This volume has brought together scholars from anthropology, history, psychology, and ethnic studies to share their original research into the lesser-known stories of slavery in North America and reveal surprising parallels among slave cultures across the continent. Although they focus on North America, these scholars also take a broad view of slavery as a global historical phenomenon and describe how coercers and the coerced, as well as outside observers, have understood what it means to be a “slave” in various times and cultures, including in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The contributors explore the links between indigenous customs of coercion before European contact, those of the tumultuous colonial era, some of the less-familiar paradigms of slavery before the Civil War, and the hazy legal borders between voluntary and involuntary servitude today. The breadth of the chapters complements and enhances traditional scholarship that has focused on slavery in the colonial and nineteenth-century South, and the contributors find the connections among the many histories of slavery in order to provide a better understanding of the many ways in which coercion and slavery worked across North America and continue to work today.

A stirring book about an ordinary girl, with ordinary talents, determined to make an extraordinary difference in the fight against abortion.As she moves through her sophomore year of high school in Bradford, Florida, Poppy Stewart realizes she is more than the only child of an Iraq war widow, growing up under the watchful eye of her beloved grandfather. First, she meets a stranger from her father''s past, who is determined to share his Christian faith with her. Then, on the first day of school, Poppy meets Tucker O''Reilly, a handsome senior and her partner in their first debate class assignment. As Tucker turns Poppy''s world upside with his passion for Hope House, a crisis pregnancy center, she finds herself pulled from their debate about a local crime of feticide into a shocking realization of what was happening with abortion in her sleepy town. When painful loss threatens to derail her efforts to make a difference, Poppy has to find the faith, and grace, to push forward.     Poppy inspires us to take up the role we each can play in the fight against abortion, no matter our age; to take hold of the grace available for broken sinners, including those heart-broken by abortion; and to step up with courage to fight and win the battle for hearts and minds.
