  The End of White Politics - How...

  An MSNBC political analyst and former Hillary Clinton staffer examines the past and present problems of the Left—and makes a compelling case for how to take back our government and secure a better future for America.In the entire history of the United States of America, we've never elected a woman as our president. And we've only had one president who was not a white man.After working on two presidential campaigns (for Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton), MSNBC political analyst and SiriusXM host Zerlina Maxwell gained first-hand knowledge of everything liberals have been doing right over the past few elections-and everything they are still doing wrong. Ultimately, these errors worked in President Donald Trump's favor in 2016; he effectively ran a campaign on white identity politics, successfully tapping into white male angst and resistance. In 2020, after the Democratic Party's most historically diverse pool of presidential candidates finally dwindled down to Joe Biden, once again an older white man, Maxwell has posed the ultimate question: what now, liberals?Fueled by Maxwell's trademark wit and candor, The End of White Politics dismantles the past and present problems of the Left, challenging everyone from scrappy, young "Bernie Bros" to seasoned power players in the "Billionaire Boys' Club." No topic is taboo; whether tackling the white privilege that enabled Mayor Pete Buttigieg's presidential run, the controversial #HashtagActivism of the Millennial generation, the massive individual donations that sway politicians toward maintaining the status quo of income inequality, or the lingering racism that debilitated some Democratic presidential contenders and cut their promising campaigns short, Maxwell pulls no punches in her fierce critique. However, underlying all of these individual issues, Maxwell argues that it's the "liberal-minded" party's struggle to engage women and communities of color-and its preoccupation with catering to the white, male working class—that threatens to be its most lethal shortfall.The times—and the demographics—are changing, and in order for progressive politics to prevail, we must acknowledge our shortcomings, take ownership of our flaws, and do everything in our power to level the playing field for all Americans. The End of White Politics shows exactly how and why progressives can lean into identity politics, empowering marginalized groups, and uniting under a common vision that will benefit us all.***TIME, 100 Must-Read Books of 2020!***"Witty and piercing."—TIME

  Broken Power

  Why God Trusted Women With the World’s Turning Point 
  You were taught that power looks like control. 
  That strength looks suspiciously masculine. 
  Broken Power gently—and irrevocably—undoes those assumptions. 
  Written for the woman who loves Christ but feels unseen by His story, this book reveals a pattern hidden in plain sight: 
  God has always moved power through relationship—not dominance. Through the body—not despite it. Through women—not around them. 
  This is not a book about becoming louder, harder, or more “empowered” in the modern sense. 
  It’s about remembering what you already carry. 
  Through Scripture, theology, history, and the lived wisdom of the female body, Broken Power reframes Christianity’s central mystery: that the greatest shift of power in the universe came not through force—but through trust, yielding, and an open body willing to receive and transform life. 
  You’ll discover:Why Christ’s power looks far more maternal than imperialHow your body mirrors God’s way of creating, redeeming, and healing the worldWhy feminine vulnerability is not a weakness—but Heaven’s chosen technologyAnd how power, once broken open by love, becomes something you host, not something you hold 
  It speaks to the woman who has carried life, carried faith, carried others—and quietly wondered if God sees her strength as central, or merely supportive. 
  After Broken Power, you won’t read Scripture the same. 
  You won’t read yourself the same. 
  And you won’t mistake softness for smallness ever again. 
  This is a book for Christian women who are ready to stop apologizing for the way God designed them—and start trusting that He knew exactly what He was doing.

  The Baltic Sea is more than an inland sea – it is a historic geopolitical stage. From maritime travel in the Viking era toa NATO-dominated region, this brackish inland sea has been a lifeline for people and countries in northern Europe. The Baltic Sea has served as a hub for economic and political relations – with the dominance of the Hanseatic League in the Middle Ages, the Great Power Battles between Sweden, Poland-Lithuania and Russia, and the dramatic shifts in the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars as well as two World Wars and the Cold War. But the Baltic Sea is also a place of cooperation. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, the region has been characterized by integration and growth – a development that once again is being challenged by new geopolitical tensions. How will the future be affected by energy flows, climate change and military strategies? In this comprehensive anthology, leading scholars in history, political science, international relations and other subjects are brought together to examine the driving forces that have formed the Baltic Sea region from the 13th century until today.

  The Petroleum Papers - Inside...

  Geoff Dembicki

  Burning fossil fuels will cause catastrophic global warming: this is what top American oil executives were told by scientists in 1959. But they ignored that warning. Instead, they developed one of the biggest, most polluting oil sources in the world—the oil sands in Alberta, Canada. As investigative journalist Geoff Dembicki reveals in this explosive book, the decades-long conspiracy to keep the oil sands flowing into the US would turn out to be one of the biggest reasons for the world's failure to stop the climate crisis. 
   
   
   
  In The Petroleum Papers, Dembicki draws from confidential oil industry documents to uncover for the first time how companies like Exxon, Koch Industries, and Shell built a global right-wing echo chamber to protect oil sands profits—a misinformation campaign that continues to this day. He also tells the high-stakes stories of people fighting back: a Seattle lawyer who brought down Big Tobacco and is now going after Big Oil, a Filipina activist whose family drowned in a climate disaster, and a former Exxon engineer pushed out for asking hard questions. 
   
   
   
  With experts now warning we have less than a decade to get global emissions under control, The Petroleum Papers provides a step-by-step account of how we got to this precipice—and the politicians and companies who deserve our blame.
