Sinopse

Border Harassment Reports sheds light on the systemic discrimination faced by LGBTQ+ travelers at international borders.This book uncovers how seemingly neutral border control practices often disproportionately impact this marginalized community, highlighting the intersection of national security concerns with fundamental human rights.

 
For example, the book reveals instances where LGBTQ+ individuals are subjected to discriminatory profiling and invasive questioning, pointing to policy gaps and insufficient training among border officials.The book systematically examines documented incidents of discrimination, analyzes problem areas within current border control practices, and identifies policy gaps.

 
It progresses methodically, beginning with key concepts and moving through personal testimonies and legal complaints.The study incorporates both qualitative data, such as firsthand accounts, and quantitative data, including statistical analyses of reported incidents.This approach offers a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and promotes informed policy reform to ensure equitable treatment and social justice for LGBTQ+ travelers.

    Obedience - The Willing Follow -...

    Obedience, at its core, is the act of aligning one’s actions with a higher authority or divine purpose. It is not merely the submission to rules or commands, but a conscious choice to follow the guidance of a force greater than oneself. In the context of spiritual growth, obedience is deeply intertwined with faith, trust, and surrender. It requires an individual to recognize that there is wisdom beyond their understanding and that, by following divine guidance, they are led to a path of fulfillment and purpose. 
    The true essence of obedience goes beyond blind submission. It is an active decision to place one’s will in alignment with divine will, acknowledging that this alignment leads to a more harmonious and meaningful existence. It calls for humility, as one must be willing to accept that their personal desires, while valid, may not always align with the greater plan. This humility allows individuals to move away from a sense of ego-driven control and step into a flow where they are led by wisdom that is both timeless and profound. 
    Faith is a foundational element of obedience. When one trusts in a higher purpose, they are more likely to act in accordance with divine will, even when the path ahead is unclear or difficult. This trust creates a foundation for obedience that is not rooted in fear or obligation but in the understanding that divine guidance is always for the highest good, even if it does not immediately make sense to the individual.

    Ghosts spoke. Women listened. Everything changed. 
     
     
     
    In the 1840s, the Fox Sisters—and the legions of mediums they inspired—ignited the Spiritualist movement that swept through Victorian parlors and presidential campaigns alike. Contacting the dead wasn't merely a parlor trick: It was a political statement, a declaration of self that still echoes. Séances attracted suffragists and scientists, skeptics and charlatans, giving women a voice in a society that often refused to hear them. But as Spiritualism surged, it also blurred the lines between faith, fraud, feminism, and financial opportunity, drawing figures as varied as Harry Houdini, Victoria Woodhull, and even modern self-help gurus into its ever-expanding orbit. 
     
     
     
    From wartime séances to the rise of televangelists, from Victorian ghosts to goop-approved wellness rituals, When We Spoke to the Dead unearths the forgotten roots of today's obsession with manifestation, mysticism, and the power of belief. Exploring America's deep-seated hunger for the unseen—whether through politics, personal empowerment, or grief—this book traces how the supernatural, once condemned as heresy, became the ultimate commodity.

    A look at the major events of the twentieth century through the eyes of the man who witnessed it all: celebrated BBC foreign correspondent Charles Wheeler. This audiobook is narrated by his daughter, Shirin Wheeler, and features original audio from Charles' broadcasting days. Charles Wheeler, the BBC's longest-serving foreign correspondent, was one of Britain's greatest news reporters. For more than four decades, he reported for radio and television from most of the world's trouble spots. Present at many of the key episodes of the twentieth century, he had - as a BBC manager noted after the shooting of George Wallace, Presidential candidate and Governor of Alabama, on 15 May 1972, 'a knack of being in the right place at the right time'.  It was typical of Charles that he ran towards the sound of the gunshot while the crowd was running in the opposite direction.Wheeler's investigative skill and sense of judgement made him one of the most authoritative reporters of his generation. But what was it like to have been witness to the events that shaped our modern world? In this book - part memoir, part history, part reflection - his daughter, Shirin Wheeler, examines her father's journalistic legacy and brings her personal knowledge to bear on the project. She will tell the story of her father: a patient listener and forensic interrogator who was driven by curiosity and passion to report and expose injustice, and above all to give a voice to people ignored or unheard by many.
