  The Big Teal

  ‘We will not achieve net zero in the cafes, dinner parties and wine bars of our inner cities.’ Little infuriated the forgotten people of the twenty-first century—women and younger voters, especially—more than Scott Morrison’s deluge of disparagement on the issues that mattered to them. The May 2022 election marked the great re-engagement of those ignored and patronised for too long on climate, integrity and gender equity.The electoral map has been dramatically redrawn. However, the triumph of the ‘teals’ was not entirely unexpected to those assisting their rise, such as Climate 200 founder Simon Holmes à Court. As Australia entered its lost decade on climate action, he observed that conventional advocacy had become a case of diminishing returns, and that Cathy McGowan’s election as a community independent in 2013 provided a template for direct political engagement. The result was Climate 200, a crowdfunded outfit intended to provide the money and expertise to better match the major parties and turbocharge the grassroots movement emerging in thirty-plus electorates.Despite a relentless and increasingly shrill campaign of vilification aimed at Holmes à Court and the candidates by the Liberals, assisted by their media mates, we saw the election of six new community independent MPs and one senator. It was a victory of facts over fear, priorities over prejudice. It was a blow to the unfit-for-purpose ‘majoritariat’, a rejection of the false binary choice between parties that no longer reflect the hopes and complexity of modern democratic Australia.This is the story of how a team of inspired young tech-heads and older sages used their real and virtual-world experience to help a cluster of communities get the representation they wanted.

  The Berlin Airlift - Lifeline to...

  In the aftermath of World War II, Europe lay in ruins. Cities were reduced to rubble, economies had collapsed, and millions of people were displaced. Among the most devastated was Germany—a nation carved into four occupation zones controlled by the victorious Allied powers: the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and the Soviet Union. Berlin, the capital, although deep within the Soviet zone, was similarly divided into four sectors. This uneasy arrangement planted the seeds for future conflict. 
  The relationship between the former wartime allies quickly deteriorated. While the Western Allies sought to rebuild Germany along democratic and capitalist lines, the Soviet Union pursued a different vision. Stalin aimed to establish a buffer of satellite states and extend communist influence throughout Eastern Europe. These conflicting ideologies clashed most visibly in Germany, and particularly in Berlin, where the presence of Western powers in the heart of Soviet-controlled territory was seen as a threat. 
  Economic recovery in the Western zones moved quickly with the introduction of the Marshall Plan in 1948, which provided massive American aid to help rebuild war-torn Europe. The Soviets, however, rejected the plan and forbade its acceptance in the Eastern Bloc, viewing it as a tool of Western domination. In West Berlin, the flow of goods, reconstruction efforts, and the adoption of a new currency—the Deutsche Mark—marked a tangible difference in quality of life and future prospects compared to East Berlin and the Soviet zone.

  Stillborn - Grieving and...

  Losing a child before they take their first breath is an indescribable pain—one that lingers in the heart, reshaping the world as we know it. No parent expects to say goodbye before they say hello. Yet, for those who have experienced stillbirth, this heartbreaking reality becomes a defining moment, one that forever alters their journey through life. The silence of a delivery room, the emptiness of arms that were meant to cradle, and the dreams that vanish in an instant—these are the wounds that so many carry, often in solitude.  
    
  Grief after stillbirth is unique. It is a grief that comes with memories that were never made, with birthdays that will never be celebrated, and with a love so strong yet without a place to go. It is a pain that is often misunderstood, leaving parents feeling isolated in their sorrow. This book is a space for that grief—a place where your pain is acknowledged, your baby is remembered, and your heart is given permission to heal in its own time.  
    
  In the aftermath of loss, many parents struggle to find words for their emotions. The world around them often moves on too quickly, expecting them to heal at a pace that feels impossible. Friends and family may not always understand, unintentionally offering words that hurt more than they heal. Some parents are left feeling as though their baby’s existence is slipping away, as if their grief is something to be hidden or minimized. But your love for your child does not fade, and neither should their memory.

  Journalist Shomari Wills’s great-great-uncle, John Mott Drew, was a millionaire. His father had been a slave, and his story made Shomari realize that African Americans’ early achievements are often little known. At the time, it was revolutionary for an African American to become rich. In Black Fortunes (2018), Shomari tells the success stories of America’s first black millionaires, including Mary Ellen Pleasant, Robert Reed Church, O.W. Gurley, Hannah Elias, Annie Turnbo Malone, and Madam C.J. Walker. They were often attacked and demonized for their race and achievements, but this did not stop them from securing their legacy. They built towns, cultures, and helped change the course of history for black people.
