One of the first studies of the organization, life, and meaning of the Nation of Islam and, by extension, all Black Nationalist movements, this classic work dispels the still-common conception that the movement functioned primarily for political purposes. By observing the daily life of its members, Essien-Udom demonstrates that the Nation of Islam served primarily as a means for poor urban Blacks to attain a national identity, a sense of ethnic consciousness, and empowerment in a society that denied them these privileges.

A social psychologist reveals how to nudge local cultures toward positive structural change by moving people from individual action to collective action.

America's great promise of equality has always rung hollow in the ears of African Americans. But today the situation has grown even more dire. From the murders of black youth by the police to the dismantling of the Voting Rights Act to the disaster visited upon poor and middle-class black families by the Great Recession, it is clear that black America faces an emergency - at the very moment the election of the first black president has prompted many to believe we've solved America's race problem.

It was the 1960s - a time of economic boom and social strife. Young women poured into the workplace, but the “Help Wanted” ads were segregated by gender and the “Mad Men” office culture was rife with sexual stereotyping and discrimination. Lynn Povich was one of the lucky ones, landing a job at Newsweek, renowned for its cutting-edge coverage of civil rights and the “Swinging Sixties.” Nora Ephron, Jane Bryant Quinn, Ellen Goodman, and Susan Brownmiller all started there as well. It was a top-notch job - for a girl - at an exciting place. But it was a dead end.

"On est tous des additionnés", affirmait Romain Gary dans Pseudo. Rachel Khan ne le sait que trop bien. Noire, gambienne, d'origine musulmane et catholique par son père, blanche, juive et française par sa mère, elle est fière de se dire "racée". Mais comment vivre cet excès de "races" à l'heure des replis identitaires où seule la radicalité importe ? Comment se positionner avec ce "pedigree" alors que l'injonction est de choisir un camp ?

Vivimos en la edad del algoritmo. Cada vez más, las decisiones que afectan nuestras vidas no están hechas por humanos, sino por modelos matemáticos. En teoría, esto debería conducir a una mayor equidad: todos son juzgados de acuerdo con las mismas reglas y se elimina el sesgo. Pero como revela Cathy O'Neil en Armas de destrucción matemática, ocurre exactamente lo contrario. Los modelos que se utilizan en la actualidad son opacos, no regulados e incontestables, incluso cuando están equivocados.

In The Team That Changed Baseball: Roberto Clemente and the 1971 Pittsburgh Pirates, veteran baseball writer Bruce Markusen tells the story of one of the most likable and significant teams in the history of professional sports. In addition to the fact that they fielded the first all-minority lineup in major league history, the 1971 Pirates are noteworthy for the team's inspiring individual performances.

When a murderous psychopath goes on a killing spree, law enforcement officials and the media never make his religion the central issue - unless he happens to be a Muslim. Then it sets off another frenzied wave of commentary about the inherent evils that lurk within the Muslim faith. From Fox News talking heads, who regularly smear Muslim leaders as secret terrorists, to Bill Maher, who has made Islam a routine target, it has become widely acceptable to libel a religion with a following of over 1.5 billion people.

Ha ancora senso oggi parlare di Palestina e Israele usando espressioni come "processo di pace", "soluzione a due Stati", "partizione"? Ha senso continuare con un vuoto dibattito politico, facendo il gioco dei sionisti e mantenendo lo stato quo? Le tesi di Noam Chomsky e Ilan Pappe raccolte in questo volume ruotano attorno all'idea che i tempi siano maturi per un cambio di rotta.

In the six years since its initial publication, The Color of Law, “the most forceful argument ever published on how federal, state, and local governments gave rise to and reinforced neighborhood segregation” (William Julius Wilson), has become a landmark work that—through its nearly one million copies sold—has helped to define the fractious age in which we live. Aware that 21st-century segregation continues to promote entrenched inequality, Richard Rothstein has now teamed with housing policy expert Leah Rothstein to write Just Action, a blueprint for concerned citizens and community leaders.

Nonostante Sinti e Rom costituiscano la minoranza più numerosa in Europa, dove sono presenti da più di seicento anni, poco si conosce di loro. Secolari stereotipi razzisti ne deformano l'immagine complessiva, e gravano sulle politiche che li riguardano. Il volume propone una sintetica ma accurata descrizione di tale minoranza, che sotto un'etichetta comune include gruppi regionali, nazionali, linguistici molto differenziati; ne illustra le caratteristiche sociali e culturali, la storia, in particolare quella della persecuzione e dello sterminio perpetrati dal nazismo, e le prospettive nell'attuale situazione europea.

From the editor of the award-winning Children of Manzanar, Heather C. Lindquist, and Edgar Award winner Naomi Hirahara comes a nuanced account of the “Resettlement”: the relatively unexamined period when ordinary people of Japanese ancestry, having been unjustly imprisoned during World War II, were finally released from custody. Given $25 and a one-way bus ticket to make a new life, some ventured east to Denver and Chicago to start over, while others returned to Southern California only to face discrimination and an alarming scarcity of housing and jobs.

Seit Beginn der Frauenbewegung gibt eine bestimmte Art Frauen den Ton an: bürgerliche Frauen aus westlichen Nationen, die vor allem eins sind – 'weiß'. Doch während sie in Vorstandspositionen aufsteigen, bleibt politische Unterstützung für alle anderen Frauen aus. Rafia Zakarias brillante Polemik enthüllt das rassistische Erbe der Frauenbewegung. Sie zeigt, wie der Wunsch nach Gleichberechtigung auf Vorurteilen und Ausbeutung fußt und wie ein gemeinschaftlicher Kampf für politische Teilhabe aussehen kann.

A ralé brasileira: quem é e como vive, clássico do pensamento social brasileiro, confere visibilidade à “ralé brasileira”, uma “classe social” jamais percebida enquanto “classe” entre nós, ou seja, nunca percebida como possuindo uma gênese social e um destino comum, e vista apenas como “conjuntos de indivíduos” carentes ou perigosos. Com base em uma profunda e consistente pesquisa empírica, este audiolivro procura recontar, na dimensão da vida cotidiana, o drama existencial e familiar dos tipos sociais mais encontrados na ralé brasileira.

Por meio de um estudo integrado entre narrativas pessoais e análises teóricas, o audiolivro Pensando como um negro: ensaio de hermenêutica jurídica revela a importância do pertencimento social na hermenêutica jurídica.
