At the age of 19, scared and illiterate, James Pennington, escaped from slavery in 1827 and soon became one of the leading voices against slavery prior to the Civil War. Just 10 years after his escape, Pennington was ordained as a priest after studying at Yale and was soon traveling all over the world as an anti-slavery advocate. He was so well respected by European audiences that the University of Heidelberg awarded him an honorary doctorate, making him the first person of African descent to receive such a degree.

Story1
The first-born son of his generation, Peter Balakian grew up in a close, extended family, sheltered by 1950s and '60s New Jersey suburbia. He was immersed in an all-American boyhood defined by rock 'n' roll, adolescent pranks, and a passion for the New York Yankees that he shared with his beloved grandmother. But beneath this sunny world lay the dark specter of the trauma his family and ancestors had experienced: the Turkish government's extermination of more than a million Armenians.

Story0
Signing Their Rights Away chronicles a moment in American history when our elected officials knew how to compromise - and put aside personal gain for the greater good of the nation. These men were just as quirky and flawed as the elected officials we have today: Hugh Williamson believed in aliens, Robert Morris went to prison, Jonathan Dayton stole $18,000 from Congress, and Thomas Mifflin was ruined by alcohol. Yet somehow these imperfect men managed to craft the world’s most perfect Constitution.

Polly, Annie, Elizabeth, Catherine y Mary-Jane son famosas por lo mismo, aunque nunca se conocieron entre ellas. Ellas eran de Fleet Street, Knightsbridge, Wolverhampton, Suecia y Gales. Compusieron baladas, regentearon cafeterías, vivieron en fincas, respiraron el polvo de la tinta de las imprentas y escaparon de traficantes de seres humanos. Lo que sí tuvieron en común fue el año 1888. El año de sus asesinatos.

Tina si chiamava Assunta Adelaide Luigia Modotti. Era nata a Udine nel 1896, da un'umile famiglia. Il padre era un muratore di idee socialiste, lei dovette ben presto lasciare la scuola e lavorare per aiutare la famiglia, poi emigrò negli Stati Uniti dove stavano crescendo i grandi movimenti sindacali. La vita culturale e artistica in fermento a San Francisco, Los Angeles, Hollywood e a Città del Messico le dischiusero la via prima del teatro e del cinema, poi della fotografia.

Pino Cacucci racconta la singolare storia di Jules Bonnot operaio, soldato, autista nientemeno che di sir Arthur Conan Doyle, il creatore di Sherlock Holmes. E il suo sogno di una felicità rabbiosa che lo trasforma in rapinatore (il primo rapinatore che usa l'automobile) e anarchico sanguinario, convinto di dover colpire la società borghese senza mezze misure, creando il caos, facendo parlare i giornali. Cacucci gli oppone il commissario Jouin, vicecapo della Sureté, a cui è stato affidato il compito di fermare con ogni mezzo la banda Bonnot.

Di cosa è fatta la bellezza di una casa, se non della vita di chi la abita? Ma quando accade che un intero popolo si trovi all'improvviso espropriato delle sue dimore, la domanda che passa, amara, di bocca in bocca è soltanto una: che fine fa quella bellezza, e che fine fa l'anima di chi in quelle case, in quei palazzi, in quei giardini, ci ha vissuto, ci ha pianto e ci ha gioito, per una vita intera? Questa storia ha inizio nel 1948, quando gli inglesi, partendo da Israele, lasciarono due popoli in lotta.

He is the star of a hit Broadway musical, the face on the 10-dollar bill, and a central figure among the founding fathers. But do you really know Alexander Hamilton? Rather than lionize Hamilton, Americans should carefully consider his most significant and ultimately detrimental contribution to modern society: the shredding of the United States Constitution. Connecting the dots between Hamilton's invention of implied powers in 1791 to transgender bathrooms and same-sex marriage today, Brion McClanahan shows the origins of our modern federal leviathan.

En 1519, Hernán Cortés acababa de abandonar Cuba para embarcarse en dirección a México. Cuenta con muy poca información sobre su destino, de tal manera que ni siquiera está seguro de si se halla ante un puñado de islas o un continente entero. Cuando, por fin, toca tierra, se cruza en su camino una mujer de tan solo dieciséis años que, con el tiempo, se convertirá en la clave de la expedición española hacia el corazón de México. Esa joven, de nombre Malintzin, le proporcionará a Cortés las claves para adentrarse en un territorio complejo, violento y maravilloso al frente del cual se encuentra una ciudad de fábula: Tenochtitlan.
