Resilience for All
Author: Barbara Brown Wilson
Publisher: Island Press
ISBN: 1610918924
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
In the United States, people of color are disproportionally more likely to live in environments with poor air quality, in close proximity to toxic waste, and in locations more vulnerable to climate change and extreme weather events. In many vulnerable neighborhoods, structural racism and classism prevent residents from having a seat at the table when decisions are made about their community. In an effort to overcome power imbalances and ensure local knowledge informs decision-making, a new approach to community engagement is essential. In Resilience for All, Barbara Brown Wilson looks at less conventional, but often more effective methods to make communities more resilient. She takes an in-depth look at what equitable, positive change through community-driven design looks like in four communities—East Biloxi, Mississippi; the Lower East Side of Manhattan; the Denby neighborhood in Detroit, Michigan; and the Cully neighborhood in Portland, Oregon. These vulnerable communities have prevailed in spite of serious urban stressors such as climate change, gentrification, and disinvestment. Wilson looks at how the lessons in the case studies and other examples might more broadly inform future practice. She shows how community-driven design projects in underserved neighborhoods can not only change the built world, but also provide opportunities for residents to build their own capacities.

Right up until he broke her heart six years ago. Now that she's returned to Wyoming for good, what she wants more than anything is to save her family's ranch. Even if that means swallowing her pride and asking Dave to marry her. Matty's up to something - Dave knows that much. Just as he knows that Matty needs help, so of course he'll provide it, just as he has all her life. Doing what's best for Matty is second nature, and part of the cowboy code. Even when it comes to marrying her in name only. Although he can't resist one hot-blooded kiss after the I-dos of their marriage of convenience wedding. Maybe - just maybe - his Matty will become more to him than Almost a Bride. Wildflowers have to be strong and resilient to bloom amid the rugged western beauty of Wyoming - and so do the women.

Then, three years later, her "Paulo" shows up out of the blue at her home in Wyoming, speaking the perfect English of an American, and identifying himself as Daniel Delligati. He announces he's come for his son. . .and for her." - (From an Amazon review by Karen Templeton) Can they lift the curse that has haunted the Wyoming ranch they love?

“In Book 1 Bodie stole my heart, in Book 2 Cully took my breath away, and in Book 3 I fell in love with Dax.” – 5-star review THE BARDVILLE, WYOMING SERIES Three strangers arrive in Bardville, Wyoming. They’re never the same … And neither are the people of Bardville. Book 1: A STRANGER IN THE FAMILY A sexy, intriguing stranger arrives unexpectedly at her Wyoming ranch, threatening the one thing Cambria protects more fiercely than her heart — her family.

The sparks between him and Cambria are real … and so is the danger to his hopes for their future if she finds out why he’s really in Wyoming. Book 2: A STRANGER TO LOVE Jessa’s been a stranger to love for so long … Now, because she will not abandon a boy who is both trouble and troubled, she’s tied to this intense, stubborn man who arouses her in ways she’s never known … and who could break her completely. Can she take the risk that in this man she might find a stranger to love? Book 3: THE RANCHER MEETS HIS MATCH For his teenage son, Wyoming rancher Dax will do anything – even become a role model in the dating department. Enter the perfect stranger: an Easterner, visiting for just two weeks. But soon Hannah, no longer a stranger, becomes the greatest danger of all to a stubbornly solitary heart.

Book Description
Hollywood has had an off and on romance with the Bible -- thanks largely to Cecil B. DeMille whose ground-breaking silent picture "The King of Kings" has rarely been equalled for its faithfulness and fidelity, and certainly not in its dreadful re-make by producer Sam Bronston and director Nicholas Ray. This book examines both the hits and misses in the Bible stakes, as well as many other movies in which religion plays a major role, such as "The Garden of Allah", "Samson and Delilah", "The Silence of Dean Maitland", "Stars in My Crown", "Mary of Scotland" and "The Ten Commandments".
