Book Description
It is through their music that the Indigo Girls build upon the theological idea of community-building and solidarity-forming, in order to tell the stories, to relate the authentic experience of human struggle and reconciliation, of human love and pain. Further, they work outward, convicted that their music and songwriting is an avenue to speak truth to power. All of this serves as theological reflection worked out in public and vocal forms of prophetic denunciation and proclamation. Their songs take on this prophetic tone of denunciation—speaking against oppression, inequality, and injustice. Moreover, their music does not remain complacent in the critique; through their songwriting they participate in prophetic proclamation—envisioning alternative ways of being, contributing to the collective imagination of contexts of equality, peace, and human freedom.

Book Description
*Newbery Honor Book* *Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor* A nuanced and fierce middle grade novel about sisterhood and sexual abuse, by two-time Newbery Honor winner and #1 New York Times best seller Kimberly Brubaker Bradley, author of The War that Saved My Life "Fighting Words is raw, it is real, it is necessary, a must-read for children and their adults—a total triumph in all ways." —Holly Goldberg Sloan, New York Times bestselling author of Counting by 7s Ten-year-old Della has always had her older sister, Suki: When their mom went to prison, Della had Suki. When their mom's boyfriend took them in, Della had Suki. When that same boyfriend did something so awful they had to run fast, Della had Suki. Suki is Della's own wolf--her protector. But who has been protecting Suki? Della might get told off for swearing at school, but she has always known how to keep quiet where it counts. Then Suki tries to kill herself, and Della's world turns so far upside down, it feels like it's shaking her by the ankles. Maybe she's been quiet about the wrong things. Maybe it's time to be loud. In this powerful novel that explodes the stigma around child sexual abuse and leavens an intense tale with compassion and humor, Kimberly Brubaker Bradley tells a story about two sisters, linked by love and trauma, who must find their own voices before they can find their way back to each other. "Della’s matter-of-fact narration manages to be as funny and charming as it is devastatingly sad. . . . This is a novel about trauma [but] more than that, it’s a book about resilience, strength and healing. For every young reader who decides to wait . . . there will be others for whom this is the exact book they need right now." —New York Times Book Review "One of the most important books ever written for kids."—Colby Sharp of Nerdy Book Club "One for the history books."—Betsy Bird for A Fuse #8 Production/SLJ "Gripping.

Book Description
“Fighting!” When Music Lights Up the Darkness. Bong Until yesterday, I was an idol in a K-pop boy band at the peak of its fame. My life was a kaleidoscope of lights, music, and adrenaline—until everything changed. Now I’m walking the silent corridors of a hospital, fighting the toughest battle of my life, far from the clamor and affection of friends and fans. I hide behind a mask, concealing my true identity from those who once cheered for me. But the weight of my secret grows each day, as I even keep my struggle hidden from Yoo, my bandmate and dearest friend. Simultaneously, I’m experiencing new feelings for him; feelings which seem impossible to embrace at such a dark and difficult time. Yoo My mind is filled with Bong, especially since he’s been gone. It’s almost as if he’s still beside me on stage, where we once danced together, while now I’m moving without him. Bong’s light has dimmed in our world, leaving a void that I try to fill with music. But there’s a question that haunts me: where has he gone? His absence is a weight on my heart, a mystery that obsesses me. I continue to shine under the spotlight but my soul longs for his return––for the return of our lost unity. Our story is a dance between light and shadow, a journey through secrets and silence. A bond that extends beyond fame and success, testing our love and resilience. This is the pulsing heart of “Fighting!” a narrative that captures the soul, showing two beings bound by music and life as they face their greatest challenge together. “Fighting!” is a battle cry, and an anthem to hope and the inner strength that unites us in our darkest moments.
