Jesus and the Disinherited , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 191min
In this classic theological treatise, the acclaimed theologian and religious leader Howard Thurman (1900-1981) demonstrates how the gospel may be read as a manual of resistance for the poor and disenfranchised. Jesus is a partner in the pain of the oppressed and the example of his life offers a solution to ending the descent into moral nihilism. Hatred does not empower - it decays. Only through self-love and love of one another can God's justice prevail. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Chris Barton.

Terror in the Name of God: Why Religious Militants Kill, Hörbuch, Digital, 385min
For five years, Jessica Stern interviewed extremist members of three religions around the world: Christians, Jews, and Muslims. She traveled extensively (to refugee camps in Lebanon, religious schools in Pakistan, prisons in Amman, Ashqelon, and Pensacola) and discovered that the Islamic jihadi in the mountains of Pakistan and the Christian fundamentalist bomber in Oklahoma have much in common. Based on her vast research, Stern lucidly explains how terrorist organizations are formed by opportunistic leaders who, using religion as both motivation and justification, recruit the disenfranchised. She depicts how moral fervor is transformed into sophisticated organizations that strive for money, power, or attention and suggests how terrorism might most effectively be countered.

Understanding the Populist: Am I the Bad Guy? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 78min
What is driving the palpable shift in populism and right-wing sentiment? Identity politics has become a phenomenon taking over, but in a divided society, have some identities become more equal than others? This essay tries to empathize and understand those feeling increasingly disenfranchised with a society and media they feel no longer reflects them, and at worst is beginning to demonize them. In a "virtue signaling", self-professed professionalism, egocentric, "everyone's an expert" world, the author of this essay is a self-confessed failed fiction-writing, over-thinking antagonist, who knows full well his opinion is as worthy as the next man's. From the start he states all this is conjecture and shouldn't be taken seriously; after all, it's only politics. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kurt Kellerman.
