  What does it mean to call a place home? Who is allowed to become a member of a community? When can we say that we truly belong? 
   
   
   
  These are some of the questions of place and belonging that renowned cultural critic Bell Hooks examines in Belonging: A Culture of Place. Traversing past and present, Belonging charts a cyclical journey in which Hooks moves from place to place, only to end where she began—her old Kentucky home. 
   
   
   
  Hooks has written provocatively about race, gender, and class; and in this book she turns her attention to focus on issues of land and land ownership. Reflecting on the fact that 90% of all black people lived in the agrarian South before mass migration to northern cities in the early 1900s, she writes about black farmers, about black folks who have been committed both in the past and in the present to local food production, to being organic, and to finding solace in nature. It would be impossible to contemplate these issues without thinking about the politics of race and class. Reflecting on the racism that continues to find expression in the world of real estate, she writes about segregation in housing and economic racialized zoning. In these critical essays, hooks finds surprising connections that link of the environment and sustainability to the politics of race and class that reach far beyond Kentucky.

  "Marshaling fine-grained historical detail and scrupulous analysis, Hardwick persuades." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) 
   
   
   
  As a Black autistic pastor and disability scholar, Lamar Hardwick lives at the intersection of disability, race, and religion. Tied to this reality, he heeded the call to write How Ableism Fuels Racism to help Christian communities engage in critical conversations about race by addressing issues of ableism. 
   
   
   
  Hardwick believes that ableism—the idea that certain bodies are better than others—and the disability discrimination fueled by this perspective are the root causes of racial bias and injustice in American culture and in the church. Here, he uses historical records, biblical interpretation, and disability studies to examine how ableism in America led to the creation of images, idols, and institutions that perpetuate both disability and racial discrimination. 
   
   
   
  He then goes a step further, calling the church into action to address the deep-seated issues of ableism that started it all and offering practical steps to help listeners dismantle ableism and racism both in attitude and practice.

  Fascism Comes to America - A...

  A deeply relevant look at what fascism means to Americans. 
   
  From the time Mussolini took power in Italy in 1922, Americans have been obsessed with and brooded over the meaning of fascism and how it might migrate to the United States. Fascism Comes to America examines how we have viewed fascism overseas and its implications for our own country. Bruce Kuklick explores the rhetoric of politicians, who have used the language of fascism to smear opponents, and he looks at the discussions of pundits, the analyses of academics, and the displays of fascism in popular culture, including fiction, radio, TV, theater, and film. Kuklick argues that fascism has little informational meaning in the United States, but instead, it is used to denigrate or insult. For example, every political position has been besmirched as fascist. As a result, the term does not describe a phenomenon so much as it denounces what one does not like. Finally, in displaying fascism for most Americans, entertainment—and most importantly film—has been crucial in conveying to citizens what fascism is about. Fascism Comes to America has been enhanced by many illustrations that exhibit how fascism was absorbed into the US public consciousness.

  How to Fix Your Anxious...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. It's 11:40 a.m., and a single text message that says 'k' has just detonated your entire day. If you've ever spent hours decoding punctuation, refreshing a thread, or drafting and deleting the same message twenty times, you already know the exhaustion of anxious attachment—and you're not alone. Roughly one in five people run the same hypervigilant software, scanning every reply time and tone shift for signs that love is about to vanish. This transformative audiobook offers something rarer than reassurance: an accurate map of the machinery driving your panic, plus the practical, research-backed tools to rewire it. Rooted in attachment theory and the science of 'earned security,' this guide walks you through exactly how anxious attachment forms, why your nervous system treats ambiguity as danger, and how to break the loop of protest behaviors, reassurance-seeking, and overthinking that pushes partners away. Learn how to feel the anxiety surge without obeying it, interrupt catastrophic 2 a.m. thought spirals, communicate needs without protest, navigate the brutal anxious-avoidant dynamic, and date from a grounded center of gravity. No affirmations. No 'just love yourself' platitudes. Just real reps, real change, and a clear path from needy to securely attached. Whether you're healing from heartbreak, stuck in a painful pattern, or ready to stop letting fear run your relationships, this listen delivers the emotional regulation, self-worth, and relationship confidence you've been chasing.
