"When women get together and talk about men, the news is almost always bad news," writes bell hooks. "If the topic gets specific and the focus is on black men, the news is even worse." In this powerful new book, bell hooks arrests our attention from the first minute. Her title--WeReal Cool; her subject--the way in which both white society and weak black leaders are failing black men and youth.

bell hooks reflects on the ways in which the emotional health of black women has been and continues to be impacted by sexism and racism. Desiring to create a context where black females could both work on their individual efforts for self-actualization while remaining connected to a larger world of collective struggle, hooks articulates the link between self-recovery and political resistance.

Ralph Waldo Emerson famously said, “It’s not the destination, it’s the journey.” He must’ve been a Phillies fan. The Philadelphia Phillies, a franchise nearly 150 years old, has only reached its grand destination twice (World Series wins in 1980 and 2008), but it harbors the most fervent fan base in baseball. How? Well, Olive Garden famously said, “When you’re here, you’re family.” The Phillies—warts and all—have been an inextricable part of the city, and the lives of the fans who cheered them on. The team’s story is part of our story.

There is a farm outside La Porte, Indiana, that no longer exists.

Investigators found the remains of several bodies that had been dismembered, wrapped, and buried with the kind of efficiency that suggested someone had done the work many times before.

During the Cold War, the most decisive battles were often the ones no one ever saw. While missiles stood on alert and submarines prowled the oceans, a quieter war unfolded beneath the surface, fought with patience, engineering brilliance, and extraordinary nerve.
