A stone is most precious where it belongs : a memoir of Uyghur exile, hope, and survival / by Hoja, Gulchehra,author.;
"In February 2018, twenty-four members of Gulchehra Hoja's family disappeared overnight. In one evening, all those she had left behind in Ürümchi when she fled to a new life in the United States were arrested because of her. Her crime--and thus that of her family--was her award-winning investigations for Radio Free Asia on the plight of the Uyghur people. A Stone is Most Precious Where it Belongs is Gulchehra Hoja's stunning literary memoir, taking us into the everyday world of life under Chinese rule in East Turkistan (more formally as the Xinjiang Autonomous Region of China). The grandchild of a renowned Uyghur musician and the daughter of an esteemed Uyghur archaeologist, Hoja grew up with her people's culture and history running through her veins. She showed her gifts early on as a dancer, actress, and storyteller, putting her on a path to success as a major television star for China's state TV. Slowly though, she began to realize the realities of Communist rule and understand what China was doing to her people. As her rising fame and growing political awakening coincided, she made the decision to flee the US, where she has fight to expose the crimes Beijing is committing in the far reaches of its nation. Revealing the beauty of East Turkistan and its people--its music, its culture, its heritage, and above all its emphasis on community and family, A Stone is Most Precious Where it Belongs gives us a glimpse beyond what the Chinese state wants us to see--showcasing a woman who was willing to risk not just her own life, but also that of her family, to expose her people's story to the world"--

Lucky Fred. [videorecording] / by Ballesteros, Myriam,television director.; Degas, Rupert,voice actor.; Kaye, Paul,voice actor.; Sankey, Elizabeth,voice actor.; Dreamscape Media,publisher.;
Rupert Degas, Paul Kaye, Elizabeth Sankey.Fred is so lucky. He has his own personal robot named Friday who will transform on command into anything he can think of: boxing gloves when the school bully picks a fight, a jet pack, even a translator for girl talk. Whatever Fred needs, Friday can turn himself into. But Friday was not supposed to be a gift from the sky, he was supposed to belong to Fred's neighbor, secret Agent Brains, who works for the intergalactic safety organization called The Protectors. Brains disguises herself as a regular awkward girl named Braianna while saving the world from alien invasions, escaped bug populations, Sewer Bears, and other mysteries. It sure would be easier if she had her robot, but now he only answers Fred's voice commands. Together, Brains, Fred and Friday work as a team taking on the challenges of alien invaders, and worse, junior high!G.Closed-captioned for the hearing impaired.DVD ; wide screen presentation.
