    Heimat los!
    Nach Alexander Granachs Autobiografie die hinreißenden Erinnerungen seines Sohnes GadDie Autobiografie des berühmten Schauspielers Alexander Granach begeistert mit ihrer Vitalität und Menschlichkeit seit Jahrzehnten. Sein Sohn Gad erzählt nicht nur die Geschichte seines Vaters zu Ende. Er entwirft auch ein hinreißendes, politisch völlig unkorrektes und darum ungemein menschliches Porträt jener Generation, die sich in den 30er Jahren nach Palästina retten konnte. Kein einfaches Schicksal für den lebenshungrigen jungen Gad, der mit Goethe und Tucholsky im Gepäck aus dem quirligen Berlin kam, um sich auf einmal in einem dem spröden Land abgetrotzten Kibbuz wieder zu finden ... Gad Granachs autobiographischer Bericht ist ein Lehrstück über das Berlin der dreißiger Jahre und über die Entstehung Israels, ein Dokument voller befreiendem Witz und unbestechlicher Lebensklugheit - ein Jahrhundertzeitzeuge.

    The Dark Numbers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 183min
    The first book in the award-winning Flemish Young Adult series, now available in English! Tim de Wilde has an affinity for numbers, a skill which brings him to the attention of the secretive WITCH school -- the Wonderful Institute for Terrific Children -- home to kids with "special" gifts. While Tim finds the students special, the teachers are another matter entirely: another scary matter. Headmaster Lovecraft behaves suspiciously. Handyman Igor skulks around in the background -- and yells at the rainclouds that follow him everywhere. Professor Bones is the worst of all, possessed of a horrible stench that chokes everyone to their needs. But there's something else about the school: A secret that rests in the basement. A secret the students are forbidden to investigate. A secret that intrigues Tim. A secret that will send Tim traveling into the past and force him to confront the strangest mystery of all. Something called The Dark Numbers... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kevin Gaddie. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/012689/bk_acx0_012689_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    The Rise and Fall of the Voting Rights Act: Studies in American Constitutional Heritage , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 529min
    On June 25, 2013, the US Supreme Court handed down its decision in Shelby County v. Holder, invalidating a key provision of voting rights law. The decision - the culmination of an eight-year battle over the power of Congress to regulate state conduct of elections - marked the closing of a chapter in American politics. That chapter had opened a century earlier in the case of Guinn v. United States, which ushered in national efforts to knock down racial barriers to the ballot. A detailed and timely history, The Rise and Fall of the Voting Rights Act analyzes changing legislation and the future of voting rights in the United States. In tracing the development of the Voting Rights Act from its inception, Charles S. Bullock III, Ronald Keith Gaddie, and Justin J. Wert begin by exploring the political and legal aspects of the Jim Crow electoral regime. Detailing both the subsequent struggle to enact the law and its impact, they explain why the Voting Rights Act was necessary. They go on to closely evaluate the 2013 Shelby County decision, describing how the ideological makeup of the Supreme Court created an appellate environment that made the act ripe for a challenge. ungekürzt.

On virtually every issue, from climate change to immigration, tens of millions of Americans have opinions and beliefs wildly at odds with fact, rendering them unable to think sensibly about politics. In How America Lost Its Mind, Thomas E. Patterson explains the rise of a world of “alternative facts” and the slow motion cultural and political calamity unfolding around us.A call to action, his book encourages us to wrest institutional power from ideologues and disrupters and entrust it to sensible citizens and leaders to restore our commitment to mutual tolerance and restraint, to cleanse the internet of fake news and disinformation, and to demand a steady supply of trustworthy and relevant information from our news sources.As philosopher Hannah Arendt wrote decades ago, the rise of demagogues is abetted by “people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists”. In How America Lost Its Mind, Thomas E. Patterson makes a passionate case for fully and fiercely engaging on the side of truth and mutual respect in our present arms race between fact and fake, unity and division, civility and incivility.The book is published by University of Oklahoma Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.Praise for the book:“A book...that needed to be written...the response of a reasoned, thinking person to a cultural and political calamity that he and many others saw unfolding in slow motion.” (Keith Gaddie, coauthor of The Rise and Fall of the Voting Rights Act) UNKNOWN N N ©2019 University of Oklahoma Press;(P)2020 Redwood Audiobooks http://www.audible.de/pd/B0842R8PN1?source_code=PNHFA145032019009G&ipRedirectOverride=true http://www.audible.de/pd/B0842R8PN1?source_code=PNHFA145032019009G&ipRedirectOverride=true Akashic Records + Mindfulness Mantra + Happiness Project with the Spiritual Growth: The Complete Guiro for Stop Anxiety, Stop Panick Attacks, Stop Kids Anxiety, Stop Worrying and End Panic (Unabridged) 25.95 AVAILABLE Akashic Records + Mindfulness Mantra + Happiness Project with the Spiritual Growth: The Complete Guiro for Stop Anxiety, Stop Panick Attacks, Stop Kids Anxiety, Stop Worrying and End Panic (Unabridged) Akashic Records + Mindfulness Mantra + Happiness Project with the Spiritual Growth (Unabridged) Layla Sun The complete guide to overcome anxiety.

(Gabrielle Union, author of We're Going to Need More Wine)A potent and electrifying critique of today's feminist movement announcing a fresh new voice in Black feminismToday's feminist movement has a glaring blind spot, and paradoxically, it is women. Mainstream feminists rarely talk about meeting basic needs as a feminist issue, argues Mikki Kendall, but food insecurity, access to quality education, safe neighborhoods, a living wage, and medical care are all feminist issues. All too often, however, the focus is not on basic survival for the many, but on increasing privilege for the few. That feminists refuse to prioritize these issues has only exacerbated the age-old problem of both internecine discord, and women who rebuff at carrying the title. Moreover, prominent white feminists broadly suffer from their own myopia with regard to how things like race, class, sexual orientation, and ability intersect with gender. How can we stand in solidarity as a movement, Kendall asks, when there is the distinct likelihood that some women are oppressing others?In her searing collection of essays, Mikki Kendall takes aim at the legitimacy of the modern feminist movement arguing that it has chronically failed to address the needs of all but a few women. Drawing on her own experiences with hunger, violence, and hypersexualization, along with incisive commentary on politics, pop culture, the stigma of mental health, and more, Hood Feminism delivers an irrefutable indictment of a movemen ungekürzt.
