Gang violence and mass shooting prevention are critical issues in the contemporary world. It is first and foremost a matter of life preservation. These violent acts result in the unfortunate demise of innocent lives, and it is a fundamental responsibility to safeguard communities and individuals from the profound repercussions of trauma and violence by preventing their occurrence.

During World War II, Port Chicago was a segregated naval munitions base on the outer shores of San Francisco Bay. On July 17, 1944, an explosion rocked the base, killing 320 men — 202 of whom were Black ammunition loaders. In the ensuing weeks, White officers were given leave time and commended for heroic efforts, whereas 328 of the surviving Black enlistees were sent to load ammunition on another ship. When they refused, 50 men were singled out and charged — and convicted — of mutiny. It was the largest mutiny trial in US naval history.

The reasons behind this escalating violence and the cultural forces that have impugned a generation is the subject of this important new book.

Politicians from all sides compete to convince us they can fix our immigration “problem”, but all the solutions on offer look remarkably similar. Apparently, if we want less inequality at home, we need less immigration from abroad. But what if this assumption is wrong? What if the drive to restrict migration isn’t reducing poverty here, but creating a migration system that is actually exacerbating local inequality? In The Huddled Masses, migration researcher Katy Long shows why we need to rethink the relationship.

We are living in a world of deception. We are constantly deluded and manipulated to do as we are told. It is often a very subtle system of control, but sometimes it is so obvious that nobody would even believe it.

But as facts emerged in the days after Nisman’s death, the public outcry for justice grew into a roar.

Invisible Men provides an eye-opening examination of how mass incarceration has concealed decades of racial inequality. Pettit marshals a wealth of evidence correlating the explosion in prison growth with the disappearance of millions of Black men into the American penal system.

If you think that most of the world consists of unicorns and rainbows, think again. Perhaps you think that living in the West is particularly harsh and that the problems we face in the United States or Europe are more brutal than in other parts of the world. Again, think again.
