Summary:

An exquisite and inspiring memoir about one mothers unimaginable choice in the face of oppression and abuse in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.

In the days before Homeira Qaderi gave birth to her son, Siawash, the road to the hospital in Kabul would often be barricaded because of the frequent suicide explosions. With the city and the military on edge, it was not uncommon for an armed soldier to point his gun at the pregnant womans bulging stomach, terrified that she was hiding a bomb. Frightened and in pain, she was once forced to make her way on foot. Propelled by the love she held for her soon-to-be-born child, Homeira walked through blood and wreckage to reach the hospital doors. But the joy of her beautiful sons birth was soon overshadowed by other dangers that would threaten her life.

No ordinary Afghan woman, Homeira refused to cower under the strictures of a misogynistic social order. Defying the law, she risked her freedom to teach children reading and writing and fought for womens rights in her theocratic and patriarchal society.

Devastating in its power, Dancing in the Mosque is a mothers searing letter to a son she was forced to leave behind. In telling her storyand that of Afghan womenHomeira challenges you to reconsider the meaning of motherhood, sacrifice, and survival. Her story asks you to consider the lengths you would go to protect yourself, your family, and your dignity.

Title: Better Boys, Better Men: The New Masculinity That Creates Greater Courage and Emotional Resiliency

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8:16:16

Language: English

Release date: 12-01-20

Publisher: HarperAudio

Genres: Non-Fiction, Social Science

Summary:

A thought-provoking and much-needed look at how modern masculinity is harming and holding back menand all of societyand what we can do to promote a new masculinity that allows men of all ages to thrive. 

In Better Boys, Better Men, cultural critic and New York Times contributor Andrew Reiner argues that men today are working on an outdated model of masculinity, which prevents them in moments of distress and vulnerability from marshalling the courage, strength, and resiliencythe very characteristics we regularly champion in menthey need to thrive in a world vastly different from the ones their fathers and grandfathers grew up in. According to Reiner, this outdated model of manhood can have devastating effects on the entire culture and, especially boys and men, from falling behind in the classroom and rising male unemployment rates to increased levels of depression and disturbing upticks in violence on a mass scale. 

Reiner interviews boys and men of all ages, educators, counselors, therapists, and physicians throughout the United States to better understand what factors are preventing the countrys boys and men from developing the emotional resiliency they need. He also introduces readers to the boys and men at the vanguard of a new masculinity that empowers them to find and express the full range of their humanity. 

Urgent and necessary, Better Boys, Better Men will change the way we talk about boys and men in America today.

Title: Saving Freedom: Truman, the Cold War, and the Fight for Western Civilization

Author: Joe Scarborough

Narrator: Joe Scarborough

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8:05:54

Language: English

Release date: 11-24-20

Publisher: HarperAudio

Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, Law & Politics, North America, Military

Summary:

History called on Harry Truman to unite the Western world against Soviet communism, but first he had to rally Republicans and Democrats behind Americas most dramatic foreign policy shift since George Washington delivered his farewell address. How did one of the least prepared presidents to walk into the Oval Office become one of its most successful?

The year was 1947. The Soviet Union had moved from being Americas uneasy ally in the Second World War to its most feared enemy. With Joseph Stalins ambitions pushing westward, Turkey was pressured from the east while communist revolutionaries overran Greece. The British Empire was battered from its war with Hitler and suddenly teetering on the brink of financial ruin. Only America could afford to defend freedom in the West, and the effort was spearheaded by a president who hadnt even been elected to that office. But Truman would wage a domestic political battle that carried with it the highest of stakes, inspiring friends and foes alike to join in his crusade to defend democracy across the globe.

In Saving Freedom, Joe Scarborough recounts the historic forces that moved Truman toward his countrys long twilight struggle against Soviet communism, and how this untested president acted decisively to build a lasting coalition that would influence Americas foreign policy for generations to come. On March 12, 1947, Truman delivered an address before a joint session of Congress announcing a policy of containment that would soon become known as the Truman Doctrine. That doctrine pledged that the United States would support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures. The untested presidents policy was a radical shift from 150 years of isolationism, but it would prove to be the pivotal moment that guaranteed Western Europes freedom, the American Centurys rise, and the eventual collapse of the Soviet Union. 

Trumans triumph over the personal and political struggles that confronted him following his ascension to the presidency is an inspiring tale of American leadership, fierce determination, bipartisan unity, and courage in the face of the rising Soviet threat. Saving Freedom explores one of the most pivotal moments of the twentieth century, a turning point when patriotic Americans of both political parties worked together to defeat tyranny.
