Sinossi

Census Inclusion Effects explores the implications of incorporating sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) questions into national census forms. Focusing on the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada, the book delves into both the statistical and socio-political ramifications of collecting SOGI data. A key insight is that while such data is invaluable for addressing inequalities affecting marginalized communities and allocating resources effectively, it also raises significant concerns about data privacy and the potential for misuse.

 
The book examines the historical context of census taking and the evolution of demographic data collection. It highlights debates surrounding SOGI data collection, weighing the benefits of informed social policy against the risks to individual privacy. For example, while Canada includes SOGI questions, generating data for policy, the US has seen limited inclusion in specific surveys. By comparing these approaches, the book identifies best practices for responsible and effective SOGI data collection.

 
Structured to provide a comprehensive understanding, the book first introduces a theoretical framework, then analyzes methodologies, and finally offers policy recommendations. Drawing from government reports, statistical datasets, and interviews, it uniquely combines quantitative analysis with qualitative insights, making it a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, and LGBTQ+ advocates alike.

Makes Me Wanna Holler - A Young...

Nathan McCall

NATIONAL BESTSELLER 
 
One of our most visceral and important memoirs on race in America, this is the story of Nathan McCall, who began life as a smart kid in a close, protective family in a black working-class neighborhood. Yet by the age of fifteen, McCall was packing a gun and embarking on a criminal career that five years later would land him in prison for armed robbery. 
 
In these pages, McCall chronicles his passage from the street to the prison yard—and, later, to the newsrooms of The Washington Post and ultimately to the faculty of Emory University. His story is at once devastating and inspiring, at once an indictment and an elegy. Makes Me Wanna Holler became an instant classic when it was first published in 1994 and it continues to bear witness to the great troubles—and the great hopes—of our nation. Includes the 2016 afterword by the author. 
 
"Not since Claude Brown's Manchild in the Promised Land has there been such an honest and searching look at the perils of growing up a black male in urban America....A compelling depiction of the toll that racism and misguided notions of manhood have taken in the life of one black man–and, by implication, many others."–The San Francisco Chronicle 
 
This audiobook is masterfully read by Leon Nixon, and was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. Audio engineering by Allie McSwain.

It Happens Here Too - The...

Marissa Conklin

You are safe. You are loved. You are good. These are the words Serenity Shepherd whispers to her son—the words no one ever said to her. Growing up as the perfect pastor's daughter meant learning to disappear behind smiles, to swallow truth like poison, to believe that love always came with conditions. It meant surviving in plain sight while everyone praised her father's holy work. But bodies remember what minds try to forget. And when the past refuses to stay buried, Serenity must choose between the silence that's slowly destroying her and a truth that could destroy everything else. From a childhood shadowed by stained glass and scripture to motherhood that becomes her salvation, this is a story about breaking cycles, finding voice, and discovering that sometimes the most sacred act is refusing to be quiet. A fictionalized memoir drawn from the author's own journey of survival and healing, It Happens Here Too: The Shepherd's Daughter is a luminous debut novel about religious trauma, the long road to recovery, and the revolutionary power of speaking your truth. Some voices are worth breaking the silence for.

Meditations - A Modernized...

Marcus Aurelius

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Written nearly two millennia ago between 161 and 180 AD, Meditations is the most famous and influential work of Stoic philosophy ever produced. It was never intended for publication; instead, it is a compilation of the private, personal journals of Marcus Aurelius, the Roman Emperor and the most powerful man in the world at the time. Written at night on the front lines of the empire, Marcus Aurelius penned these notes to himself as a tool for self-discipline, ego restraint, and moral clarity. In these pages, he wrestles with the same anxieties we face today: managing stress, dealing with difficult people, facing mortality, and finding peace in a chaotic world.  
This audio edition has been carefully modernized from the classic George W. Chrystal translation, streamlining dense phrasing into sharp, accessible English while preserving the calm, reflective, and stoic tone of the original text. Whether you seek guidance on leadership, emotional resilience, or a clearer perspective on life, this edition offers a masterclass in the unvarnished thoughts of history's great philosopher king.

Drink Water and Mind Your...

Dr. Donna Oriowo

Society was not built with the needs of Black women in mind. As a result, we learn that the only way to feel good about ourselves is to prioritize everyone else's needs over our own. We find our value in being the perfect partner, mother, daughter, employee, and friend. But that is exhausting. Instead of feeling good about how dope we are, we only feel good about what we do for others. 
 
 
 
Supremacy culture teaches us to hate Black people, to hate women, and to especially hate Black women . . . except when they need us. So in a world where our service is required for acceptance, how could we ever feel good about ourselves while also giving the middle finger to systems of power? How can we live our best lives? The answer: Self-esteem. Self-esteem has been gatekept by the white and male supremacist delusions for far too long. It's time to put power where it actually belongs. 
 
 
 
In Drink Water and Mind Your Business, Dr. Donna Oriowo helps listeners understand the basic foundations of self-esteem and offers real, meaningful solutions to feel like the most glorious and badass versions of themselves. Based on years of research and Dr. Donna's career as a licensed sex and relationship therapist, this book will help you set boundaries, prioritize your needs, understand your immense worth, and pursue a life that brings you pleasure and joy.
