Summary

"Civil Rights" explores the long struggle for racial equality in the United States, highlighting legislative milestones, activism, and key court decisions. The book argues that this pursuit is ongoing, requiring constant vigilance to dismantle systemic barriers. Understanding the history of slavery and Jim Crow laws is crucial for grasping current challenges, as the book examines the social, political, and economic forces impacting civil rights.

 
The book begins by introducing foundational concepts before chronologically exploring the movement's phases. It delves into landmark legislation like the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, analyzing their impact. Central figures are profiled, and contemporary issues like systemic racism and police brutality are examined, demonstrating the movement's enduring relevance.

 
Supported by primary and secondary sources, "Civil Rights" uniquely draws connections between history, political science, sociology, and legal studies. This interdisciplinary approach enhances the book's argument by illustrating how social, political, and legal factors interact to shape the landscape of civil rights, offering a comprehensive understanding of the movement.

    Optimize your life using science-backed advice and discover how to get your brain working at peak efficiency.   We all know how to nudge our brains to perform better. A strong cup of coffee helps us get through a dull meeting, and a brisk walk helps us think more clearly. But what if some nudges could optimise how we focus, create and process information even more effectively, to take mental performance to new heights?   Today, most office workers are expected to operate with industrial-era efficiency. Yet the work that matters most in our technology-dominated workplace – generating brilliant ideas, solving complex problems, and learning – can’t be manufactured like outputs on an assembly line. Instead, we need a new, HYPEREFFICIENT way of working: rather than imposing the rhythms of work on our brains, Dr. Mithu Storoni proposes we impose the rhythm of our brains on our work. Storoni explains that our brains function like a car’s engine, with multiple gears that put our brains in optimal mode for different mental challenges. Drawing on the latest research, she shows us how to seamlessly shift our brains into the best gear for the tasks we need to be doing, so we can perform at our best throughout the day, every day.

    The Muromachi Period, spanning from 1336 to 1573, marked a significant turning point in Japanese history, characterized by the rise of the Ashikaga Shogunate and the gradual shift toward decentralized feudal rule. This period emerged following the fall of the Kamakura Shogunate, as Ashikaga Takauji established his military government in Kyoto. The political, social, and cultural transformations that unfolded during this time laid the foundation for the later Sengoku era, a period of constant warfare among regional warlords. 
The decline of the Kamakura Shogunate stemmed from mounting dissatisfaction among the samurai class, who had grown discontent with the Hojo regents’ rule. The Mongol invasions of Japan in 1274 and 1281 had placed immense strain on the government, as victory brought no financial rewards for the warriors who had fought to defend the nation. With no lands to distribute as compensation, loyalty to the shogunate weakened, creating an opportunity for ambitious leaders to challenge its authority. Amid this unrest, Emperor Go-Daigo launched the Kenmu Restoration (1333–1336), an effort to reestablish imperial rule. However, his failure to recognize the interests of the samurai led to his downfall. 
Ashikaga Takauji, originally a supporter of the emperor, turned against him and seized power, defeating both imperial and Kamakura loyalists. In 1336, Takauji established his own military government, known as the Muromachi Bakufu, in Kyoto. Unlike the Kamakura Shogunate, which ruled from a distant military capital, the Muromachi Shogunate was strategically located in the heart of Japan’s cultural and political sphere. Takauji’s rule was solidified in 1338 when he was officially
