Sinopse

Displacement and Safety sheds light on the often-overlooked plight of LGBTQ refugees and asylum seekers, exploring the reasons behind their forced migration due to violence, discrimination, and persecution. The book emphasizes the necessity for specialized protections within international refugee systems. Current legal frameworks frequently fail to address the nuanced persecution faced by LGBTQ individuals. One intriguing fact highlighted is how cultural norms and legal frameworks significantly influence experiences of persecution, shaping the landscape of homophobia and transphobia worldwide. The book argues for recognizing LGBTQ status as a valid basis for asylum, advocating for inclusive policies.

 
It unfolds in three parts: introducing core concepts, analyzing factors driving LGBTQ displacement through case studies and narratives, and examining challenges within the asylum process. Drawing from legal analyses, human rights reports, and interviews, it provides a comprehensive understanding of issues. A unique aspect is its focus on intersectionality, acknowledging how race, religion, and socioeconomic status compound the challenges faced by LGBTQ refugees seeking social justice and human rights.

    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”.

    We all have stories of our life experiences, and they shape our perceptions - sometimes for better, sometimes for worse. But what happens when the stories we tell ourselves about our limitations and past challenges become obstacles to further growth? That's when unlearning begins. This framework provides a path for visionaries to break through self-imposed barriers, foster adaptability in their personal and professional spaces, and maximize their full potential. I synthesized ten tenets of unlearning that I observed in my own life and used specifically as a powerful method for growth. These tenets are the guideposts of unlearning. I share snippets of my story as a testament to the power of unlearning. However, this writing is not about dwelling on past experiences, whether they be mine or yours. Instead, it's a guide to crafting the future you desire. These ten transformative tenets of unlearning will help you build a more empowered, adaptable future.

    How can obedience and carrying out orders lead to horrific acts such as the Holocaust or the genocides in Rwanda, Cambodia, or Bosnia? For the most part, it is a mystery why obeying instructions from an authority can convince people to kill other human beings, sometimes without hesitation and with incredible cruelty. Combining social and cognitive neuroscience with real-life accounts from genocide perpetrators, this book sheds light on the process through which obedience influences cognition and behavior. Emilie Caspar, a leading expert in the field, translates this neuroscientific approach into a clear, uncomplicated explanation, even for those with no background in psychology or neuroscience. By better understanding humanity's propensity for direct orders to short-circuit our own independent decision-making, we can edge closer to effective prevention processes.

    Raoul Wallenberg lived at a time when one of the worst outrages of inhumanity was occurring—the Holocaust. As a Swedish businessman in Hungary, he bore witness to this tragedy firsthand as Hungarian Jews were being shipped off to Auschwitz. 
    Raoul Wallenberg wasn’t a soldier, and he didn’t have armies he could fall back on to blast the Nazis to smithereens, but he did have important connections in the diplomatic circles of Sweden. He used these connections to provide passports and other documentation that would allow the Jews of Hungary to travel out of the country and on to freedom. He also orchestrated a wide array of other services—including shelter, food, and medical care—and his combined efforts are said to have saved tens of thousands of people. 
    Wallenberg’s story, however, took a tragic turn when he was captured by the Soviet Red Army and disappeared into Stalin’s Gulag, his fate becoming one of the Cold War’s most enduring mysteries. This is his life—this is his story.
