Imagine living without clean air. For the people who lived on the doorstep of Monkton Coke Works, their daily reality was a horrendous nightmare of hazardous and acrid sulfur dioxide emissions, all-pervading soot, and clamorous tannoys. Over decades, the facility grew unflaggingly, converting ever-increasing quantities of coal into coke without concern for the residents’ well-being.

Story0
As diverse a lot as they may be, the people who tell their stories in this book share one thing in common. Each is committed to fighting inequality and injustice. Each, too, can pinpoint a moment when they were moved to action, when it became impossible to sit on the sidelines and just watch. In The Moment, New York Times best-selling author Steve Fiffer presents an oral history from today's social justice activists—many of them still under 30—that is pitch perfect for these dissonant times.

Story0
In October 1859, abolitionist John Brown led a raid on the federal armory at Harpers Ferry. His goal was to secure weapons and start a slave rebellion. The raid was a failure, but it galvanized the nation and sparked the Civil War. Still one of the most controversial figures in American history, John Brown's actions raise interesting questions about unsanctioned violence that can be justified for a greater good.

Mitra växer upp i Iran under ayatolla Khomeinis regim, men en demonstration i staden Qum blir startskottet för en revolution som kommer att förändra allt. Mitra går med i motståndsrörelsen MKO, Iranska folkets mujahedin, och får som sjuttonåring en ledarposition inom organisationen. I samband med en demonstration tillfångatas hon och hamnar för första gången i Hizbollahs fängelse. Hon utsätts för tortyr och lever med vetskapen om att varje dag kan bli hennes sista. När hon släpps från fängelset tvingas hon fly, risken för att tillfångatas på nytt är stor; att protestera mot Khomeini är att gå emot Gud.

"Hoffentlich holt der nicht mehr lange Luft." Oder: "Gleich in die Fresse schlagen." Beleidigungen, offener Hass und Gewaltandrohungen dieser Art gehören zum Alltag von Jakob Springfeld. Der 18-Jährige ist einer der wenigen jungen Leute in Sachsen, die sich politisch für das linke Lager engagieren. Der junge Autor kämpft gegen Rechts, gegen Hass und auch gegen seine Angst. Aufgeben kommt für ihn nicht in Frage. Er berichtet von seinen Versuchen, das andere Gesicht Sachsens sichtbar zu machen: Es steht für Toleranz, Antirassismus und Demokratie.

Best-seller #1 du New York Times ! Écrit par Bill Gates, fondateur de Microsoft, entrepreneur et philanthrope.
Admettons-le : notre planète est en crise climatique et énergétique : ici et maintenant. Selon Bill Gates, "Pour arrêter le réchauffement climatique et éviter ses conséquences désastreuses, les humains doivent cesser d'ajouter des gaz à effet de serre dans l'atmosphère. Cela semble difficile, parce que ça l'est. Le monde n'a jamais été confronté à un aussi grand défi." La question à se poser est la suivante : y a-t-il un moyen de s'en sortir ?

In this moving memoir, he shares his journey after he received a terrifying diagnosis: ALS. As the devastating disease robbed him of movement and speech, he was abandoned by his wife and betrayed by a society that shuns people with disabilities. But it’s not all doom and gloom.

For much of American history, women were second-class citizens in the sense they could not vote or run for office and had few property rights. However, women were often able to overcome social restrictions and forcefully affect the world around them, sometimes nationally. This took a real force of character, determination, and sometimes bravery. Women activists focused on issues such as temperance, women’s property rights, improvident or violent husbands, women’s suffrage, cruelty to animals, concern for child labor, and more. This is the story of five such women.

Had Upton Sinclair not written a single book after The Jungle, he would still be famous. But Sinclair was a mere 25 years old when he wrote The Jungle, and over the next 65 years, he wrote nearly 80 more books and won a Pulitzer Prize for fiction. He was also a filmmaker, labor activist, women’s rights advocate, and health pioneer on a grand scale. This new biography of Sinclair underscores his place in the American story as a social, political, and cultural force, a man who more than any other disrupted and documented his era in the name of social justice.
