  How to Have Difficult...

  Negotiation expert Kwame Christian's motto is: "The best things in life are on the other side of difficult conversations." If we want a more equitable workplace, and a more equitable world, we have to talk to each other about race. But, for so many of us, that's easier said than done. 
   
    
    
  Many people avoid conversations about race because of fear: fear of discomfort, damaging important relationships, being misunderstood, "canceled," ostracized. How to Have Difficult Conversations About Race equips you with the skills you need to make these crucial conversations easier and more productive. 
   
   
    
  Whether you're looking to create change for yourself and other BIPOC, or a white ally seeking to support your coworkers or clients, you'll learn how to: overcome your internal barriers to talking about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI); work around others' barriers to productive discussion; be strategic about the outcome you want, and guide the conversation accordingly; use "Compassionate Curiosity" to connect and persuade; avoid common mistakes; and communicate more effectively over email, when you can't talk face to face. If you've ever struggled to turn that passion into persuasion, or been too afraid to speak up at work (or outside of it), this book is for you.

  This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
   
  We watch the news. We see war, disease, poverty, man against man. We see billions of poor people, displaced by the power brokers. We see the super rich getting richer. Many simply see the news, they don't understand or even try to. They don't know the bigger picture, the truth about what is really happening out there. 
   
  The truth is, what happens out there, affects us all. And all of those world events are happening, not by chance, but by design. All of our lives are being affected by just a few men. Those men are members of an elite group. Their ancestors plotted and schemed just as they do today. Their goals are short and long term. 
   
  They affect all levels of society. Lawmakers and enforcers, religious and political leaders, movie makers and media moguls, industrial giants and pharmaceutical murderers. 
   
  All around the world they work. Plotting and scheming, scheming and plotting. Nobody dares to speak out against them. Most don't even know. Through clever manipulation, marketing, propaganda and force, they control the world. These are not the people you're thinking of. These are not always the politicians who are often pawns themselves. 
   
  These people are members of a long line, a golden thread through history that stretches back thousands of years and can be traced through their own bloodline.

  Earwitness - A Search for Sonic...

  In his twenties, Ed Garland came close to suicide but later discovered reading to help him cope with hearing loss and tinnitus. In this unique blend of memoir and literary criticism, right at the cutting edge of research drawing on both the literary and the medical worlds, the author reveals his own journey – through music then fiction – towards an understanding of sonic loss and, ultimately, towards healing. A genre-busting mix of literary criticism, sound studies and memoir, the essays explore what fictional sonic experiences can tell us about sound in everyday life. Written with humorous honesty about the ups and downs – mostly downs – of a young man's mental health, this is a thoughtful and original exploration of recovey, and of literature's ability to challenge preconceptions.
  The English-language fiction classics of Wales explored include the work of Margiad Evans, Bernice Rubens, and Deborah Kay Davies. The international titles are by Annie Proulx and Samuel Beckett. Earwitness amplifies the rich connections between literature, auditory perception and mental wellbeing.

  In August, 1947, Mary Brock boarded a train in Toronto. She was headed for the wilds of Northwestern Ontario and a teaching job at an Indian Residential School. Her family was horrified.At the end of her first day of teaching, Mary was horrified too. This was not the exciting adventure she had imagined. But Mary wasn't one to give up, and buoyed by her ideals and her pragmatism, she kept showing up.She lasted the academic year but when she boarded the train for home, she knew she had failed in every way that mattered. The ideals she had come with had shattered on her classroom floor, and a big piece of her heart, lay buried behind a small log cabin in the woods.Sixty years later, two unexpected gifts forced Mary to take a second look back and a more hopeful look forward. Maybe her ideals weren't so naive after all.
