Where Jim's Crows go to Die is a chilling story with many characters, whose destinies are tied to each other. President Ulysees S. Grant finds himself facing the opposition of the Ku Klux Klan after the Civil War is over. Ida B. Wells Barnett finds herself becoming the voice of self- defense. Christopher Columbus Nash puts leads the Colfax Massacre, which is the blueprint for several other racial massacres in U.S. history. 

For more than 15 years, award-winning journalist Sophie McNeill has reported on some of the most war-ravaged and oppressive places on earth, including Syria, Gaza, Yemen, West Bank and Iraq. In We Can't Say We Didn't Know, Sophie tells the human stories of devastation and hope behind the headlines—of children, families and refugees, of valiant doctors, steadfast dissidents and Saudi women seeking asylum. These innocent civilians bear the brunt of the lawlessness of the current age of impunity, where war crimes go unpunished and human rights are abused.

Die bekannte ZDF-Korrespondentin Katrin Eigendorf berichtet seit vielen Jahren regelmäßig aus der Ukraine. So auch während der dramatischen Tage und Wochen nach dem 24.

Katrin Eigendorf erzählt hier vom Krieg, den Putin mit aller Härte führt, vor allem gegen die Bevölkerung.

Eugenio Raúl Zaffaroni encara una historia implacable del patrimonio cultural criminal de la humanidad que hace del colonialismo su hilo conductor y llama a la resistencia y a la lucha por los Derechos Humanos desde el espíritu del Sur.

The speed of technological development, from cell phones to artificial intelligence, opens up exciting new opportunities for promoting human flourishing. It also raises grave risks, threatening not only personal privacy and dignity but also our collective survival. Technologies of Human Rights Representation asks: How can we open the black box of technological advances so that we can more fully understand their effects upon our lives? What can we do to make sure that these effects align with the values of human rights?

Alex Gladstein has a lot to say about Bitcoin, human rights, financial privilege, and personal freedom.

Congress and the Constitution are under attack all around the world. Muzzled and muffled are the voices of virtue and reason under a medical face mask. All that remains is confusion, chaos, and COVID. 

Cosa si prova a salvare vite nel Mediterraneo? Per capirlo puoi solo salire a bordo. "Nel Mediterraneo la vita la cerchi, la perdi o la trovi, e questa riduzione all'essenziale è potentissima. Senza orpelli, senza scappatoie, ti lascia a nudo confronto con una nuda alternativa, ti spoglia come l'acqua. Ma la chiave per capirlo non è il sentimento della morte. È il sentimento della vita". In questi anni, le navi delle Ong che soccorrono i migranti sono state al centro di polemiche e narrazioni ostili. Ma pochi conoscono quello che succede davvero a bordo.

Revelations about U.S. policies and practices of torture and abuse have captured headlines ever since the breaking of the Abu Ghraib prison story in April 2004. Since then, a debate has raged regarding what is and what is not acceptable behavior for the world's leading democracy. Within this context, Angela Davis, one of America's most remarkable political figures, gave a series of interviews to discuss resistance and law, institutional sexual coercion, politics, and prison. Throughout, Davis returns to her critique of a democracy compromised by its racist origins and institutions.

After a 1960 Supreme Court decision in Boynton v. Virginia, bus segregation was made illegal on new grounds. With this victory in hand, the Freedom Rides of 1961 began. Organized primarily by the Congress on Racial Equality, the Freedom Rides followed the same guidance that inspired the Montgomery Boycott—nonviolent direct action. The momentum generated by the Freedom Rides and the following activism would lead to the famous March on Washington and eventually the passage of a historic civil rights bill in 1964.

During my Scholarly Writing course in law school over the summer (2021), I was "free-writing" on this topic to see if this would be my topic for my paper—instead, I had a conversation with myself, and this is the end result!

Injustice. Black America. Media. Corruption at the highest levels of government. Only one dollar. This is the case you've never heard of--until now. In City of Los Angeles v. Preferred Communications, the US District Court, Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the US Supreme Court agreed that the city had violated the civil rights of half a million people for 10 years and had refused to comply with a nine-zero decision by the Supreme Court of the United States.

On 26 March 2020, a new law appeared. In 11 pages, it locked down tens of millions of people, confined us to our homes, banned socialising, closed shops, gyms, pubs, places of worship. It restricted our freedoms more than any other law in history, justified by the rapid spread of a deadly new virus. You might have expected such a law to be fiercely debated in Parliament. But it wasn't debated at all. A state of emergency was declared, meaning the law came into force the moment it was signed. 

The Pocket Guide to Communism presents crucial material about communism that all Americans need if they are to defend their liberty and freedom. We let our guard down, but it was only a delusion that Marxist communism was defeated when the Berlin Wall fell. It had merely gone underground and regrouped. In particular, the Chinese strain of communism is much more sophisticated and subtle than the Russian brand. They view warfare as “unrestricted” and have made every aspect of our lives and minds a battlefield. More wars are lost due to confusion than anything else.

Justice for Some offers a new approach to understanding the Palestinian struggle for freedom, told through the power and control of international law. Focusing on key junctures—from the Balfour Declaration in 1917 to present-day wars in Gaza—Noura Erakat shows how the strategic deployment of law has shaped current conditions. Over the past century, the law has done more to advance Israel's interests than the Palestinians'. But, Erakat argues, this outcome was never inevitable.
