Although women have long been members of the labour force, the proportion of domestic, caring, and community work they provide compared to men or the state has yet to decrease substantially. Beyond Caring Labour to Provisioning Work offers a powerful new framework for understanding women's work in a holistic sense, acknowledging both their responsibilities in supporting others as well as their employment duties. Beyond Caring Labour to Provisioning Work is based on a four-year, multi-site study of women who are members of contemporary community organizations. The authors reveal the complex ways in which these women define and value their own work, investigating what supports and constrains their individual and collective efforts. Calling on the state to assist more with citizens' provisioning responsibilities, Beyond Caring Labour to Provisioning Work provides an excellent basis for new discussions on equitable and sustainable public policies.

The survival of one of Los Angeles's last remaining black cultural centers is being threatened by city politics and a struggling economy. Beyond the Echo of the Drum follows three passionate community members as they strive to secure a positive future for Leimert Park Village, a unique cultural oasis in the midst of LA’s most notorious communities, such as 'The Jungle.' At the heart of the Leimert Park Village business district, a passageway of colorful banners features pioneers of the Civil Rights Movement. Along the sidewalk below, the 'Sankofa Passage' serves as a reminder of the West African proverb to embrace the good of the past in moving toward the future. Nearby, Damien, a young political activist, guides us through the daily life and struggles of residents and merchants in the area. He fights to bring new life to this village by securing a Metro stop on the incoming Crenshaw Rail Line. In the midst of the bustle of the busy Crenshaw corridor, Patrick, a muralist, paints a 40-foot mural on the empty wall of a liquor store. As he struggles to make ends meet, he toils night and day to finish his mural in hopes of inspiring a community, burdened by the daily grind. Just a few blocks north at the gateway of Leimert Park, Tamica, world-class choreographer and daughter of renown Lula Washington, carries on the legacy of her parents at Lula Washington Dance Theater, where she inspires a new generation to embrace their cultural heritage through dance. More than a vivid and colorful portrait of a community, Beyond the Echo of the Drum is a testament to how the efforts of a few individuals can reverberate for the greater good of an entire community.

Bill W. tells the story of William G. Wilson, co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, a man included in TIME Magazine's "100 Persons of the 20th Century". Interviews, recreations, and rare archival material reveal how Bill Wilson, a hopeless drunk near death from his alcoholism, found a way out of his own addiction and then forged a path for countless others to follow. With Bill as its driving force, A.A. grew from a handful of men to a worldwide fellowship of over 2 million men and women – a success that made him an icon within A.A., but also an alcoholic unable to be a member of the very society he had created. A reluctant hero, Bill Wilson lived a life of sacrifice and service, and left a legacy that continues every day, all around the world.
