Sinopsis

⛓️ What would you do if your life of freedom was stolen overnight?

Twelve Years a Slave is the extraordinary true account of Solomon Northup, a free African American man living in New York, who was kidnapped in 1841 and sold into slavery. For twelve harrowing years, he endured unimaginable cruelty on Southern plantations before finally regaining his freedom.

This powerful memoir is not only a story of survival but also an unflinching testimony to the brutal realities of slavery in America. With courage, dignity, and resilience, Northup exposes the injustice of human bondage while holding on to his faith in freedom and justice.

Adapted into the Academy Award–winning film, this book remains one of the most important firsthand narratives of slavery ever written—essential reading for understanding history, injustice, and the indomitable strength of the human spirit.

    Disability and Political Representation explores how disabled people experience the various stages and aspects of the representation process, drawing upon extensive empirical research and a variety of qualitative and quantitative data. It discusses why increasing the number of disabled politicians matters, not only as a matter of justice and equality but also to better represent the issues and interests of importance to disabled people. 
     
     
     
    Evans and Reher identify a variety of ableist barriers that prevent disabled people from fully participating in the political process, from disenfranchisement and inaccessible polling stations to prejudice within parties and a lack of financial support for candidates who require adjustments. The work shows that while the preferences of disabled citizens are currently under-represented in parliament, disabled representatives often draw on their lived experience to advocate for their interests. The concept of experiential representation is developed to help scholars and practitioners better navigate the concept of political representation, specifically as it relates to disability.

    Veil of Silence - How the Irish...

    In 1985 John Corcoran, a garda informer within the ranks of the Cork IRA, was abducted and brutally executed by the IRA. No one has ever been charged with his murder, but for decades, speculation was rife that gardaí of the highest rank allowed Corcoran – a father of eight – to be murdered to protect Sean O’Callaghan, the state’s most prized IRA informer during the Troubles. 
     
    Now, for the first time, J.P. O’Sullivan, Corcoran’s Special Branch handler, breaks his silence. He reveals the chain of events leading to the killing, including detailed reports he filed warning of potential threats to his informant’s life that were systematically ignored by garda intelligence. He recounts how he was inexplicably sidelined from the investigation into Corcoran’s murder and later framed and convicted for a crime he did not commit in order to silence him and bury the truth. 
     
    O’Sullivan’s account is a damning indictment of garda complicity in covering up an IRA murder. It exposes murky manoeuvres, a flawed investigation, and the devastating cost paid by a detective who refused to back down. This is a story of betrayal and justice denied in a state under siege, and one man’s quest for justice.
