Sinopse

Marriage Fight Voices chronicles the global struggle for marriage equality by spotlighting the individual stories of activists, lawyers, and everyday people who shaped the movement. It argues that the advancement of LGBTQ+ rights was driven by the courage and strategic efforts of individuals challenging the status quo. The book highlights the interplay between legal activism and legislative reform, revealing how individual advocacy shifted public sentiment and influenced policy decisions related to marriage.

 
The book begins by introducing key figures and landmark cases, then explores specific national contexts like the United States and South Africa. It examines the legal concepts of equal protection and due process, crucial to the arguments for marriage equality. Original interviews and diverse sources provide firsthand accounts of the challenges and strategies employed.

 
By focusing on personal narratives, Marriage Fight Voices offers a unique perspective on a transformative social and legal struggle, showing how this movement impacted broader human rights struggles. Finally, the book analyzes common threads and divergent strategies across different countries, drawing conclusions about factors contributing to success and remaining challenges. It connects to fields like law, sociology, and political science, offering insights into legislative reform and social change. Readers can apply these lessons to contemporary social justice movements, gaining insights into effective advocacy and coalition building.

    Originally written in 1944 by the Office of Strategic Services (O.S.S.), the wartime predecessor to the CIA, the Simple Sabotage Field Manual is a fascinating and often startling guide to subtle disruption during World War II. Designed to be used by ordinary citizens behind enemy lines, this manual offered clever, low-risk ways to undermine operations—from misfiling paperwork to tampering with machinery and stalling meetings. 
    Both a historical curiosity and a chillingly relevant study in passive resistance, the manual outlines how small acts of obstruction—carried out consistently and quietly—could grind an enemy’s war machine to a halt. With its dryly practical tone and surprising creativity, Simple Sabotage Field Manual reveals the hidden tactics of psychological warfare, bureaucratic interference, and grassroots defiance. 
    Narrated with gripping precision by Russ Jankovitz, this audiobook brings the shadowy ingenuity of World War II espionage to life, offering listeners a window into how everyday people were weaponized to fight tyranny from within.

    What Color Is Your Parachute? meets I Will Teach You To Be Rich for twentysomethings. Raffi Grinberg, who created and taught the ever-oversubscribed college course "Adulting 101," offers a practical guide to adult life's greatest mysteries that were never taught in school, including how to launch your career, find your purpose (for right now), invest your money, and much more. 
     
     
     
    Though twenty- and thirty-somethings are better educated than ever before, essentially none of the topics critical to being a full-fledged adult—such as how to get a new job, create a budget, file your taxes, face rejection, and navigate family dynamics—are covered in lower or higher education. Fortunately, here is a book that does just that. 
     
     
     
    From entrepreneur Raffi Grinberg, who lived and learned the hard way throughout his twenties, here is a crash course in everything you need to know to be a grown up. Based on his wildly popular "Adulting 101" course at Boston College, Grinberg firmly steers you through the basics of being a grown up using interactive chapters, bite-size nuggets of wisdom, humor, and stories from his twenties, including nearly going broke, having bad credit, disappointing his parents, and much more. As Raffi tells his students, "I want you to have a quarter-life crisis now so that you won't have a mid-life crisis later."
