Book Description
I didn't know what to expect when the time came for me to go on stage. An attendant with a clipboard and wearing headphones came out to get us one by one in the waiting room as if we were awaiting a Golden Ticket opportunity that may never come. I see cameramen around me, and I am always on the lookout to see if I can spot Giovanni from among those holding a microphone or balancing a Steadicam, but I haven't seen him all morning. Though I know what to sing, it would seem as though I don't know how to dress. The other women still in the waiting room with me are all dolled up from head to toe. Thick make-up. Fake eyelashes. Freshly painted nails. Curls trapped under layers of hairspray. And here I am with my jeans and basic heels, a green tank top sporting a large butterfly design. My hair is straight and parted off to the side. I did my own make-up though it looks like my competition hired professionals to do theirs. The woman stands at the doorway and shouts my name. She then escorts me to the main Studio down the hall and to the right. The production workers hardly pay attention to me as I enter from stage left. "Wait for your cue," she instructs. "And let's welcome to the stage, Brooke Evans!" I hear the voice of the show's host over the loudspeaker.

Book Description
It has been well-established that many of the injustices that people around the world experience every day, from food insecurity to unsafe labor conditions and natural disasters, are the result of wide-scale structural problems of politics and economics. These are not merely random personal problems or consequences of bad luck or bad planning. Confronted by this fact, it is natural to ask what should or can we do to mitigate everyday injustices? In one sense, we answer this question when we buy the local homeless street newspaper, decide where to buy our clothes, remember our reusable bags when we shop, donate to disaster relief, or send letters to corporations about labor rights. But given the global scale of injustices related to poverty, environmental change, gender, and labor, can these individual acts really impact the seemingly intractable global social, political, and economic structures that perpetuate and exacerbate them? Moreover, can we respond to injustices in the world in ways that do more than just address their consequences? In this book, Brooke A. Ackerly both answers the question of what should we do, and shows that it's the wrong question to ask. To ask the right question, we need to ground our normative theory of global justice in the lived experience of injustice. Using a feminist critical methodology, she argues that what to do about injustice is not just an ethical or moral question, but a political question about assuming responsibility for injustice, regardless of our causal responsibility and extent of our knowledge of the injustice. Furthermore, it is a matter that needs to be guided by principles of human rights. As she argues, while many understand human rights as political goals or entitlements, they can also guide political strategy. Her aims are twofold: to present a theory of what it means to take responsibility for injustice and for ensuring human rights, as well as to develop a guide for how to take responsibility in ways that support local and global movements for transformative politics. In order to illustrate her theory and guide for action, Ackerly draws on fieldwork on the Rana Plaza collapse in 2013, the food crisis of 2008, and strategies from 125 activist organizations working on women's and labor rights across 26 countries. Just Responsibility integrates these ways of taking political responsibility into a rich theory of political community, accountability, and leadership in which taking responsibility for injustice itself transforms the fabric of political life.

Book Description
As the ambulance sped out of the school parking lot, rumors at Bethany High School were going rampart. The third-hour class bell had just rung and kids were streaming out of their classes. The ambulance's flashing lights and siren could be seen and heard as it transported Doug to Bethany Memorial Hospital. "I heard it was Doug Thomas. I think he is stoned," one student remarked. "We heard he was DEAD!" two sophomores said in agreement. "This won't be the first time Doug has been stoned, but it could be his last time!" a third student chimed into the conversation. Students stood stunned at the event taking place in their school. Students had been aware that Doug and some of his friends had bragged about doing drugs from time to time, but this was bringing a reality to the student body. ********* Lesam and Lejoy, invisible to the surrounding individuals, sat on the top of the lockers in Bethany High. These Ministering Angels sadly heard all the conversations about Doug. They watch solemnly as the students filed into their fourth-hour classes. "Lesam, this is happening more and more often! I feel so helpless for these unsuspecting teens. They have no idea that they are in the middle of a 'Spiritual Battle' between good and evil." Lejoy wiped a tear from her eye. "If only our commands would come down from the Lord." "You know, as Ministering Angels, we are not allowed to intervene until we are directed by God," Lesam lamented. "We have our new Charges, Lesam. We must focus on God's commands for the Stevenson family, now," Lejoy stated. They both sat silently, as the halls began once again to become void of students. The fourth-hour tardy bell rang.
