This view of a life-altering moment in our history—captured from one photographer’s Brooklyn rooftop—is a testament to human hope and resilience, and what we’ve learned about living in community. The roof of a New York apartment building, like some New York neighbors, can be elusive—you could live there for years and never see it. The unique constraints of 2020’s quarantine drove photographer and Brooklyn transplant Josh Katz up to his Bushwick rooftop and introduced him to both. What he discovered there astonished him. Families, lovers, dogs, meditators, artists, exercise fanatics, daredevils, drinkers, dancers—in this strange time the world below had found a way to continue ticking on up above, subject to new patterns and distances. And then, there were the pigeon fanciers, who had been up there for decades, watching the neighborhood change around them. Josh reached for his camera. The project grew from a man’s attempt to cope with his own isolation to a tender portrait of his community—captured entirely from his own roof—and a resonant chronicle of how some of us found new hope and space in a life-altering year. Characters as heartfelt as any in the now-classic Humans of New York accompany Josh’s keen observations on urban space, human interaction, and new ways of city living we can bring down from the roof to apply in a post-quarantine world.

First-time author Sunny Dandridge takes readers deep undercover Into the heart of a small, seemingly peaceful New Jersey town. It all began after curfew on April 8th, 2020, when a series of drive-by shootings shook the neighborhood. Astonishingly, no lives were lost, and none of the residents were awakened. The next day, local newspapers warned of a silver Mercedes linked to the incident and pleaded with residents to report any information. As the shocking truth unfolded, it was revealed that Sunny knew the shooter, as well as the victim and the intended target, intimately. She found herself quick to judge and questioned her mental state. However, Sunny had her own dark history just six months prior. She was embroiled in an open case of trust-passing and "simple" assault, leading her to obtain a restraining order and gun license. As the harassment and threats continued, she prepared to purchase a weapon. Ready for the uninvited. The quarantine and its isolation forced Sunny to take a deeper look at herself and her past. Recognizing her own journey toward her breaking point. "Quarantine Made Me Do It: Amidst the Pandemic" is a gripping true story that peels back the layers of refined public appearances to reveal the chaos that lurks behind closed doors. Sunny journals the pivotal ones that altered her reality and led her to a profound self-discovery. It poses questions: What drives someone to their breaking point? And what does it look like from the inside? The reader is invited to delve into the mental degradation that isolation brought during the quarantine and to relive the head-scratching moments of our "new normal". From the backdrop of COVID-19 and the tragic events surrounding George Floyd to the tumultuous politics of Donald Trump and the race for a vaccine, from relationships and domestic violence to Mental Health awareness and police brutality, from the rise of the "new" white American terrorists and gun violence to the Black Lives Matter protests and the shocking events of the January 6th riots- 2020 left us indelible mark on our lives.

Words kill. They recruited Emily Ruff from the streets. They said it was because she's good with words. They'll live to regret it. They said Wil Parke survived something he shouldn't have. But he doesn't remember. Now they're after him and he doesn't know why. There's a word, they say. A word that kills. And they want it back . . .

“A thoughtful, entertaining history of obsessed music collectors and their quest for rare early 78 rpm records” (Los Angeles Times), Do Not Sell at Any Price is a fascinating, complex story of preservation, loss, obsession, and art. Before MP3s, CDs, and cassette tapes, even before LPs or 45s, the world listened to music on fragile, 10-inch shellac discs that spun at 78 revolutions per minute. While vinyl has enjoyed a renaissance in recent years, rare and noteworthy 78rpm records are exponentially harder to come by. The most sought-after sides now command tens of thousands of dollars, when they’re found at all. Do Not Sell at Any Price is the untold story of a fixated coterie of record collectors working to ensure those songs aren’t lost forever. Music critic and author Amanda Petrusich considers the particular world of the 78—from its heyday to its near extinction—and examines how a cabal of competitive, quirky individuals have been frantically lining their shelves with some of the rarest records in the world. Besides the mania of collecting, Petrusich also explores the history of the lost backwoods blues artists from the 1920s and 30s whose work has barely survived and introduces the oddball fraternity of men—including Joe Bussard, Chris King, John Tefteller, and others—who are helping to save and digitize the blues, country, jazz, and gospel records that ultimately gave seed to the rock, pop, and hip-hop we hear today. From Thomas Edison to Jack White, Do Not Sell at Any Price is an untold, intriguing story of the evolution of the recording formats that have changed the ways we listen to (and create) music. “Whether you’re already a 78 aficionado, a casual record collector, a crate-digger, or just someone…who enjoys listening to music, you’re going to love this book” (Slate).

Schools closed indefinitely....The economy spiraling into recession.....People losing jobs.....The world in a global pandemic. This reality framed the lives of everyone on the planet during the first half of 2020. Ironically, New Year's Eve brought the usual hopes and resolutions of renewal and aspirations for a new decade. However, over the span of several weeks in the United States, there was no rebirth or renewal. There was death, despair and a looming fear of uncertainty associated with a novel virus called COVID-19 Coronavirus. The virus started in the Wuhan Hubei Province of China in the fall of 2019 but quickly spread to all parts of the globe. By March 2020, much of the United States was literally "shutdown" to adhere to "shelter in place" orders at federal, state, and local levels to slow the spread of the virus. By early April, the United States was the epicenter for the virus and deaths were mounting daily. Ayana and Marshall, representing a typical suburban American family, was no different from any other in the United States. Their lives came to a grinding pause. They still had each other and that is the most important thing. What they didn't have were daily school routines, commutes to work, volleyball tournaments, 7-on-7-football practice, or even trips to the mall. Marshall is a professor and research meteorologist at the University of Georgia. Ayana is a former management consultant for a firm in the Washington, D.C. area who manages the household, leads a Girl Scout Troop, and presides over the local high school volleyball booster club. Their teenage daughter plays volleyball, is on the student council, and active in many service organizations. Their preteen son is a typical Fortnite, NBA2K, sports-playing kid. It's a good family with all of the ups and downs of four different personalities under one roof. For several weeks, this family unit sheltered in place. Ayana and Marshall, representing a typical suburban American family, were no different from any other in the United States. Their lives came to a grinding pause during the Coronavirus "Quarantine." Ayana chronicled her thoughts in a daily Facebook post. From this social media diary, the authors captured and expanded upon their experiences and decided to share them others. Within these pages, Ayana and Marshall offer the "good, bad, and ugly" of lockdown while offering lessons learned, interpretations, and opportunities for the reader to engage and self-reflect. How much of your life do you see in their experience? All proceeds, beyond printing costs, to benefit local organizations supporting families and students.
