  As Hispanic citizens rally to the political right, they will provide the economic, cultural, and political renaissance to save the American republic. 
   
   
   
  Hispanics have moved materially to the political right in recent years—but why? What explains this marked and sustained shift? Bad Hombres details the radicalism of the modern Democratic Party, which has turned so many outcasts into political orphans. Steve Cortes provides evidence of the massive benefits of this Hispanic surge to the right. Cortes himself has been a key driver of this mass political movement, first as the lead Hispanic face of the 2016 and 2020 Trump campaigns, and presently as the primary Latino advocate for the New Right—patriotic populism. Given this vantage point, Cortes makes a powerful case that reveals how the teetering American nation will find a national rescue by entrepreneurial, tradition-minded Hispanic citizens.

  St. Paul’s initial transformation was a dramatic shift from Saul to Paul, from persecutor to believer, from darkness to light. And yet, the scales falling from his eyes was only the beginning: he lived and taught the lesson of transformation for the rest of his life.In his book, Fr. Cromly reveals the universality and timelessness of St. Paul’s leadership, what can happen if we let Christ transform our lives, and how we can find guidance from this great saint who is, in fact, much like us. Paul is the one who dares us to be impactful Christians in an often-perilous world, and who shows us how to transform our fears into courage, our rejections into opportunities, our suffering into grace, and our solitude into union with Christ.Narrated by the author, Fr. Nathan Cromly.

  This intimate and unflinching memoir explores Wen's struggle to survive, and confronts the belief that people don't change. Through appalling abuse and neglect, Wen finds a way to a very different kind of life, embodying resilience, healing and transformation. 
  The story is woven through with the intriguing themes of Wen's life. With humility, understanding and beauty, she delves into the plight of a stammerer, the unbreakable bonds of twinship, and her body's need to dissociate. 
  Wen's evocative imagery transports the reader from the red dirt of Broome, to the streets of India and the mists of Scotland. She crosses the continents, often by bicycle, committing to radical political action and spiritual exploration. These pursuits help forge her growing character. 
  After settling in Scotland, she uncovers buried memories of a terrifying Queensland childhood shrouded in threats and lies, and of her father's links to a Brisbane paedophile gang. 
  'To the outside world, we were the picture-perfect family. No one would have believed me, even if I could have found the words.' 
  She doesn't recoil from facing the truth of her childhood or the unconscionable harm her parents perpetuated. 
  Wen tells how she found her way to her heart and her true gender self. In doing so, she celebrates the power of kindness. Stammering Against Truth is a powerful and empowering book that proves past traumas need not define our futures.
