Coloniality of power: The coloniality of power is a concept interrelating the practices and legacies of European colonialism in social orders and forms of knowledge, advanced in postcolonial studies and Latin American subaltern studies, most prominently by Anibal Quijano.  It identifies and describes the living legacy of colonialism in contemporary societies in the form of social discrimination that outlived formal colonialism and became integrated in succeeding social orders.  The concept identifies the racial, political and social hierarchical orders imposed by European colonialism in Latin America that prescribed value to certain peoples/societies while disenfranchising others.  Quijano argues that the colonial structure of power resulted in a caste system, where Spaniards were ranked at the top and those that they conquered at the bottom due to their different phenotypic traits and a culture presumed to be inferior.  This categorization resulted in a persistent categorical and discriminatory discourse that was reflected in the social and economic structure of the colony, and that continues to be reflected in the structure of modern postcolonial societies.  Maria Lugones expands the definition of coloniality of power by noting that it imposes values and expectations on gender as well, in particular related to the European ranking of women as inferior to men.  The concept was also expanded upon by Ramón Grosfoguel, Walter Mignolo, Sylvia Wynter, and Nelson Maldonado-Torres.  Quijano's work on the subject "had wide repercussions among Latin American postcolonial scholars in the North American academy."

Savacou: Savacou was a journal of literature, new writing and ideas founded in 1970 as a small co-operative venture, led by Edward Kamau Brathwaite, on the Mona campus of the University of the West Indies, Jamaica.  Characterised as "groundbreaking" by Alison Donnell, "Savacou" grew out of The Caribbean Artists Movement of the 1960s, which was mostly concerned with Caribbean artistic production and with consolidating a broad artistic alliance between all "Third World" peoples.  It took its name from the bird-god in Carib mythology who controlled thunder and strong winds.  Issue 1 of "Savacou" was published in June 1970, edited by Brathwaite, Kenneth Ramchand and Andrew Salkey.  Its advisory committee included John La Rose, Lloyd King, Gordon Rohlehr, Orlando Patterson, Sylvia Wynter, Paule Marshall and Wilfred Cartey, and among its early contributors were C. L. R. James, Michael Anthony, Derek Walcott, George Lamming, Martin Carter and John Figueroa.

Judgement Day (short story): "Judgement Day" is a short story by Flannery O'Connor.  It was published in 1965 in her short story collection "Everything That Rises Must Converge".  O'Connor finished the collection during her final battle with lupus.  She died in 1964, just before her final book was published.

A View of the Woods: "A View of the Woods" is a short story by Flannery O'Connor.  It was completed in the fall of 1956 and was first published in the Fall 1957 issue of "Partisan Review".  It was later republished in "The Best American Short Stories of 1958", and again in 1965, in O'Connor's short story collection, "Everything That Rises Must Converge".  O'Connor had first submitted it to "Harper's Bazaar", although she correctly expected that the story was "a little grim" for the Harper's readership and would be rejected.  A devout Roman Catholic, O'Connor often used religious themes in her work; "A View of the Woods" contains numerous references to the Judeo-Christian tradition.  It explores the ideas of modernism and materialism pitted against salvation.
