The Consequences is set in the Mexican-American community of California''s Central Valley, depicting the lives of farmworkers and their children who contend with limited opportunities, queerness and the challenges of intimacy. Manuel''s ongoing project has been to write about people like those he grew up with who don''t otherwise turn up in American fiction or get considered as part of the history and mythology of California, although he''s not out to merely represent Mexican and Mexican-American lives, but rather to allow them their complications and contradictions.
In Tomorrow Is Too Late, Grace Maddrell collects testimonies of activism and hope from young climate strikers, from Brazil and Burundi to Pakistan and Palestine. These youth activists are experiencing the reality of the climate crisis, including typhoons, drought, flood, fire, crop failure, and ecological degradation, and are all engaged in the struggle to bring these issues to the centre of the world stage. Their strength and determination show the urgency of their cause, and their understanding that the generations above them have failed to safeguard their environment. With contributors aged between eight and twenty-five, this is an inspiring collection of essays from the most vital generation of voices in the global struggle for climate justice, and offers a manifesto for how you can engage, educate, and inspire change for a more hopeful future.
Inspired by the author's personal experiences of hate crime and bookended with essays which contextualise the story within a lifetime of microaggressions, Lessons in Love and Other Crimes is a heart-breaking, hopeful, and compulsively readable novel about the most quotidian of crimes.
The latest addition to The Indigo Press's Mood Indigo series of polemical essays sees Sam Mills, author of the acclaimed novel The Quiddity of Will Self, investigate the phenomena of what she terms 'chauvo-feminism', where men pose as 'woke' feminists, in order to advance their careers, while privately exhibiting chauvinistic attitudes.
AI has unparalleled transformative potential to reshape society, our economies and our working lives, but without legal scrutiny, international oversight and public debate, we are sleepwalking into a future written by algorithms which encode racist, sexist and classist biases into our daily lives - an issue that requires systemic political and cultural change to productively address. Leading privacy expert Ivana Bartoletti exposes the reality of the AI revolution, from the low-paid workers who toil to train algorithms to recognise cancerous polyps, to the rise of techno-racism and techno-chauvinism and the symbiotic relationship between AI and right wing populism. An Artificial Revolution is an essential primer to understand the intersection of technology and geopolitical forces shaping the future of civilisation.* Endorsements confirmed from leading UK political figures including David Lammy MP, Yvette Cooper MP, Paul Mason, Frances O'Grady and Ayesha Hazarika* A primer for anyone who is interested to learn more about the relation between AI and ethics, data and privacy, corporate power, politics and tech* Ivana is a sought-after commentator who has appeared on flagship news programmes on the BBC, Sky and other major broadcasters as a privacy and AI ethics expert, who also speaks at conferences around the world on AI and privacy
