  This is Not America

  Across the West, racial injustice has become a matter of urgency. Terms like 'critical race theory' and 'intersectionality' are everywhere and, in the rush to get it right, Britain has followed the lead of the world's dominant political power: America. But what if we've been looking in the wrong place? 
  In This is Not America, Tomiwa Owolade argues that too much of the debate around racism in Britain is viewed through the prism of American ideas that don't reflect the history, challenges and achievements of black communities at home. 
  Humane, empirical and passionate, this book promises to start a new conversation around race and, vitally, shed light on black British life today.

  A Pathway to American Renewal -...

  This challenging and inspiring collection of essays constructively frames the story of Black America—not as a tragedy involving helpless victims, but as a model for the nation. Scholars and grassroots leaders recount the history—the gritty, painful, but often triumphant account of what blacks accomplished after slavery was ended. Denied access to the institutions of white America, they built their own churches, schools, hotels, and a host of other successful enterprises. Their resilience produced amazing increases in literacy, family formation, and income. 
   
   
   
  Today's unsung grassroots leaders are the living evidence of the power of resilience. They use their stories of overcoming adversity and their own fallibility to help others. The organizations they create heal their communities. 
   
   
   
  This volume presents the insights of scholars who warn of the dangerous forces that threaten to shackle the ability of blacks to succeed today. They warn that, by accepting the notion that black adversity continues to be the product of systemic racism and is therefore unchangeable, no one would need to step up to the realities of a responsible life. This kind of thinking has led to lowering standards in education and even in the judicial system. The scholars outline positive paths to the future.

  Plato's 4 Great Dialogues -...

  “The unexamined life is not worth living.” What makes someone die for their beliefs? Four Texts on Socrates explores one of history’s most influential thinkers through three of Plato’s dialogues—Euthyphro, Apology, and Crito—and Aristophanes’ satirical play The Clouds. 
  Each work reveals a different side of Socrates. In Euthyphro, he questions the nature of piety and morality. Apology presents his bold defense at trial, where he declares his pursuit of truth worth any cost. In Crito, he refuses to escape prison, choosing to die rather than betray justice. Finally, The Clouds offers a comic, critical portrayal of Socrates as an eccentric sophist, reflecting Athenian tensions toward his radical ideas. 
  Together these texts paint a portrait of a man who challenged authority, questioned tradition, and inspired generations to examine their own lives. Socrates’ humility—“I know that I know nothing”—and his courage in facing death remain deeply relevant. 
  This collection invites readers into timeless philosophical questions: What is justice? How should we live? What is truth worth? Engaging and provocative, these works challenge us, as Socrates did, to think for ourselves.
