the process of colonization of indigenous cultures. She was a member of the Māori political group Ngā Tamatoa while a university student. Her 1996 thesis was titled Ngā aho o te kakahu matauranga: the multiple layers of struggle by Maori in education. Smith earned her BA, MA (hons), and PhD degrees at the University of Auckland. The daughter of Sidney Moko Mead, she affiliates to the Ngāti Awa and Ngāti Porou iwi.
