Summary

In the annals of American history, few names resonate with such power and poignancy as that of Nat Turner. His name is synonymous with rebellion, resistance, and the indomitable spirit of those who dared to break the chains of oppression.

Nat Turner's rebellion in 1831 was a defining moment in the history of the United States. It shattered the myth of the contented slave and the benign master, and it intensified the forces of change that would ultimately lead to the Civil War. Turner's rebellion was a watershed event in the history of slavery in the United States. It was the largest and most successful slave rebellion in American history, and it sent shockwaves throughout the nation.

This book tells the story of Nat Turner's rebellion, from its origins in the brutal and dehumanizing conditions of slavery to its tragic conclusion. It is a story of courage, betrayal, and the indomitable spirit of those who dared to fight for their freedom.

This book also explores the legacy of Nat Turner's rebellion. It examines the impact of the rebellion on the abolitionist movement, the Civil War, and the ongoing struggle for racial justice in America. It also considers Turner's legacy as a symbol of resistance and inspiration for generations of activists and freedom fighters.

This book is a comprehensive and authoritative account of Nat Turner's rebellion and its legacy. It is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, the history of slavery, or the struggle for racial justice.

    Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz. 
In more than 400 verses the Buddha clearly expounds his noble path of virtue for everyman. This foundation scripture teaches the supreme doctrine of nirvana and the way to the highest possible happiness for mankind. 
Translated by Oxford professor Dr. Max Muller, a great scholar and Orientalist with an introduction by Kevin Trainor, Associate Professor of Religion at the University of Vermont. The Dhammapada - the Path of Truth - is a beautiful anthology of proverbs and aphorisms which are considered to be as close to the Buddha's own words as we can ever reach. 
The work outlines the Buddha's Four Noble Truths: that life is full of suffering, which all of us must accept, that the cause of suffering is desirer, that the removal of desire removes suffering; and finally that deliverance might be obtained by following the Noble Eightfold Path. 
The Dhammapada is arranged in chapters which cover themes and topics such as Choices, Wakefulness, the World, the Awakened, Joy, Pleasure, Anger, Impurity, Justice, the Way, Desire, the Seeker and The True Master.

  • Lament for a Nation - The Defeat of Canadian Nationalism - cover

    Lament for a Nation - The Defeat...

    George Grant, Andrew Potter

    Canadians have relatively few binding national myths, but one of the most pervasive and enduring is the conviction that the country is doomed. In 1965 George Grant passionately defended Canadian identity by asking fundamental questions about the meaning and future of Canada’s political existence. In Lament for a Nation he argued that Canada – immense and underpopulated, defined in part by the border, history, and culture it shares with the United States, and torn by conflicting loyalties to Britain, Quebec, and America – had ceased to exist as a sovereign state. Lament for a Nation became the seminal work in Canadian political thought and Grant became known as the father of Canadian nationalism.
		 
This edition includes a major introduction by Andrew Potter that explores Grant’s arguments in the context of changes in ethnic diversity, free trade, globalization, post-modernism, and 9/11. Potter discusses the shifting uses of the terms “liberal” and “conservative” and closes with a look at the current state of Canadian nationalism.

    The Theory of Moral Sentiments

    "The Theory of Moral Sentiments" is a book written by Adam Smith, a Scottish philosopher and economist who lived from 1723 to 1790. First published in 1759, the book is considered one of the most important works in the field of moral philosophy. 
In the book, Smith explores the nature of morality and the role of sympathy and empathy in human interactions. He argues that human beings are naturally inclined to feel sympathy for others, and that this sympathy forms the basis of moral judgments. He also discusses the concept of the "impartial spectator," an imagined observer who helps us to judge the morality of our own actions. 
Smith's ideas in "The Theory of Moral Sentiments" have had a profound impact on fields beyond moral philosophy, including economics and political theory. In his later work, "The Wealth of Nations," Smith developed his ideas on the nature of markets and the division of labor, which have become foundational concepts in modern economics. 
Overall, "The Theory of Moral Sentiments" is a key work in the development of Western moral philosophy, and is still widely studied and debated today.
