Mariah Sullivan is a tattoo-wearing, bruise-covered, kick-ass roller derby girl who doesn't put up with people who mistreat others. Her fierce exterior masks a woman who is loving, compassionate and deeply loyal to those she loves. Adam Barnett Jr. is a dentist like his father. He has come to Austin to take over his father's dental practice while he recuperates from an accident. The timing couldn't have worked better for Adam, who just broke off his wedding engagement to a woman he thought was perfect, both inside and out. He meets Mariah at her regular dental appointment. She is interested, willing to put aside her normal reticence and give him a chance. Adam, however, assumes the worst about her, given her black eye and the bruises on her arm. He assumes that she is the victim of some form of abuse and he approaches her in an attempt to help her seek help. But Mariah, with assistance from Adam's father, has a thing or two to teach him about making assumptions. As they spend time together and get to know each other they find sex, friendship, and eventually love.

As she prepares for the next upcoming competition, she finds out that her spot has been given to Will Nakene, the new eco-friendly kid on the block. Swayed by his home's sustainable construction and adjacent Japanese-inspired backyard garden, the committee taps Will for what they hope is another victory, with Katrina's assistance, putting her in an even more awkward spot since she had tried her womanly charms on him with little success at a recent New Years Even party. Swallowing her pride and recognizing that she doesn't hold the required qualifications to be a filly in his stable of beauties, Katrina begins to blossom before Will's eyes, exposing a kind of beauty he had yet to find in a female companion. As Will's interest and desire in her increases, Katrina fights the same urges, worried that a relationship between them could never work out. Will's persistence pays off, and the eventually bring their friendship to the next level, but their love is threatened by Katrina's insecurity, created by a childhood filled with abandonment, loneliness and a feeling of unworthiness. Through compassion, determination and love, Will proves to Katrina that their love can steady any storm.

A Chain of Events

A Black Woman’S Perspective on Our Rise to Prominence from Slavery to the White House

By: Ruthie Green

In October 2011, a ceremony was held at the Washington, DC mall to unveil a granite statue of our slain Civil Rights leader, Rev. MLK, Jr. The large piece of granite was 30 feet high and a light reddish-brown in color. It looked majestic in the sunlight. The King family members participating in the ceremony were his sister and three of his children. They were all very dynamic speakers and that makes me think that public speaking was a family trait. Some of the other speakers that day were also present during the early days of the Civil Rights movement. They were Andrew Young, Julian Bond and Rev. Joseph Lowery. Rev. Lowery was 90 years old and the tears flowed freely as he spoke. It was overwhelming for him and me to witness the final moments of a movement that had started in 1955 in Montgomery, AL. For the Black man, the road had been long and definitely rough, but we had stayed on our course. Also at times, our footsteps toward Freedom were slow, but by Gods Grace we were able to reach our goal. For years, we could not say that America was our country or proudly call America our Home, Sweet Home. But after seeing a statue of a Black man with a flat nose and thick lips standing among the memorials of past U.S. Presidents in the DC mall made us realize that only a loving and caring God could have orchestrated such a feat. Now, I will use the phrase that the Evangelist, Joel Osteen usesPut your trust in God and He will take you places that you NEVER dreamed of.

From Peonage to Poverty

Disability Servitude

From Peonage to Poverty

By: Ruthie-Marie Beckwith

Disability Servitude traces the history and legacy of institutional peonage. For over a century, public and private institutions across the country relied on the unpaid, forced labor of their residents and patients in order to operate. This book describes the work they performed, in some cases for ten or more hours a day, seven days a week, and the lawsuits they brought in an effort to get paid. The impact of those lawsuits included accelerated de-institutionalization, but they fell short of obtaining equal and fair compensation for their plaintiffs. Instead, thousands of resident and patient-workers were replaced by non-disabled employees. Disability Servitude includes a detailed history of longstanding problems with the oversight of the sub-minimum wage provision in the Fair Labor Standards Act oversight. Beckwith shows how that history has resulted in the continued segregation and exploitation of over 400,000 workers with disabilities in sheltered workshops that legally pay far less than minimum wage.

I Smoke Pot with My Family

Speaking Up At 85

By: Ruthie Bergner

In her revealing book I Smoke Pot with My Family, 85-year-old Ruth Bergner speaks out about the valuable and positive experiences she began having with just one puff of marijuana. 'Try it so you know what the hell you are talking about," her valedictorian son challenged in 1970. Ruthie and her husband were surprised to discover that, contrary to what they 'knew" about pot, the drug actually enhanced many areas of their lives instead of interfering. Excited about what she was experiencing, she began to write a book. Reluctant and fearful of what the expos could do to her family's name, she kept it hidden beneath her bathroom sink. Now, after more than thirty years of personal experience and secrecy, Bergner hopes to make an important contribution to the world by sharing her story. She insists that we control the drug; it doesn't control us. She writes that when used intelligently and responsibly, marijuana can promote comfortable intimacy, improve family relationships, dissipate anger and judgment, temporarily erase sexual hang-ups, make us less defensive, and give us a fresh perspective on life. Bergner wants marijuana reclassified from the 'bad drug" category to the 'good drug" category. She calls on other respectable people who smoke pot to stand up, speak out and smoke responsibly with her. 'Bergner's honesty.is one more step up the ladder to removing the lid of misinformation and dishonesty about (marijuana). She is, indeed, one brave pioneer."-Wayne B. Whitmarsh, Medicinal Cannabis/Industrial Hemp Advocate '(Bergner's) coming out makes it easier for the next person to do the same."-Keith Stroup, Founder of NORML

Possessed Voices

Aural Remains from Modernist Hebrew Theater

By: Ruthie Abeliovich

Finalist for the 2020 Jordan Schnitzer Book Award in the category of Jews and the Arts: Music, Performance, and Visual presented by the Association for Jewish Studies Possessed Voices tells the intriguing story of a largely unknown collection of audio recordings, which preserve performances of modernist interwar Hebrew plays. Ruthie Abeliovich focuses on four recordings: a 1931 recording of The Eternal Jew (1919/1923), a 1965 recording of The Dybbuk (1922), a 1961 radio play of The Golem (1925), and a 1952 radio play of Yaakov and Rachel (1928). Abeliovich traces the spoken language of modernist Hebrew theater as grounded in multiple modalities of expressive practices, including spoken Hebrew, Jewish liturgical sensibilities supplemented by Yiddish intonation and other vernacular accents, and in relation to prevalent theatrical forms. The book shows how these recorded performances provided Jewish immigrants from Europe with a venue for lamenting the decline of their home communities and for connecting their memories to the present. Analyzing sonic material against the backdrop of its artistic, cultural, and ideological contexts, Abeliovich develops a critical framework for the study of sound as a discipline in its own right in theater scholarship.

Surviving a Narcissist

Today I begin to share my testimony, my truth, my story of how a season of my life I had to first love and live with a narcissist. Second, I had to know and understand the narcissist. Third, and more importantly, I had to learn to survive the narcissist. There were so many warning signs, and the longer I ignored what my gut, eyes, and ears were telling me, the more I began to talk myself into why I should stay in the relationship and why he needed me.
