The world is encountering multiple crises—climate, droughts, floods, energy, food, and pandemics, to name a few. We have a problem, this is the solution. Capitalism and Crises is about how capitalism can fix them—how it can solve not cause them. The reason why it has caused them is that we have misconceived the nature of our capitalist system. We have failed to understand the key institution at the heart of it—business—and as a result we have allowed it to cause as well as solve problems. This book describes why this has happened and what needs to change to address it. Drawing on history, philosophy, psychology, and biology as well economics, law, and finance, Mayer describes what has gone wrong, what needs to change, and how to fix it. He sets out the big challenges that capitalism must address and how it should set about doing that, and discusses how financial institutions should be at the heart of this, and how the public sector can work with the private on a common purpose of solving problems and creating shared prosperity. Capitalism and Crises provides an inspiring and motivational roadmap of how we as practitioners, policymakers, consumers, employees, communities, students, and citizens of the world can together tackle the challenges of the twenty-first century—to flourish and survive.Voir livre
Urban transportation plays a pivotal role in shaping the way cities function, impacting everything from daily commuting to the overall economic and environmental health of urban areas. In modern society, cities are becoming increasingly crowded, with more people migrating to urban centers in search of opportunities, better infrastructure, and access to services. As populations swell, urban transportation systems have struggled to keep pace with demand, leading to issues such as congestion, pollution, and inefficiency. Historically, urban transportation has evolved in response to changing needs and technological advancements. Early cities relied on walking and horse-drawn carriages, but with the rise of industrialization, motorized transport took over. Streetcars, buses, and eventually cars became the main modes of transport in urban environments. However, as cities expanded and the number of vehicles grew, so did the problems associated with these systems. Traffic congestion became a daily reality in many metropolitan areas, with commuters spending hours stuck in traffic, wasting time, and burning fuel. Environmental concerns further compounded the issue. The increasing number of vehicles on the road, many of which run on fossil fuels, has significantly contributed to air pollution, climate change, and the depletion of natural resources. As cities continue to grow, the challenge of balancing transportation needs with environmental sustainability has become more urgent. In response, there has been a global push to shift toward more sustainable, efficient, and inclusive transportation systems.Voir livre
In How to Lose the Hounds Celeste Winston explores marronage—the practice of flight from and placemaking beyond slavery—as a guide to police abolition. She examines historically Black maroon communities in the Maryland suburbs of Washington, DC, that have been subjected to violent excesses of police power from slavery until the present day. Tracing the long and ongoing historical geography of Black freedom struggles in the face of anti-Black police violence in these communities, Winston shows how marronage provides critical lessons for reimagining public safety and community well-being. These freedom struggles take place in what Winston calls maroon geographies—sites of flight from slavery and the spaces of freedom produced in multigenerational Black communities. Maroon geographies constitute part of a Black placemaking tradition that asserts life-affirming forms of community. Winston contends that maroon geographies operate as a central method of Black flight, holding ground, and constructing places of freedom in ways that imagine and plan a world beyond policing.Voir livre
The story of King Hezekiah reminds us that we should not wait until tomorrow to do what we can do today. Don't waste the time He has given you. Do something meaningful with your life to give God a reason to keep you alive! Glorify God with your life today and He will enable you to do it again tomorrow. Your life is not yours to do with as you please. It is God's gift to you! The song at the end of the sermon "Wonderful Grace", sung by Chey, gives the listener time to reflect on Pastor Philip's message.Voir livre

It takes strength not to curse someone out when they’re being rude, or not to lose it when your child is being disobedient. It is also emotionally taxing to keep it all together when you are on the receiving end of a microaggression. Each of these instances requires us to use our emotional intelligence (or EQ). And, while it is a basic skill, there are more shades to emotional intelligence than you might think. Emotional intelligence can also be used to break barriers to equity. In The Color of Emotional Intelligence, psychotherapist and well-being expert Farah Harris uses personal stories, anecdotes, and insight to discuss:The fundamentals of emotional intelligence and barriers to practicing EQ effectivelyHow emotional intelligence is used as a survival skill by marginalized peopleDifferent types of stressors, including microaggressions, and resulting unhealthy defensive tactics, such as code-switching and maskingSelf-care strategies for handling systemic stressors that affect people from marginalized groupsTools everyone can use to elevate their emotional intelligence to address inequities and become better stewards of humanity Don’t go through life seeing things in black and white. It’s time to see the world in color.Voir livre
