Canadian Justice, Indigenous Injustice: The Gerald Stanley and Colten Boushie Case
Par Kent Roach. 2019
In August 2016 Colten Boushie, a twenty-two-year-old Cree man from Red Pheasant First Nation, was fatally shot on a Saskatchewan…
farm by white farmer Gerald Stanley. In a trial that bitterly divided Canadians, Stanley was acquitted of both murder and manslaughter by a jury in Battleford with no visible Indigenous representation. In Canadian Justice, Indigenous Injustice Kent Roach critically reconstructs the Gerald Stanley/Colten Boushie case to examine how it may be a miscarriage of justice. Roach provides historical, legal, political, and sociological background to the case including misunderstandings over crime when Treaty 6 was negotiated, the 1885 hanging of eight Indigenous men at Fort Battleford, the role of the RCMP, prior litigation over Indigenous underrepresentation on juries, and the racially charged debate about defence of property and rural crime. Drawing on both trial transcripts and research on miscarriages of justice, Roach looks at jury selection, the controversial “hang fire” defence, how the credibility and beliefs of Indigenous witnesses were challenged on the stand, and Gerald Stanley's implicit appeals to self-defence and defence of property, as well as the decision not to appeal the acquittal. Concluding his study, Roach asks whether Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's controversial call to “do better” is possible, given similar cases since Stanley's, the difficulty of reforming the jury or the RCMP, and the combination of Indigenous underrepresentation on juries and overrepresentation among those victimized and accused of crimes. Informed and timely, Canadian Justice, Indigenous Injustice is a searing account of one case that provides valuable insight into criminal justice, racism, and the treatment of Indigenous peoples in Canada.Racial emotion at work: Dismantling discrimination and building racial justice in the workplace
Par Tristin Green. 2023
This timely book unravels race and emotion in the workplace-exploring why racial emotion is often left out of equity conversations…
and why we must confront it. Racial Emotion at Work is an invitation to understand our own emotions and associated behaviors around race-and much more. With this surprising and timely book, Tristin K. Green takes us beyond diversity trainings and other individualized solutions to discrimination and inequality in employment, calling for sweeping changes in how the law and work organizations treat and shape racial emotions. Green provides listeners with the latest research on racial emotions in interracial interactions and ties this research to thinking about discrimination and disadvantage at work. We see how our racial emotions can result in discrimination, and how our institutions-the law and work organizations-value and skew our racial emotions in ways that place the brunt of negative consequences on people of color. It turns out we need to reset our institutional and not just our personal radars on racial emotion to advance racial justice. Racial Emotion at Work shows how we can rise to the taskLoger à la même adresse (Réparation)

à l'inversion de la pyramide d'âge, à l'isolement des personnes vivant seules, on ne résoudra pas la crise du logement uniquement en bâtissant de nouvelles habitations, parce que l'enjeu est plus complexe qu'un simple manque de pieds carrés.

Par Faclm Michael. 2023
This program is read by the author. Uncover the evidence-based science to slowing the effects of aging, from the New…
York Times bestselling author of the How Not to Die series When Dr. Michael Greger, founder of NutritionFacts.org, dove into the top peer-reviewed anti-aging medical research, he realized that diet could regulate every one of the most promising strategies for combating the effects of aging. We don't need Big Pharma to keep us feeling young—we already have the tools. In How Not to Age , the internationally renowned physician and nutritionist breaks down the science of aging and chronic illness and explains how to help avoid the diseases most commonly encountered in our journeys through life. Physicians have long treated aging as a malady, but getting older does not have to mean getting sicker. There are eleven pathways for aging in our bodies' cells and we can disrupt each of them. Processes like autophagy, the upcycling of unusable junk, can be boosted with spermidine, a compound found in tempeh, mushrooms, and wheat germ. Senescent "zombie" cells that spew inflammation and are linked to many age-related diseases may be cleared in part with quercetin-rich foods like onions, apples, and kale. And we can combat effects of aging without breaking the bank. Why spend a small fortune on vitamin C and nicotinamide facial serums when you can make your own for up to 2,000 times cheaper? Inspired by the dietary and lifestyle patterns of centenarians and residents of "blue zone" regions where people live the longest, Dr. Greger presents simple, accessible, and evidence-based methods to preserve the body functions that keep you feeling youthful, both physically and mentally. Brimming with expertise and actionable takeaways, How Not to Age lays out practical strategies for achieving ultimate longevityThe lost supper: Searching for the future of food in the flavors of the past
Par Taras Grescoe. 2023
The world can't sustain the way we eat today. Whether it's ultra-processed oils, factoryfarmed meat, or monoculture wheat, industrial agriculture…
has increasingly dire consequences for the vibrancy of our plates, health, and planet. While some look to high tech solutions, like lab-grown meat or transgenic produce, Taras Grescoe argues that the future of our food lies in the diversity of the past. In The Lost Supper, Grescoe searches for the fascinating flavors, many forgotten or on the verge of extinction, that tell the stories of civilizations: "Aztec caviar" from a vanishing lake in Mexico; garum, the secret umami ingredient of Ancient Roman cuisine; acorn-fed feral pigs on one of Georgia's barrier islands; and camas, a staple of Northwest Coast Indigenous Peoples. He chronicles a growing movement of archaeologists, farmers, and food producers who are unearthing and reviving the nourishing, delicious, and sustainable foods of the past—from Neolithic sourdough and farmhouse cheese to wild olives and long-thought extinct plants—along with chefs and enthusiasts who are bringing history alive in their own kitchens. A deep dive into the archaeology of taste and an impassioned manifesto for the future of food, The Lost Supper sets out a provocative case: in order to save ourselves, we need to think—and eat—much more like our ancestors did
