Thriving Postpartum: Embracing the Indigenous Wisdom of La Cuarentena
by Pānquetzani
$19.99*ships in 7 - 10 business days*
From ancestral healing expert Pānquetzani comes traditional Indigenous wisdom for helping women thrive in, rather than merely survive, the postpartum experience.
Though we now have more resources for ancestral birthing and self-care practices than ever, postpartum care is still largely stuck in an outdated, patriarchal paradigm that fails to serve mothers and newborns. “Slowing down, recovering fully, and giving your baby the best start isn’t a privilege―it’s a basic human need,” says Pānquetzani, a leading expert in Indigenous health care for women. In Thriving Postpartum, she shares the sacred ritual of la cuarentena (or quarantine) that honors, nurtures, and empowers a birthing person’s transition into their new life. Here, you’ll find guidance on:
• Herbal recipes and 25 yerbas for postpartum healing
• Newborn and immediate postpartum care
• Sacred foods in la cuarentena
• Bodywork
• Your emotional body in la cuarentena
• Sex, pleasure, and intimacy postpartumPānquetzani teaches this 40-day journey as a spiritual rite of passage, one that has endured colonization and supported women in Mesoamerican, Mexican, and Central American communities. She shares everything you’ll need―from ancestral recipes for lactation and replenishing, to prayers and somatic practices for physical, emotional, and sexual recovery. Through traditional stories and practical guidance, she also helps you engage your support network, become your own best advocate, and lay a healthy foundation for the years to come.
“This wisdom has come from my familia and is a direct inheritance from our collective body of knowledge,” says Pānquetzani. Imparted with love, tenderness, and respect, here is an invitation to participate in a rich tradition that celebrates birth and motherhood as sacred acts of creation.

- Obeah, Orisa, and Religious Identity in Trinidad, Volume I, Obeah: Africans in the White Colonial Imagination
Obeah, Orisa, and Religious Identity in Trinidad, Volume I, Obeah: Africans in the White Colonial Imagination
by Tracey E. Hucks
$26.95*ships in 7-10 business days
Tracey E. Hucks traces the history of the repression of Obeah practitioners in colonial Trinidad.
Obeah, Orisa, and Religious Identity in Trinidad is an expansive two-volume examination of social imaginaries concerning Obeah and Yoruba-Orisa from colonialism to the present. Analyzing their entangled histories and systems of devotion, Tracey E. Hucks and Dianne M. Stewart articulate how these religions were criminalized during slavery and colonialism yet still demonstrated autonomous modes of expression and self-defense. In Volume I, Obeah, Hucks traces the history of African religious repression in colonial Trinidad through the late nineteenth century. Drawing on sources ranging from colonial records, laws, and legal transcripts to travel diaries, literary fiction, and written correspondence, she documents the persecution and violent penalization of African religious practices encoded under the legal classification of “obeah.” A cult of antiblack fixation emerged as white settlers defined themselves in opposition to Obeah, which they imagined as terrifying African witchcraft. These preoccupations revealed the fears that bound whites to one another. At the same time, persons accused of obeah sought legal vindication and marshaled their own spiritual and medicinal technologies to fortify the cultural heritages, religious identities, and life systems of African-diasporic communities in Trinidad. - Color-Courageous Discipleship: Follow Jesus, Dismantle Racism, and Build Beloved Community

Rastafari: The Evolution of a People and Their Identity
by Charles Price
$30.00*Ships in 7-10 Business Days*
Illuminates how the Rastafari movement managed to evolve in the face of severe biases
Misunderstood, misappropriated, belittled: though the Rastafari feature frequently in media and culture, they have most often been misrepresented, their political and religious significance minimized. But they have not been vanquished.
Charles Price’s Rastafari: The Evolution of a People and Their Identity reclaims the rich history of this relatively new world religion. Charting its humble and rebellious roots in Jamaica’s backcountry in the late nineteenth century to the present day, Price explains how Jamaicans’ obsession with the Rastafari wavered from campaigns of violence to appeasement and cooptation. Indeed, he argues that the Rastafari as a political, religious, and cultural movement survived the biases and violence they faced through their race consciousness and uncanny ability to ride the waves of anti-colonialism and Black Power.
This social movement traveled throughout the Caribbean, Africa, Central America, and the United States, capturing the heart and imagination of much of the African diaspora. Rastafari spans the movement’s struggle for autonomy, its multiple campaigns for repatriation to Africa, and its leading role in the Black consciousness movements of the twentieth century. Not satisfied with simply narrating the past, Rastafari also takes on the challenges of gender equality and the commodification of Rastafari culture in the twenty-first century without abandoning its message of equality and empowering the downpressed.
Rastafari shows how this cultural and political context helped to shape the development of a Black collective identity, demonstrating how Rastafarians confronted society-wide ridicule and oppression and emerged prouder and more united, steadfast in their conviction that they were a chosen people. - Historically Black Colleges and Universities' Guide to Excellence

PRE-ORDER: Nasty Work: Resist Systems, Explore Desire, and Liberate Yourself
$30.00An award-winning sexuality educator takes down society’s deeply entrenched colonial views on sex and gender throughout history in this accessible, candid, and revolutionary exploration of how we can—and should—reclaim our minds and bodies for a more pleasurable existence for all.
When you think about sex ed, your mind likely goes back to those uncomfortable school desks and the stifled laughs of your teenage years. But what we’ve been socialized to believe about sexuality actually hinders our own pleasure well into adulthood. Whether we know it or not, even the most progressive among us are often using 400-year-old inherited thoughts and belief systems in the twenty-first century. Why are we still carrying forth these ancient values that have never served the vast majority?
As a Black, queer, non-binary, disabled femme, Ericka Hart believes that sex ed done right can actually be a tool for liberation. In Nasty Work, she breaks down the ways that social implications keep us from experiencing pleasure, particularly for marginalized communities across race, gender, sexuality, and ability, and how we can dismantle these oppressive myths. From examining what guides our attraction to others to the history of consent, Ericka Hart takes the blinders off and reveals a more empowering view of sex and sexuality.
Nasty Work blends eye-opening research with powerful, poignant personal narrative that disrupts everything you thought you knew about sex and society, offering a liberatory framework that makes pleasure accessible for all.

Waiting for Dawn: Living with UncertaintyPRE-ORDER:
$28.00Author Marisa Renee Lee shares how to care for yourself during uncertain times—a disorienting emotional period when life is fundamentally altered without your consent, in prose Maggie Smith deems "nothing short of a miracle and just what we need right now.”
In Waiting for Dawn, bestselling author Marisa Renee Lee reveals how to prioritize and care for yourself when change you don’t want is thrust upon you. Lee guides you through the hard times that arise unexpectedly and disrupt your life for in-determinate periods. Uncertainty and fear impact how you interact with the world and understand your place in it. You manage the loneliness and isolation by convincing others that you are fine. Lee debunks the idea that you must force positivity and, instead, helps you learn how to hold compassion for yourself in hard times.
Through rich, revelatory prose, Lee assists you in navigating life’s unstable and overwhelming moments. Using research and her personal experiences, she argues that self-preservation is necessary when life is at its worst. If you are experiencing pain, chronic stress, or loneliness or are burdened with self-doubt, Waiting for Dawn brings you from a place of instability to hope.

Rich Forever: What They Didn’t Teach You about Money, Finance and Investments in School
$17.99Remember when talking about money was taboo? Times have changed and in our times, with so many radical and disruptive changes to the economy, the role of the entrepreneur now embedded at the centre of so much societal and technological change, and digital currencies changing the way we think about exchange, money has become a vital, insistent of conversation for everyone. All of us acknowledge it matters desperately; yet so few of us really understand it.
The press and social media are awash with rags to riches stories, stories of kitchen table businesses that become multi-million-pound enterprises. Stories of teenagers and young adults investing in digital currencies from their bedrooms. On the flip side of these aspirational stories there is the reality of the everyday person who simply wants to understand what to and what not to do with their money. Should they save or invest, if they invest - what in, if they save - what for? Should they buy a home or rent, should they live for the moment or live for retirement. How does having credit provide more credit and would insurance be the best bet if all falls around you and what the hell is APR anyway?
Finance and money are topics we all wish we learnt at school but instead we find ourselves having to 'learn on the job', having to do deep investigations and 'trust' the advice from online experts. There must be a better way and a better place to go to for this insight and here we have it, courtesy of two authors who have known hardship and huge success - "What they should have taught you about money, finance and investment at school' to fill that void.

- Life Is a General Thing
Life Is a General Thing
$15.99Life is most certainly a general thing.
Have you ever become bogged down by the weight of expectations and the unpredictability of the future? I have. Have you ever felt overwhelmed by loneliness and wondered why every friendship and relationship you come across fails? Can you tell the difference between lust and love? Do you even know what "love" really is? What's the point of dating? Why are women excused for sexualizing men, while men are criticized if the roles were reversed? Do you find yourself procrastinating and wasting time? Is your confidence shaky, and your insecurities running wild in your mind? If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, you have come to the right place. In this book, I am going to share some of my most personal experiences and stories with real-life, current, young adult issues, along with some (in my opinion) helpful tips and/or viewpoints, all in small, short chapters. I want you to read this book and feel yourself having a one-on-one conversation with me wherever you are. I hope that when you finish reading this book, you will feel not only motivated and inspired to make a change in yourself but that in whatever issue or insecurity you are experiencing, you will no longer feel like you're the only one who has (or is) experiencing those things. Or perhaps you'll find some humor in the relatability of this book, and it brings you a laugh. In whatever way this book affects you, I pray that, in some way, this book will bring something positive into your life.

- PRE-ORDER: Anchored, Aligned, Accountable: A Framework for Transcending Bullsh*t and Transforming Our Lives and Work
PRE-ORDER: Anchored, Aligned, Accountable: A Framework for Transcending Bullsh*t and Transforming Our Lives and Work
$31.00A bold framework for successfully navigating complicated interactions at work and at home—by one of the first leadership coaches to infuse her work with an equity lens and create spaces for connection that require both accountability and generosity.
We all have that moment we wish we could do over. Maybe it was a comment you made at work. Or a look you gave a loved one. Or a time you bit your tongue when a colleague said something that just didn't sit right. These moments cause real, lasting damage because they move us away from who most want to be, and they are what Aiko Bethea calls "the bullsh*t": bullsh*t that keeps us misaligned with who we aspire to be. But Aiko Bethea suggests that there is an alternative—a way to reframe“the bullsh*t”as instances that offer us a choice: We can shrink away, remain in our default comfort zone, and refuse to change our approach—or we can apply a new framework to alter our entire mindset, relationships, and quality of life. Because, as she says, “bullsh*t can’t be fought off, but it can be transcended.” Through her "Anchored-Aligned-Accountable" framework, Bethea shows us how:
Transformation requires that we are anchored in our values, our intention and impact are aligned, and we are accountable to ourselves and others.
Bethea takes us through the real-life scenarios from her career as a facilitator and leadership coach, and guides us through journaling prompts and practical exercises, teaching us how to intentionally lean into our fears and learn from our mistakes. With a witty, engaging voice, Anchored, Aligned, Accountable invites us to embrace connection over competition, empathy over pity, and vulnerability over ego, so that we can become the version of ourselves that we truly respect.
- No More Dancing
No More Dancing
$19.99No More Dancing: Embracing The Power of Restorative Living by Carlos J. Malave is a transformative guide for those ready to stop sidestepping their own needs and start building authentic, balanced relationships. Growing up, Malave found deep connection through the rhythm of Salsa, Merengue, and Bachata. Dance was a language of unity and joy, but over time, he realized he had been "dancing around" his discomforts and conflicts, avoiding confrontation for the sake of harmony. This book reveals his journey to self-acceptance and the power of setting boundaries without guilt.
Malave explores how recognizing our emotions is the foundation for respect and genuine connection. Boundaries, he explains, aren't walls but pathways to healthier relationships. Through reflective exercises, readers will identify their needs, manage emotional triggers, and practice compassionate self-care. By embracing discomfort and engaging in honest conversations, we can forge bonds rooted in understanding and strength.
Inspired by his father's legacy and his commitment to pass these lessons to his daughter, Malave invites readers to step away from avoidance and stand firmly in their truth. No More Dancing is a heartfelt call to live courageously, create a legacy of authenticity, and leave the world a little more whole.
