Sinopsis

Resistance Fighters explores the diverse underground movements across Europe during World War II, highlighting their crucial role in undermining Axis occupation. This book examines the courage and ingenuity of ordinary citizens who risked everything to defy the Nazi regime. It delves into the multifaceted forms of resistance, from intelligence gathering and sabotage to armed struggle, revealing that resistance was far from a monolithic effort. Consider, for example, how resistance groups aided escaped prisoners, demonstrating the breadth of their activities. Understanding this diversity is key to appreciating the full scope of resistance.

 
The book progresses chronologically and thematically, beginning with initial responses to occupation and the formation of resistance cells. It then explores key resistance activities in countries like France, Poland, Norway, and Yugoslavia, showcasing the unique challenges and strategies employed in each context. The historical analysis also emphasizes the long-term consequences of these actions, both positive and negative, in shaping post-war Europe.

 
Examining the ideologies that fueled both collaboration and resistance, the book provides valuable insights into the moral dilemmas faced by individuals in occupied territories and the lasting impact of these movements on national identity.

    In this frank, funny, and meticulous book, a leading social scientist lays out the striking facts we know about racism, how we have uncovered them, and how we can start to fix them 
      
    Studies and surveys show, time and again, that about 50 percent of people believe that racism is no longer an issue today. The other half would disagree—vehemently. And much of the writing on the subject of race and racism is equally divisive, in large part because so much of it is based on opinion and personal experience. It’s not grounded in empiricism. It’s not science. 
      
    In The Science of Racism, social psychologist Keon West corrects that idea, moving this urgent conversation beyond anecdote and polemic in search of conclusive answers and solutions. Starting with a fascinating look at experiments around race in hiring, Dr. West brilliantly and methodically walks readers through our comprehensive understanding of this controversial topic. He looks at how racism impacts every stage and all facets of life, from birth to death, in education, work and business, friendships and relationships, police and the justice system, and healthcare. He also looks at the challenges around studying these questions and the ways we can uncover the truth, and then where we go from here: why unconscious bias training can actually make things worse, and what systems and techniques can lead us to a more equitable future.

    Trump and the Protestant...

    This book explores how polarized interpretations of America's past influence the present and vice versa. A focus on competing Protestant reactions to President Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan evidences a fundamental divide over how America should remember historical racism, sexism, and exploitation. Additionally, these Protestants disagree over how the past influences present injustice and equality. The 2020 killing of George Floyd forced these rival histories into the open. Rowley proposes that recovering a complex view of the past, confessing the bad and embracing the good, might help Americans have a shared memory that can bridge polarization and work to secure justice and equality. 
     
     
     
    An accessible and timely book, this is essential for those concerned with the vexed relationship of religion and politics in the United States, including students and scholars in the fields of Protestantism, history, political science, religious studies, and sociology.

    Chicago is a world-class city, but it is also a city in crisis. 
     
     
      
    Crime is up, schools have repeatedly shut down due to conflict between City Hall and the powerful teachers' union, and COVID-19 only deepened the entrenched poverty, institutional racism, and endless tug of war between the city's haves and have nots. 
     
     
      
    For four years, the person at the center of this storm was Lori Lightfoot. A groundbreaking figure—the first Black, gay woman to be elected mayor of a major city and only the second female mayor of Chicago—she knew the city was at a critical turning point when she took office in 2019. But the once-in-a-lifetime challenges she ended up facing were beyond anything she or anyone else saw coming. 
     
     
      
    Chicago Tribune reporter Gregory Royal Pratt offers the first comprehensive behind-the-scenes look at the tumultuous single term of Mayor Lightfoot and the chaos that roiled the city and City Hall as she fought to live up to her promises to change the city's culture of corruption and villainy, reform its long-troubled police department, and make Chicago the safest big city in America.
