Tayo arrives at Cathy's with only the clothes he stands up in.

The social worker gives Cathy the forms which should contain Tayo's history, but apart from his name and age, it is blank. Tayo has no past. Tayo is an 'invisible' child, kidnapped from his loving father in Nigeria and brought illegally to the UK by his drink and drugs dependent prostitute mother, where he is put to work in a sweat shop in Central London. When he sustains an injury and is no longer earning, he is cast out. When Cathy takes Tayo to school he points out a dozen different addresses where he has stayed in the last six months, often being left alone. Tayo lies, and manipulates situations to his own advantage and Cathy has to be continually on guard.Tayo's social worker searches all computer databases but there is no record of Tayo -- he has only attended school for 3 terms and has never seen a doctor. He and his mother have been evading the authorities by living 'underground'.

The Evolution of the Mississippi Delta: From Exploited Labor and Mules to Mechanization and Agribusiness reveals the Delta's diverse cultures, labor development, demographic populations, politics, socioeconomic conditions and transitions of the region since the American Civil War. Following the war, national and international demand for cotton fiber was high all along the Mississippi Yazoo Delta. The region's sharecropper system was created at that time, with economic and cultural impact, resulting in a fixed underclass of citizens. The wording of the Thirteenth Amendment left a loophole that resulted in the virtual continuation of slavery in the Yazoo Delta and other parts of the South. Federal relief programs offered by the New Deal helped the Delta elite strengthen its economic and political control over the region. World War II also affected the Delta region, with its influences causing a massive dislocation of labor, leading to social unrest, and the resistance of Delta elite to civil rights challenges of the 1960s and 1970s.

Since the American Civil War, the major shifts in the Mississippi Yazoo Delta on many levels have been experienced by a multitude of peoples, including Choctaw Indians, Blacks, Chinese and Italians, resulting in a rich history..

TIBET: Enduring Spirit, Exploited Land describes the traditional lives of nomads and farmers and their practices in co-existing with the environment. The environmental ethic developed by the Tibetans over millennia now threatened by Chinese social system and development practices, and the massive transfer of Han Chinese into Tibet. These events have gained increased significance for the world as dependence on the natural resources reaches its limits. The survival of the Tibetan culture and its environment has local, regional and global implications: The Tibetan Plateau is the source of Asia's major rivers that is the lifeline to millions of people throughout Asia. Tibet has been shown to influence weather conditions that affect the global climate patterns. The changes to the Tibetan environment through colonization have affected the livelihood of nomads and farmers. Moreover, the destruction of the Tibetan culture means a loss of an age-old earth-based wisdom of co-existing with the environment. Through interviews with Tibetan nomads and farmers, Apte and Edwards document the significant changes to this previously pristine environment as a result of the ongoing impact of the Chinese presence. The overall picture makes it clear that what happens in Tibet, has a direct and crucial bearing on the lives of hundreds of millions of people in Asia living downstream from Tibet, and on the environmental balance of the world..
