Um retrato íntimo e nuançado de Martin Luther King Jr., nesta que é mais abrangente biografia já escrita sobre ele. Martin Luther King Jr. é dos "pais fundadores" dos Estados Unidos. Essa ideia, que à primeira vista pode soar excêntrica, ganha consistência — e se torna até tímida — com a leitura desta biografia, fruto de pesquisa exaustiva e baseada em arquivos do FBI só agora liberados pela Casa Branca. Aliás, podemos ir mais longe e ver King como um dos fundadores da própria democracia liberal moderna.

When the bodies of two Black men were found sitting with a crackpipe in a parked car in a rundown section of town in 1994, it seemed just another day in Kansas City, Kansas. The swift arrest and conviction of a seventeen-year-old Black kid from a broken home raised no eyebrows either. And yet, thirty years later, Lamonte McIntyre would prove to be the David that took down the Goliath of corruption that had long controlled the city’s power structure and enveloped the city’s justice system.

In 2018, artist and activist Erin Darcy launched In Her Shoes – Women of the Eighth, an online project where Irish women anonymously shared the realities of abortion under the Eighth Amendment. Within months, hundreds of stories poured in, breaking decades of taboo and helping shift public opinion before Ireland's historic vote to repeal the Amendment that May. Garnering over 100,000 followers and global media attention, the project became both a national reckoning and a personal act of healing for Darcy, who transformed grief into activism.

Este no es un manual ni otra aburrida lectura sobre diversidad, equidad e inclusión, como las charlas (casi sermones) de sensibilización que dan las empresas. NO vas a encontrar historias de superación ni condescendencia, pero sí muchas anécdotas de la vida real. Aquí NO vas a recibir regaños ni juicios por los discursos que te tocó aprender en la escuela, en la tele o en casa por el simple hecho de nacer en una determinada época.

«Ordine compagni!» è la frase che risuona tra i cordoni di manifestanti incaricati di salvaguardare la compattezza e la sicurezza del corteo. È il Sessantotto, si aprono gli anni delle rivolte e delle stragi; quelli passati alla storia come "anni di piombo", solcati dalla paura e dalla voglia di cambiare il mondo, dal desiderio di riscatto e dalla lotta politica. Il Servizio d'ordine si identifica quindi come il braccio armato che coordina e protegge studenti e operai scesi in piazza, i rivoluzionari, i ribelli, i sognatori.

Fue entonces cuando Isa, tras sobrevivir milagrosamente al terremoto, decidió compartir para siempre su vida con ese país.

Before hashtags, before marches filled with megaphones, there was one man in a loincloth—walking hundreds of miles to make salt. Gandhi: Salt, Soul, and the End of Empire isn’t your textbook history. It’s the real, raw breakdown of how a soft-spoken lawyer became the living symbol of resistance—not through war, but through will. This book unpacks how one man faced the British Empire—the most powerful force on Earth—armed only with truth, hunger strikes, and a refusal to play by the rules. It’s not a worship piece. Gandhi wasn’t perfect.

Twenty-five years old and struggling to find his way in his journalism career, the young reporter who had been covering local political stories found himself smack in the middle of the world's biggest geopolitical crisis—fleeing air raids and being questioned by militants along the way. One year later when Hamas carried out its October 7th attack, Sherman flew right back into thick of it—running from rockets and diving into Hamas tunnels in Gaza. While shrouded in the proverbial "Fog of War," it became clear to Sherman that the world isn't as simple as he thought it was.
