Hard road : Bernie Guindon and the reign of the Satan's Choice Motorcycle Club / by Edwards, Peter,1956-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."The spiritual godfather of Canadian bikers tells the story of his fascinating life. You could call Bernie Guindon the Sonny Barger of Canadian bikers (but not to his face). The founder of Satan's Choice, Guindon led what was in the 1960s the second-largest biker club in the world (after the Hells Angels, which Bernie would join briefly in the early 2000s) to national prominence and international infamy. His life wasn't all bikes and crime. He was also a medalist in boxing for Canada at the Pan Am Games. That tension between the very rough life he was born into and the possibility for success in the straight world (and how aspirations in each fed his success in the other) layer Guindon's story, one of the great untold stories in biker history. Friends from the biker world and Guindon's family have given extensive interviews for Hard Road, including his son, Harley, a convict and outlaw biker himself."--

Thunder Song Essays [electronic resource] : by LaPointe, Sasha.aut; cloudLibrary;
The author of the award-winning memoir Red Paint returns with a razor-sharp, clear-eyed collection of essays on what it means to be a proudly queer indigenous woman in the United States today Drawing on a rich family archive as well as the anthropological work of her late great-grandmother, Sasha taqʷšəblu LaPointe explores themes ranging from indigenous identity and stereotypes to cultural displacement and environmental degradation to understand what our experiences teach us about the power of community, commitment, and conscientious honesty. Unapologetically punk, the essays in Thunder Song segue from the miraculous to the mundane, from the spiritual to the physical, as they examine the role of art—in particular music—and community in helping a new generation of indigenous people claim the strength of their heritage while defining their own path in the contemporary world.

A radical awakening : turn pain into power, embrace your truth, live free / by Tsabary, Shefali,1972-author.;
"Dr. Shefali Tsabary was 44 years old when she had an epiphany: the only person stopping her from harnessing her inner power was herself. Awoken to the patriarchal forces that shape female consciousness, Dr. Shefali dedicated her life to inspiring women to take back their power and liberate themselves mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. A Radical Awakening not only lays out a path to heal a woman's own wounds and those of women collectively, it prepares her to discover her own powers so that she may bring healing to others and the planet around her. Dr. Shefali Tsabary guides women through the process of uncovering the purpose that already exists within and harnessing the power of authenticity in every area of life. The result is an eloquent and inspiring, practical and accessible tool containing real-life examples and personal stories from Dr. Shefali's experience as a woman and clinical psychologist that show the extraordinary power of awakening your conscious self"--
