Summary:

The stage on which we play our little dramas of life and love has for most of us but one setting. It is furnished out with approximately the same things. Characters come, move about, and make their final exits through long-familiar doors. And the backdrop remains approximately the same from beginning to end. Palace or hovel, forest or sea, it is the background for the moving figures of the play.

Sara Lee Kennedy had a backdrop that had every appearance of permanency. The great Scene Painter apparently intended that there should be no change of set for her. Sara Lee herself certainly expected none.

But now and then, amazing things are done on this great stage of ours: lights go down; the backdrop, which had given the illusion of solidity, reveals itself transparent. A sort of fairyland transformation takes place. Beyond the once solid wall, strange figures move ona new mise-en-scène, with the old blotted out in darkness. The lady, whom we left knitting by the fire, becomes a fairySara Lee became a fairy, of a sortand meets the prince. Adventure, too; and love, of course. And then the lights go out, and it is the same old backdrop again, and the lady is back by the firebut with a memory.

This is the story of Sara Lee Kennedys memoryand of something more. Youll hear all about it.

Title: Becoming Abolitionists: Police, Protests, and the Pursuit of Freedom

Author: Derecka Purnell

Narrator: Karen Chilton

Format: Unabridged

Length: 14:23:55

Language: English

Release date: 10-05-21

Publisher: Blackstone Audiobooks

Genres: Non-Fiction, Social Science

Summary:

For more than a century, activists in the United States have tried to reform the police. From community policing initiatives to increasing diversity, none of it has stopped the police from killing about three people a day.

Millions of people continue to protest police violence because these solutions do not match the problem: the police cannot be reformed.

In Becoming Abolitionists, Purnell draws from her experiences as a lawyer, writer, and organizer initially skeptical about police abolition. She saw too much sexual violence and buried too many friends to consider getting rid of police in her hometown of St. Louis, let alone the nation. But the police were a placebo. Calling them felt like something, and something feels like everything when the other option seems like nothing.

Purnell details how multiracial social movements rooted in rebellion, risk-taking, and revolutionary love pushed her and a generation of activists toward abolition. The book travels across geography and time, and offers lessons that activists have learned from Ferguson, Missouri, to South Africa, from Reconstruction to contemporary protests against police shootings.

Here, Purnell argues that police cannot be reformed and invites readers to envision new systems that work to address the root causes of violence. Becoming Abolitionists shows that abolition is not solely about getting rid of police but a commitment to create and support different answers to the problem of harm in society and, most excitingly, an opportunity to reduce and eliminate harm in the first place.

In early 2020 on a writing sabbatical, Michael Bociurkiw was on Spain's frontier with Gibraltar when his phone started receiving texts from Asia about a mysterious disease sickening hundreds of people in China's Hubei province. Little did he know at the time that it would quickly morph into the deadliest pandemic in modern history. His early reporting and commentary on what would become known as the coronavirus pandemic has now been collated into the first postmortem on the crisis. What follows is a bold global analysis from someone with a truly unique international perspective-and from an experienced hand who's been on the story from the start.

Digital Pandemic chronicles how many technological trends-from working from home and tele-health to distance learning and e-commerce-have been catapulted ahead by at least a decade due to the pandemic. Who got rich and who didn't. How strongmen and authoritarian governments leveraged the pandemic in their favor. Will influencers and digital nomads survive a not-so-familiar "new normal"? Crucially, the book offers more than two dozen predictions to paint a picture of the "new normal."

It may be premature to forecast when and how the Covid-19 pandemic will end but, for now, this book is required listening for anyone wishing to understand the lasting impact-both good and bad-on humanity.
