Miles Morales is just your average teenager. Dinner every Sunday with his parents, chilling out playing old-school video games with his best friend, Ganke, crushing on brainy, beautiful poet Alicia. He's even got a scholarship spot at the prestigious Brooklyn Visions Academy. Oh yeah, and he's Spider Man. But lately Miles' Spidey-sense has been on the fritz. When a misunderstanding leads to his suspension from school, Miles begins to question his abilities.

El concepto de raza siempre se ha utilizado para ganar y mantener el poder, para crear dinámicas que separan y silencian. Esta notable adaptación del libro Stamped from the Beginning, del Dr. Ibram X. Kendi, ganador del National Book Award, revela la historia de las ideas racistas en Estados Unidos y nos inspira a construir un futuro antirracista.

Zum Aussteigen gehört viel mehr Mut, als nur DIE REGELN zu befolgen. Manchmal braucht es nur eine Minute, um ein ganzes Leben umzukrempeln. Wills Bruder Shawn wurde erschossen. Und Will kennt Die Regeln: nicht weinen, niemanden verpfeifen, sich rächen. Und so wird er den töten müssen, der seinen Bruder getötet hat und er wird ihn mit Shawns Waffe erledigen. Er steigt in den Fahrstuhl, fest entschlossen, sich an DIE REGELN zu halten. Auf dem langen Weg abwärts hält der Lift auf jeder Etage. Und jede Person, die einsteigt, erzählt ihre Geschichte.

A cannon. A strap. Or, you can call it a gun. That's what 15-year-old Will has shoved in the back waistband of his jeans. See, his brother Shawn was just murdered. And Will knows the rules. No crying. No snitching. Revenge. That's where Will's now heading, with that gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, the gun that was his brother's gun. He gets on the elevator, seventh floor, stoked. He knows who he's after. Or does he?

A bag of chips. That's all 16-year-old Rashad is looking for at the corner bodega. What he finds instead is a fist-happy cop, Paul Galluzzo, who mistakes Rashad for a shoplifter, mistakes Rashad's pleadings that he's stolen nothing for belligerence, mistakes Rashad's resistance to leave the bodega as resisting arrest, mistakes Rashad's every flinch at every punch the cop throws as further resistance and refusal to STAY STILL as ordered.

Running. That's all Ghost (real name Castle Cranshaw) has ever known. But Ghost has been running for the wrong reasons -until he meets Coach, an ex-Olympic medallist who sees something in Ghost: crazy natural talent. If Ghost can stay on track, literally and figuratively, he could be the best sprinter in the city. Can Ghost harness his raw talent for speed, or will his past finally catch up to him?

The construct of race has always been used to gain and keep power, to create dynamics that separate and silence. This remarkable reimagining of Dr. Ibram X. Kendi's National Book Award-winning Stamped from the Beginning reveals the history of racist ideas in America, and inspires hope for an antiracist future. It takes you on a race journey from then to now, shows you why we feel how we feel, and why the poison of racism lingers. It also proves that while racist ideas have always been easy to fabricate and distribute, they can also be discredited.

Twenty-four months ago: Neon gets chased by a dog all around the parking lot of a church. Not his finest moment. And definitely one he would have loved to forget if it weren’t for the dog’s owner: Aria. Dressed in sweats, a t-shirt, hair in a ponytail. Aria. Way more than fine.

Jason Reynolds gelingt das Meisterwerk, Dr. Ibram X. Kendis preisgekröntes Sachbuch "Stamped from the Beginning" in eine leichte, für Jugendliche zugängliche Sprache zu übertragen, dabei aber nicht an Tiefe einzubüßen. Tyron Ricketts liest "Stamped", als würde ein Freund die Geschichte des Rassismus in Amerika erzählen.

This story was going to begin like all the best stories. With a school bus falling from the sky. But no one saw it happen. They were all too busy - Jason Reynolds conjures 10 tales (one per block) about what happens after the dismissal bell rings and brilliantly weaves them into one wickedly funny, piercingly poignant look at the detours we face on the walk home, and in life. 

In zehn eindringlichen Geschichten erzählt Jugendbuch-Star Jason Reynolds von den Abenteuern und Herausforderungen, die der Weg von der Schule nach Hause zu bieten hat. Was passiert da, worum kreisen die Gespräche, was für Freuden und Ängste werden gewälzt? Voller Sympathie und Wärme wird von Freundschaft und Einsamkeit, von Schule und Lehrern, von Sorgen und Interessen junger Schüler erzählt - und von den Wundern, die sich auf dem Weg von der Schule nach Hause entfalten können, wenn man nur genau genug hinsieht.

Most kids of color grow up talking about racism. They have “The Talk” with their families - the honest talk about survival in a racist world. But White kids don’t. They’re barely spoken to about race at all - and that needs to change. Because not talking about racism doesn’t make it go away. Not talking about White privilege doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. The Other Talk begins this much-needed conversation for White kids.

This chapter-book edition of the number-one New York Times best seller by luminaries Ibram X. Kendi and Jason Reynolds is an essential introduction to the history of racism and antiracism in America.

Portico Reeves’s superpower is making sure all the other superheroes—like his parents and two best friends—stay super. And safe. Super safe. And he does this all in secret. No one in his civilian life knows he’s actually…Stuntboy! But his regular Portico identity is pretty cool, too. He lives in the biggest house on the block, maybe in the whole city, which basically makes it a castle. His mom calls where they live an apartment building. But a building with fifty doors just in the hallways is definitely a castle.

But how can you stay still when someone is pounding your face into the pavement?
