  The Moral Circle - Who Matters...

  Today, human exceptionalism is the norm. Despite occasional nods to animal welfare, we prioritize humanity, often neglecting the welfare of a vast number of beings. As a result, we use hundreds of billions of vertebrates and trillions of invertebrates every year for a variety of purposes, often unnecessarily. We also plan to use animals, AI systems, and other nonhumans at even higher levels in the future. Yet as the dominant species, humanity has a responsibility to ask: Which nonhumans matter, how much do they matter, and what do we owe them in a world reshaped by human activity and technology? 
   
   
   
  In The Moral Circle, philosopher Jeff Sebo challenges us to include all potentially significant beings in our moral community, with transformative implications for our lives and societies. 
   
   
   
  This book explores provocative case studies such as lawsuits over captive elephants and debates over factory-farmed insects, and compels us to consider future ethical quandaries, such as whether to send microbes to new planets, and whether to create virtual worlds filled with digital minds. Taking an expansive view of human responsibility, Sebo argues that building a positive future requires the shedding of human exceptionalism and radically rethinking our place in the world.

  CONSCIOUSNESS OR SUPERCONSCIOUSNESS THIS IS THE DILEMMA The present society continues to run like a mad elephant, toward global catastrophe. Why do we continue on this road that leads us to a dead end, with end view our own self-destruction? The answer to this question lies in human consciousness itself, the cause of every problem, while Superconsciousness is the solution to every difficulty. What is the difference between consciousness and Superconsciousness? Superconsciousness consciously connects us with everything that exists, and to understand it better we can make the analogy of a network: everything in existence is like a node that can have the illusion of being separate from the rest of the network. Most people are like that, they feel like a node separated from the rest, like a single individual separated from the rest of Humanity. This feeling of separation is the mode in which consciousness operates.

  Black Power Scorecard -...

  From the creator of “a unified field theory of racism” (NPR’s Planet Money), a dollars-and-cents reckoning of the state of Black America and a new framework to close the power gap Historically, Black Americans’ quest for power has been understood as an attempt to gain equal protections under the law. But power in America requires more than basic democratic freedoms. It is inextricably linked with economic influence and ownership—of one’s self, home, business, and creations. Andre M. Perry draws on extensive research and analysis to quantify how much power Black Americans actually have. Ranging from property, business, and wealth to education, health, and social mobility, Black Power Scorecard moves across the country, evaluating people’s ability to set the rules of the game and calculating how that translates into the ultimate means of power—life itself, and the longevity of Black communities. Along the way, Perry identifies woefully overlooked areas of investment that could close the racial gap and benefit everyone. An expansive take on power supported by documentation and data, Black Power Scorecard is a fresh contribution to the country’s reckoning with structural inequality, one that offers a new approach to redressing it.A Macmillan Audio production from Metropolitan Books.

  Es posible que conozcas a alguien que está en una relación con alguien que es emocionalmente abusivo, o podrías estar en una relación con alguien así. O tal vez no sabe cómo reconocerlo y tiene curiosidad por saber cómo reconocer las señales. Cualquiera que sea la razón, ha venido a la dirección correcta.Dado que está en todos los medios y las historias horribles resuenan a través de nuestros oídos empáticos, es casi obligatorio que cualquier civil comprensivo en la sociedad comprenda al menos algunos conceptos básicos cuando se trata de abuso sexual. Los hechos están ahí afuera, y realmente le está sucediendo a la gente en secreto y, a veces, sin ocultar nada. En este libro, aprenderá a comprender la realidad de este triste fenómeno en la sociedad.Es posible que algunos de nosotros hayamos pasado por eso y otros lo hayan visto en los hogares de otras personas. La violencia doméstica es un problema grave. Las estadísticas no mienten, pero tampoco son completamente precisas. Revelan a las víctimas que hablan, pero no a las que callan. Si se pregunta qué implica la violencia doméstica, qué hacer y cómo reconocerla, entonces ha venido al lugar correcto.En una parte del libro, hay un estudio, con las cuestiones específicas que se relacionan con las tendencias suicidas. Salen a la luz causas y consecuencias, y se hacen comparaciones entre países, individuos y desencadenantes que llevan a una persona en estado depresivo a contemplar lo impensable.Quizás no uno severo, pero el abuso verbal ocurre todo el tiempo. Cada vez que las personas son malas entre sí, en cierto grado, están abusando de otro con sus palabras. Pueden ser extraños, compañeros de trabajo, jefes, tu cónyuge, tus padres, tu novio o novia, o tus amigos.
