Rhonda Magee inspires us to "reject[t] the temptation to normalize racism" (Magee [10], 50); to "turn to the ways that we create suffering by accommodating, minimizing, or otherwise being comfortable with race and racism" (Magee [10], 58); to "experienc[e] the possibilities inherent in our common humanity" (Ibid., 51), to "commit to ongoing personal awakening" (Ibid., 53), and to assume that we belong (Ibid., 56). "He Burned himself Up for Us" Or The Wisdom of Selflessness, Reading Rhonda Magee's The Inner Work of Racial Justice: 2019, $27.00 (hardback) Perhaps Hemphill and Beam would find common cause with Magee's instructions for creating intangible distance between suffering and the self because they turned suffering into the energy to chart a different world for Black gay living. "If humans are going to make it on this planet ... [we are called to] ... reveal the limitations of narrow identifications with any sense of self as a fixed and enduring entity.".

This particular claim is shaped by the philosophy of technology that is drawn upon, namely the work of Neil Postman and specifically the commitment to asking the question "what is the problem that this technology provides the solution to?" Given this, then, issues also emerge around Russell's claim that the key aim of (assisted) reproductive technologies is to rectify the infertility of women who delay childbearing for careers. " In general, assisted reproductive technologies can be understood as technologies, methods or procedures that are used to help a person or couple achieve a pregnancy. Finally, in technologies such as preimplantation genetic testing, reproductive technologies move away from infertility altogether; instead, the rationale is a matter of permitting or preventing the birth of children who are genetically related to their parents, but who do not share a particular genetic disease trait.

The book is ambitious in its aims - to teach about a clinical tradition and a treatment method that may be foreign to many analysts and psychotherapists - especially those with less exposure to the object relations tradition and the methods developed by TR. When this happens, the treatment may be at risk of deteriorating into two individual therapies, even when conducted in a single treatment setting ([8], [9]). Nathans covers the essence of psychoanalytic couple therapy, its history, and the origins of the TR model. [Extracted from the article]

The article features punk rock rappers and lesbian couple Scream Club. Scream Club's Cindy Wonderful and Sarah Adorable have big plans for their band and their relationship. "We want to be the Siegfried & Roy of rap chicks!" says Adorable. Las Vegas, Nevada might not be ready for the duo but Amsterdam, Netherlands certainly was. In fact, the organizers of Love & Pride 2004, an alternative-rock blowout that punctuates Amsterdam's annual August pride rites invited Scream Club to appear before the duo had even released "Don't Bite Your Sister," their debut album. "Somebody read our profile on Outmusic.com and asked us to perform," Wonderful says. "We couldn't have been more surprised." But the pair have a habit of being in the right place at the right time. Even their meeting was a happy accident. Adorable was working in a porn shop in Olympia, Washington, when new-kid-in-town Wonderful came in looking for work. "She didn't get the job, but she got something better: We fell in love!" Adorable says. Two years later, the couple are partners in every way. "We live together, hang out together, we're in a band together, and we organized the 2004 Olympia Queer Film Festival together," Wonderful gushes. "We're totally best friends."
