Summary

Absurd Laws Worldwide explores the peculiar world of antiquated legislation still in effect across the globe. These strange laws, often rooted in specific historical events or cultural norms, reveal surprising insights into a nation's past and evolving sense of justice. For example, some regions still have laws regulating seemingly trivial activities, like poultry crossing roads, highlighting how outdated regulations can persist. The book not only examines these legal oddities but also delves into their impact on society and the reasons for their continued existence. The book takes an interdisciplinary approach, drawing connections to world history, political science, and even sociology to understand the broader context of these peculiar bans and legal loopholes. Organized around themes like outdated regulations and peculiar bans, the book progresses from introducing the concept of legal absurdity to detailed case studies from various countries. By examining court records and historical documents, the book sheds light on the challenges of legal reform and the ongoing debate between tradition and progress in legal systems.

  • Emotional Justice - A Roadmap for Racial Healing - cover

    Emotional Justice - A Roadmap...

    It is time for an emotional reckoning on our path to racial healing, sustainable equity, and the future of DEI. Here's the tool to help us navigate it. 
     
     
     
    In this groundbreaking book, Esther Armah argues that the crucial missing piece to racial healing and sustainable equity is emotional justice—a new racial healing language to help us do our emotional work. This work is part of the emotional reckoning we must navigate if racial healing is to be more than a dream. We all—white, Black, Brown—have our emotional work that we need to do. But that work is not the same for all of us. 
     
     
     
    This emotional work means unlearning the language of whiteness, a narrative that centers white people, particularly white men, no matter the deadly cost and consequence to all women and to global Black and Brown people. That's why a new racial healing language is crucial. 
     
     
     
    Emotional Justice grapples with how a legacy of untreated trauma from oppressive systems has created and sustained dual deadly fictions: white superiority and Black inferiority that shape—and wound—all of us. These systems must be dismantled to build a future that serves justice to everyone, not just some of us.
