Praise for Ray Arata and Better Man LLC&#160;&#8220;Showing Up&#160;is a critical and timely book that inspires men to stand up for gender and racial justice on the job. Ray&#160;Arata&#160;makes a compelling case that men care deeply about good leadership and equality in the workplace and&#160;Showing Up&#160;is the &#8216;how to&#8217; manual for how they can intervene in ways that make them better men. This book is a must read for corporate leaders and any man who wants to live up to his potential as an ally and a leader who can shift the world&#8212;one workplace at a time.&#8221;&#8212;Jennifer Siebel Newsom, filmmaker and founder of the Representation Project&#160;&#8220;Showing Up&#160;gives us the game plan we need to consciously and continually be better allies, men, and humans by showing us how to take our intentions and turn them into impact; how to connect with, stay in, and lead from our hearts.&#8221;&#160;&#8212;Justin Baldoni, actor, filmmaker; co-founder of the Wayfarer Foundation; and author of&#160;Man Enough: Undefining My Masculinity&#160;&#8220;Ray is an award-winning and devoted ally and extraordinary role model for other men, bringing a deep understanding of human needs, knowledge of behavioral change, and a huge vision for inclusionary leadership and organizations.&#8221;&#8212;Amy Logan, President, US National Committee for UN Women San Francisco Bay Area; CEO, Gender Innovation&#8220;As men we&#8217;re trained to split ourselves in two: the rational worker in public, the emotional human at home. What a loss&#8212;on both sides of the equation. Ray Arata&#8217;s great gift is that he can help men connect heads and hearts, passion, and productivity. Read this book and let him show you how to be more present at work and in life!&#8221;&#8212;Michael Kimmel, author of&#160;Angry White Men: American Masculinity at the End of an Era&#8220;Diversity, equity, and inclusion leaders understand how critical it is to have everyone, especially men, engaged in the work of creating an inclusive workplace (organization, society!) where all people can thrive. The challenge is making the space for men to truly connect, reflect and then eventually act&#8212;one that doesn&#8217;t also cast shame, blame, and do more harm than good. Showing Up explores healthy masculinity through Ray Arata&#8217;s inimitable voice to create that space. It&#8217;s a must read for practitioners to then share with the men in their lives and organizations.&#8221;&#8212;Cristina Santos, Head of Diversity & Inclusion and Equal Employment Opportunity, North America, Sanofi&#160;&#8220;In my experience, active engagement from men is a critical factor in our shared journey to achieve gender partnership and gender equity. I&#8217;m grateful to the women in my life who welcomed, fostered, and mentored my growth&#8212;enabling me&#160;to be a better leader, father, spouse, and friend. Ray Arata&#8217;s book&#160;is a helpful guide for how men can be better sponsors and advocates for women.&#8221;&#8212;Mike Kaufmann, CEO of Cardinal Health&#8220;In a historical moment when men are called to, and must show up as allies, Ray Arata provides a clear roadmap for what that takes.&#160;His approach is brutally honest, self-reflective, and direct.&#160;Showing Up&#160;is a must read for men on this journey, and for all those who want to call men in as true allies.&#8221;&#160;&#8212;Gary Barker, PhD, Co-founder and CEO, Promundo-US

"Pyle looks past the stumps and clear cuts to rediscover the essence of the Willapa Hills. Even though scarred from decades of logging this terrain is still a wilderness. The author puts the pieces together to create an example of nature trying to survive."&mdash;Krist Novoselic, former bassist of Nirvana&#147;Pyle shows himself here to be a cunning essayist who is able to bring to life a region little known . . . a love song to an overlooked--and overworked--land.&#8221; Kirkus 1/5/87"Pyle has created a collection of vividly responsive observations and speculations about the diversity and requirements of life, from butterflies to bears" Library Journal 2/1/87Not just a classic of Northwest nature writing and literature, Wintergreen is a book that transcends the wounded Willapa Hills where it is set and becomes a meditation on the relationship of all people to all places. &#151;William Dietrich

&ldquo;Janelle Brown is a terrific storyteller and stylist, and I&rsquo;ll Be You is one of those books you&rsquo;ll devour. It has a hot mess of a narrator&mdash;actually two hot messes, twins&mdash;both of whom you will root for, even as you are screaming at them to get a grip. Also? The novel has more twists and turns than the canyon roads that snake up and around Los Angeles.&rdquo;&mdash;Chris Bohjalian, New York Times bestselling author of The Flight Attendant and Hour of the Witch &ldquo;In Janelle Brown&rsquo;s latest twisty, propulsive mystery, estranged twin sisters must confront shocking pieces of their past when one of them goes missing. From the first sentence, these women will have you in their grips. You won&rsquo;t be able to put this novel down, and you won&rsquo;t want to.&rdquo;&mdash;Laura Dave, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Thing He Told Me &ldquo;Janelle Brown has done it again, creating a deliciously twisty page-turner you won&rsquo;t be able to put down. But I&rsquo;ll Be You is much more than a riveting thriller; it&rsquo;s a powerful and moving portrait of the fiercely tenacious bonds of familial love. With her trademark beautiful writing, depth of emotion, and sharp insights, Brown explores the dangers that lurk behind the seductive worlds of Hollywood child stardom and self-help culture. I loved this novel.&rdquo;&mdash;Angie Kim, Edgar Award&ndash;winning author of Miracle Creek &ldquo;Absolutely delicious . . . Janelle Brown is a surgeon of the complex relationships between women. I gobbled this up.&rdquo;&mdash;Emma Straub, New York Times bestselling author of All Adults Here &ldquo;Bestseller Brown (Pretty Things) infuses this&#160;twist-packed mystery&#160;with an intense story of creating one&rsquo;s identity, rife with deep family trauma and a low-key, creepy depiction of the dark side of twin intimacy. . . . The perfectly paced emotional reveals of the twins&rsquo; shared history pull the reader toward fierce investment in Elli&rsquo;s safety and the sisters&rsquo; reconnection.&#160;Brown has upped her game with this one.&rdquo;&mdash;Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Praise for We Refuse to Forget:"Caleb Gayle's rich and important book reminds us that American history is more surprising, terrible, and, yes, inspiring than we often care to know. The history he weaves is deeply relevant to today's movements for racial justice and Indigenous rights, as well as to the enduring and quintessential question, &lsquo;who is an American?&rsquo; I'm grateful for the painstaking work Gayle has done to answer this&#160;question for all of us." &mdash;Heather McGhee, author of The Sum of Us&ldquo;Caleb Gayle&mdash;as a journalist, the son of Jamaican&#160;immigrants, and a son of the country&mdash;has written a gripping history of the fully black and fully Creek citizens of the tribe who have struggled against both the Republic and the Creek Nation to secure their rightful place in both. He tells a complicated story of the past and in doing so sheds light on the ways our fantasies of race endure and are, gradually, being undone. A vital work. &rdquo; &mdash;David Treuer, author of The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee&ldquo;When Caleb Gayle wrote this book, he reached back into history to find power. By telling the stories of elders like Cow Tom and other Black Creeks who refused to simplify our understanding of race, he amplified that our stories escape categories because our lives are rich and complex. In the end, he let us not forget that America can handle every part that makes us whole.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Ibram X. Kendi, National Book Award-winning author of Stamped from the Beginning and How to Be an Antiracist&ldquo;We Refuse to Forget reminds readers, on damn near every page, that we are collectively experiencing a brilliance we've seldom seen or imagined. Caleb Gayle welcomes us and then deftly interrogates and really initiates the parts of my experience and imagination that I do not want to wholly accept as home. We Refuse to Forget is a new standard in book-making.&rdquo; &mdash;Kiese Laymon, author of the bestselling Heavy: An American Memoir &#160; &ldquo;Caleb Gayle is both historian and griot. We Refuse to Forget is an important part of American history told with a clear-eyed and forceful brilliance.&rdquo; &mdash;Jacqueline Woodson, National Book Award-winning author of Red at the Bone
