DOWNLOAD EBOOKA uniquely dark, coming-of-age novel rife with urban magical realism, love, and redemption, from the author of Bodega Dreams When Julio, a teenager living in Spanish Harlem, hears that Taina, a pregnant fifteen-year-old from his high school claims to be a virgin, he decides to believe her. Julio has a history of strange visions and his blind and unrequited love for Taina will unleash a whirlpool of emotions that will bring him to question his hard-working Puerto Rican mother and his communist Ecuadorian father, his beliefs and even the building blocks of modern science (after seeing the conception of Taina’s baby as a revolution in nature). After meeting Taína's uncle, "El Vejigante", an ex-con with a dark past, he accepts his proposal to support her during her pregnancy and becomes entangled in a web of crime that, while taking him closer to Taína, ultimately reveals a family secret that will not leave him unscathed.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn their exposé of Gen Z, The New York Times qualified its members as the “most diverse generation in American history". Recent Broadway hits have found a successful formula in productions showcasing the emotional turmoil of contemporary young people, yet the majority of these works represent predominantly white voices, both in terms of authorship and representation. Non-white characters tend to exist only in a world of colorblind casting rather than speaking to their distinct racial and cultural heritage. This anthology helps correct that balance and presents a unique offering of plays written for multicultural teenagers by diverse authors who have spent a significant part of their careers working closely with young people in urban settings. The playwrights - among them award winners such as Chisa Hutchinson and Nilaja Sun - have created texts that are dramatic and comic, satirical and earnest, touchingly real, and amusingly surreal. Varying in length and format, suitable for classrooms and youth groups of all sizes, the plays address such themes as ethnic and cultural identity; ancestry and assimilation; bullying and self-empowerment; disenfranchisement and alienation; parental pressure to over-achieve, youth activism and community-building; and the very real perils of daily school life in an era of gun proliferation.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFacebook has fundamentally changed how the world connects. No other company has played a greater role in the history of social networking online. Yet Facebook is no longer simply a social networking site or social media platform. Facebook is Facebook. Taina Bucher shows how Facebook has become an idea of its own: something that cannot be fully described using broader categories. Facebook has become so commonplace that most people have a conception of what it is, yet it increasingly defies categorization. If we want to understand Facebook's power in contemporary society and culture, Bucher argues, we need to start by challenging our widespread conception of what Facebook is. Tracing the development and evolution of Facebook as a social networking site, platform, infrastructure and advertising company, she invites readers to consider Facebook anew. Contrary to the belief that nobody uses Facebook anymore, Facebook has never been more powerful. This timely book is important reading for students and scholars of media and communication, as well as anyone seeking to understand the Facebook phenomenon.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThree of Urban Books’ bestsellers have joined forces to tell a sinful tale chronicling the lust, violence, and cunning of street life. Lust by Treasure Hernandez Amira James has always had everything she ever wanted: the home, the clothes, and the rich daddy. However, there was a fire deep inside of her that wanted more and more . . . and more. So when she stumbles across the entrance of an underground sex club, she welcomes the new kind of high. Secretly, out of the gaze of the watchful eye of her prominent lawyer father, Amira slips deeper and deeper into this new and exciting life, taking on the name Lust and enjoying every ride. However, when her father loses a big case, and his debt comes back to bite, it’s Amira who will end up with teeth marks. Greed by Katt Jamia Greedy is the niece of Jamaul Greedy, the leader of an organized crime group in Chicago. He’s the only father she’s ever known since her own father was mysteriously murdered when she was a child. Her lavish life comes to a halt when Jamaul is critically wounded and is put on life support. His son, Adron takes over the game. But when it becomes clear to Jamia that Adron doesn’t want her around, she begins to undo a web of lies weaved by the ones who are supposed to love her most. In the end, she learns that it’s her life in the middle of a fight fueled by greed and power. Can she make it out alive? Wrath by Marcus Weber Hell hath no fury like Candace “Wrath” Davis. Seeing her mother ruthlessly killed at the ripe age of ten turned her cold inside. After that, the streets were the only thing that kept her warm, especially with all of the blood on her hands. Some called her a monster, but the people who paid her to clean up their messes called her the Calvary. It isn’t until she rekindles the flame of an old love interest that she thinks of putting her guns down. However, everything that glitters isn’t gold. While she’s falling in love, someone else is just getting closer to their target.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThousands of years ago, Polynesian voyagers discovered and settled Nanumea atoll, a tiny cluster of coral islets in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The community prospered, first evolving into a traditional culture finely tuned to the atolls limited environment and then weathering new changes imposed by missionaries, colonial officials, and Westernization itself. Now one of eight separate island communities comprising the modern Pacific nation of Tuvalu, Nanumea faces new challenges: rising sea levels, globalization, and massive social and economic changes. Using personal stories that evoke the difficulties and excitement of fieldwork, Keith and Anne Chambers draw on more than twenty-five years of ethnographic research in Nanumea to craft an engaging account of Nanumean culture and social organization. Readers will come to appreciate how the communitys intense sharing obligations, service-oriented chieftainship, and a flexible system of extensive kinship reckoning define a lifestyle that differs fundamentally from modern Western society.
