  It's time to move past talk. 
   
   
   
  It's no longer news to most of us that our society has a deep-seated racism problem. Christians of all ethnic and economic backgrounds are tired of seeing the ugly legacy of racism play out before their eyes and feeling ill-equipped to respond. They watch as friends and family members leave the visible church over this issue, or fall prey to a gospel of White nationalism that is an affront to the cross of Christ. Racism presents itself as an undefeatable foe—a sustained scourge on the reputation of the church. 
   
   
   
  In Faithful Antiracism, Christina Barland Edmondson and Chad Brennan take confidence from the truth that Christ has overcome the world, including racism, and offer clear analysis and interventions to challenge and resist its pernicious power. Drawing on brand-new research from the landmark Race, Religion, and Justice Project led by Michael Emerson and others, this book represents the most comprehensive study on Christians and race since Emerson's own book Divided by Faith (2001). It invites listeners to put this data to immediate practical use, applying it to their own specific context. Compelled by our grievous social moment and by the timeless truth of Scripture, Faithful Antiracism will equip listeners to move past talk and enter the fight against racism in both practical and hopeful ways.

  Righteous Renegades: Once Hidden Heroes of the Holocaust 
  By Quentin Drummond Anderson 
  As the Nazi regime tightened its grip across Europe, four diplomats waged a silent battle with bureaucracy itself. Chiune Sugihara, Raoul Wallenberg, Varian Fry, and Aristides de Sousa Mendes defied their governments to save thousands during the Holocaust. 
  The Nazi genocide operated through meticulous documentation and legal decrees. Escape required someone willing to break these very rules. 
  Japanese consul Sugihara issued thousands of unauthorized transit visas from Lithuania. Swedish diplomat Wallenberg arrived in Budapest in 1944, using forged documents and safe houses to rescue Hungarian Jews. American journalist Fry transformed an assignment in Vichy France into a covert rescue operation for intellectuals and refugees. Portuguese consul Sousa Mendes granted visas to thousands in Bordeaux against direct orders. 
  Their heroism came at tremendous cost. Some faced professional ruin, while others vanished into Soviet captivity. Recognition as Righteous Among the Nations came decades later. 
  Through gripping storytelling and extensive research, Anderson examines the ethical dilemmas these men confronted. Each was bound by government duty yet found moral courage to disobey. The book explores power structures, bureaucratic indifference, and how a single signature determined life or death. 
  More than historical account, Righteous Renegades reflects on individual responsibility within systems of power. In today's world of refugee crises and political oppression, these lessons remain profoundly relevant. 
  For readers of Erik Larson, Deborah Lipstadt, and Timothy Snyder, this essential addition to Holocaust literature poses a timeless question: When faced with injustice, would you have the courage to act?

  Why Vote - How to make your...

  Swamped beneath the tide of fake news, wars on woke and social media storms lies democracy. Jo Phillips and David Seymour guide the reader through the workings of government and Parliament and make a passionate case for the power of democracy. Their argument is that young people should take back control of the future, hold politicians to account and get involved.
  In the last decade we've had a Brexit referendum, the Covid pandemic, war in Ukraine and Gaza, increasing fears over the climate emergency, a new monarch and since 2010, six Prime Ministers.
  Britain's influence in the world has been diminished, freedom to protest peacefully has been curtailed, the cost of further education is a concern, the health service is in crisis and the likelihood of owning your own home or even finding somewhere to rent is becoming less and less.
  If younger people turned out to vote in the same numbers that older people do, this country would be a very different place. Apathy is the enemy, not the answer.

  Between Ape and Human - An...

  While doing fieldwork on the remote Indonesian island of Flores, anthropologist Gregory Forth came across people talking about half-apelike, half-humanlike creatures that once lived in a cave on the slopes of a nearby volcano. Over the years he continued to record what locals had to say about these mystery hominoids while searching for ways to explain them as imaginary symbols of the wild or other cultural representations. 
   
   
   
  In Between Ape and Human, we follow Forth on the trail of this mystery hominoid, and the space they occupy in islanders' culture as both natural creatures and as supernatural beings. In a narrative filled with adventure, Lio culture and language, zoology and natural history, Forth comes to a startling and controversial conclusion. 
   
   
   
  Unique, important, and thought-provoking, this book will appeal to anyone interested in human evolution, the survival of species (including our own), and how humans might relate to 'not-quite-human' animals. A must-listen for all those interested in cryptozoology, it is the only firsthand investigation by a leading anthropologist into the possible survival of a primitive species of human into recent times—and its coexistence with modern humans.
