  What if your brain wasn’t the enemy... but the tool you’ve never learned how to use properly? 
  You wake up with that familiar tension in your chest. Your thoughts race before your feet even touch the floor. You overthink, avoid, procrastinate, repeat. You’ve tried to “calm down,” but your brain seems wired for panic. 
  Here’s the truth: 
  Anxiety doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means your brain’s trying to protect you — just in the wrong way. And once you understand how that wiring works, you can start changing it. You can interrupt the panic patterns, replace the fear loops, and actually feel good again. 
  This audiobook gives you a toolkit for that shift — from overthinking to clarity, from mental exhaustion to resilience. 
  Here’s what you’ll take away: 
  •	Why your anxiety isn’t just “in your head” — and what’s really triggering it 
  •	The link between low moods, low energy, and how your brain processes stress 
  •	What your brain needs to feel safe — and why it’s not getting it 
  •	The exact moment negative thoughts take over (and how to stop them mid-loop) 
  •	Easy-to-follow brain rewiring techniques you can use anywhere 
  •	A simple way to build habits that don’t fall apart after a week 
  •	How to talk to yourself without sounding fake or cringey 
  •	Everyday rituals that quietly boost your mood and focus 
  •	What mindfulness really is (no incense required) and why it works 
  •	How to bounce back fast when old triggers sneak back inIf you’re tired of thinking your way in circles, this is your way out. Start rewiring. Start thinking clearly again. And start feeling like yourself — for real this time.

  The Voice of America (VOA) is the oldest and largest US government-funded international media organization. In 2020, Donald Trump nominated Michael Pack, a right-wing documentarian and close friend of Steve Bannon, to lead the US Agency for Global Media—the independent federal agency overseeing US-funded international media. During Pack's seven month tenure, more than thirty whistleblowers filed complaints against him, and a judge ruled that he had infringed journalists' constitutional right to freedom of speech. 
   
   
   
  How did such a major international public service media network become intensely politicized by government allies in such a short time, despite having its editorial independence protected by law? 
   
   
   
  Capturing News, Capturing Democracy puts these events in historical and international context—and develops a new analytical framework for understanding government capture and its connection to broader processes of democratic backsliding. Drawing from in-depth interviews with network managers and journalists, and analysis of private correspondence and internal documents, Kate Wright, Martin Scott, and Mel Bunce analyze how political appointees, White House officials, and right-wing media influenced VOA—changing its reporting of the Black Lives Matter movement, and the 2020 presidential election.

  Kidnapped at Sea - The Civil War...

  THE TRUE STORY OF DAVID HENRY WHITE, A FREE BLACK TEENAGE SAILOR ENSLAVED ON THE HIGH SEAS DURING THE CIVIL WAR, WHOSE LIFE STORY WAS FALSELY AND INTENTIONALLY APPROPRIATED TO ADVANCE THE LOST CAUSE TROPE OF A CONTENTED SLAVE, HAPPY AND SAFE IN SERVILITY. 
   
  David Henry White, a free Black teenage sailor from Lewes, Delaware, was kidnapped by Captain Raphael Semmes of the Confederate raider Alabama on October 9, 1862, from the Philadelphia-based packet ship Tonawanda. White remained captive on the Alabama for over 600 days, until he drowned during the Battle of Cherbourg on June 19, 1864. 
   
  In a best-selling postwar memoir, Semmes falsely described White as a contented slave who remained loyal to the Confederacy. In Kidnapped at Sea, archaeologist Andrew Sillen uses a forensic approach to describe White’s enslavement and demise and illustrates how White’s actual life belies the Lost Cause narrative his captors sought to construct. 
   
  Kidnapped at Sea is the first book to focus on White’s actual life, rather than relying on Semmes and other secondary sources. Until now, Semmes’s appropriation of White’s life has escaped scrutiny, thereby demonstrating the challenges faced by disempowered, illiterate people—and how well-crafted, racist fabrications have become part of Civil War memory. 
   
  “In this fast-paced narrative, Andrew Sillen uncovers the astounding story of David Henry White, a free Black teenager kidnapped from a US ship and forced to accompany the Confederate raider Alabama. Through a haunting account, Sillen restores White’s humanity and, in doing so, provides a timely examination of the necessity for addressing historical crimes.”—Caroline E. Janney, author of Ends of War: The Unfinished Fight of Lee’s Army after Appomattox

  Children’s future successes depend on developing the abilities to innovate, be resilient in the face of their mistakes, problem-solve creatively, and collaborate with peers effectively. However, standard American educational practices—stressing memorization, grades, and testing—are failing to foster these skills. There is one complete system of education that effectively supports the natural development of such essential abilities: Montessori. Montessori education expert Paula Lillard Preschlack offers a clear explanation of how the Montessori approach helps children. By looking closely at authentic Montessori practices, she shows the tight correlation between the Montessori system in action and children practicing and strengthening the very traits they will need for adulthood.
