Genealogy of the Child, Childs and Childe Families, of the Past and Present in the United States and the Canadas, from 1630 to 1881
Ephraim Child (1593-1663) and his nephew, Benjamin Child (d.1678), immigrated in 1630 to Watertown, Massachusetts. Ephraim left no progeny, but Benjamin settled in Roxbury, Massachusetts, and left twelve children. Descendants and relatives lived in New England, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota and elsewhere. Some descendants became members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and moved to Utah and elsewhere. Other descendants immigrated to Ontario and elsewhere in Canada. Includes some Child ancestry and genealogical data in England.
Political Perversion
When Trump became president, much of the country was repelled by what they saw as the vulgar spectacle of his ascent, a perversion of the highest office in the land. In his bold, innovative book, Political Perversion, rhetorician Joshua Gunn argues that this "mean-spirited turn" in American politics (of which Trump is the paragon) is best understood as a structural perversion in our common culture, on a continuum with infantile and "gotcha" forms of entertainment meant to engender provocation and sadistic enjoyment. Drawing on insights from critical theory, media ecology, and psychoanalysis, Gunn argues that perverse rhetorics dominate not only the political sphere but also our daily interactions with others, in person and online. From sexting to campaign rhetoric, Gunn advances a new way to interpret our contemporary political context that explains why so many of us have difficulty deciphering the appeal of aberrant public figures. In this book, Trump is only the tip of a sinister, rapidly growing iceberg, one to which we ourselves unwittingly contribute on a daily basis.
