Portrait of Peninsula Woman
Portrait of Peninsula Woman is a collection of stories written and published September 2001 to June 2005 in the Chinook Observer on the Long Beach Peninsula in the state of Washington. While living in Nahcotta, a tiny little community on the east side of the peninsula overlooking Willapa Bay, I discovered I was actually living next door to stories. I picked up stories among the ninety-five mailboxes at the Nahcotta post office; twisting and stretching with stories in yoga classes; listening to stories played on a grand piano in the little church where the preacher was preaching story; sniffing out stories served up with breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a half dozen restaurants up and down the...
Crimes against Humanity in the Land of the Free
This vital book considers the compelling and addictive hold that racism has had on centuries of Americans, explores historical and contemporary norms complicit in the problem, and appeals to the U.S. government to improve race relations, rectify existent social imperfections, and guard against future race-based abuses.

Social Palliation
Social Palliation is a pioneering study on living and dying as articulated by first-generation Iranian and Ismaili Muslim communities in Canada. Using ethnographic narratives, Parin Dossa makes a case for a paradigm shift from palliative care to social palliation. Experiences of displacement and resettlement reveal that life and death must be understood as an integrated unit if we are to appreciate what it is like to be awakened to our human existence. In the wake of structural exclusion and systemic suffering, social palliation brings to light displaced persons’ endeavours to restore the integrity of life and death. Dossa highlights the point that death conjoined with life is embedded wit...
