  A vibrant and illuminating exploration of medieval thinking on women's beauty, sexuality, and behavior. 
   
   
   
  What makes for the ideal woman? How should she look, love, and be? In this high-spirited history, medievalist Eleanor Janega turns to the Middle Ages, the era that bridged the ancient world and modern society, to unfurl its suppositions about women and reveal what's shifted over time—and what hasn't. 
   
   
   
  Enshrined medieval thinkers, almost always male, subscribed to a blend of classical Greek and Roman philosophy and Christian theology for their concepts of the sexes. For the height of female attractiveness, they chose the mythical Helen of Troy, whose imagined pear shape, small breasts, and golden hair served as beauty's epitome. Casting Eve's shadow over medieval women, they derided them as oversexed sinners, inherently lustful, insatiable, and weak. And, unless a nun, a woman was to be the embodiment of perfect motherhood. 
   
   
   
  In The Once and Future Sex, Janega unravels the restricting expectations on medieval women and the ones on women today. She boldly questions why, if our ideas of women have changed drastically over time, we cannot reimagine them now to create a more equitable future.

  Marcus Garvey's The Tragedy of White Injustice is a powerful indictment of white racism and colonialism.Garvey argues that the white race has a long history of oppressing and exploiting non-white people all over the world, and that white racism is not simply a matter of individual prejudice, but rather a deeply ingrained system of oppression that is maintained by white institutions and social structures.Garvey also discusses the impact of white racism on Black people, arguing that it has caused them to suffer physical, psychological, and spiritual damage, and has prevented them from reaching their full potential.Garvey's book is a call to action for Black people to unite and resist oppression, and to build their own institutions and economies so that they can achieve self-determination.

  In the United States of America today we live in a time of problems, confusion, and with lots of fighting between the main political parties. 
  Yet, people from all over the world still want to come here. 
  Why do so many persons still want to become Americans? I think it is because the United States has become the guiding star for the growth of humanity, now and in the future. People see their best futures to be here. 
  There is nowhere else that the rights our citizens possess allow many to go from being penniless to a multimillionaire in their lifetimes. And the provisions of freedom of religion and freedom of speech are important to our full expression as human beings. 
  But most American citizens despair about their lives, and the future of our country. Due to our poor educational system many don’t know the true history of this country and how it was formed to spread the Spirit of God in our country and around the world. 
  And what about new industries created here in the USA? In fact can anyone name a new industry which was not created here? 
  The purpose of this book is to show how the Spirit of God in man during the history of United States of America has made a huge positive difference in our world. 
  We should be extremely proud of the country we live in. 
  The United States was the light of the world in the past, is still in the present, and will continue to be so in the future.

  A Room of One's Own

  Virginia Woolf

  'Women have served all these centuries as looking glasses possessing the magic and delicious power of reflecting the figure of man at twice its natural size.'
  
  Based on two lectures Woolf delivered at the University of Cambridge, A Room of One's Own compellingly argues for women's intellectual freedom and the importance of financial independence. It is still considered one of the most powerful pieces of feminist writing to this day.
  
  Published in 1929, A Room of One's Own asserts a simple message: in order for women to reach their full creative potential, they must have their own money and space with which to do it with. Drawing from the careers of the extraordinary female authors who came before her – such as Jane Austen, the Brontë sisters and Aphra Behn – Woolf stresses just how crucial access to education is, particularly in an environment which fails to support women's liberty. She cleverly asks us to imagine that Shakespeare had a sister – equal in genius, talent – and poses the question: would her legacy be the same if her means to create were stumped? As incisive as it is intelligent, A Room of One's Own is a searing social commentary for the ages. This audiobook edition is brilliantly read by Karen Cass.
  Virginia Woolf (1882 – 1941) was one of the most significant novelists of the twentieth century. A modernist writer and progressive thinker, she is known for her stream of consciousness narrative style and influence on feminist criticism. Her works have been translated into over fifty languages and are widely read and adapted to this day.
