A key to these abbreviations is on pp. 128/129. Saturday Evening, August 6 1. The New England Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends gathered on Saturday evening, August 6, 2011 for its 351st Annual Sessions at Bryant University in Smithfield, RI, singing as we entered. Out of gathered worship, the clerk, Linda Jenkins (NSan), welcomed all to this, our celebration at the ending of our 350th year . 2. Members of the clerks’ table were introduced: Linda Jenkins, presiding clerk; Rebecca Leuchak (Prov) and Brian Drayton (Weare), recording clerks; Frances Brokaw (Han), and Will Jennings (BHill), reading clerks. 3. In her welcome, the clerk reminded us that this week together our theme is 350 Years of New England Friends: Called to Heal a Broken Earth . We recognize the num- ber 350 is shorthand for our crisis condition: human behavior has taken us past the point of no return. It will take a miracle to recover the condition of the earth that our human conduct has brought. She said that this is our cross: 350 represents the parts per million of carbon dioxide in the air that allows the earth to be as most of us knew it as children. Three hundred fifty is also the number of years we have been a faith community in New England . That is our joy . And both bring us to the spirit . Two hundred fifty of us began our celebration of 350 years of New England Friends on Friday, with singing and waiting worship at the Great Meetinghouse in Newport .

  • The Sexual Politics of Meat by Carol J. Adams
    THE SEXUAL POLITICS OF MEAT A FEMINISTVEGETARIAN CRITICAL THEORY Praise for The Sexual Politics of Meat and Carol J. Adams “A clearheaded scholar joins the ideas of two movements—vegetari- anism and feminism—and turns them into a single coherent and moral theory. Her argument is rational and persuasive. New ground—whole acres of it—is broken by Adams.” —Colman McCarthy, Washington Post Book World “Th e Sexual Politics of Meat examines the historical, gender, race, and class implications of meat culture, and makes the links between the prac tice of butchering/eating animals and the maintenance of male domi nance. Read this powerful new book and you may well become a vegetarian.” —Ms. “Adams’s work will almost surely become a ‘bible’ for feminist and pro gressive animal rights activists. Depiction of animal exploita- tion as one manifestation of a brutal patriarchal culture has been explored in two [of her] books, Th e Sexual Politics of Meat and Neither Man nor Beast: Feminism and the Defense of Animals. Adams argues that factory farming is part of a whole culture of oppression and insti- tutionalized violence. Th e treatment of animals as objects is parallel to and associated with patriarchal society’s objectifi cation of women, blacks, and other minorities in order to routinely exploit them. Adams excels in constructing unexpected juxtapositions by using the language of one kind of relationship to illuminate another. Employing poetic rather than rhetorical techniques, Adams makes powerful connec- tions that encourage readers to draw their own conclusions.” —Choice “A dynamic contribution toward creating a feminist/animal rights theory.” —Animals’ Agenda “A cohesive, passionate case linking meat-eating to the oppression of animals and women .

  • Exercises Final Edit
    _______________________________________________________ THE SIMPLICITY EXERCISES A SOURCEBOOK FOR SIMPLICITY EDUCATORS Mark A Burch Simplicity Institute Report 12k, 2012 SPECIAL ISSUE ____________________ SIMPLICITY INSTITUTE PRAISE FOR THE SIMPLICITY EXERCISES: Mark Burch is the real deal—it’s evident from The Simplicity Exercises that he’s spent a lifetime integrating simple living principles into his own life, and luckily for the rest of us, has developed and honed exercises to help others do the same. Seasoned voluntary simplicity facilitators will appreciate how thorough and well-presented these activities are. In fact, the material is so well-thought out that informal educators new to simple living could use Mark’s book with confidence. If you’re ready to change your game plan or help others do so, this book ofers real transformative opportunities. C. Jones, M. Div., Adult Educator and Simple Living Enthusiast Refraining from adding to the critique of current social, economic and ecological challenges, Burch makes a notable shift towards positive social transformation, opting to share the rewards and potentials of simple living with others rather than additional criticism and analysis of contemporary problems. … The sourcebook is therefore an important and valuable resource for all educators or individuals interested in exploring simplicity further,.. Natalie Swayze, Research Associate, Centre for Indigenous Science Education, The University of Winnipeg In The Simplicity Exercises, Burch provides us with a path through that mental barrier [to transformative change] with comprehensive and well-thought-out group thought- experiments and exercises. Drawing from years of real-world experience, the book provides us a path beyond fear, critique and common despair-ridden questions about how to move forward to solve the challenges of our time.

Read, Ph. D., Dean, Graduate School May, 2013 i Abstract A centenarian Basque soccer club, Athletic Club (Bilbao) is the ethnographic locus of this dissertation. From a center of the Industrial Revolution, a major European port of capitalism and the birthplace of Basque nationalism and political violence, Bilbao turned into a post-Fordist paradigm of globalization and gentrification. Beyond traditional axes of identification that create social divisions, what unites Basques in Bizkaia province is a soccer team with a philosophy unique in the world of professional sports: Athletic only recruits local Basque players. Playing local becomes an important source of subjectivization and collective identity in one of the best soccer leagues (Spanish) of the most globalized game of the world. This dissertation takes soccer for a cultural performance that reveals relevant anthropological and sociological information about Bilbao, the province of Bizkaia, and the Basques. Early in the twentieth century, soccer was established as the hegemonic sports culture in Spain and in the Basque Country; it has become a multi- billion business, and it serves as a powerful political apparatus and symbolic capital.

  • Vegetarianismamong
    The Society ofofEnglish English Studies l45 Vegetarianism among Quakers through History Tomoko YAMAGUCHI I) Introduction Thesc days many people are becoming concerned their health, and are getting interested in playing sports or reyiewing their life style, especially their way of eating. Because it involves one of our most basic bodily needs, eating could be said to be one of the most important and fundamentai matters in our daily life. One of the ways achieving a health life style, living only on vegetables, Vegetarianism, has been practiced for many years and continues today. Of course this practice contains several concerns such as health, peace, preservation of animals, religious matters, and so forth. Vegetarianism was also practiced by some Quakers in earlier days. Now they have a special pamphlet, the Friendly Vegetarian. It seems that interest in Vegetarianisrn has come to be more popular than bcfore among Quakers, I am interested in what QuakeTs think about their dieting life style, as a whole, religiously as well as spiritually. Their ways of thinking on their dieting life style is related to the idea of an ecological environment. In this I am to discusshow paper, going Quakers have advocated the natural way ef eating, and its connection with the histerical movement of vegetarianism. In addition, I invcstigated how Quakers, considering their health, have tried to continue eating well. II) The Historical Background of Quakers The rnovement of started Quakerism in 1652, yet the ideas were first preached by George Fox in 1647. His main philosophical ideas are described in one of the Quakers' "His cookbooks, Quaker Ftavors, A Cookbooh published by Williston Friends Meeting: `that `Light' `Christ centrar thought was of God', a oT within' every man; that the Divine Being epcrates directly upon the human life and the spiritual life begins when the individual becomes aware and sets himself to obey Him."

A revision and expansion of La Fountain-Strokes’ Ph.D. dissertation, Queer Ricans explores the “sexile” (“sexual exile”) experience of first-generation queer Puerto Ricans living on the island, as compared to that of second- and third-generation Puerto Rican LGBTQ immigrants residing within the continental United States. Following a “historical (chronological), spatial, and generational model” of analysis (p. xxiv), La Fountain-Strokes begins with an assessment of the culture and politics of “island-born” (p. xxiv) and raised queer Puerto Ricans in the 1960s, continuing with a look at queer cultural production by second-generation Puerto Rican LGBTQ immigrants who escape to the continental U.S.
