In the Pines : A Lynching, A Lie, A Reckoning
Winner of the Mississippi Historical Society Book of the Year Award In this “courageous and compelling … essential and critically important” book (Bryan Stevenson), an award-winning scholar of white supremacy tackles her toughest research assignment yet: the unsolved murder of a Black man in rural Mississippi while her grandfather was the local sheriff—a cold case that sheds new light on the hidden legacy of racial terror in America. A Washington Post Noteworthy Book | An Amazon Best Book of the Month Grace Hale was home from college when she first heard the family legend. In 1947, while her beloved grandfather had been serving as a sheriff in the Piney Woods of south-central Mississippi, he prevented a lynch mob from killing a Black man who was in his jail on suspicion of raping a white woman—only for the suspect to die the next day during an escape attempt. It was a tale straight out of To Kill a Mockingbird, with her grandfather as the tragic hero. This story, however, hid a dark truth. Years later, as a rising scholar of white supremacy, Hale revisited the story about her grandfather and Versie Johnson, the man who died in his custody. The more ... Unknown localization key: "more"

All of this is about to change.After successfully getting himself expelled from every reputable school in the country, Elliot Allagash, the arrogant heir of America''s largest fortune, finds himself marooned at Glendale.

With Elliot as his diabolical guide, Seymour gradually learns about all of the incredible things that money can buy, and the one or two things that it can''t.

The Black Campus Movement - Ibram X. Kendi
In his first book, published in 2012, Ibram X. Kendi provided the first national study of when Black students organized, demanded, and protested against racism in almost every US State between 1965 and 1972. The book illuminated the complex context and prehistory for one of the most transformative educational movements in American history. Based on records from more than three hundred colleges and universities, this authoritative study is essential to understanding modern American higher education.In this second edition, with a new Preface and updates throughout the text, Dr. Kendi reminds us that the antiracist higher education that the students in these pages fought for has yet to be achieved. Referring to this book as “foundational” to his antiracist research and thought, Kendi challenges us to see the parallels between then and now, and to embody the cause anew.Â

A Times Political Book of the Year 2022A powerful and revelatory eyewitness account of the American collapse in Afghanistan, its desperate endgame, and the war’s echoing legacy.Elliot Ackerman left the American military ten years ago, but his time in Afghanistan and Iraq with the Marines and, later, as a CIA paramilitary officer marked him indelibly. When the Taliban began to close in on Kabul in August of 2021 and the Afghan regime began its death spiral, he found himself pulled back into the conflict. The official evacuation process was a bureaucratic failure that led to a humanitarian catastrophe. Ackerman was drawn into an impromptu effort to arrange flights and negotiate with both Taliban and American forces to secure the safe evacuation of hundreds. These were desperate measures taken during a desperate end to America’s longest war, but the success they achieved afforded a degree of redemption: and, for Ackerman, a chance to reconcile his past with his present.The Fifth Act is an astonishing human document that brings the weight of twenty years of war to bear on a single week at its bitter end.

Growing up in Dallas, Texas, in the nineties and early 2000s, Kendra Allen had a complicated, loving, and intense family life filled with desire and community but also undercurrents of violence and turmoil. “We equate suffering to perseverance and misinterpret the weight of shame,” she writes.

At its core, racism is a powerful system that creates false hierarchies of human value; its warped logic extends beyond race, from the way we regard people of different ethnicities or skin colors to the way we treat people of different sexes, gender identities, and body types.

In How to Be an Antiracist, Kendi takes readers through a widening circle of antiracist ideas—from the most basic concepts to visionary possibilities—that will ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Elisabeth Elliot - Selah Helms
Elisabeth Elliot: A Life of SurrenderFrom missionary daughter to courageous witness, Elisabeth Elliot's remarkable journey exemplifies unwavering faith in the face of tragedy and triumph. This captivating biography traces her life from childhood through her years at Wheaton College where she met her first husband, Jim Elliot, and their missionary work in Ecuador. When Jim and four fellow missionaries were martyred by the Auca (Waorani) tribe in 1956, Elisabeth's response shocked the world. Rather than retreating in bitterness, she and her young daughter Valerie eventually went to live among the very people who killed her husband, bringing them the gospel of forgiveness. Through personal loss, widowhood, and later challenges, Elisabeth embraced each circumstance with her signature motto: "In acceptance lieth peace." Her influential books, radio ministry, and counter-cultural teachings on biblical womanhood inspired generations worldwide. Selah Helms presents an intimate portrait of this extraordinary woman whose life exemplified complete surrender to God's will—whether in the jungles of Ecuador or the changing cultural landscape of America. Elisabeth's story continues to challenge and encourage all who seek to follow Christ wholeheartedly, regardless of the cost.

The Reverse Coloring Bookâ„¢: Mindful Journeys - Kendra Norton
It’s like meditation with a pen—with the colors set down you begin to make lines, lines that calm you, lines that inspire you, lines that absorb you, until the world, and your thoughts, fall away and all that’s left is a perfect flow of attention and concentration. It hardly matters what you make. It’s the act of making that liberates you from distraction and busyness. Each of the first two Reverse Coloring books—with over 205,000 copies in print in just a year—frees the imagination and encourages the user to be calm and creative. But Mindful Journeys takes it one step further with 50 new and original watercolors created specifically to promote mindfulness. Abstract compositions in calming blues and greens. A shower of circles that suggests the infinity of the sky. Swirls of flowery patterns that evoke mandalas. Spiritual symbols, like a yin-yang, a hamsa hand, a flaming heart. Watery waves, and a curling peacock feather. The possibilities are endless. Trace, sketch, doodle, shade, cover with dots or make a world of images. And lose yourself in time and space. Images in the book are printed on sturdy paper that’s single-sided and perforated. All you need is your favorite pen.

The Duchess of Malfi, The White Devil, The Broken Heart and 'Tis Pity She's a Whore - John Webster, John Ford
These four plays, written during the reigns of James I and Charles I, took revenge tragedy in dark and ambiguous new directions. In The Duchess of Malfi and The White Devil, John Webster explores the role of women and issues of power, sex and corruption in the Italian court, creating two unforgettable anti-heroines. In The Broken Heart, John Ford questions the value of emotional repression as his characters attempt to subdue their desires and hatreds in ancient Greece. Finally, Ford''s masterpiece ''Tis Pity She''s a Whore explores the taboo themes of incest and forbidden lust in a daring reworking of Romeo and Juliet.Jane Kingsley-Smith has edited the plays from the earliest quartos and added invaluable editorial material, including explanatory glosses and a new introduction that discusses how the playwrights used the theatre to explore issues around women, sex, power and violence. Together with the Penguin volume of Five Revenge Tragedies, edited by Emma Smith, this is the essential sourcebook for drama in the period.

"Od posledního alba jsme bohatší o sedm let životních i hudebních zkušeností. Na nové desce tak zazní vše, co máme rádi," přibližuje kapelník Vojtěch Kalina. Novou desku kapela nahrávala v pražském Barrandov Sound a berlínských Red Bull Studios. "Irský zpěvák Travis O'Neill přinesl do kapely větší cit pro melodické linky a tím se i celkový zvuk posunul více do roviny celtic rockové kapely. Z menších klubů teď Pipes sebevědomě míří na velká pódia, otevírají se širšímu publiku, ale současně si zachovávají tvář," podotýká producent Yarda Helešic. Tracklist: 1.
