Story
For American children raised exclusively in wartime - that is, a Cold War containing monolithic communism turned hot in the jungles of Southeast Asia - and the first to grow up with televised combat, Vietnam was predominately a mediated experience. Walter Cronkite was the voice of the conflict, and grim, nightly statistics the most recognizable feature. But as involvement grew, Vietnam affected numerous changes in child life, comparable to the childhood impact of previous conflicts - chiefly the Civil War and World War II - whose intensity and duration also dominated American culture.

Story
A healthy Earth requires healthy children. Yet nearly one-fourth of the world’s children are stunted physically and mentally due to a lack of food or nutrients. During the past 30 years, says Sharman Russell, we have seen a revolution in how we treat these sick children and in how - with a new understanding of the human body and approach to nutrition, and new ways to reach out to hungry mothers and babies - we have gone from unwittingly killing severely malnourished children to bringing them back to health through the “miracle” of ready-to-eat therapeutic food.

Story
Ci sono bambine che imparano presto a truccarsi, a sorridere, a essere simpatiche e maliziose. Sognano di fare le miss o le modelle. Hanno mamme disposte a guidare ore e ore nella notte per portarle a sfilare a Pitti Bimbo e padri capaci di organizzare tour de force per trovare il vestito adatto a un casting. Sono bambine di quattro, cinque, sei anni che popolano un mondo poco noto, spesso nascosto, che si declina attraverso riviste patinate, cataloghi e pubblicità.

Story
During the civil war that ravaged Sierra Leone from 1991 to 2002, an estimated 20,000 children were forced to join the fighting. As villages were raided and youths rounded up, it was not uncommon for a child to be ordered to kill a friend, relative, or neighbor. The goal was to make it impossible for the captives to return home and be accepted back into their communities. Betancourt's study provides insight into the long-term psychological and developmental effects of family separation, war, and exposure to violence.

In ihrem einfühlsamen Plädoyer zeigt die Kinderrechtlerin Eloise Rickman, wie eine Welt aussehen kann, in der Kinder so ernst genommen werden wie Erwachsene. Nicht zuletzt die Pandemie machte sichtbar: Als schwächste Gruppe erleben Kinder Diskriminierung in allen Lebensbereichen–von reformbedürftigen Schulen über steigende Kinderarmut bis hin zu Wahlsystemen, in denen ihre Stimme nicht zählt. Doch all das ist kein Naturgesetz. Wie können wir das Verhältnis zu unseren Kindern so gestalten, dass sie ihre Potenziale frei entfalten können?

Story
Children are not passive victims of oppression, but their resistance and struggle for equality has been largely ignored by the wider social justice movement—until now. In this groundbreaking manifesto, Eloise Rickman argues that it's time to stop viewing children as less than adults and start fighting for their rights to be taken seriously. Radical, compassionate, and profoundly hopeful, this powerful new book signals the start of a long-overdue conversation about how we treat children. It's Not Fair is a call to embrace children’s liberation and the possibility of a better, fairer world.

Story
You need to hear the bad news first: the results of STEM outreach to girls haven’t improved in twenty years. The good news? This book will tell you why, and how to fix it. Currently, dated narratives push girls away in fear, and blind spots result in missed opportunities to pull them in. While efforts to increase diversity in science and mathematics have succeeded, outreach has largely ignored engineering—where there is still only one woman for every five men. This is especially troubling because engineering offers vastly more jobs than other STEM fields.

Este libro es particularmente importante en este sentido.

Story
Wards of the State by journalist and author Claudia Rowe widens an eye-opening case from a true-crime lens to an exploration of the foster care-to-prison pipeline. The system is broken—hundreds of thousands of children every year leave America’s $30 billion dollar foster care system and enter its prisons, where in some cases, 75 percent of inmates are former foster kids. Through the stories of eight former foster kids, Rowe illustrates exactly where, when, and how the system is failing the children that it parents.

Story
Children today grow up in an increasingly volatile, complex and uncertain world. Theirs is a generation disempowered from steering their lives while society’s systems are failing to provide the support they need. Yet, a country only prospers when its children—from all walks of life—thrive, meaning that the United Kingdom now faces some consequential choices. Raising the Nation builds a compelling case showing why we must nurture smart, strong and kind children to one day inherit the stewardship of society.

Most parents want to help their children develop critical thinking skills in order to understand truth and avoid being deceived. Yet this desire doesn’t help someone learn how to actually make it happen. How can parents—how can you—actually raise a critical thinker? Sometimes the best way to learn a truth is to explore its antithesis. Just as darkness helps us better comprehend light, perhaps we can better understand how to raise critical thinkers by considering how we might do the opposite.

Children of a Troubled Time expands our understanding of how the rising generation grapples with the complexities of racism and raises critical questions about the future of American society.

The Promise of Youth Anti-citizenship argues that Black youth and youth of color have been cast as anti-citizens, disenfranchised from the social, political, and economic mainstream of American life. Instead of asking youth to conform to a larger societal structure undergirded by racial capitalism and antiblackness, the volume's contributors propose that the collective practice of anti-citizenship opens up a liberatory space for youth to challenge the social order.
