    Capital punishment was abolished for murder in Great Britain in 1969, but remained as the punishment for high treason until as recently as 1998, demonstrating how seriously we take the crime of betraying your country. But even with the threat of the noose hanging over them, many still chose the path of treachery during the cataclysmic events of last century. 
     
    British Traitors examines the lives and motivations of a number of the perpetrators of this most heinous of crimes, following the footsteps of Fascist traitors such as William Joyce (Lord Haw-Haw) and John Amery to the gallows, investigating what drove men such as Wilfred Macartney and John Herbert King to betray their country during the war to end all wars and delving into the mysterious web of espionage and subterfuge surrounding the Cambridge Spy Ring that spied for the Soviet Union from the nineteen-thirties until the early nineteen-fifties. 
     
    People commit treason for many reasons - some seek adventure, some seek reward, some are motivated by political philosophy, while others are sucked into it by their own foolishness. British Traitors provides a fascinating look at the lives and impulses of those who chose to betray their country.

    The Tools by Phil Stutz | Book Summary 
    Important note: This is not the original audiobook, this is an audiobook summary. 
    AboutThe Tools: Transform Your Problems into Courage, Confidence, and Creativity by Phil Stutz, Barry Michels 
    The Tools is a book based on a set of practices designed by two therapists (Barry Michels and Phil Stutz) to offer a way to combat one of the most common complaints they heard from their patients: “What are the specific changes I need to make to help myself heal—what are the actions I need to take to conquer negative behaviors?”  
     
    With these “tools,” we learn to find courage, turn pain into positive action, create focus, develop discipline, and express ourselves fully. The tools in this book provide us with a set of principles to combat anxiety and cultivate confidence.  
     
    For years, Phil Stutz and Barry Michels only shared these tools with an exclusive patient base. Now, with the help of this book, those very same revolutionary techniques are now accessible to anyone—including you. 
     
    Learn how to: 
     
    –Use "the tools" to transform your problems into proper action to move forward in life 
     
    –Step out of your comfort zone 
     
    –Avoid staying trapped in the past 
     
    –Step over anxiety and unfreeze yourself to do things you once feared 
     
    –Live in the present moment 
     
    –And much more

    You've read White Fragility and How to Be an Antiracist, but what comes next? The answer lies in this clear, actionable guide providing an invaluable four-week program for becoming an ally who makes a real difference in the racial justice fight. 
     
     
     
    Black women have always been the driving force behind real change in this country—especially when it comes to racial justice work. But they shouldn't have to do it alone. If you're ready to stop standing on the sidelines and become anti-racist instead of passively "not racist," then this book is what you need. You'll discover: how to have difficult conversations about white supremacy, racism, and white privilege; how to listen to criticism without defensiveness; why it's harmful to ignore race or claim to be colorblind; and how to expand your racial justice circle by joining groups led by Black women and cultivating a group of like-minded allies. 
     
     
      
    Racism can only be defeated if white people educate themselves and actively engage in antiracism work, especially in their inner circles. With this book, you'll learn how to change from someone who defends and protects racism to someone who fights against it. And you'll become an example to others that true allies are made, not born.
