    Meeting Suffering with Boundless Love

    In the shadows of Madrid’s most notorious drug slum, an American missionary family takes root among heroin addicts and builds an unlikely church. Shooting Up is Jonathan Tepper’s searing memoir of growing up in San Blas, where playgrounds were strewn with syringes and his closest friends were recovering addicts twice his age. When Elliott and Mary Tepper arrive in 1985 with their four young sons, San Blas is the epicenter of Europe’s heroin epidemic. While other children play soccer, Jonathan befriends bank robbers and former prostitutes. His heroes are not athletes, but men like Raúl and Jambri—charismatic ex-addicts who transform their lives through the revolutionary rehabilitation center the Teppers help to found. What begins as eight men in a cramped apartment becomes Betel, now one of the world’s largest drug rehabilitation networks. Yet this is not a story of institutional triumph. Instead, it is an intimate portrait of radical compassion during the height of the AIDS crisis, told through the eyes of a boy watching his parents choose the outcast over the respectable, witnessing miracles and heartbreak in equal measures. Tepper writes with unflinching honesty about the magnetic pull of the streets, the seductive danger of heroin, and the complicated love that binds broken people healing together. His prose—elegant yet raw—captures both the squalor of addiction and the stubborn persistence of grace. This is a memoir about finding beauty in ruins, forging family among outcasts, and learning that the answer to suffering is always more love. It is a story of love and loss, but also a love letter to friends, family, and the act of learning itself. Part Angela’s Ashes, Shooting Up announces Tepper as a powerful new voice in memoir—one who transforms a harrowing childhood into an unforgettable testament to hope. https://www.amazon.com/Shooting-Up-Memoir-Love-Addiction/dp/1964378133 http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

    Unlocking Potential by Nurturing Literacy

    Their mission is to support at-risk schools by providing every kindergartner, first grader, and second grader with books, activities, and videos designed to build character and foster a strong belief system through the power of literacy. Their vision is a world where literacy and shared values are restored in both classrooms and homes, helping to develop strong character traits and break the cycle of poverty. “We have an educational crisis on our hands,” he says. Two-thirds of U.S. students are not reading at grade level. Strong character traits and core values are often not taught at home, making teaching even more challenging. More than 60% of U.S. teachers leave the profession within their first five years. Many at-risk children have no books at home. Does their program help reverse these alarming trends? Just ask their educators!  https://maxrhymesfoundation.org/ http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

    Valuing Every Unique Background

    In higher education over the past two centuries. He explores how the diversity principle—the belief that people with varied backgrounds, experiences, identities, and perspectives produce better outcomes by working together—first took root in the world’s first modern research university, founded in Germany in 1810. This principle inspired John Stuart Mill’s on Liberty, a cornerstone of academic freedom, and shaped Charles Eliot’s transformation of Harvard in the late nineteenth century to encourage the “clash of ideas.” It also underpinned the twentieth-century equality efforts of figures like Thurgood Marshall, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Pauli Murray. By recounting the history of diversity through the lives and work of these and other influential thinkers, Oppenheimer makes a compelling case for embracing diversity as a central value in education and a vital ingredient for a vibrant intellectual and political culture. As contemporary backlash challenges diversity initiatives in government, business, and education, Oppenheimer—hailed by The New Yorker as America’s “diversity detective”—reminds us that understanding the rich, two-hundred-year history of this idea is more important than ever. He is the author of “The Diversity Principle: The Story of a Transformative Idea."  https://www.amazon.com/Diversity-Principle-Story-Transformative-Idea/dp/0300279892 http://www.yourlotandparcel.org
