Čekám, až si pro mě v noci přijdou - Tahir Hamut Izgil
Přátelé Tahira Hamuta Izgila zmizeli jeden po druhém. Brutální perzekuce ujgurského národa čínskou vládou probíhala už dlouho, v roce 2017 však nabrala děsivých rozměrů. Ujgurové, převážně muslimská menšina obývající západní Čínu, prožívali ozvěnu největších hrůz dvacátého století zesílenou vševědoucím hi-tech státním dozorem. Přes milion lidí zmizelo v čínských internačních táborech pro muslimské menšiny. Pro Tahira, předního básníka a intelektuála, nebyla perzekuce nic nového. Při pokusu vycestovat do zahraničí v roce 1996 jej policie zadržela a mučila tak dlouho, dokud se nedoznal ke smyšlenému obvinění a neskončil v převýchovném pracovním táboře. Přestože tam musel přežít tři roky, nikdy by si nedokázal představit, jak radikální bude o dvacet let později odpověď čínské vlády na ujgurskou otázku. Byl prvním náznakem Tahirův mnohahodinových výslech poté, co si telefonoval s kamarádem básníkem z Nizozemska? Nebo to bylo tehdy, když jeho starého přítele odsoudili na doživotí čistě proto, že volal po dodržování ujgurských občanských práv? Anebo to snad mohl začít tušit, když policie zabavila Ujgurům rádia a nainstalovala rušičky, aby je odřízla od vnějšího světa? Jakmile si Tahir všiml, že se park poblíž jeho domova v podstatě vylidnil, protože většina jeho sousedů skončila za mřížemi, věděl, že si policie může kdykoliv přijít i pro něj. Jednou ...

Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson, the authors of the New York Times bestseller Rework, are back with a manifesto to combat all your modern workplace worries and fears.It Doesn’t Have to Be Crazy at Work is a direct successor to Rework, the instant bestseller that showed readers a new path to working effectively.

Rather, it’s less waste and fewer things that induce distraction, always-on anxiety and stress.It is time to stop celebrating crazy and start celebrating calm.Fried and Hansson have the proof to back up their argument.

I was bored, angry, tired and sad. I felt all alone yet I had nothing to complain about. I had a good job, a husband who as far as I could tell wasn't shagging his assistant, three children who apart from being the occasional assholes were pretty good kids; a house, a dog and everything else we are told as little girls we should aspire to. But inside, I was growing restless. I was sick of having the same dull conversations about meal plans and kid-friendly holidays. I was frustrated with having the same married sex I'd been having for the past seven years, or not having any sex at all. I didn't want to be looked at as just a 'mom'. I wanted to be desired, to make someone's hair stand on end and go crazy for me. I didn't want to live by some label that didn't represent me. I looked at my messy SUV after my yoga class one morning and I wanted to vomit on it all.

A new generation is going to church. But is the church ready?Church consultant and researcher, Thom Rainer, believes God is at work in this generation, and he believes that this moment in time has created unique opportunities for churches to grow, thrive, and revive.The culture is at inflection point. Nearly two-thirds of Gen Zers reported experiencing at least one mental health problem in the past two years. This statistic was lower for all older generations, including Millennials (51%), Gen Xers (29%) and Boomers (14%). Gen Z is the loneliest generation of Americans, lacking deep relationships and offline connection. Sixty-eight percent of Gen Z feel like nobody knows them well. That is one reason why this generation is called the anxious generation. Researchers have identified everything from social media to pandemic lockdowns as the prime culprit of why Gen Z is struggling with issues like mental illness more than other generations.Thom Rainer views the church as God’s Plan A for helping this generation discover their true calling and thrive in a purposeful and genuine faith community.
