School statue showdown / by Starr, David(School principal),author.;
Includes bibliographical references."This mystery/adventure set in a small BC lumber town is a fictional account of an event that is similar to many across the country--a sudden conflict over a school name and the historic figure it recognizes. Educator and childrens' novelist David Starr builds a compelling fictional narrative using elements drawn from the history of resource exploitation at the expense of First Nations' communities. In this book, the son of the owners of the town's lumber mill goes to a school named after his grandfather. When his grandfather's statue is splashed with paint as a protest, his best friend from the nearby reserve supports the protest. To defend his grandfather's reputation, he digs into town history to learn more about his family. What he learns about the experience of the nearby First Nation community leads to a whole new understanding of his family's legacy--and the town's troubling past."--RL 5.7.012+.

The hivemind swarmed : conversations on Gamergate, the aftermath, and the quest for a safer Internet / by Wolinsky, David(Oral historian),author.;
"With The Hivemind Swarmed, oral historian and gaming expert David Wolinsky invites readers to sit in on a series of urgent, intimate conversations between some of the most distinguished voices in media as they reflect on the longstanding impact of Gamergate. What went wrong, and what can we learn from Gamergate to help us build a more equitable online world? The backstory: Ten years ago, a disgruntled software developer named Eron Gjoni posted online to accuse his ex-girlfriend, game developer Zoe Quinn, of sleeping with game critics in exchange for positive reviews. He offered no evidence to back up his claims. However, his posts were picked up by extremists in the gaming community who built a vicious online movement targeting women, minorities, and progressive voices. Rallying under the hashtag #gamergate, they sent their victims round-the-clock death and rape threats. Game companies, for the most part, declined to take action as their female employees were harassed out of their jobs. The FBI launched an investigation but found "no true threat." Gamergate holds the grim distinction of being the first modern online harassment campaign. It arguably served as a model for the alt-right movement that would help propel Trump to the White House. And it highlighted a toxic media culture -- not just in gaming, but in film, TV, journalism, and more -- in which leaders, through their passivity, took the side of the oppressor. Now, ten years later -- in the wake of #MeToo, Charlottesville, the Trump years, and the January 6 insurrection -- the questions discussed here are more important than ever"--
