  Invisible No More - Voices from...

  For too long, Native American people in the United States have been stereotyped as vestiges of the past, invisible citizens in their own land obliged to remind others, "We are still here!" Yet today, Native leaders are at the center of social change, challenging philanthropic organizations that have historically excluded Native people, and fighting for economic and environmental justice. 
   
   
   
  Invisible No More is a collection of stories by Native American leaders, many of them women, who are leading the way through cultural grounding and nation-building in the areas of community, environmental justice, and economic justice. Authors in the collection come from over a dozen Native nations. While telling their stories, authors excavate the history and ongoing effects of genocide and colonialism. At the same time, the authors detail ways that listeners might imagine the world differently, presenting stories of Native community building that offer benefits for all. 
   
   
   
  In a world facing a mounting climate crisis and record economic inequality, Invisible No More exposes the deep wounds of a racist past while offering a powerful call to care for one another and the planet. Indigenous communities have much to offer, not the least of which are solutions gleaned from cultural knowledge developed over generations.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  Expose the software, algorithms, and automated systems making decisions today that will determine your opportunities, options, and life trajectory for years to come. This forward-looking audiobook examines how current data collection and algorithmic classification creates persistent digital profiles that follow you indefinitely, influencing future decisions you cannot predict. Learn how early social media posts, browsing history, purchase patterns, and location data become permanent records used in ways never anticipated when you generated them. The narrator reveals how predictive algorithms project current patterns into future expectations that become self-fulfilling prophecies when institutions rely on these predictions. Discover the feedback loops between algorithmic prediction and opportunity allocation that can lock individuals into trajectories determined by past data regardless of present reality. Understand why data collected for one purpose inevitably finds other uses as systems interconnect and corporations trade information without your knowledge. This audiobook examines the concept of algorithmic fate, where automated systems increasingly determine life outcomes based on computations rather than human judgment or individual agency. Learn what data protection advocates, computer scientists, and civil liberties experts understand about long-term implications of current data practices. Perfect for young people whose digital lives are just beginning and anyone concerned about how present actions create future constraints through hidden technological processes.

  In Hack to the Future: How World Governments Relentlessly Pursue and Domesticate Hackers, veteran information security professional Emily Crose delivers a deep dive into the history of the United States government's nuanced relationship with hacker culture and the role the latter has played in the former's domestic policy and geopolitics. In the book, you'll learn about significant events that have changed the way the hacking community has been perceived by the public, the state, and other hackers. 
   
   
   
  The author explains how the US government managed to weaponize a subculture widely seen as misanthropic and awkward into a lever of geopolitical power. You'll also discover how the release of the Morris worm and the Melissa virus changed the way hackers were seen and treated in the United States; how different government agencies, including the National Security Agency and NASA, treated—and were treated by—domestic hackers; and how hacking went from being an exclusive hobby for socially awkward nerds to a substantial lever of geopolitical power in just a few decades. 
   
   
   
  Perfect for anyone with an interest in hacking, tech, infosec, and geopolitics, Hack to the Future is a must-listen for those who seek to better their understanding of the history of hacking culture and how we got to where we are today.
