A call to courage from a soldier who refused to stand by as antisemitism surged and Western values came under siege. The world is shifting. Antisemitism is on the rise. The West stands at a crossroads. Hatred was once whispered. Now it roars—and too many look away. But what happens when someone outside the Jewish community refuses to stay silent, instead choosing to speak out boldly and without apology?

1974. A 22-year-old Jacqui French stands for a photograph in Omaha, Nebraska, thousands of miles from home. Behind a carefree smile lies a fierce hope, fuelled by the promise of a new beginning and the tapestry of opportunity an America of Gloria Steinem, Dorothy Pitman Hughes, and the newly passed Roe v. Wade, appeared to offer. The world was changing, and women’s fortunes seemed to be changing with it. It was this photo of her mother, discovered by accident decades later, that set Marisa on the path to this book.

This is what we have to deal with as American Africans in America. It does not matter if you are rich or famous, a politician, doctor, lawyer, preacher, and or a teacher, the reality of the grind is presented to you every time you wake up and walk out your door. Whether you are going to work, a a restaurant, or a vacation, the grind follows you. The grind of racism that exist in America against American Africans.

The uprising of 2020 marked a new phase in the unfolding Movement for Black Lives. The brutal killings of Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, and Breonna Taylor, and countless other injustices large and small, were the match that lit the spark of the largest protest movement in US history, a historic uprising against racism and the politics of disposability that the Covid-19 pandemic lays bare. In this urgent and incisive collection of new interviews bookended by two new essays, Marc Lamont Hill critically examines the “pre-existing conditions” that have led us to this moment.

Der brutale Terroranschlag der Hamas vom 7. Oktober ist zu einer Nagelprobe politischer und moralischer Haltung weltweit geworden. Das Schweigen der deutschen Linken und der Jubel muslimischer Einwanderer, die Unterstützung der Palästinenser durch die Klima-Aktivistin Greta Thunberg, die abgerissenen Plakate der Entführten in London, das Entsetzen der Politiker, die die Aufnahmen der Täter gesehen haben–viele Gewissheiten hat der 7. Oktober erledigt. In Deutschland–selbst in Deutschland–zeigt sich der Antisemitismus wieder so offen, dass man vermuten könnte, er wäre nie weg gewesen.

With the troubling and painful events of the last several years - from the shooting of numerous unarmed black men at the hands of police to the rallying of white supremacists in Charlottesville - it is clearer than ever that the reconciliation paradigm, long favored by white Christians, has failed to heal the deep racial wounds in the church and American society. In this provocative audiobook, originally published in 2014, Jennifer Harvey argues for a radical shift away from the well-meaning but feeble longing for reconciliation toward a robustly biblical call for reparations.
