“Somewhere in the tangle of the subject’s burden and the subject’s desire is your story.”-Alex Tizon Every human being has an epic story. The late Pulitzer Prize–winning writer Alex Tizon told the epic stories of marginalized people-from lonely immigrants struggling to forge a new American identity to a high school custodian who penned a New Yorker short story. Edited by Tizon’s friend and former colleague Sam Howe Verhovek, Invisible People collects the best of Tizon’s rich, empathetic accounts-including “My Family’s Slave,” the Atlantic magazine cover story about the woman who raised him and his siblings under conditions that amounted to indentured servitude. Mining his Filipino American background, Tizon tells the stories of immigrants from Cambodia and Laos. He gives a fascinating account of the Beltway sniper and insightful profiles of Surfers for Jesus and a man who tracks UFOs. His articles-many originally published in the Seattle Times and the Los Angeles Times-are brimming with enlightening details about people who existed outside the mainstream’s field of vision. In their introductions to Tizon’s pieces, New York Times executive editor Dean Baquet, Atlantic magazine editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg, Pulitzer Prize winners Kim Murphy and Jacqui Banaszynski, and others salute Tizon’s respect for ...

How People Grow reveals why all growth is spiritual growth and how you can grow in ways you never thought possible.Our desire to grow runs deep. Yet the issues in our lives and relationships that we wish would change often stay the same, even with our best efforts at spiritual growth.

In stories of love and loss, of trauma and hope, told from care homes, living rooms, classrooms and kitchens, All the Lonely People is an intimate portrait of loneliness. Over countless cups of tea, psychologist Dr Sam Carr has collected hours of conversations with people young and old, including single parents, carers, teenagers and the bereaved, and found that while each of their stories is utterly unique, they are all born out of the same desire for human connection.As Carr interweaves these touching and powerful tales with his own personal narrative, he opens a window onto the inner lives of regular people – the forgotten, misplaced or misjudged – who all feel isolated in some way. Sparking a profound conversation about a universal emotion, which may simply be an inevitable part of life, he questions what we can do to build stronger human relationships and be a part of something bigger than ourselves in an increasingly disjointed world.

Robert Knapp seeks out the ordinary people who formed the fabric of everyday life in ancient Rome and the outlaws and pirates who lay beyond it. They are the housewives, prostitutes, freedmen, slaves, soldiers, and gladiators who lived commonplace lives and left almost no trace in history - until now. But their words are preserved in literature, letters, inscriptions and graffiti and their traces can be found in the histories, treatises, plays and poetry created by the elite. A world lost from view for two millennia is recreated through these, and other, tell-tale bits of evidence cast off by the visible mass of Roman history and culture. Invisible Romans reveals how everyday Romans sought to survive and thrive under the afflictions of disease, war, and violence, and to control their fates under powers that both oppressed and ignored them. Their lives - both familiar and foreign to ours today - are shown against the tumult of a great empire that shaped their worlds as it forged the wider world around them.

A multidisciplinary view of how our competitive and cooperative natures make us human  For centuries, people have argued about whether humans are moral animals—good or bad, cooperative or competitive, altruistic or selfish. The debates continue today, dressed up in the language of modern science. In this book, Jonathan R. Goodman makes the case for synthesizing the two sides. Drawing on insights from anthropology, evolutionary biology, and philosophy, he argues that rather than being fundamentally cooperative or competitive, we are capable of being both—and of exploiting each other when there is an opportunity to do so.  The core of invisible rivalry is how we make ourselves and others believe that we are acting cooperatively even as we manipulate those around us for our own benefit. In confronting this collective tendency toward self-interest, Goodman says, we can make the fundamental first step in fixing the breakdown of trust in society. Consequently, we will be better able to combat the myriad issues we face today, including widespread inequality, misinformation in a new technological environment, and climate change.

A viral life coach offers a practical, empathetic, and inspiring guide to breaking people-pleasing patterns that can harm our careers, relationships, and physical and psychic health.For most of Hailey Magee’s life, people-pleasing came so naturally to her that she didn’t even have a word for it. When somebody wanted something from her—even a stranger—she gave it, no matter how uncomfortable, exhausted, or resentful she felt inside. People-pleasing, she learned, was a coping mechanism that had kept her physically and emotionally safe in the past, but wreaked havoc on her life in the present—and she was committed to breaking the pattern once and for all. The solution that social media and self-help shelves gave her was to “Advocate for yourself! Speak up! Set boundaries!” But after years of ignoring her feelings and needs, Magee needed more than boundaries; she needed to reconnect with the “self” who was supposed to be doing the advocating. You can’t express yourself if you’re cut off from your feelings. You can’t fight for your needs if you don’t know what they are. And you can’t set boundaries with others until you believe you’re worthy of more than the bare minimum. Radically reconnecting with herself gave Magee ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A memoir of hard-fought lessons and the price for justice.When the local government in Ferguson, Missouri, and federal authorities failed in their duty to serve justice in 2014, college sophomore Jonathan Pulphus committed to being in the streets and battling for justice in the wake of Michael Brown Jr.''s murder. This story traces a nine-month journey toward justice. Despite mistakes, student activists made extraordinary strides toward transforming the community. Many people aspire to fight for something larger than themselves and to make an impact. Few understand what it takes to sustain a movement. Even fewer know the expenses at which gains are made.People would like for you to believe protest is an ineffective tool for change, but history tells us that student activism has been a formidable force leading to substantive change throughout history. Student activism has played a large role in societal transformation--consider the 1964 Mississippi Delta or Apartheid Soweto. Today''s students continue this legacy but tell a new story, like that of the Ferguson Uprising.We know why people, especially students, become involved in community organizing. But how should students organize? With My People answers this fundamental and crucial question by bringing together ethnography and notes on community-building, taking ...

Why the tools of philosophy offer a powerful antidote to today’s epidemic of irrationalityThere is an epidemic of bad thinking in the world today. An alarming number of people are embracing crazy, even dangerous ideas. They believe that vaccinations cause autism. They reject the scientific consensus on climate change as a “hoax.” And they blame the spread of COVID-19 on the 5G network or a Chinese cabal. Worse, bad thinking drives bad acting—it even inspired a mob to storm the U.S. Capitol. In this book, Steven Nadler and Lawrence Shapiro argue that the best antidote for bad thinking is the wisdom, insights, and practical skills of philosophy. When Bad Thinking Happens to Good People provides an engaging tour through the basic principles of logic, argument, evidence, and probability that can make all of us more reasonable and responsible citizens. When Bad Thinking Happens to Good People shows how we can more readily spot and avoid flawed arguments and unreliable information; determine whether evidence supports or contradicts an idea; distinguish between merely believing something and knowing it; and much more. In doing so, the book reveals how epistemology, which addresses the nature of belief and knowledge, and ethics, the study of ... Unknown localization key: "more"

You can tell a lot about people by how they walk. Matthew Beaumont argues that our standing, walking body holds the social traumas of history and its racialized inequalities. Our posture and gait reflect our social and political experiences as we navigate the city under capitalism. Through a series of dialogues with thinkers and walkers, his book explores the relationship between freedom and the human bodyHow We Walk foregrounds the work of Frantz Fanon, psychiatrist and leading thinker of liberation, who was one of the first people to think about the politics of ‘walking while black’. It also introduces us to the renegade psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich, who wrote that one could discern the truth about a person through their posture and gait. For Marxist philosopher Ernst Bloch, the ability to walk upright and with ease is a sign of personal and social freedom.Through these excursions, Beaumont reimagines the canonical literature on walking and presents a new interpretation of the impact of class and race on our physical and political mobility, raising important questions about the politics of the body.

Životní příběh člověka je jedno dlouhé kroužení kolem vlastního domu. Když se dveře rodného domu nadobro zaklapnou a člověk je nucen opustit svou zem, když se z rodné vlasti dá odejít jedině úprkem, jak uprchnout před zapomněním a před tichem? Héctor Tizón přetavuje paměť ve slova a cestu v přemítání o totožnosti člověka. Román Dům a vítr, poprvé vydaný roku 1984, je zásadním dílem argentinské literatury dvacátého století. Je stezkou člověka, jenž se vzepře tomu, aby každou noc usínal mezi násilníky a vrahy, cestou toho, jenž se nedokáže smířit s útrpným čekáním. Právě tohle bude, přinejmenším v mých poznámkách, blábolivým svědectvím o mém vyhnanství. Já bych si však přál, aby právě toto v době, kdy se lidem nahání strach a hrůza a kdy se zabíjí, bylo rovněž svědectvím o mé lásce k této zemi a k těmto lidem, mým spoluobčanům. Před svým útěkem jsem však chtěl spatřit to, co opouštím. Chtěl jsem naplnit své srdce obrazy, abych pak již svůj život nepočítal léty, nýbrž horami, gesty, nekonečnými tvářemi. Pokud se v něčem, co jsem kdy napsal, odráží stav mé duše, jsou to právě tyto stránky. Ve své předmluvě k poslednímu, definitivnímu vydání Tizón upozorňuje na skutečnost, že "návratu není". Ve ...

Co ve své zemi zanechává ten, jenž z ní odchází? A co v ní nachází ten, jenž se vrací? Z vyhnanství či z dospělosti se člověk vrací na místo, kde se odehrála minulost, do země, jež je stále stejná. Nevinný pohled dítěte a moudrost člověka, který mnoho zažil a viděl, aniž se hnul z místa, se proplétají se zmařenými sny, s dalekou válkou, která probleskne v jediném obrazu: zranění vojáci ve vlaku. Tyto povídky, které Tizón napsal v letech 1958 a 1959, byly poprvé publikovány v roce 1960 v Mexiku. Všudypřítomný prvek a zároveň metaforu v nich představuje vlak, který je symbolem prchavé vize zanikajícího světa i příslibem cesty do daleka a stejně jako Tizónova próza utváří spojnici mezi dvěma světy a kulturami. V emotivní předmluvě sám autor přiznává, že v této knize se nachází "jádro téměř celého mého pozdějšího díla, jež pojednává o čase, cestě, vyhnanství a návratu - má Odysseova jizva".

"Svět je vždycky takový, jaký jej udělá žena." Německý inženýr Strasser přijíždí do odlehlých končin severní Argentiny. Má zde řídit stavbu mostu, který spojí dvě místa, nikdo však dost dobře neví jaká. Se svou ženou Hilde, která ho doprovází, oba prchají z Evropy zmítané válkou ničící svět, přinejmenším ten, který znali. Ale tam, v oné zvláštní krajině, uprostřed horka a neustálého deště, mezi domorodci, kterým nerozumí a jimiž opovrhují, se střetávají s tím, čemu zřejmě chtěli uniknout ze všeho nejvíc: se vzpomínkami. A s myšlenkami na to, co už se nedá vrátit zpět. Hilde se upíná ke smyslné touze a stesku a k přemítání nad sebou sama a svým životem, zatímco Strasser dává průchod svým násilnickým choutkám, jež v něm do té doby dřímaly. Pak je tu Janos, Strasserův maďarský pomocník, pohybující se v těsné Hildeině blízkosti, který do jejich trojúhelníku vnáší napětí, jež by mohlo nadobro skoncovat s jejich životy, nebo je naopak obdařit hledaným smyslem. "Jaký je rozdíl mezi celým životem a jedním okamžikem? V jistém údobí našeho života si myslíme, že neexistují jiné meze než ty, které si sami určíme. Nakonec však pochopíme, že všechno se může udát zničehonic a jednou provždy na nástupišti železniční stanice mezi ... Unknown localization key: "more"
