Synopsis

The Collected Works of Elizabeth Cady Stanton offers a comprehensive examination of her prolific contributions to the women's rights movement and American social reform in the 19th century. This collection showcases her eloquent essays, speeches, and letters, characterized by profound insights and a compelling narrative style. Stanton's work is deeply interwoven with the fabric of the abolitionist and suffragist movements, reflecting the socio-political upheavals of her time and underscoring her role as a fearless advocate for women's equality and rights. Through her writings, readers encounter the passionate urgency of her calls for social change, enriched by her innovative use of rhetoric and a strong moral compass. Born in 1815 in Johnstown, New York, Stanton was a pioneering feminist thinker and activist. Her upbringing, influenced by her father's legal career and her own experiences with systemic gender discrimination, propelled her commitment to social justice. Collaborating closely with figures like Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglass, Stanton's work encapsulated the struggles of her era while pioneering a vision for a more equitable society. This collection is indispensable for readers interested in feminism, social justice, and American history, as it not only illuminates Stanton's formidable intellect but also serves as a testament to the ongoing fight for gender equity. As a cornerstone of feminist literature, The Collected Works invites contemporary readers to engage with the enduring relevance of Stanton's ideas.

The #MeToo Reckoning - Facing...

Ruth Everhart

“It happened to me too. Does God care?” 
The #MeToo movement has revealed sexual abuse and assault in every sphere of society, including the church. But victims are routinely ignored by fellow Christians who deny their accounts and fail to bring accountability to the perpetrators. All too often, churches have been complicit in protecting abusers, reinforcing patriarchal power dynamics, and creating cultures of secrecy, shame, and silence. 
Pastor and survivor Ruth Everhart shines a light on the prevalence of sexual abuse and misconduct within faith communities. She candidly discloses stories of how she and others have experienced assault in church settings, highlighting the damage done to individuals, families, and communities. 
Everhart offers hope to survivors as she declares that God is present with the violated and stands in solidarity with victims. Scriptural narratives like those of Tamar and Bathsheba carry powerful resonance in today’s context, as do the accounts of Jesus’ interactions with women. God is at work in the midst of this #MeToo moment to call the church to repentance and deliver us from violence against the vulnerable.

Who Will Defend Europe? - An...

Keir Giles

Who will defend Europe? The answer should be obvious: Europe should be able to defend itself. Yet, for decades, most of the continent enjoyed a defense holiday, outsourcing protection to the United States while banking an increasingly illusory 'peace dividend'. Now, after three decades of reducing armed forces and drawing down defense industries, Europe finds itself close to unprotected—while Russia is intent on continuing its war of expansion, and the United States is distracted and divided. 
 
 
 
In this urgent, vital book, Keir Giles lays out the stark choices facing leaders and societies as they confront the return of war in Europe. He explains how the West's unwillingness to confront Russia has nurtured the threat, and that Putin's ambition puts the whole continent at risk. He assesses the role and deficiencies of NATO as a guarantor of hard security, and whether the European Union or coalitions of the willing can fill the gap. Above all, Giles emphasizes the need for new leadership in defense of the free world after the United States has stepped aside—and warns that the United Kingdom's brief moment of setting the pace for Europe has already been squandered.
