Instead of thinking about social justice as a process that starts with changing people's minds, Embodied Activism understands our bodies—how we feel in them and relate to others through them—as the sites of transformation.

Rassismus, Sexismus, Klassismus sind Sprachen der Unterdrückung. Die Grammatik, die ihnen unsichtbar zugrunde liegt, ist das System der Kaste. In ihrer augenöffnenden Analyse legt die Historikerin und Journalistin Isabel Wilkerson den Blick frei auf eben dieses Regelwerk, nach dem wir entscheiden, wem in einer Gesellschaft Ressourcen und Respekt zugestanden werden – und wem nicht. Wilkerson betrachtet neben den USA die Kastensysteme Indiens und des Dritten Reichs.

The ‘culture wars' have generated ferocious argument, but little clarity. This book takes the long view, explaining the real origins of ‘race' in Western thought, and tracing its path from those beginnings in the Enlightenment all the way to our own fractious world. In doing so, leading thinker Kenan Malik upends many assumptions underpinning today's heated debates around race, culture, whiteness and privilege.

Over the past year, we have seen a profound awakening. Institutions and communities have taken down statues and flags, the names of white supremacists in universities and on buildings have been replaced and as we continue to see action, we are also collectively unlearning incorrect history and leaning hard into the truth. In this radical work, social entrepreneur, philanthropic innovator and public academic, Rachel Cargle breaks down KEA - knowledge, empathy and action - and how these elements serve as a lens to reimagine everything from racial justice to relationships to education and beyond.

Americans are slowly waking up to the dire effects of racial profiling, police brutality, and mass incarceration, especially in disadvantaged neighborhoods and communities of color. Crook County bursts open the courthouse doors to reveal a world of punishment determined by race, not offense. Nicole Gonzalez Van Cleve spent ten years working in and investigating the largest criminal courthouse in the country, Chicago-Cook County, and she takes listeners inside our so-called halls of justice to witness the types of everyday racial abuses that fester within the courts, often in plain sight.

For over fifty years, the Shakurs have inspired generations of activists, scholars, and music fans. Many people are only familiar with Assata Shakur, the popular author and thinker, living for three decades in Cuban exile; or the late rapper Tupac. But the branches of the Shakur family tree extend widely, and the roots reach into the most furtive and hidden depths of the underground. Whether founding one of the most notorious Black Panther chapters in the country, spearheading community-based healthcare, or engaging in armed struggle with systemic oppression, the Shakurs were at the forefront.

In 1947, when this pamphlet was written, the ghastly memory of the Holocaust was fresh in the public mind. The author explores this climatic catastrophe of racial persecution to reveal it not as an anomalous occurrence, but rather as the evidence of a form of institutionalized prejudice which had operated for more than a millennium. “Humanity,” McCabe argues, “will enter into full and friendly cooperation only when the myths disappear and pure humanism is the base of man’s standard of conduct.”

Since the earliest days of Christianity, theologians expressed pervasive anxiety about Jews as equal members of society, and, with European expansion in the early modern period, that anxiety extended to people of color. This troubling legacy still haunts us today. Christian Supremacy demonstrates how theological and legal frameworks created by the church centuries ago laid the seeds of antisemitism and anti-Black racism and reveals why Christian identity lies at the heart of the world’s violent white supremacy movements.

Après l'espoir suscité par la présidence de Barack Obama, les années au pouvoir de Trump ont bien révélé que les inégalités entre blancs et noirs n'ont pas disparu. La pensée raciste est bien vivante, bien plus sophistiquée et insidieuse que jamais. Dans ce récit trés documenté, Ibram X. Kendi, historien incontournable de l'antiracisme, retrace la longue histoire des idées racistes anti-noires et de leur ancrage au cours de l'histoire américaine, à travers les portraits de cinq grands intellectuels américains.

As the newly appointed minister of education in Sierra Leone, David Moinina Sengeh assumed that the administration he served—not to mention his family and friends—shared his conviction that all girls belong in the classroom. He was shocked to learn that many of those closest to him, including a member of his own family, were against lifting a long-standing policy banning pregnant girls from school. Radical Inclusion is the dramatic narrative of Sengeh’s drive to guarantee pregnant girls’ right to an education.

In 2009, Jared Fishman was a young prosecutor working on low-level civil rights cases in the justice department when a file landed on his desk. That folder contained two items: a story from The Nation magazine looking into mysterious deaths in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina, and an autopsy report for a man named Henry Glover, whose charred remains were found in a burned-out car two weeks after the storm. The autopsy report, bafflingly, listed no cause of death.

Tackling the climate crisis requires us to visit the roots of poverty, capitalist exploitation, police brutality and legal injustice. Climate justice offers the real possibility of huge leaps towards racial equality and collective liberation as it aims to dismantle the very foundations of these issues. In this book, Mikaela Loach offers a fresh and radical perspective for real climate action that could drastically change the world as we know it for the benefit of us all.

Having conversations about race is uncomfortable. But for progress between individuals (and our communities) to happen, we need to be able to speak openly and honestly. Podcast hosts of The Kinswomen Yseult and Hannah use their own friendship and experiences from different racial backgrounds to offer guidance on navigating these layered conversations. In Real Friends Talk About Race, the duo share their two perspectives on the ways in which culture, history, and white supremacy have prevented us from having the skills to build trust and healthy relationships across race.

TANDEKSPERIMENTET PÅ VIPEHOLM handler om, da man i Sverige i slutningen af 1940'erne gav 436 psykisk udviklingshæmmede beboere på institutionen Vipeholm sukker i deres måltider for at undersøge sammenhængen mellem indtag af sukker og kariesaktivitet. Resultaterne har haft stor betydning for tandlægevidenskaben, men det havde også store konsekvenser for de involverede.

KVINDERNE PÅ SPROGØ handler om et politisk eksperiment, der strækker sig over årene 1923 til 1961. På den lille ø Sprogø i Storebælt placerer man, hvad man kalder ‘moralsk åndssvage’ kvinder - dvs. kvinder, der vurderes som svagt begavede og kvinder, der opfører sig ‘letfærdigt og løsagtigt’. Herude omgivet og indespærret af kilometervis af åbent hav vil man genopdrage kvinderne. Her er man sikker på, at de ikke får børn. Børn, man frygter vil ligge samfundet økonomisk til last og undergrave befolkningens arvemasse med deres dårlige gener.

DR. SHOCK OG AVERSIONSPROJEKTET handler om den canadiske psykiater Aubrey Levin, som i 1970'erne og 1980'erne forsøgte at "kurere" homoseksuelle mænd og kvinder i den Sydafrikanske hær. Dette skete med voldsomme og krænkende metoder, blandt andet ved at give dem elektrisk stød og mod deres vilje udsætte dem for kønsskifteoperationer. Videnskaben har altid eksperimenteret på mennesker, og resultaterne har haft stor betydning for meget af det, vi i dag ved om menneskekroppen og sindet.

TUSKEGEE-EKSPERIMENTET handler om, da det amerikanske sundhedsvæsens afdeling for kønssygdomme i 1930'erne får en idé til et behandlingsprogram for syfilis. Ideen om behandlingsprogrammet udvikler sig dog hurtigt i en helt anden foruroligende retning og bliver til et omfattende videnskabeligt eksperiment. Over de næste fire årtier deltager 600 personer i studiet. Alle deltagere i studiet er fattige afroamerikanske mænd fra den lille by Tuskegee i Alabama, USA, hvoraf omkring to-tredjedele har kønssygdommen syfilis.

Fast täglich wird Sawsan Chebli mit Hasskommentaren und Online-Hetze überhäuft. Wenn sie sich auf Social Media äußert, in einem Interview oder mit einem Zeitungsbeitrag in die öffentliche Debatte einmischt; wenn sie sich, wie so oft, leidenschaftlich für eine diverse und inklusive Gesellschaft ausspricht, türmt sich die Flut an Hate Speech mitunter zu brutalen Shitstorms auf. Dass aus digitaler schnell körperliche Gewalt werden kann, erlebte sie ganz unmittelbar, als sie eines Tages mitten in Berlin von einem Unbekannten körperlich angegriffen wurde.

Dr. Arline T. Geronimus coined the term “weathering” to describe the effects of systemic oppression—including racism and classism—on the body. In Weathering, based on more than 30 years of research, she argues that health and aging have more to do with how society treats us than how well we take care of ourselves. She explains what happens to human bodies as they attempt to withstand and overcome the challenges and insults that society leverages at them, and details how this process ravages their health. And she proposes solutions.
