A che punto siamo in Italia con l'estensione dei diritti, con l'abbattimento degli stereotipi di genere, con il definitivo superamento della mentalità e delle nostalgie fasciste? Cosa ne è stato del Ddl Zan, che avrebbe dovuto finalmente dotare anche il nostro Paese di una legge contro l'omobitransfobia e che invece, dopo essere stato bocciato al Senato nel 2021, è uscito dall'agenda politica? E cosa ne è stato della presunta "emergenza immigrazione", sventolata per anni dalla destra a colpi di fake news?

Social justice matters because we—each of us—matter. Unless we learn to co-exist as equals, we will never live optimally. To denigrate any one of us is to demean all of us. Absent the wholesale embrace of social justice, we risk succumbing to human tendencies to stereotype, "otherize," and scapegoat. Those tendencies, left unchecked, lead to horrific ends. When we see ourselves in others, we understand that our shared humanity eclipses all else. Through our disagreements, we must never doubt the dignity and worth of the other.

Women have been at the forefront of significant positive change for generations, and yet they still struggle to have their voices heard. There is no more obvious example of this than when learning about modern history, where little acknowledgment is given to women's incredible feats and sacrifices during major world events. However, there are hundreds of true stories of brave women activists, each one fighting for important causes such as ending slavery and other forms of oppression.

In June 1972, President Richard Nixon put pen to paper and signed the Educational Amendments of 1972 into law. The nearly 150-page document makes no mention of “gender,” “athletics,” “girls,” or “women.” The bill did not appear to contain anything earth shattering. But tucked into its final pages, a heading appears, “Title IX—Prohibition of Sex Discrimination.” These 37 words would change the world for girls and women across the United States. On its face, Title IX legally guaranteed equal opportunity in education.

This story is a tapestry woven with threads of resilience, love, and adventure. It's about more than working on the original Star Trek or her slave ancestor's love story; it's a journey through history, loss, and triumph.

Long at the forefront of a movement advocating for gun reform as a matter of public health, Dr. Jonathan M. Metzl has been on constant media call in the aftermath of fatal shootings. But the 2018 Nashville killings led him on a path toward recognizing the limitations of biomedical frameworks for fully diagnosing or treating the impassioned complexities of American gun politics. As he came to understand it, public health is a harder sell in a nation that fundamentally disagrees about what it means to be safe, healthy, or free.

We as a society are self-censoring at record rates. Say the wrong thing at the wrong moment to the wrong person and the consequences can be dire. Think that everyone should be treated equally regardless of race? You're a racist who needs to be kicked out of the online forum that you started. Believe there are biological differences between men and women? You're a sexist who should be fired with cause. Argue that people should be able to speak freely within the bounds of the law?

In Before the Movement, Dylan C. Penningroth brilliantly revises the conventional story. Drawing on long-forgotten sources found in the basements of county courthouses across the nation, Penningroth reveals that African Americans, far from being ignorant about law until the middle of the twentieth century, have thought about, talked about, and used it going as far back as even the era of slavery.

Der Politikwissenschaftler und ZEIT-Herausgeber Yascha Mounk geht dem Ursprung der neuen Ideen über Identität und soziale Gerechtigkeit nach – und erklärt, warum sie ihre hehren Ziele nicht erreichen werden. Über weite Strecken der Geschichte wurden Menschen aufgrund ihrer Ethnie, ihrer Religion oder ihres Geschlechts gewaltsam unterdrückt. Mitglieder dieser Gruppen setzten schließlich auf gegenseitige Solidarität und ein eigenes Identitätsbewusstsein, um diesen Ungerechtigkeiten zu trotzen.

Patrick Zaki in questo libro racconta la sua storia: cosa è successo davvero quel giorno e cosa è avvenuto poi, nei giorni successivi: gli interrogatori, l’isolamento, le torture, il confronto con un mondo – quello delle carceri – in cui tutti sono ridotti a una condizione disumana. E cosa lo ha tenuto vivo: gli studi, la passione per il calcio, la musica, l’affetto dei suoi cari, dell’amata Reny, dell’Italia tutta.

1800 से 1925 ई. के मध्य, भील क्षेत्रों के लगभग दो सौ से अधिक भील मुखियाओं का संघर्ष कभी प्रकाश में नहीं आया था। खानदेश, मध्यभारत और महाराष्ट्र के ज्यादातर भील विद्रोह अछूते रह गए थे। 1857 के विद्रोह का जिक्र करते समय काजी सिंह, भीमा नायक, भागोजी, पुत्ता सिंह, मवासिया, खाला नायक, दुलार सिंह, सीताराम बावा, रघुनाथ सिंह मंडलोई, भोमिया बिसेन सिंह और कालू बाबा आदि के योगदान को भुला दिया गया था। एक दमित, अशिक्षित और प्रताड़ित समाज के संघर्षमय इतिहास की यह अनदेखी वाकई में चिंता का कारण इसलिए भी है कि भीलों ने देशहित में कभी पीठ न दिखाई।

James Baldwin's impassioned plea to 'end the racial nightmare' in America was a bestseller when it appeared in 1963, galvanising a nation and giving voice to the emerging civil rights movement. Told in the form of two intensely personal 'letters', The Fire Next Time is at once a powerful evocation of Baldwin's early life in Harlem and an excoriating condemnation of the terrible legacy of racial injustice.
