A Pilgrimage
Authors: Sanders Johnson Grace 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This chapter is a dwelling space that attends to women organizers’ intergenerational political vision for the future of women and girls in Haiti. Told through a public letter written by Jeanne Perez to her goddaughter Marie-Madeleine Price-Mars alongside the goddaughter character in Perez’s play Sanité Bélair, the chapter observers parental care and collective mothering as a revolutionary practice of Haitian women’s politics used to imagine future configurations of citizenship.
Prophets of a Promised Land
Authors: Lorek Timothy W. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Chapter Two in Making the Green Revolution traces the convergence of three individuals and how their respective ideas contributed to the formation and research agenda of an agricultural experiment station outside the city of Palmira in the Cauca Valley. The collaboration of a regional politician named Ciro Molina Garcés, an agronomist named Carlos Durán Castro, and a Puerto Rican scientist named Carlos Chardón, defined agronomy work in the Cauca Valley and linked this region to broader scientific networks across the Greater Caribbean.
Sugarcane Genealogies
Authors: Lorek Timothy W. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Chapter Four in Making the Green Revolution traces the history of sugarcane production and sugar milling in the Cauca Valley, the most important region for sugar production in Colombia. It outlines the emergence of the early sugarcane agribusiness sector in the region, then shows how plant disease in the 1930s led to intensified public-private partnerships in plant breeding, including connections between Cauca Valley sugar producers and the United States Department of Agriculture. The connections forged during this period opened additional opportunities for the growth of industrial-scale monocultures, whose production share increased in relation to smaller scale unrefined sugar producers during the 1940s and 50s.
Fighting Wars of All Kinds
Authors: Mantler Gordon K. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Harold Washington’s victory led to some early policy changes, especially in affirmative action, and inspired Jesse Jackson to run for president in 1984. But Washington largely fell short of fulfilling his ambitious vision of a fair, just city, especially in the first years of his administration. He was stymied not just by the racial politics of councilman Edward Vrdolyak and his white ethnic allies desperately holding on to power locally, as the narrative usually goes, but also by a potent form of white supremacy and neoliberalism championed by the Reagan administration and contradictions within Washington’s own coalition. This in turn helped fuel and empower the so-called Council Wars that wracked city politics. Being mayor of Chicago was one of the great political prizes in American politics, and yet it seemed more and more like a devalued prize, thanks to the unique social, political, and economic challenges of the decade. Such was the experience, in various forms, by Washington’s fellow Black and Latino mayors across the nation in the 1980s.
The Fragility of Coalitions
Authors: Mantler Gordon K. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Washington enjoyed six months of policy accomplishments in education, development, and ethics regulation. But any mandate for his vision of the city faded after he died of a heart attack six months into his second term. Negotiations behind the scenes by the mayor’s white rivals led to Eugene Sawyer as a caretaker mayor, followed by an ineffectual seventeen months in office and the eventual victory of State’s Attorney Richard M. Daley as the new mayor in 1989. The coalition Washington and his grassroots allies had stitched together clearly showed its political fragility. It would be a mistake, however, to suggest that Washington’s passing and his coalition’s loss of most levers of power meant a return to a bygone era. Some of the reforms that Washington’s administration introduced survived, at least for a while, under a retooled machine designed for the 1990s. Changes to the city’s political culture had staying power, too. Black and Latino Chicagoans remained better integrated in city government, as they did nationally, while overall Latino political power increased. Patronage declined and gay rights, through an ordinance championed by Sawyer, were better respected. But such changes did not necessarily promise a more equitable system.
Legacies and the New Machine
Authors: Mantler Gordon K. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Richard M. Daley would serve twenty-two years as mayor and become the city’s longest serving in the city’s history, surpassing his father’s tenure. Routinely praised as one of the nation’s best mayors in the mainstream press, Daley and his reconstituted machine transformed Chicago into a powerful, vibrant but remarkably unequal global city. Chicago became a symbol of the neoliberalism that swept American policymaking in both parties at the national level, symbolized by President Bill Clinton’s politics. But it would be a mistake to credit or blame Daley and his allies for the city’s transformation entirely. Rather, many of Daley’s policies – or the seeds of them – were legacies of the Washington administration and an ironic result of the remarkable grassroots coalition that the city’s first Black mayor built. That includes the current crisis of democracy in the United States in the 21st century.
Conclusion
Authors: McQueeney Kevin 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
The concluding chapter explores the transformation of health care in post-–Hurricane Katrina New Orleans, including Louisiana State University’s controversial decision to keep closed Charity Hospital closed. Aided by political allies and federal funding, Louisiana State University succeeded in their long-desired plan to replace Charity Hospital with a modern university hospital. However, Black residents continued to suffer. The new university hospital did not open for ten years after the closure of Charity Hospital. Similarly, the predominantly Black New Orleans East neighborhood waited ten years for the reopening of a hospital in that area. Both of these waits disproportionately impacted Black residents, who made up the vast majority of patients at the two hospitals, and many African Americans had virtually no access to health care. Even when the university hospital opened in 2015, its abandonment of its mission to provide care for indigent residents in favor of becoming a “destination hospital” for individuals seeking cutting cutting-edge medical practices resulted in the exclusion of many former patients. Additionally, the building of the university hospital as part of New Orleans’s expansive BioDistrict, intended to foster the growth of the city’s biomedical sector, led to further displacement of Black residents through eminent domain. Although the expansion of Medicaid funding and primary care clinics proved positive for low-income residents, racial health disparity and two-tiered health care remained, most visible in the disproportionate number of Black deaths during the city’s COVID-19ovid19 epidemic.
Vodou en Vogue
Authors: Nwokocha Eziaku Atuama 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
In Haitian Vodou, spirits impact Black practitioners' everyday lives, tightly connecting the sacred and the secular. As Eziaku Atuama Nwokocha reveals in this richly textured book, that connection is manifest in the dynamic relationship between public religious ceremonies, material aesthetics, bodily adornment, and spirit possession. Nwokocha spent more than a decade observing Vodou ceremonies from Montreal and New York to Miami and Port-au-Prince. She engaged particularly with a Haitian practitioner and former fashion designer, Manbo Maude, who presided over Vodou temples in Mattapan, Massachusetts, and Jacmel, Haiti. With vivid description and nuanced analysis, Nwokocha shows how Manbo Maude's use of dress and her production of ritual garments are key to serving Black gods and illuminate a larger transnational economy of fashion and spiritual exchange. This innovative book centers on fashion and other forms of self-presentation, yet it draws together many strands of thought and practice, showing how religion is a multisensorial experience of engagement with what the gods want and demand from worshippers. Nwokocha's ethnographic work will challenge and enrich readers' understandings not only of Vodou and its place in Black religious experience but also of religion's entanglements with gender and sexuality, race, and the material and spiritual realms.
Becoming the Nationalist Party
Authors: Power Margaret M. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
The Nationalist Party formed in 1922. This chapter analyzes party’s political evolution through the lens of race, gender, women’s participation and attitude toward the United States. After 1930, when Pedro Albizu Campos became party president, the party adopted a more radical stance on these and other issues. One issue remained constant: the party’s emphasis on solidarity with other forces throughout the hemisphere.
El aprendizaje interactivo como estrategia en el sistema a distancia

En la actualidad las diversas herramientas tecnológicas que existen han favorecido al aprendizaje para poder establecer nuevos mecanismos diferentes al sistema tradicional que por muchos años no se había modificado respecto a la forma en que se impartía clases. El tema seleccionado se justifica toda vez que el concepto de aprendizaje interactivo es muy actual y existen pocos estudios que lo identifiquen como un aprendizaje, se identifica más como una herramienta o un instrumento. En la investigación se cuestiona: ¿Cuáles son los resultados que se han obtenido a partir de su implementación? Es importante poder identificar las problemáticas que presenta el aprendizaje interactivo, ya que los beneficios pueden ser muchos, pero sería bueno poder mejor las áreas de fortaleza. Los elementos del tiempo y el espacio son factores en beneficio del aprendizaje interactivo, en donde los alumnos no están sujetos a un espacio y tiempo determinado, siendo el dicente el sujeto principal debido a la interactividad que debe de tener con los contenidos, al ser estos más atractivos, con menos tiempo de lecturas, pero más tiempo de calidad invertido al aprendizaje.

Abstract. The bivalve mollusc Arctica islandica can live for hundreds of years, and its shell has provided a valuable resource for sclerochronological studies and geochemical analyses for understanding palaeoenvironmental change. Shell specimens recovered from the seabed need to be dated in order to aid sample selection, but existing methods using radiocarbon dating or cross-dating are both costly and time-consuming. We have investigated amino acid geochronology (AAG) as a potential alternative means of providing a less costly and more efficient range-finding method. In order to do this, we have investigated the complex microstructure of the shells, as this may influence the application of AAG. Each of the three microstructural layers of A. islandica have been isolated and their protein degradation examined (amino acid concentration, composition, racemization, and peptide bond hydrolysis). The intra-crystalline protein fraction was successfully extracted following oxidation treatment for 48 h, and high-temperature experiments at 140 °C established coherent breakdown patterns in all three layers, but the inner portion of the outer shell layer (iOSL) was the most appropriate component due to practicalities. Sampling of the iOSL layer in Holocene shells from early and late ontogeny (over 100–400 years) showed that the resolution of AAG is too low in A. islandica for within-shell age resolution. However, analysis of 52 subfossil samples confirmed that this approach could be used to establish a relative geochronology for this biomineral throughout the whole of the Quaternary. In the late Holocene the temporal resolution is ∼1500–2000 years. Relative dating of 160 dredged shells of unknown age was narrowed down using AAG as a range finder, showing that a collection of shells from Iceland and the North Sea covered the middle Holocene, late Holocene, later and post-medieval (1171–1713 CE), and modern day. This study confirms the value of A. islandica as a reliable material for range finding and for dating Quaternary deposits.
Incremental analysis update (IAU) in the Model for Prediction Across Scales coupled with the Joint Effort for Data assimilation Integration (MPAS–JEDI 2.0.0)

Abstract. In a cycling system where data assimilation (DA) and model simulation are executed consecutively, the model forecasts initialized from the analysis (or data assimilation) can be systematically affected by dynamic imbalances generated during the analysis process. The high-frequency noise arising from the imbalances in the initial conditions can impose constraints on computational stability and efficiency during subsequent model simulations and can potentially become the low-frequency waves of physical significance. To mitigate these initial imbalances, the incremental analysis update (IAU) has long been utilized in the cycling context. This study introduces our recent implementation of the IAU in the Model for Prediction Across Scales – Atmospheric (MPAS-A) coupled with the Joint Effort for Data assimilation Integration (JEDI) through the cycling system called MPAS-Workflow. During the integration of the compressible nonhydrostatic equations in MPAS-A, analysis increments are distributed over a predefined time window (e.g., 6 h) as fractional forcing at each time step. In a real case study with the assimilation of all conventional and satellite radiance observations every 6 h for 1 month, starting from mid-April 2018, model forecasts with the IAU show that the initial noise illustrated by surface pressure tendency becomes well constrained throughout the forecast lead times, enhancing the system reliability. The month-long cycling with the assimilation of real observations demonstrates the successful implementation of the IAU capability in the MPAS–JEDI cycling system. Along with the comparison between the forecasts with and without the IAU, several aspects regarding the implementation in MPAS–JEDI are discussed. Corresponding updates have been incorporated into the MPAS-A model (originally based on version 7.1), which is now publicly available in MPAS–JEDI and MPAS-Workflow version 2.0.0.

Present work was conducted to assess the apple value chain, and marketing margin to propose policy recommendations for apple production in Balochistan. The population of the study consists of the Kalat division; districts Mastung and Kalat were selected randomly for conducting research. A total of 120 respondents were interviewed. 25 growers, 15 wholesalers, 15 retailers, and only 10 commission agents were interviewed separately in each district. The results showed that 24.0% of the apple growers in both districts were illiterate, about 80.0% had experience of 35 to 50 years in apple production, and about 80% of the orchards were established for 20 to 25 years. Producers' profit share for different varieties of apple Tor Kulu 46.66%, Shin Kulu 34.44%, and Kaja 48.55%. Wholesalers profit share for Tor Kulu 10.31%, Shin Kulu 7.94%, and Kaja 10.29%. and the retailers' profit share for Tor Kulu was 7.50%, Shin Kulu 4.94%, and Kaja 6.27%. Further, there were no facilities for cold storage and roads. Probably, the grower’s knowledge regarding apple production and the lack of facilities for wholesalers and retailers are the main obstacles to apple production. The major problems noted during the survey were the improper infrastructure, lack of markets in the study area, illegal smuggling of apples, less availability of natural resources and credit, and the lack of market intelligence and extension services. It is suggested that there should be a good possibility to develop a policy that supports the marketing of apples, especially through agricultural cooperatives, besides further enhancing the exploitation of state subsidies for apple production.
Agrivoltaics in Germany - Status Quo and Future Developments

Ground-mounted photovoltaic facilities in open spaces have been common in Germany for many years. However, according to the legislation, these are only supported by the government on poorer quality soils, former military training areas, or along traffic routes. Nevertheless, also on high quality soils it is not forbidden to install ground-mounted photovoltaic facilities. In recent years, Germany has started implementing agrivoltaics, which is an alternative land use concept that combines agriculture and renewable energy production. This opens the possibility to use land of higher soil quality for energy generation without necessarily creating land-use conflicts and being subsidized by the government. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of existing and planned agrivoltaic facilities in Germany analyzing them based on various parameters. The data for this study was collected through a community questionnaire and supplemented with data from state institutions.
The results indicate that as of March 2023, 21 agrivoltaic facilities with a total capacity of 81.67 MWp have been installed. A strong increase of the installed capacity is expected in 2023 and 2024, reaching approximately 382.59 MWP by the end of 2024. The market development of agrivoltaics is mainly driven by changes in the legal environment which present opportunities for further market ramp-up of agrivoltaics. The adoption of agrivoltaics shows a notable spatial diversity in Germany which appears to be influenced by the interaction between regulatory environments and agricultural structures.
Preface: AgriVoltaics World Conference 2023
Authors: Oh Soo-Young 
Published: May 2024

Dear colleagues,
I warmly welcome you to the proceedings of the 4th AgriVoltaics World Conference [1] in Daegu, Korea. Our community's journey in the dynamic interplay between agriculture, renewable energy, and sustainability began in 2020 and has shown a remarkable growth and influence.
The AgriVoltaics World Conference 2023 saw a remarkable submission of 130 abstracts from 28 countries, bringing together almost 350 delegates from Europe, Asia, the Middle East, North and South America, and Africa, both in-person and online.
These proceedings present a diverse collection of scientific investigations, innovative advancements, and forward-thinking techniques, capturing the development of agrivoltaics from theory to a comprehensive resolution that tackles global issues. The concept of agricultural solar power generation, which was first introduced in 1981, has since been validated through empirical studies and regulatory frameworks established from 2013 onwards. As different countries adopt and adapt this concept, it is transforming into a powerful force for positive change, offering sustainable solutions tailored to unique circumstances.
Korea, our host country, stands as evidence of the commitments made post the 2015 Paris Agreement. The country's efforts towards achieving carbon neutrality, along with proactive approaches such as population centralisation and rural communalisation, highlight the importance and practicality of our discussions.
As we gather in Daegu, let us see this process not just as a repository of information, but as a source of inspiration. Together, let us envision and actively contribute to a future in which agrivoltaics provides practical solutions to address concerns related to climate change, food security, and environmental stewardship.
I thank all of the conference participants, authors, presenters, reviewers, session chairs, my co-chair Prof. Jae Hak Jung, and the organizing committee for an extremely successful conference!
Yours sincerely,Prof. Soo-Young OhChair of the Scientific CommitteeAgriVoltaics World Conference 2023

Nghiên cứu mô tả cắt ngang được thực hiện trên 60 người bệnh đi khám tại Bệnh viện Đa khoa Đống Đa Hà Nội nhằm đánh giá nhận thức về ảnh hưởng của hút thuốc lá đối với sức khỏe răng miệng và thái độ tiếp nhận tư vấn cai thuốc từ bác sĩ răng hàm mặt của đối tượng trên. Kết quả cho thấy phần lớn người bệnh có kiến thức tốt về ảnh hưởng của hút thuốc lá đối với sức khỏe răng miệng (80%). Tỷ lệ người bệnh nhận thức được hút thuốc lá có nguy cơ gây đổi màu răng, hôi miệng, ung thư miệng, sâu răng và nha chu là khá cao. Tuy nhiên, người bệnh lại chưa có nhận thức tốt về mối quan hệ giữa hút thuốc lá và làm giảm vị giác (31,7%), làm chậm lành thương (28,3%) và làm thất bại cấy ghép implant (16,7%). Ngoài ra, kết quả cho thấy bệnh nhân có thái độ rất tích cực đối với sự tham gia của bác sĩ Răng Hàm Mặt trong các hoạt động hỗ trợ cai thuốc lá. Như vậy, bác sĩ Răng Hàm Mặt cần đảm nhiệm và đẩy mạnh công tác tuyên truyền về tác hại của thuốc lá với sức khoẻ răng miệng tới người bệnh.

Tornou-se recorrente no Brasil a implementação de políticas curriculares contemporâneas destinadas aos variados níveis de ensino no que conhecemos como “reforma do ensino”, contudo, persiste-se a centralidade de práticas educativas em escolas dos sistemas formais de ensino e o descrédito de percursos formativos alcançados em outros espaços educativos. Diante disso, o objetivo é investigar como a Universidade da Maturidade, da Universidade Federal do Tocantins (UMA/UFT), torna-se um dos espaços de luta contra esse tipo de hegemonia e promove práticas educacionais intergeracionais com crianças, adolescentes, jovens, adultos e pessoas idosas. A metodologia segue o caminho qualitativo, pois analisam-se documentos da instituição de Educação Gerontológica, produzidos no período de 2021 e 2022, a partir das escolhas, dos interesses e das necessidades dos pesquisadores, diante da construção de trajetórias que alcançam o conjunto de material empírico em variados projetos, campanhas, eventos e cursos. Entre os resultados estão descrições de um espaço de Educação Popular não-formal que foge da personalização, customização e diferenciação que passaram a operar em dispositivos curriculares que estruturam a formação humana. Ao passo que conclui-se tratar-se de um material útil, para reflexões quanto à escolarização de pessoas que envelheceram, em processos de diferentes Itinerários Formativos na Educação de Jovens e Adultos.
