Arab American Blues
A thoughtful and wonderfully written coming-of-age story set during one of the most tumultuous and divisive periods in US history. A lyrical coming-of-age novel set against the political upheaval and cultural reckoning of 1960s America, this powerful debut explores immigrant identity, race, love, and awakening during one of the most divisive eras in US history. Michael Haddad, the teenage son of Palestinian immigrants, grows up in his family's working-class New York City grocery store, delivering food through a changing neighborhood in 1967. As he enters the private worlds of his customers, Michael bears witness to the fractures and solidarities of urban America--from violent encounters with racist bullies to moments of unexpected compassion. He mourns alongside a grieving mother whose son was killed in the Vietnam War, and finds community with the first Black family to move onto the block. Michael's emotional and sexual awakening unfolds through a relationship with a radical college activist, who introduces him to love, protest, and political consciousness, challenging him to test America's ideals against its realities. His journey is shaped by seismic national events, including the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy, which mirror his own inner turmoil. As racism, social unrest, and generational expectations collide, Michael must confront a sudden personal tragedy and reckon with what it means to be a dutiful son, an Arab American, and an individual seeking freedom. Ultimately, he must face his fears, embrace his heritage, and claim his place in a rapidly changing nation. -
No!: The Art and Activism of Complaining
An assembly of refusals portraying the radical power of "no" by the renowned scholar and author of The Feminist Killjoy Handbook, Sara Ahmed.
To be heard as complaining is not to be heard, writes Sara Ahmed. In her sweeping exploration of complaint as a means of resistance, Ahmed attunes her "feminist ear" to those who seek to challenge powerful institutions. She shows how complaints can unbury past complaints, getting them out of filing cabinets or from behind closed doors, allowing us to see institutions more clearly--how they work, and for whom they work.
Where complaints live, how complaints are made, who receives them, who buries them and where--Ahmed's accessible, attentive writing brings to life the lessons learned from people knocking at closed doors, teaching us how to collectively resist the glacial weight of institutional power. This book inspires all of us to persist, to say "No!" and to build new collectivities that break down brick walls together.

Nothing to Attain: Zen Stories of Faith and Understanding
An exploration of the Zen Buddhist path through classic stories of the tradition--from the esteemed Zen teacher Reb Anderson. We all fully possess the wisdom and virtues of the buddhas. This is our original nature. It is completely pure and always accessible, but because of misconceptions and attachments we do not realize it. In the great Buddhist text the Lotus Sutra, there is a striking parable that expresses this idea. A child leaves his home village and becomes a destitute young man. Years later, he comes upon his father, who has moved to a new city and become quite wealthy--but he doesn't recognize him. His father, however, recognizes the son, and sees his potential to become a great man. Slowly, his father trains him in the ways of maintaining the household, and slowly, the son gains confidence in himself. One day, having witnessed the son's growth in character, his father tells him, "From now on, you and I are to be no different." He reveals the truth of their family bond and bequeaths all his wealth to his son. We already are what we most deeply yearn for, and yet we need training to recognize this truth--such is the essence of the Zen spiritual path. Informed by a lifetime of practice, this mature reflection explores key aspects of Zen training--including the guidance of the teacher, the taking of precepts, the study of the mind, and the cultivation of compassion--through the lens of the parable of the destitute son. With insightful reflections on additional Zen stories, as well as the author's own life stories and memories of such legendary teachers as Shunryu Suzuki Roshi and Daini Katagiri Roshi, Nothing to Attain offers readers a new way of looking at their own spiritual path--not as a journey to a foreign destination but as a homecoming to the place we've always belonged. -

Voces del Pueblo: Artists of the Levantamiento Chicano in New Mexico
Long overdue art catalog for the New Mexican Chicano movement of the 1970s. Vibrant art by activist Chicanx creatives fills an enormous gap in the history of art from the movement that blossomed in the 1960s and 1970s. The decade between 1970 and 1980 marks an important period in the Chicana and Chicano Movement in New Mexico known simply as the movimiento. Artists from all over the state played important roles in the movement by providing art, participating in political discourse, and organizing actions. However, while some activists and organizers, such as Dolores Huerta, are known and celebrated nationally, most of these artists have gone unrecognized. Not only have they been overlooked in the art history and discourse of New Mexico, they have also gone unrecognized in the discussion of Chicano art history nationally. Voces del Pueblo begins to repair this gap in the history of the Chicana and Chicano art movement. Printed in color and black and white, the book showcases nearly two hundred images, including work by six New Mexico artists as well as historical photos of the movement. Readers will also find interviews with each of these artists and contextualizing essays by the cocurators of the National Hispanic Cultural Center exhibit, Ray Hernández-Durán and Irene Vásquez, as well as scholars, such as Phillip B. (Felipe) Gonzales, Howard Griego, and Sonja Elena Gandert. The result is an incomparable look at art history in New Mexico and the importance of New Mexican artists in the Chicana and Chicano Movement. -
Worst Fishing Dog Ever: And Other Essays
A heartfelt look at the state of modern fly-fishing and the challenges fishers will face in the coming decades. Ron Dungan, like many fly-fishers, can be obsessive. Although decades of fishing trips have led him to encounter snakes, bears, and treacherous terrain, his main focus is always the fish--how to find them, how to outsmart them, and how to hook them. In twenty-seven essays, Dungan takes us on a journey down bad roads and backcountry streams. Each tells a tale about fishing but also about hunting dogs, death, public-land policy, the trap of materialism, and accelerating environmental damage. This last becomes a new obsession. Fly-fishing in the arid Southwest has always been precarious, but how has fly-fishing changed, and what further impacts will climate change and resource extraction have? With his dog curled at his feet, Dungan attempts to unravel the tangled line of these hard questions.
