A Dry Hate

Power Versus The People

Beschreibung

Someone disrupted the silence but he didn't identify himself. "You don't know they're citizens." A suspenseful storyline in A Dry Hate: Power Versus The People brings current events to life as author Nancy Marshall weaves fact into fiction, providing realistic, sometimes sympathetic characters and motives. In addition, she provides an excellent backdrop of First Amendment issues and a display of power and propaganda in action - an easy and worthwhile read for those who want to understand Arizona immigration politics. Marshall, former director of the Arizona Civil Liberties Union and defense attorney for a jailed activist, is thoroughly familiar with the Constitutional issues that surface throughout the novel. -Terry Goddard, Former Attorney General In early June, Professor Ivan Wilder had met Ms. Emily Hartwell, hotshot defense attorney, at the door of his classroom. Last night, they slept together under the shooting stars. This afternoon, two Deputies stuck them in separate stinking jail cells. How the hell? With an abiding concern for fairness in the face of abuse of power, attorney Nancy Hicks Marshall defended one of the many persons arrested and jailed by Sheriff Joe Arpaio's Deputies but found innocent at trial. Marshall was born and raised on Long Island, educated in the East, and worked in New York City for several years. She moved to Arizona in 1975 and served almost five years as Executive Director of the Arizona Civil Liberties Union.

Nancy Hicks Marshall grew up on Long Island, New York. Her father always planted an organic vegetable garden, from the "Victory Gardens" of World War II until his very later years. Moving to Phoenix in 1975, Nancy started a vegetable garden, finding the seasons and conditions dramatically different than that of the Northeast.First, it is possible in Phoenix to plant in the fall (early October is good) and again in the winter (January, February), but it is difficult to grow much during the summer months. Second, in the dry climate there is not much natural decomposition, so it's important to add compost and other mulch to enrich and replenish the soil.Nancy has had the opportunity to volunteer in two community gardens in South Phoenix. The science of planting, weeding mulching, and irrigating is an ongoing challenge for all the gardeners and farmers. In addition, when numerous individual persons and organizations come together to try and make such a garden work on an ongoing basis, we humans face all kinds of challenges. Two main benefits of working in a community garden are that we both produce healthy food for families, and we develop vital skills and productivity.We hope FINDING ZACHARIAH has allowed you to capture some of the spirit of what is possible in a community garden.
