Este no es un manual ni otra aburrida lectura sobre diversidad, equidad e inclusión, como las charlas (casi sermones) de sensibilización que dan las empresas. NO vas a encontrar historias de superación ni condescendencia, pero sí muchas anécdotas de la vida real. Aquí NO vas a recibir regaños ni juicios por los discursos que te tocó aprender en la escuela, en la tele o en casa por el simple hecho de nacer en una determinada época.

«Ordine compagni!» è la frase che risuona tra i cordoni di manifestanti incaricati di salvaguardare la compattezza e la sicurezza del corteo. È il Sessantotto, si aprono gli anni delle rivolte e delle stragi; quelli passati alla storia come "anni di piombo", solcati dalla paura e dalla voglia di cambiare il mondo, dal desiderio di riscatto e dalla lotta politica. Il Servizio d'ordine si identifica quindi come il braccio armato che coordina e protegge studenti e operai scesi in piazza, i rivoluzionari, i ribelli, i sognatori.

Anna Politkovskaja è una giornalista russa uccisa, a quarantotto anni, nel 2006 a Mosca. Con i suoi capelli grigi e gli occhialini in metallo, è diventata un'icona della libertà di espressione.

A diciotto anni incontra Sasha, che diventerà un giornalista di successo.

El 2 de septiembre de 2016, la religiosa Isa Solá conducía por el centro de Puerto Príncipe cuando un hombre le disparó dos veces y acabó brutalmente con su vida. Solo tenía 51 años y muchos proyectos por hacer. Había llegado a Haití en 2008.

Fue entonces cuando Isa, tras sobrevivir milagrosamente al terremoto, decidió compartir para siempre su vida con ese país.

Some acts of courage never make the news, yet they are the quiet force that keeps the world steady. Quiet Valor: Everyday Americans shines a light on the men and women whose small, decisive moments hold families, communities, and entire towns together when it matters most.

Giulia Zollino ha vissuto questa educazione - o, sarebbe meglio dire, diseducazione - sulla propria pelle. Poi, però, ha incontrato il femminismo. È successo a Bologna, durante gli anni burrascosi dell'università, tra gruppi di discussione, letture e orgasmi. Ed è stato amore a prima vista. Questo incontro ha segnato uno spartiacque tra un prima e un dopo, da qui è partito il suo percorso di ribellione e riscoperta di sé. Il femminismo le ha insegnato a distruggere i miti nocivi, come quello della bellezza, permettendole di accettare e riappropriarsi del suo corpo.

In the capital, Ouagadougou, she begins working with street children—boys fighting to survive amid poverty, drugs, and violence. What begins as a single act of compassion becomes a lifelong mission.

Um retrato íntimo e nuançado de Martin Luther King Jr., nesta que é mais abrangente biografia já escrita sobre ele. Martin Luther King Jr. é dos "pais fundadores" dos Estados Unidos. Essa ideia, que à primeira vista pode soar excêntrica, ganha consistência — e se torna até tímida — com a leitura desta biografia, fruto de pesquisa exaustiva e baseada em arquivos do FBI só agora liberados pela Casa Branca. Aliás, podemos ir mais longe e ver King como um dos fundadores da própria democracia liberal moderna.

Part memoir and part manifesto, Tell Me My Story is one leader's message of hope and offers a map to healing for those doing humanitarian work. It's also a reminder: This service and the people who do it are crucial to our world, and we must equip, empower, and encourage them to work as the best version of themselves—for themselves, for their loved ones, and for the people they serve.

Twenty-five years old and struggling to find his way in his journalism career, the young reporter who had been covering local political stories found himself smack in the middle of the world's biggest geopolitical crisis—fleeing air raids and being questioned by militants along the way. One year later when Hamas carried out its October 7th attack, Sherman flew right back into the thick of it—running from rockets and diving into Hamas tunnels in Gaza. While shrouded in the proverbial "Fog of War," it became clear to Sherman that the world isn't as simple as he thought it was.

As much coverage as Jane Fonda has elicited through the years, the stories often skim past her prime filmmaking core. Fonda on Film spotlights the signature political films Fonda generated in the 1970s—Coming Home, The China Syndrome, 9 to 5, and more—that are still underappreciated even as Fonda endures as one of the world’s most admired and controversial performers. This is a movie book about a mega-celebrity, an origin story voyaging through Fonda’s learning years in the 1960s and the calculated payoff of the 1970s.

It was a clear Wednesday morning on September 10, 2025 when the news broke: Charlie Kirk, son, husband, father, evangelical and political leader, commentator and conservative firebrand, foe of the liberals, and friend of many, including President Donald J.
