  This essential playbook reveals the winning strategies for successfully fighting a radical woke agenda in your kids’ schools. Ian Prior is one of the most articulate and successful parent-activists in the United States. Armed with 12 inspiring battle-tested rules and revealing stories about sparring with self-righteous Woke neighbors (the “Chardonnay Antifa”), Ian shares secrets about what fellow parents can do in their own school districts to stop the Left's dark vision from taking root.   Get ready to laugh. This is not a boring education book. With real world lessons and funny anecdotes readers can connect with, Ian explains how families can win the battle to stop divisive and dangerous concepts rooted in critical race theory and other dangerous left-wing ideologies from spreading to their schools. He convincingly makes the case that the Left envisions a public education system in America where children are no longer the responsibility of their parents but rather mere wards of the state.   You’ll be shocked and amused by the outrageous stories in Ian’s suburban county that unexpectedly became ground zero for the parents’ rights movement. This sign-of-the times book helpfully explains the confusing and infuriating cultural moment we find ourselves in.Parents of the World, Unite! is an indispensable book for American families who believe they should be able to raise their children without government interference in their moral, religious, and ethical choices -- and are ready to join a revolution of parents.

  Longlisted for the 2024 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence 
  “American Whitelash is indispensable. Really. It is.” – Ibram X. Kendi, author of How to Be an Antiracist 
  Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Wesley Lowery confronts the sickness at the heart of American society: the cyclical pattern of violence that has marred every moment of racial progress in this country, and whose bloodshed began anew following Obama’s 2008 election. 
  In 2008, Barack Obama’s historic victory was heralded as a turning point for the country. And so it would be—just not in the way that most Americans hoped. The election of the nation’s first Black president fanned long-burning embers of white supremacy, igniting a new and frightening phase in a historical American cycle of racial progress and white backlash. 
  In American Whitelash, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and best-selling author Wesley Lowery charts the return of this blood-stained trend, showing how the forces of white power retaliated against Obama’s victory—and both profited from, and helped to propel, the rise of Donald Trump. Interweaving deep historical analysis with gripping firsthand reporting on both victims and perpetrators of violence, Lowery uncovers how this vicious cycle is carrying us into ever more perilous territory, how the federal government has failed to intervene, and how we still might find a route of escape.

  Women in Ancient Sparta: The...

  The most unique city-state in ancient Greece was Sparta, which continues to fascinate people today. It is not entirely clear why Sparta placed such a great emphasis on having a militaristic society, but the result was that military fitness was a preoccupation from birth. If a Spartan baby did not appear physically fit at birth, it was left to die. Spartan children underwent military training around the age of seven, and every male had to join the army around the age of 18.  
  	Sparta will forever be known for its military prowess, but they had lives off the battlefield as well, and their way of life was also unique. For example, Spartan females were formally educated, which was a rarity among the city-states, and according to Plutarch, when Leonidas’s wife Gorgo was asked why Spartan women held such places of prominence in society, she replied, “It is because we Spartan women are the only ones who give birth to men."  
  	Athenian girls were married at 14 to husbands they had never met, whereas Spartan girls married in their late teens or twenties. Athenian women were expected to stay indoors, be segregated from men, remain uneducated, and be silent, while Spartan women trained in athletics, exercised in public in scant clothing or none at all, owned property in their own names, and spoke their minds. By the 4th century B.C., according to Aristotle, they owned 40% of the land across the entire polis, and they were credited by foreign observers with influence over their husbands that no other Greek women possessed. 
  While all of this was acknowledged, the sources are uneven regarding the actual lives of Spartan women, from how they were raised to how they spoke and worshiped. All that can be said for sure is that Sparta had a society in which the female half of the citizen population occupied a position more nearly equal to that of men than anywhere else in the ancient Mediterranean world.

  The dissolution of the Order of the Temple and the persecution of the Knights Templar are still fresh in people's minds. Why did King Philip the Fair and Pope Clement V set out to destroy them? What secrets did the Knights Templar hold? Just as the Da Vinci Code revealed the existence of the Order of the Priory of Sion and left its mark on the world, Jean-Patrick Pourtal takes you on an investigative journey from the 14th century to the present day. The author develops his hypotheses on the historical implications of the Knights Templar, mixing royal dynasty and hidden messages. He returns to mythical sites such as Arginy, Gisors and Rennes-Le-Château, and meets the characters who were instrumental in bringing about the so-called Templar resurgence.
