Trans and nonbinary people around the world are facing physical harm and violence—including death—at unprecedented rates.

Daniel Taub, an experienced peace negotiator and diplomat, argues that ancient Jewish wisdom offers a third way.

The far right manipulates class anger to undercut progressive goals and liberals often inadvertently play into their hands. In Outclassed, Joan C. Williams explains how to reverse that process by bridging the “diploma divide”, while maintaining core progressive values. She offers college-educated Americans insights into how their values reflect their lives and their lives reflect their privilege.

In By the Second Spring, the historian Danielle Leavitt goes beyond familiar portraits of wartime heroism and victimhood to reveal the human experience of the conflict.

Auf der Suche nach dem moralischen Kompass. Wo sind sie alle, wenn es darum geht, Flagge zu zeigen? Wenn die Zeit gekommen ist, zu dem zu stehen, was noch vor nicht allzu langer Zeit vollmundig verkündet wurde? In der Republik der Feiglinge geht der moralische Kompass schneller verloren, als Wahlversprechen gebrochen werden. Warum das so ist? Versuch einer Diagnose. Feigheit ist keine zeitgenössische Erfindung. Alte Kulturen sahen den Feigling als – übel beleumundete – Randfigur der Gemeinschaft.

In Ludlow, Kentucky, where Confederate flags once dominated the landscape and call for civil war echoed on Facebook, a circus raised its big top—and never left. On January 20, 2025, as Donald Trump returned to office, the KKK plastered the town with hateful fliers, but the circus, a 250-year-old beacon of diversity and inclusion, stood its ground. This is the true, stranger-than-fiction story of how a creative community defied hate, bureaucracy, and small-town politics to transform Ludlow into Kentucky’s hottest real estate market.

We humans have an extraordinary capacity for compassion—much of it in response to the atrocities we inflict on the planet, its animals, and each other. The popular explanation for this paradox is that we evolved as carnivorous “killer apes,” who gradually curbed our lust for violence (with frequent exceptions) by implementing humane social norms. This explanation is so well worn, especially in the American psyche, that it epitomizes cliché. So, we could be forgiven for believing it, when nearly every word is fiction.

They pitched tents, formed an encampment, and settled in. Known as an outspoken social justice activist, Helwig has spent the last three years getting to know the residents and fighting tooth and nail to allow them to stay, battling various authorities that want to clear the yard and keep the results of the housing crisis out of sight and out of mind.

Umes Arunagirinathan und Peggy Parnass trennten fünfzig Lebensjahre, die Hautfarbe, das Geschlecht und auch sonst eine ganze Menge. Doch entscheidend ist, was sie verband. Beide erlebten die tiefgreifende Erfahrung von Flucht und Vertreibung. Peggy wurde von ihrer Mutter 1939 auf einem Kindertransport nach Schweden geschickt, um sie vor der NS-Verfolgung zu retten. Umes kam als 13-jähriger unbegleiteter Flüchtling aus Sri Lanka nach Deutschland. Bei beiden verursacht dieses Schicksal viel Leid, aber löst auch den tiefen Wunsch aus, die Welt besser zu machen.

Borders are not just meaningless geographical lines. They have an impact on all of our lives, whether it's the fallout from Brexit or the inhumanity of a detention center. In Border Nation, Leah Cowan shows how borders are violent, oppressive, and must be resisted. Looking back, we learn of the elitist, colonial, and patriarchal origins of borders, explore the vital history of anti-racist, anti-border organizing and hear stories from people who have crossed partitions.
