  • [Spanish] - Causa de muerte: Cuestionar al poder: Acoso y asesinato de periodistas en México by Alejandra Ibarra
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/699751 to listen full audiobooks. Title: [Spanish] - Causa de muerte: Cuestionar al poder: Acoso y asesinato de periodistas en México Author: Alejandra Ibarra Narrator: Alejandra Ibarra Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 33 minutes Release date: July 27, 2023 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Con esta obra Alejandra Ibarra confirma que con la muerte de estos también activistas y defensores de los ciudadanos la libertad de expresión sufre una de las mayores vejaciones. México es uno de los lugares más peligrosos en el mundo para ejercer el periodismo. En nuestro país, a muchos periodistas ocupados en la cobertura de temas locales se les hostiga, amedrenta y asesina por tomar postura sobre las injusticias que revelan, por señalar el abuso del poder y por dar voz a las inquietudes de su comunidad. Alejandra Ibarraexpone en este libro una verdad trágica que llena de dolor e indignación: a numerosos comunicadores en México no se les mata por censura, sino como una forma de castigo por incursionar en la participación política, por señalar la impunidad y corruptelas de funcionarios, alcaldes o aspirantes a gobernadores, por invitar a los ciudadanos a tomar conciencia de los engaños de funcionarios públicos y de las atrocidades del crimen organizado. Y son estos periodistas, que no tienen la atención de los grandesmedios de comunicación, a quienes nadie defiende ni se solidariza con su causa, quienes dan su vida por una sociedad mejor. El libro habla de mujeres que son emboscadas por expresar sus opiniones en radios comunitarias o ejecutadas por denunciar abusos de empresas; de reporteros que con sus propios medios y en diversas plataformas, que van del megáfono a Facebook, alertan de malos manejos de funcionarios o de alcaldesas cegadas por el poder; de periodistas que expusieron las acciones del narco olas trampas de grupos políticos y todos, sin excepción, fueron liquidados por denunciar y exigir la justa rendición de cuentas.

  • The Secret Listener: An Ingenue in Mao's Court by Yuan-Tsung Chen
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/686159 to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Secret Listener: An Ingenue in Mao's Court Author: Yuan-Tsung Chen Narrator: Rebecca Lam Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 28 minutes Release date: July 25, 2023 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: The history of China in the twentieth century is comprised of a long series of shocks: the 1911 revolution, the civil war between the communists and the nationalists, the Japanese invasion, the revolution, the various catastrophic campaigns initiated by Chairman Mao between 1949 and 1976, its great opening to the world under Deng, and the Tiananmen Square Massacre. Yuan-tsung Chen lived through most of it, and at certain points in close proximity to the seat of communist power. Born in Shanghai in 1929, she came to know Zhou En-Lai as a young girl while living in Chongqing, where Chiang Kai-Shek's government had relocated to, during the war against Japan. That connection to Zhou helped her save her husband's life in Cultural Revolution. After the communists took power, she obtained a job in one of the culture ministries. She frequently engaged with the upper echelon of the party and was a first-hand witness to some of the purges that the regime regularly initiated. Eventually, the commissar she worked under was denounced in 1957, and she barely escaped being purged herself. Later, during Cultural Revolution, she and her husband were purged and sent to live in a rough, poor area. They finally moved to Hong Kong, with Zhou's permission, in 1971. Chen gives a first-hand account of what life was like in the period before the revolution and in Mao's China.

  • Into the Bright Sunshine: Young Hubert Humphrey and the Fight for Civil Rights by Samuel G. Freedman
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/685468 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Into the Bright Sunshine: Young Hubert Humphrey and the Fight for Civil Rights Series: Part of Pivotal Moments in American History Author: Samuel G. Freedman Narrator: Mike Lenz Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 9 minutes Release date: July 25, 2023 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: During one sweltering week in July 1948, the Democratic Party gathered in Philadelphia for its national convention. The most pressing and controversial issue facing the delegates was not whom to nominate for president—the incumbent, Harry Truman, was the presumptive candidate—but whether the Democrats would finally embrace the cause of civil rights and embed it in their official platform. On the convention's final day, Hubert Humphrey, the relatively obscure mayor of the midsized city of Minneapolis, ascended the podium. Defying Truman's own desire to occupy the middle ground, Humphrey urged the delegates to 'get out of the shadow of state's rights and walk forthrightly into the bright sunshine of human rights.' Humphrey's speech put everything on the line, rhetorically and politically, to move the party, and the country, forward. To the surprise of many, including Humphrey himself, the delegates voted to adopt a meaningful civil-rights plank. With no choice but to run on it, Truman seized the opportunity it offered, desegregating the armed forces and in November upsetting the frontrunner Thomas Dewey, a victory due in part to an unprecedented surge of Black voters. The outcome of that week in July 1948—which marks its seventy-fifth anniversary as this book is published—shapes American politics to this day.
