In 2020, the US experienced a surge of political discontent following the murder of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement. Major corporations and nonprofit groups joined in protests, but the movement failed due to lack of tangible goals, established institutions, and grassroots movements. Fredrik deBoer's book, How Elites Ate the Social Justice Movement, suggests that society's winners can contribute to social justice movements without taking them over, and that activists and organizations can become more resistant to the influence of elites, nonprofits, corporations, and political parties. By organizing around class rather than empty gestures, we can begin to change minds and drive policy.

  • Chinook Crew 'Chick' - Highs and Lows of Forces Life from the Longest Serving Female RAF Chinook Force Crewmember - cover

    Chinook Crew 'Chick' - Highs and...

    Liz McConaghy

    Liz McConaghy spent a total of seventeen years flying with the RAF’s Chinook Fleet. Aged just 21, she was the youngest aircrew member to deploy to Iraq and was also the only woman on the Chinook wing for four years. In her astounding career, Liz McConaghy completed two deployments to Iraq followed by ten deployments to Helmand province in Afghanistan in support of the enduring Operation Herrick campaign. 
     
    Liz’s inspiringly honest story reveals the highs and lows that she witnessed at war, and the cost that came with that both, physically and mentally for those involved. During her deployments, she survived not only a near fatal wire strike onboard her CH47, but numerous enemy fire ‘contacts’ defending her crew by returning fire from both the M134 ‘Minigun’ and M60 weapons entrusted to her to operate. 
     
    Her biggest honor of all her duties, however, was serving on the Medical Emergency Response Team, or MERT, flying ambulance as it was more commonly known. This involved recovering wounded soldiers from the battlefield, often under fire, and witnessing them both die and indeed come back to life at her feet in the cabin of her Chinook. 
     
    Liz saw Camp Bastion grow from a barbed wire fence surrounding an area of tents in the sand to the huge Operating Base it became. She was also on the last 1310 Flight deployment there as the British forces withdrew 10 years later handing it back to the Afghan National Army. 
     
    Very few Chinook crew members, if any, spanned the length of time deployed as Liz McConaghy did. This is a genuinely unique tale that only Liz could tell, which ends with her battling the memories that haunted her, long after she had left the battlefield. Her own war within took her to the point of suicide once she had left the service. Her survival from both the battles in foreign lands and in her own head led her to begin telling her story, in the hope she can help others win their wars.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    Lessons From Nature: Finding Wisdom in the World Around Us is a collaboration between photographer Wadih Moussa and psychologist Dr. Valeria Ecaterina Purcia, blending the quiet beauty of nature with the clarity of psychological insight. 
    In the audiobook edition, each chapter begins with a brief description of a photograph—a still moment captured in nature—followed by a reflection on the life lesson it holds: the diligence of a bee, the endurance of a tree, the contentment of a bird. These stories invite the listener to slow down, pay attention, and discover how nature mirrors the values that ground and sustain us. 
    Adding depth to each chapter, Dr. Purcia draws on her experience as a psychologist, educator, and author to explore the emotional and mental dimensions of these natural lessons. Her contributions turn each entry into a practical meditation on resilience, self-awareness, and personal growth. 
    This audiobook is both contemplative and usable. It speaks to those who crave meaning in a noisy world, who want to reconnect with themselves, and who believe that nature still has something to teach us if we’re willing to listen. 
    Whether drawn by the imagery, the life lessons, or the psychological reflections, listeners will find here a quiet space for renewal. A place to pause. A path back to balance.

The Bardo Thodol - The Tibetan Book Of The Dead - Full Audiobook. **Please note: this is treated by some or many as a closed and secret sacred tradition within Shitro lineages, please express caution when viewing, unless one has proper Shitro initiation or is aware of the consequences of engaging with tantra sans guru.** The Bardo Thodol, commonly known in the West as The Tibetan Book of the Dead, is a terma text from a larger corpus of teachings, the Profound Dharma of Self-Liberation through the Intention of the Peaceful and Wrathful Ones, revealed by Karma Lingpa. The Tibetan text describes, and is intended to guide one through, the experiences that the consciousness has after death, in the bardo, the interval between death and the next rebirth. The text also includes chapters on the signs of death and rituals to undertake when death is closing in or has taken place. The text can be used as either an advanced practice for trained meditators or to support the uninitiated during the death experience.

    A journey through the minds of some of the most creative people on the planet reveals that creativity is rarely a “lightbulb moment” and instead arrives through a process of making and self-understanding. The creative process is winding. It involves entertaining uncertainty and improvising new paths to knowing. In this insightful and informed book, Lorne M. Buchman, an international leader in art and design education and president of ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena, California, guides readers through stories of a diverse and talented group of artists, entrepreneurs, innovators, and designers. Including such luminaries as Yves Béhar, Chris Kraus, Zack Snyder, Paula Scher, and Frank Gehry and businesses like Apple and Tesla who have changed the world as we know it, Buchman focuses on the revelatory nature of the creative journey itself. Michelangelo is said to have seen the angel in the stone and carved away until he set him free. Make to Know is about making as a path to knowing?presenting creativity as a “carving away” toward a revelation, not as a fully formed epiphany gleaned from a mysterious ether. As Buchman reveals throughout this provocative book, uncertainty is the space where discovery happens and where creators can be both playful and imaginative. Whether you’re an artist, designer, writer, daydreamer, or doodler, anyone can learn from these lessons on the varied paths to self-expression.

    The Gilded Age was a period in American history that covered the late 19th century, from the 1870s till around 1900. The Gilded Age was a period of great financial development in the United States, specifically in the North and West. The time saw an increase of countless European immigrants as American incomes were considerably higher than those in Europe, specifically for experienced workers, while industrialization demanded an ever-increasing common labor force. 
    Between 1860 and 1890, the quick growth of market led to a sixty percent boost in real salaries, which was dispersed over an ever-increasing manpower. The typical annual wage for a commercial worker (consisting of men, women, and kids) increased by 48 percent from $380 in 1880 to $564 in 1890. On the other hand, the Gilded Age was also a time of severe poverty and inequality, as countless immigrants-- many from poor parts-- gathered to the United States, bringing with them a high concentration of wealth that ended up being more obvious and controversial.
