This groundbreaking feminist classic dismantles the way we view rape in our culture and replaces it with a genuine understanding and respect for female sexual pleasure. In the original edition, feminist, political, and activist writers alike presented their ideas for a paradigm shift from the "No Means No" model--and the result was the groundbreaking shift to today's affirmative consent model ("Yes Means Yes," as coined by this book). With a timely new introduction, refreshed cover, and the timeless contributions of authors from Kate Harding to Jill Filipovic, Yes Means Yes brings to the table a dazzling variety of perspectives and experiences focused on the theory that educating all people to value female sexuality and pleasure leads to viewing women differently, and ending rape. Yes Means Yes has radical and far-reaching effects: from teaching men to treat women as collaborators and not conquests, encouraging men and women that women can enjoy sex instead of being shamed for it, and ultimately, that our children can inherit a world where rape is rare and swiftly punished.

Rape, Is Rape, Is Rape, Is Rape; No Means No, by Reneé Drummond-Brown, sheds light on sexual intercourse carried out forcibly, and/or with a person incapable of granting permission thus making the subject of rape extremely touchy, and victims left-torn with guilt and shame. This book captures physical and psychological torment at the highest-level bringing awareness to the blind who want to maintain the status quo by not challenging the broke system. Drummond-Brown's poetry book claps back on the status quo without mincing words. The author is very vocal and direct in showing the unlawful sex acts brilliantly depicted in poetic form coupled with symbolic pictorial illustrations that tell the story from the rape victim's perspective, who oftentimes is silent and uncomfortable in expressing such ugliness committed on their vulnerable bodies. The book aims to help survivors of sexual assault and human trafficking by placing accountability and blame where it belongs rather than silencing innocent victims of this outrageous violation carried out by men, women, and yes, even cops, teachers, and priest who are often portrayed as "the good guys."

They were unlike any other band in the punk scene they called home. NoMeansNo started in the basement of the family home of brothers Rob and John Wright in 1979. For the next three decades, they would add and then replace a guitar player, sign a record deal with Alternative Tentacles and tour the world. All along the way, they kept their integrity, saying "NO" to many mainstream opportunities. It was for this reason the band (intentionally) never became a household name, but earned the respect and love of thousands of fans around the world, including some who became big rock stars themselves. They were expertly skilled musicians playing a new kind of punk: intelligent, soulful, hilarious, and complex. They were also really nice Canadian dudes. NoMeansNo: From Obscurity to Oblivion is the fully authorized oral and visual history of this highly influential and enigmatic band which has never been told before now. Author Jason Lamb obtained exclusive access to all four former members and interviewed hundreds of people in their orbit, from managers and roadies to fellow musicians, friends, and family members. The result is their complete story, from the band's inception in 1979 to their retirement in 2016, along with hundreds of photos, posters, and memorabilia, much of which has never been seen publicly before. For established fans, this book serves as a "love letter" to their favorite group and provides many details previously unknown. For those curious about the story and influence of NoMeansNo, it reveals an eye-opening tale of how a punk band could be world class musicians while truly "doing it themselves." Their impact and importance cannot be overstated, and NoMeansNo: From Obscurity to Oblivion is the essential archive.

¿Whatever the example, children live and grow by that example.¿ No, Means NO! is a story that every child should hear, because child predators do not announce their arrival in a child¿s life. To the contrary, they strategically maneuver into children¿s lives in a very concealing and sly manner. They are camouflaged right before our very eyes. Many times, they remain in children¿s lives for a long time. (And even once is a long time.) It is up to us, as responsible adults, to let children know that if they are sexually abused, or fearful of being abused, they must tell someone. Children need to know that no matter what a predator says to make them not tell anyone, ¿TELL ANYWAY!¿ No, Means NO! was written to support children against sexual abuse and to support bonding between adults and children. Hopefully, this level of healthy bonding will support children enough to encourage them to speak out, if ever needed, against sexual abuse. About the Author Y. Taylor encourages the nurturing of children. She believes that, ideally, nurturing begins before birth. She understands that children¿s healthy minds play a large part concerning their successful development. It is her desire to encourage more adults to share significant time with young people. Taylor regards children¿s opinions with much contemplation. Through her simple stories, she attempts to capture voices and feelings of the younger population. Just as importantly, she hopes to encourage quality bonding time between youth and adults. A native of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Taylor teaches and has served as an administrator of special education. Taylor is married and has two children. Her children have served as advisors for her stories.

Just a few hours later, in the midst of Anderson, SC's annual May Day festival, over two thousand Federal troops invaded and occupied Anderson.
