  Harriet Tubman, freedom fighter and leader in the Underground Railroad, is one of the most significant figures in US history. Her courage and determination in bringing enslaved people to freedom have established her as an icon of the abolitionist movement. But behind the history of the heroine called "Moses" was a woman of deep faith. 
   
   
   
  In Walking the Way of Harriet Tubman, Therese Taylor-Stinson introduces Harriet, a woman born into slavery whose unwavering faith and practices in spirituality and contemplation carried her through insufferable abuse and hardship to become a leader for her people. Her profound internal liberation came from deep roots in mysticism, Christianity, nature spirituality, and African Indigenous beliefs that empowered her own escape from enslavement—giving her the strength and purpose to lead others on the road to freedom. 
   
   
   
  Harriet's lived spirituality illuminates a profound path forward for those of us longing for internal freedom, as well as justice and equity in our communities. As people of color, we must cultivate our full selves for our own liberation and the liberation of our communities. As the luminous significance of Harriet Tubman's spiritual life is revealed, so too is the path to our own spiritual truth, advocacy, and racial justice as we follow in her footsteps.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  How deeply have religious traditions shaped your values, assumptions, and worldview even if you consider yourself secular today? Rachel Thornfield explores the profound influence of religious thinking on modern culture, law, and psychology in this illuminating audiobook about hidden foundations. Discover how concepts you consider universal or obvious actually derive from specific religious traditions that became invisible through cultural dominance over centuries. Through historical analysis and cross-cultural comparison, Thornfield reveals the religious origins of ideas about time, morality, human nature, and society that seem self-evident today. Learn how Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and other traditions embedded themselves so thoroughly in Western civilization that their influence goes unrecognized by most people. This guide examines how religious assumptions shape secular institutions including education, government, and science in ways practitioners rarely acknowledge openly. Understand how your deepest beliefs about right and wrong, purpose and meaning, likely trace to theological frameworks whether or not you practice any religion actively. Thornfield provides perspective for both believers and skeptics on how religious heritage continues operating in contemporary life pervasively. Whether you follow a faith tradition or reject religion entirely, this audiobook will transform your understanding of where your ideas actually come from historically. Perfect for anyone interested in the hidden foundations of modern thought, culture, and social organization.

  The Adventures of Big-Foot...

  The writer of this book is well aware that it will not stand the test of criticism as a literary production. A frontiersman himself, his opportunities for acquiring information, and for supplying the deficiencies of a rather limited education, have of course been "few and far between;" and therefore it cannot be reasonably expected that he could make a book under such circumstances which would not be sadly defective as to style and composition. However, it can justly lay claim to at least one merit, not often found in similar publications—it is not a compilation of imaginary scenes and incidents, concocted in the brain of one who never was beyond the sound of a dinner-bell in his life, but a plain, unvarnished story of the "'scapes and scrapes" of Big-Foot Wallace, the Texas Ranger and Hunter, written out from notes furnished by himself, and told, as well as my memory serves me, in his own language.

  A Time for Choosing

  Ronald Reagan

  Ronald Reagan hosted the General Electric Theater TV series which ran from 1953 to 1962. During this time Reagan visited GE’s 135 plants across the country and spoke to audiences of GE’s 250,000 employees. Reagan’s speech focused on the growing power of federal, state, and local governments and the dangers this posed to free market competition and to American liberty. Over the years Reagan continually refined and improved what came to be known as “The Speech”. 
  Reagan was asked to record a version of his speech to be used to support the presidential campaign of Barry Goldwater during the 1964 presidential campaign. The speech, entitled “A Time for Choosing”, was presented to a national television audience on October 27, 1964, as part of a program titled Rendezvous with Destiny. 
  David Broder of the Washington Post said the speech was "the most successful national political debut since William Jennings Bryan electrified the 1896 Democratic Convention with his 'Cross of Gold' speech." Following the speech, Reagan was elected Governor of California in 1966. This speech launched Reagan’s career on the national stage and contributed to his reputation as “the Great Communicator”.
