The Power to Die

Slavery and Suicide in British North America

By: Terri L. Snyder

“[A] well-written exploration of the cultural and legal meanings of slave suicide in British North America . . . far-reaching, compelling, and relevant.” —Choice The history of slavery in early America is a history of suicide. On ships crossing the Atlantic, enslaved men and women refused to eat or leaped into the ocean. They strangled or hanged themselves. They tore open their own throats. In America, they jumped into rivers or out of windows, or even ran into burning buildings. Faced with the reality of enslavement, countless Africans chose death instead. In The Power to Die, Terri L. Snyder excavates the history of slave suicide, returning it to its central place in early American history. How did people—traders, plantation owners, and, most importantly, enslaved men and women themselves—view and understand these deaths, and how did they affect understandings of the institution of slavery then and now? Snyder draws on an array of sources, including ships’ logs, surgeons’ journals, judicial and legislative records, newspaper accounts, abolitionist propaganda and slave narratives to detail the ways in which suicide exposed the contradictions of slavery, serving as a powerful indictment that resonated throughout the Anglo-Atlantic world and continues to speak to historians today.

My Greenwich Village

Dave, Bob and Me

By: Terri Thal

Terri Thal was very much a part of the folk music world in 1960s Greenwich Village, New York. Few people know that she was 21-year-old Bob Dylan's first manager prior to his contract with Albert Grossman and Columbia Records. She also managed musician Dave Van Ronk (who was her husband), and others to include the Roche sisters, Paul Geremia and The Holy Modal Rounders. She booked performances at coffee houses, clubs and basket houses. On 6 September 1961, she recorded a set from a young Bob at The Gaslight Café – it is the first known live recording of his original songs - known to Dylan fans as the First Gaslight Tape! Terri took this 'audition' tape to clubs to try to get him gigs – and she still owns the original reel-to-reel tape! She had many friends in Greenwich Village including Suze Rotolo and a number of seminal 1960s folk musicians. When Dave Van Ronk first saw young Bob performing in a club in Greenwich Village he said 'I just heard this kid who's a fucking genius. You've got to hear him.' Within a few days I heard him play and agreed with Dave. Bob Dylan asked me, 'Would you get me gigs?' Terri Thal has two passions: folk music and social justice. This is a personal story of the world of folk music in 1960s New York written by a Jewish woman from Brooklyn who, although not a musician, was an intrinsic part of this scene. Terri describes Greenwich Village as a community that was supportive, musically exciting and one in which people had fun.Terri tells us what it was like to hang out in the Village coffee houses, to host folk singers like Tom Paxton and Phil Ochs who hung out at her apartment, and to be a manager. We hear her view and involvement of the 1960s socialist organizations, and how she later merged her professional work in not- for-profit agencies.

Banking on a Revolution

Banking on a Revolution

Why Financial Technology Won't Save a Broken System

By: Terri Friedline

The Revolution Will Not Be Financed takes the perspective that the financial system needs a revolution-and not the impending revolution driven by technology. Studying various ways the financial system advantages whites by exploiting and marginalizing Black and Brown communities, Terri Friedline challenges the optimistic belief that fintech can expand access to banking and finance. Friedline applies the lens of financialized racial neoliberal capitalism to demonstrate the financial system's inherent racism, and explores examples from student loan debt, corporate landlords, community benefits agreements, and banking and payday lending. She makes the case that the financial system needs a people-led revolution that centers the needs, experiences, and perspectives of those that it has historically excluded, marginalized, and exploited"--

A New Body in One Day

A Guide to Same-day Cosmetic Surgery Procedures

By: Robert A. Yoho,Judy Brandy-Yoho,Judith Brandy,Terri Mandell

Since 1991, the popularity of cosmetic surgery has more than doubled. Women visited cosmetic surgeons for more than one million treatments in 1995 alone. But it's not just women who enlist the help of cosmetic surgeons. The percentage of cosmetic procedures performed on men has increased from 10% to 24% since 1980. These numbers show that there is a need for information about how specific procedures are done, what the recovery is like, and what a patient can realistically expect. The technology has changed so radically in the last few years that for most procedures, hospital stays and general anesthesia are no longer mandatory. This is why this book -- unlike others -- specifically addresses surgeries which are done under local anesthetic in a doctor's office. The book is organized in a format that makes it easy for readers to locate the information they seek. One can simply look up liposuction for example, and learn about the preparation required, the actual method used, the recovery process, the result on can expect, and the possible complications. Each procedure is addressed and detailed in the same manner, which makes for a simple, easy-to-use reference format. Photographs of actual patients during the various stages of recovery, along with their comments, are included at the end of each procedure chapter. An easy-to-understand detailed guide to cosmetic surgery procedures that can be done in a doctor's office in one day, under local anesthetic. -- No other book on the market describes -- in the terminology understandable to the average consumer -- the step-by-step process involved in each procedure, the stages of recovery, and the variations in results -- National mediatour and professional speaking engagements
