Trapped by History

The Indigenous-State Relationship in Australia

By: Darryl Cronin

The Australian nation has reached an impasse in Indigenous policy and practice and fresh strategies and perspectives are required. Trapped by History highlights a fundamental issue that the Australian nation must confront to develop a genuine relationship with Indigenous Australians. The existing relationship between Indigenous people and the Australian state was constructed on the myth of an empty land – terra nullius. Interactions with Indigenous people have been constrained by eighteenth-century assumptions and beliefs that Indigenous people did not have organised societies, had neither land ownership nor a recognisable form of sovereignty, and that they were ‘savage’ but could be ‘civilized’ through the erasure of their culture. These incorrect assumptions and beliefs are the foundation of the legal, constitutional and political treatment of Indigenous Australians over the course of the country’s history. They remain ingrained in governmental institutions, Indigenous policy making, judicial decision making and contemporary public attitudes about Indigenous people. Trapped by History shines new light upon historical and contemporary examples where Indigenous people have attempted to engage and dialogue with state and federal governments. These governments have responded by trying to suppress and discredit Indigenous rights, culture and identities and impose assimilationist policies. In doing so they have rejected or ignored Indigenous attempts at dialogue and partnership. Other settler countries such as New Zealand, Canada and the United States of America have all negotiated treaties with Indigenous people and have developed constitutional ways of engaging cross culturally. In Australia, the limited recognition that Indigenous people have achieved to date shows that the state is unable to resolve long standing issues with Indigenous people. Movement beyond the current colonial relationship with Indigenous Australians requires a genuine dialogue to not only examine the legal and intellectual framework that constrains Indigenous recognition but to create new foundations for a renewed relationship based on intercultural negotiation, mutual respect, sharing and mutual responsibility. This must involve building a shared understanding around addressing past injustices and creating a shared vision for how Indigenous people and other Australians will associate politically in the future.

Dear Cisco, Dear Keith

A Frat Brother's Letters On God, His Love, His People, And Their Struggles

By: Darryl L. Fortson, MD

In the fall of 2007, a fraternity man of Christian faith and a physician traveled back to his college alma mater after a long hiatus to celebrate his college homecoming. He encountered the usual old friends and heard and told stories from the frat house of a generation past. But something else happened in the midst of the Homecoming parade, the football game, the tailgate party, and the memories—the man of faith kept talking about God, and everybody kept talking about God to him. With music blaring in the nightclub and people partying all around, one of those fraternity brothers said to that man of faith, “you need to write a book.” They called that “Bruh” (short for “brother”) Cisco, and so it is to Cisco and to the author’s former medical school roommate, fraternity brother, and best friend since childhood, Keith, that this book is written. Dear Cisco, Dear Keith: A Frat Brother’s Letters On God, His Love, His People, And Their Struggles authored by the emerging exhorter of the Christian faith, Darryl L. Fortson, MD, is a compelling collection of letters on the relevance of God’s Holy Word in everyday life. Combining Holy Scripture with a down-to-earth and sometimes comical literary style, Dr. Fortson addresses an eclectic range of topics from faith to Viagra, from abortion to surgery, and from prayer to the “N-word” in a way that is bereft of pretense but full of power. Dear Cisco, Dear Keith is a concise but powerful read that will cause you to look at the mundane experiences, as Dr. Fortson puts it, “upside-in” and “outside down,” seeing God’s hand and guidance right where we stand, and helping us to humbly answer the question for ourselves: What does God have to do with my everyday life?

Occupancy Estimation and Modeling

Inferring Patterns and Dynamics of Species Occurrence

By: Darryl I. MacKenzie,James D. Nichols,J. Andrew Royle,Kenneth H. Pollock,Larissa Bailey,James E. Hines

Occupancy Estimation and Modeling: Inferring Patterns and Dynamics of Species Occurrence, Second Edition, provides a synthesis of model-based approaches for analyzing presence-absence data, allowing for imperfect detection. Beginning from the relatively simple case of estimating the proportion of area or sampling units occupied at the time of surveying, the authors describe a wide variety of extensions that have been developed since the early 2000s. This provides an improved insight about species and community ecology, including, detection heterogeneity; correlated detections; spatial autocorrelation; multiple states or classes of occupancy; changes in occupancy over time; species co-occurrence; community-level modeling, and more. Occupancy Estimation and Modeling: Inferring Patterns and Dynamics of Species Occurrence, Second Edition has been greatly expanded and detail is provided regarding the estimation methods and examples of their application are given. Important study design recommendations are also covered to give a well rounded view of modeling. - Provides authoritative insights into the latest in occupancy modeling - Examines the latest methods in analyzing detection/no detection data surveys - Addresses critical issues of imperfect detectability and its effects on species occurrence estimation - Discusses important study design considerations such as defining sample units, sample size determination and optimal effort allocation

In Remembrance of Emmett Till

Regional Stories and Media Responses to the Black Freedom Struggle

By: Darryl Mace

In Remembrance of Emmett Till

Regional Stories and Media Responses to the Black Freedom Struggle

By: Darryl Mace

This provocative study explores how media coverage of Emmett Till’s murder influences regional reactions and reignited the Civil Rights movement. On August 28, 1955, fourteen-year-old Chicago native Emmett Till was brutally beaten to death for allegedly flirting with a white woman at a grocery store in Money, Mississippi. Roy Bryant and J. W. Milam were acquitted of Till’s murder—then admitted to the crime in an interview with the national media. They were never convicted. Although Till's body was mutilated, his mother ordered that his casket remain open so that the country could observe the results of racially motivated violence in the Deep South. Media attention fanned the flames of regional tension and impelled many individuals—including Rosa Parks—to become vocal activists for racial equality. In this innovative study, Darryl Mace explores media coverage of Till's murder and analyses its influence on the regional and racial perspectives. He investigates the portrayal of the trial in popular and black newspapers across the South, documents posttrial reactions, and examines Till's memorialization in the press to highlight the media's role in shaping opinions.

This Day In Comedy

The Ethnic Encyclopedia of Laughter

By: Frank Holder,Darryl Littleton

On This Day in Comedy is not just an encyclopedia, but a celebration of comedy. In humorous prose the book takes readers through the often-neglected subcultures of comedy in America, acknowledging the inclusiveness of the performers as well as shows and films that made this art form so vital to comics of all backgrounds. It's artistically criminal that a search for Native American or Asian comedy information yields a virtually blank slate. Look for Middle Eastern comics and you'll be provided information on the region's comic book revolution, and search results for Latin comedy are confined to a series of outdated articles. This encyclopedia will offer rare and in some cases never-before-seen photos and obscure facts, making it an indispensable comedy essential.
