Honest, objective, and informed political debates are all too rare in today's polarized and partisan climate. Public policy is increasingly driven by ideology while political spin, distortions, and even demonizing opponents by disseminating outright lies are routine practice from Washington to the local city council.

As both an evangelical Christian and a member of the Hollywood community, Coleman Luck has had a unique vantage point from which to view the cultural and political wars of the last decades. It is from this double perspective that he has written The Curse of Conservatism.

A celebration of the revolutionary change Amy and David Goodman have witnessed during the two decades of their acclaimed television and radio news program Democracy Now!—and how small individual acts from progressive heroes have produced lasting results. In 1996 Amy Goodman began hosting a...

Americans have come to tolerate, embrace, and even champion many things that would have horrified their parents' generation - from easy divorce and unrestricted abortion on demand to extreme body piercing and teaching homosexuality to grade schoolers. Does that mean today's Americans are inherently more morally confused and depraved than previous generations? Of course not, says veteran journalist David Kupelian.

In A Time for Action, Rafael Cruz presents a simple underlying message: For Christians, Jesus Christ should be the foundation of the lives they build, and they should be active in making a difference in the world around them. In practical terms, that means that we should strive for a free society that respects each of God's children; we should embrace the Judeo-Christian values of love, joy, and peace; and we should seek relationships with the living God.

Most people who have heard about Ben Carson either have seen the Gifted Hands movie or have heard that he is running for president. Most people do not know about both sides of Ben Carson. Whether you are a fan or find his political views ludicrous, you need to know everything there is to know about the potential United States president.

Can a football game affect the outcome of an election? What about shark attacks? Or a drought? In a rational world the answer, of course, would be no. But as best-selling historian Rick Shenkman shows in Political Animals, our world is anything but rational. This isn't because we aren't smart. Instead, modern cues are setting off ancient, instinctive responses that worked to keep us safe in the Stone Age but lead us astray today.

"The problem with political jokes is they get elected." Let's look at some of the best and the brightest (funniest) moments in our recent political and social history, quotes from the leaders that we so look up to and admire, and even a few celebrities. Why do we give them our undying attention, faith, and hope? Why not pay closer attention to who we're letting speak for and guide us?

Drawing on more than a decade of international reporting for magazines such as Time, Bloomberg Businessweek, and The Atlantic, Faris takes listeners on a 10-year journey along the borders separating war from peace in Liberia, opportunity from deprivation in Kenya, and safety from disaster today in the deadly waters off Lampedusa - an Italian holiday island that has become the scene of a refugee crisis. On the way, he uncovers a series of unsettling but ultimately redeeming parallels between modern immigration practices and the policies of South Africa's apartheid regime.

Mel Hurtig turns his attention to the devastating impact that the Stephen Harper government has had on Canada, radically altering the democratic, social, and economic fabric of the country. He shows how Stephen Harper's single-minded pursuit of big oil and the tar sands, at a time when the world must take dramatic action to arrest climate change, has inflicted enormous damage on our country and international reputation.

Für dieses Hörbuch wurden Aufnahmen zusammengestellt, in denen nicht der Schriftsteller, sondern der Psychologe und Bürgerrechtler Jürgen Fuchs im Mittelpunkt steht. In den Gesprächen schildert er eindringlich die psychischen Folgen von Unterdrückung und Gewaltherrschaft durch das SED-Regime, sowohl auf der sehr persönlichen Ebene als auch im Hinblick auf die gesamte Gesellschaft. Die Gespräche mit ihm sind Dokumente gegen die Verklärung der DDR.

When discrimination is race-based, we call it racism; when it's gender-based, we call it sexism. Somebodies and Nobodies introduces rank-based discrimination - or "rankism" - a form of injustice that everyone knows, but no one sees. It explains our reluctance to confront rankism, shows where analyses based on identity fall short and, using dozens of examples, traces many forms of injustice and unfairness to rankism.

Puerto Rico is a commonwealth of the United States. Many men and women from Puerto Rico have served in the United States military and protected us from harm. In many cases they have not received the honor they are due. This book is written with the intent of giving respect and honor to the many Puerto Ricans who have fought gallantly in our military. It just may open your eyes to the service of those who cannot call the United States their own. Give respect and honor to all who served!

Was kostet mich ein Schritt zurück und was bekomme ich dafür? Ist mein verklärter Blick auf das einfache Leben meiner Kindheit nur ein Trugbild, oder ist der Schritt zurück der erste Schritt nach vorn, um Anlauf zu nehmen und den großen Graben der Verheißungen zu überspringen? Roland...

Narrated by award winning narrator Mike Vendetti, Henry David argues that individuals should not permit governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing such acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican-American War.

Legal luminary Burt Neuborne argues that the structure of the First Amendment as well as of the entire Bill of Rights was more intentional than most people realize, beginning with the internal freedom of conscience and working outward to freedom of expression and finally freedom of public association. This design, Neuborne argues, was not to protect discrete individual rights - such as the rights of corporations to spend unlimited amounts of money to influence elections.
