  • The Relentless War on Masculinity - Does it Ever End? - cover

    The Relentless War on...

    The Relentless War on Masculinity is a cultural, rhetorical, chemical, legal and institutional attack on all males. During the last seven decades it has resulted in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand moving from being societies characterised by equality (during the 1980s) to now being highly gynocentric. 
    Western countries have tilted against men and boys for decades—dismantling fatherhood, ignoring male disadvantage, and portraying masculinity as a problem to be fixed. The result is a crisis: falling education outcomes for boys, disengaged young men, rising mental health struggles, plummeting birth rates, and fractured relationships between men and women. 
    This book shines a light on the causes of the crisis and offers a vision for how to rebuild. Combining clear analysis with heartfelt advocacy, David Maywald calls for a new social contract: one where boys are supported, men are respected, and both sexes work together to create a healthier future for us all... 
    This book explores: 
    - How Anglo societies moved from equality to gynocentrism—and what that means for our families, schools, and communities. 
    - Why fatherhood, faith, and purpose remain essential foundations of human flourishing. 
    - The cultural, political, and institutional forces that have sidelined men. 
    - Practical solutions and reforms that can restore balance, rebuilding collaboration between men and women. 
    There are no winners from The Relentless War on Masculinity, but we can rebuild a much healthier society if men and women collaborate for our children. Inclusion demands that we listen to and engage with all voices—including males, White people and Christians. 
    As a society, will we choose combativeness or collaboration? Read on for a provocative, hopeful and urgent call to action. This book is for everyone who believes that when men and boys thrive, society also flourishes.

    Resettled refugees in America face a land of daunting obstacles where small things—one person, one encounter—can make all the difference in getting ahead or falling behind. 
     
     
      
    Fleeing war and violence, many refugees dream that moving to the United States will be like going to Heaven. Instead, they enter a deeply unequal American society, often at the bottom. Through the lived experiences of families resettled from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Blair Sackett and Annette Lareau reveal how a daunting obstacle course of agencies and services can drastically alter refugees' experiences building a new life in America. 
     
     
      
    In these stories of struggle and hope, as one volunteer said, "you see the American story." For some families, minor mistakes create catastrophes—food stamps cut off, educational opportunities missed, benefits lost. Other families, with the help of volunteers and social supports, escape these traps and take steps toward reaching their dreams. Engaging and eye-opening, We Thought It Would Be Heaven brings listeners into the daily lives of Congolese refugees and offers guidance for how activists, workers, and policymakers can help refugee families thrive.

    Small Actions Lead to Big...

    In this 2023 conversation with Justine Wilils Toms, podcaster and workshop leader Omkari Williams addresses the question: How do we keep ourselves “in the game” when we become overwhelmed, dispirited, and downhearted by the enormity of needs in today’s challenging times? Williams gives us some powerful suggestions for a sustainable form of activism that she describes as micro-activism. She believes that the size of the action isn’t the point. What matters is that we take regular action. These can be done in a small amount of time and don’t take a huge amount of energy, yet they have a cumulative effect that is disproportionate to the individual effort they require. Together these millions of incremental steps lead to a tipping point. Indeed, over and over history has shown this to be true.  
    Omkari L. Williams is the author of: Micro Activism: How You Can Make a Difference in the World (without a Bullhorn): Small Actions Equal Big Results. (Storey publishing 2023)
