  • No Road Leading Back: An Improbable Escape from the Nazis and the Tangled Way We Tell the Story of the Holocaust by Chris Heath
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/697199 to listen full audiobooks. Title: No Road Leading Back: An Improbable Escape from the Nazis and the Tangled Way We Tell the Story of the Holocaust Author: Chris Heath Narrator: Vas Eli Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 21 hours 14 minutes Release date: September 3, 2024 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: This by turns shattering and hope-giving account of prisoners who dug their way to freedom from the Nazis is both a stunning escape narrative and an object lesson in the ways we remember and continually forget the particulars of the Holocaust. No Road Leading Back is the remarkable story of a dozen prisoners who escaped from the site where more than 70,000 Jews were shot in the Lithuanian forest of Ponar after the Nazi invasion of Eastern Europe in 1941. Anxious to hide the incriminating evidence of the murders, the S.S. later in the war enslaved a group of Jews to exhume every one of the bodies and incinerate them all in a months-long labor—an episode whose specifics are staggering and disturbing, even within the context of the Holocaust. From within that dire circumstance emerges the improbable escape made by some of the men, who dug a tunnel with bare hands and spoons while they were trapped and guarded day and night—an act not just of bravery and desperation but of awesome imagination. Based on first-person accounts of the escapees and on each scrap of evidence that has been documented, repressed, or amplified since, this book resurrects their lives, while also providing a complex, urgent analysis of why their story has rarely been told, and never accurately. Heath explores the cultural use and misuse of Holocaust testimony and the need for us to face it—and all uncomfortable historical truths—with honesty and accuracy.

In People, Power, Change Ganz offers students, educators, and organizers access to the craft he has learned, adapted, and shared over the last half-century of creating effective collective action. It is not a blueprint, but a road map. Ganz explores the values, ideas, and craft core to the practice of organizing and offers an actionable framework for how to actually do it. He focuses the book on the creation and substance of relationships, the fuel of values and narrative, the resources and power of strategy, the necessity of structure, and the accountability of action. Across these five organizing practices, Ganz weaves in his personal experiences from a lifetime of organizing in iconic social movements and campaigns to illustrate how collective action actually works and to build the practices and skills that must be developed to do it with intention and with success.“If there was ever a moment when this message needed to be heard, this is it! Read it, and then get to work!”—Bill McKibben, founder of 350.org and Third ActThis audiobook contains a supplemental PDF.

Title: Fear Itself: Exposing the Left’s Mind-Killing Agenda Author: Tammy Bruce Narrator: Tammy Bruce Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 48 minutes Release date: July 23, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 1 of Total 1 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: As progressive policies get more extreme—and challenging them becomes more dangerous—the left expects us to submit to the madness. “Leave this to your betters,” they tell us, as the left and our bureaucratic state refine the weaponizing of fear, gaslighting us into a new normal of chronic dread and anxiety with one goal in mind: unprecedented government control over our lives. COVID, climate change, systemic racism, terrorist parents, identity politics, vandalizing language, cancel culture—from vague designer threats to an endless array of arbitrary rules, the left’s scam to kill our minds follows a predictable pattern: • Cut us off from our friends and family • Gaslight us • Tell us we misremember the past • Break down our confidence • Shame us • Fill us with a fear of everything It's time to turn the tables and end this abusive manipulation once and for all. And former liberal activist and Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce shows how. In Fear Itself, you’ll see that none of this is normal nor is it organic. And, most important, you’ll see that it can be defeated. Overcoming the weaponization of fear first requires recognizing it. Once we’re no longer in the dark, defeating it becomes second nature as we take back control of our lives and the destiny of our country.

Title: [Spanish] - Pasajes de la Guerra Revolucionaria: Congo Author: Ernesto Che Guevara Narrator: Ernesto Rimbaut, Irene Machado, Ignacio Rodríguez De Anca, Ramsés Ramos Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 18 minutes Release date: May 28, 2024 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: En abril de 1965, el Che Guevara se marcha de La Habana al Congo para dirigir a 200 veteranos cubanos que asisten al movimiento de liberación africana contra los colonialistas belgas, cuatro años después del asesinato del presidente socialista democráticamente electo, Patrice Lumumba. Porque el diario trata el admitido 'fracaso' del Che, examina cada detalle doloroso de lo sucedido para poder extraer enseñanzas constructivas para futuros movimientos guerrilleros. Único entre sus libros, Pasajes de la Guerra Revolucionaria: Congo es un retrato del Che brutalmente honesto que ilustra su capacidad como cuentista; en sus relatos de los fascinantes episodios de conflicto armado de la guerrilla no hay hesitación, endulzamiento o jerga. Algunos lo consideran el mejor libro del Che, también es uno de los pocos que editó para la publicación luego de escribirlo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION  Ernesto Che Guevara's diary of his revolutionary struggle in Congo alongside Cuban guerrillas. In April 1965, Che Guevara set out clandestinely from Havana to Congo to head a force of some 200 veteran Cuban soldiers to assist the African liberation movement against Belgian colonialists, four years after the assassination of the democratically elected socialist president of Congo, Patrice Lumumba.   This diary deals with what Che admits was a 'failure,' and he examines every painful detail about what went wrong in order to draw constructive lessons for planned future guerrilla movements. Unique among his books, Congo Diary gives us Che's brutal honesty and his story-telling ability as he recounts this fascinating episode of guerrilla warfare unblinkingly and without sugar coating or jargon. Considered by some to be Che's best book, it is also one of the few that he had a chance to edit for publication after writing it.

In this compelling book, written by one of Britain's top experts in youth justice, Aika Stephenson reveals the extraordinary cases she deals with daily. From the obviously vulnerable to the A-grade student from a stable upbringing, Just for Kids Law, the campaigning charity co-founded by Stephenson in 2007, has helped thousands of children and young people overcome the difficulties they face. Aika says: ‘Every day in my job is an adventure, a battle for justice, heart-breaking, and a joy. But very few people truly understand the law that dictates the lives of our young people, and I want to share that with the public – both the heart-warming successes and the shocking failures of the system.' From playground mischief to issues with immigration status, from housing to those facing years behind bars for a crime their friend committed, this book lays bare what really goes on behind the scenes, from the police station through to the young offenders' institution and everything in between. It is an important and revelatory book that confronts the issues that face all young people today.

Learn from one of our leading conservative voices how we can return to the biblical values our nation was founded upon, especially the vital importance of the family, in order to secure a prosperous future for generations to come. Does America no longer feel like home? Widespread divorce rates, the erosion of traditional marriage, the popular rise of radical ideologies, attacks on faith, and government interference are only a few of the factors contributing to the struggles of families in our culture. And because of the importance of healthy families to every part of our national life, the breakdown of the family threatens to rob us of the country we love. But it doesn't have to be this way. Like many of us, Dr. Ben Carson fears we are losing the country we love. In this provocative and ultimately hopeful book, he gives us the facts, inspiration, and theory-to-action answers we need to restore a key foundation of America: the family. The Perilous Fight equips us to understand: - The hard data behind the breakdown of the family and its effects on our society, including poverty, crime, and deteriorating education - The core biblical beliefs that led our nation into unprecedented freedom and prosperity--and why abandoning those beliefs led to the social decline we see today - The fresh ideas and public policy options that could reverse negative trends impacting the family while maintaining a balance between constitutional freedoms and governmental involvement   This is a practical and inspiring book for anyone who: - Feels discouraged about the state of our country and its institutions - Needs hope that there are commonsense, attainable solutions that we all can practice - Appreciates a conservative, Scripture-based approach to restoring faith, liberty, community, and life in America   Strong families are the cornerstone of strong communities. Strong communities build a strong nation. Only when we prioritize the family as an institution established by God will we proudly remain the land of the free and the home of the brave.

  • [Spanish] - Por qué Ucrania by Noam Chomsky

Title: [Spanish] - Por qué Ucrania Author: Noam Chomsky Narrator: Sergio Lonardi, Luis Carlos De La Lombana, Luciana Falcón Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 21 minutes Release date: May 7, 2024 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: En este libro, Noam Chomsky expone las causas de la invasión de Ucrania iniciada por Rusia en febrero de 2022, partiendo de dos premisas fundamentales: por un lado, estamos ante «un grave crimen de guerra por el que hay que buscar explicaciones, pero que no tiene ni justificaciones ni atenuantes»; por el otro, estamos asistiendo a un movimiento expansivo de la OTAN hacia el este, que merece ser destacado y analizado. A lo largo de ocho entrevistas que citan documentos confidenciales y explican las dinámicas más complejas de las relaciones entre Rusia, Estados Unidos, la Alianza Atlántica, la UE y China, Chomsky ofrece al lector lo que los medios de comunicación raramente logran proporcionar: la posibilidad de comprender las razones más profundas del conflicto y lo que en ello está en juego, reflexionando a la vez sobre las consecuencias y las reacciones a nivel económico, político y militar en el resto del mundo. Acompañan las entrevistas unos textos del politólogo Pablo Bustinduy, cuyo foco analítico se centra en el papel de Europa ante la guerra ruso-ucraniana y en la necesidad de la UE de encontrar su lugar dentro del nuevo orden internacional del siglo XXI.

  • Sister in Law: Fighting for Justice in a System Designed by Men by Harriet Wistrich
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/703084 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Sister in Law: Fighting for Justice in a System Designed by Men Author: Harriet Wistrich Narrator: Catherine Bailey Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 4 minutes Release date: May 2, 2024 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. Only 30 years ago, rape within marriage was not a crime, Judges saw rape victims as complicit for wearing short skirts; teenage runaways were groomed, pimped and then arrested as ‘common prostitutes’, and harassment, stalking, forced marriage and honour-based violence were not defined or recognised as separate offences in law. Since then there have been important legislative reforms but the law is only as good as those who enforce it. Telling the stories of a series of ground-breaking cases, Harriet Wistrich illustrates how far misogyny is baked into our justice system. Among the women she has represented are Emma Humphreys and Sally Challen, both of whose murder convictions were overturned in watershed moments, the victims of serial rapist, taxi-driver John Worboys, and the wives and girlfriends of undercover police who were fraudulently deceived into long-term relationships and illegally spied upon. Her work has involved direct challenges to government departments and cabinet ministers, the police, the Crown Prosecution Service, the immigration service, and the Parole Board. It provides critical insight into the many ways issues relating to violence against women intersect with racism, state violence and lack of accountability. And it shows how bringing a feminist lens to legal issues has led to creative solutions and inspiring partnerships. This important work demands tenacity, compassion and collaboration, but Wistrich shows that it is imperative that we demand better justice and that it is possible to bring about important change. ©2024 Harriet Wistrich (P)2024 Penguin Audio

Title: Plans For Your Good: A Prime Minister's Testimony of God's Faithfulness Author: Scott Morrison Narrator: Scott Morrison, Mike Pence Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 28 minutes Release date: April 30, 2024 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Read by the author. Scott Morrison, Australia's 30th Prime Minister (2018-2022), offers a unique insider's account of a Christian who was open about his faith and operated at the top level of politics for more than a decade. During one of the toughest periods since the second world war, covering drought, wildfires, a global pandemic and recession, he chronicles God's faithfulness throughout, win or lose, public criticism or public success. Less political memoir and more pastoral encouragement, Morrison is passionate about encouraging others to discover how they can access and see the many blessings of God in their own lives, no matter their circumstances, drawing on Jeremiah 29:11, that God's plans are for our good and not our harm, to give us a future and a hope. In each section Morrison asks the questions all of us are looking to find answers to: - Who am I? Discovering your purpose. - How should I live? Finding your pathway. - What should I hope for? Embracing your future.   Full of fascinating insights into the handling of some of the most significant global events and issues of our time Morrison's honest, vulnerable and reflective answers offers a unique lens to better understand your relationship with God and the blessing that can flow from such a relationship. Alongside an account of high-level politics in a new media age where cancel culture, identity politics and deep secularization is taking hold across so many western societies, creating a truly post Christian west, Morrison testifies to the faithful love and blessings of God.
