  Jallianwala Bagh 1919 - The Real...

  It has been a century since the massacre at Jallianwala Bagh, but Punjab is still to recover from the shock of it. The British Empire never did either-the impact of those bullets fired for ten minutes at an unarmed, peaceful crowd inside a community park with one narrow exit rang through its remaining years in India. Yet, the true horror of the event itself has been forgotten, as also the volatile atmosphere in Punjab at the time. 
  What was the catalyst for the events of that day and how did it become a turning point in India's struggle for independence? Why did the British feel the need to impose martial law on Amritsar, which had shown little inclination for violence, despite provocation? What do we know about the individuals whose lives spun out of control on 19 April 1919, never to recover? Why did the people of Punjab suffer barbaric punishments, including public flogging, torture and even bombing, unknown to the rest of the world? 
  These are the questions fuelling the research that eventually gave shape to this meticulous and determined reconstruction of that crucial day, and the events which followed. Based on the reports of the Hunter Committee and the Indian National Congress, as well as other historical documents, Jallianwala Bagh, 1919: The Real Story provides a sharp analysis of General Dyer's actions and their fallout-the official narrative and the Indian counter-narratives.

  The Least Retraumatizing Read on Childhood Sexual Abuse.  
  For Survivors, by a Survivor. 
   
  Healing Honestly is a candid, poignant, and often funny survivor-to-survivor guide to navigating the salty waters of untrue stories and victim-blaming narratives that survivors of child sex abuse hear every day. 
   
  Survivors of child sex abuse (CSA) are inundated with untrue stories of their abuse, the aftermath, and what their healing journey should look like. The truth is those stories are a bunch of hot garbage.  
    
  Healing Honestly is a guide for survivors, written by a survivor, helping to break through the negative self-talk and debunk the myths that impact victims of CSA, such as:  
  -	There is a "real" survivor out there, and we are not it.  
  -	It happened so long ago that we should be over it by now.  
  -	We are having too much sex because of our trauma, and also, we are having too little sex because of our trauma.  
    
  With an approachable style that makes heavy topics not so damn scary, this book shows how trauma survivors can learn to identify these untrue stories that often come up in dating, in friendships, in families, at work, and more. Readers will discover strategies for turning down the volume on the bullshit so that they can hear their own wisdom and inner truth more clearly.   
    
  Full of wit and humor, Healing Honestly offers practical strategies for survivors of sex abuse to support themselves in living full and vibrant lives.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Hints of Pleasure is a tasteful, intimate, and empowering audiobook about feminine presence as inner truth rather than performance.  
  It begins with a radical shift: from asking how I look to asking what I feel.  
   
  Moshe Katz explores eroticism as a woman’s private relationship with pleasure, sensation, rhythm, subtlety, boundaries, and self-authorship.  
   
  This book is not about crude display or borrowed ideas of desirability. It is about cultivating a soft flame, the quiet magnetism that appears when a woman becomes deeply present in her own body. Through awareness, small gestures, gaze, pacing, curiosity, consent, personal style, and self-respect,  
  Hints of Pleasure teaches a more refined language of feminine expression.  
   
  It is for women who want to stop exaggerating and start inhabiting their own aliveness with elegance, sovereignty, playfulness, and truth.
