"Navigating from the White Anthropocene to the Black Chthulucene offers a consideration of Buster Keaton's classic 1924 film, The Navigator, from the combined perspectives of critical race theory, especially Black Studies, and posthumanism. The principle argument that the book puts forward is that Keaton's film exemplifies in its treatment of non-white characters and animals an antiblack logic that also is at work in Keaton's cinema more generally. More than this, the book engages with how Keaton is a central figure in discourses surrounding early cinema, playing a notable role in the film-philosophical thinking of Gilles Deleuze, and in the film-ecological thinking of Jennifer Fay. The book charts, then, how Keaton's film can help to tease out the otherwise unexamined whiteness - and by extension the antiblackness - of both Deleuze's thinking and that of ecological theory more broadly"--

If you're wondering about frogs, you've come to the right place! Here are some interesting facts about these fascinating creatures.

And be sure to check back often for more fun facts about frogs! Did you know that frogs can be deadly to people? Some species of frogs have poison on their skins! Although this is not a direct threat to humans, it can kill predators by inflicting massive damage. Poison dart frogs are a particular concern, as their toxins can cause heart failure and fibrillation. The bright colors of frogs serve as warnings to predators. Many frogs use camouflage as a way to avoid predators. However, some species have evolved special abilities for hiding and camouflage. One species, the White's tree frog, can change its color to match the surrounding temperature. To adapt to a change in temperature, it moves to a warmer, shadier area. Besides being able to change colors, the White's tree frog also tucks its feet and hands into its body to make it harder to detect predators. The Goliath Frog is the largest species of frog. It grows to over one foot (12.5 inches) long and weighs seven pounds. The Goliath Frog is found in West Africa. It can grow up to 15 inches in length and weigh seven pounds. Another species that can reach large sizes is the golden frog, or PAEDOPHRYNE AMANUENSIS. The frog's back legs are long and flexible.

The California Gold Rush began in 1848 when the first miners started collecting large amounts of gold. The news spread quickly throughout the world and thousands of prospective miners flooded into the area. These men, also known as forty-niners, borrowed money, mortgaged their homes, and spent life savings on gold. Many women were left behind to care for the family and run farms. By the end of the gold rush, there were 30,000 men and hundreds of women in the region. The California Gold Rush was a time of incredible economic development for the region. The new economy created new towns and jobs for merchants and entrepreneurs. The gold rush was so successful that it spawned new industries. Blue jeans were created in the 1850s, which were popular for women. Women had more freedom than men in 1849, and could earn higher wages in the process. One woman made $18,000 by baking pies. James Marshall, the man who discovered the gold in California, never made a dime from the Gold Rush. He died penniless in 1885. The California Gold Rush started in 1848 when James Wilson Marshall found gold in the American River in California. He was a sawmill operator at the time, but after the discovery, his sawmill closed. While the majority of Gold Rushers were Americans, immigrants from Latin America, China, Australia, and other countries came to the region to get their share of the gold. Because of the United States' military presence in the area, many of the gold rushers ended up being Canadians.
