  Secular Sabotage: How Liberals Are Destroying Religion and Culture in America , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 491min

  This assault is not happening from accident or whim. It is happening because disaffected liberals have deliberately set out to upend our Judeo-Christian traditions. Indeed, they are determined to tear down the traditional norms, values, and institutions that have been part of American society from its founding. The cultural debris that these saboteurs have created will take decades to clean up.In feisty prose Donohue explores our nation where a college student is threatened with expulsion because she prayed on campus, a civil-rights organization protests a statue of Jesus found on the ocean floor, and a housewife sues a school district to stop the singing of "Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer" at a school choral production. These are just a few examples cited that demonstrate a culture descending into madness. Donohue takes no prisoners as he digs out and exposes the groups behind this all-out attack on our Christian traditions. Among these are the radical atheists, the proponents of multiculturalism, the sexual libertines, the Hollywood elite with their not-so-hidden agenda, and lawyers who collaborate for profit. ungekürzt.

  The Rise and Decline of the American Century , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 869min

  In 1941, the magazine publishing titan Henry R. Luce urged the nation’s leaders to create an American Century. But in the post-World-War-II era, proponents of the American Century faced a daunting task. Even so, Luce had articulated an animating idea that, as William O. Walker III skillfully shows in The Rise and Decline of the American Century, would guide United States foreign policy through the years of hot and cold war.The American Century was, Walker argues, the counter-balance to defensive war during World War II and the containment of communism during the Cold War. American policymakers pursued an aggressive agenda to extend US influence around the globe through control of economic markets, reliance on nation-building, and, where necessary, provision of arms to allied forces. This positive program for the expansion of American power, Walker deftly demonstrates, came in for widespread criticism by the late 1950s. A changing world, epitomized by the nonaligned movement, challenged US leadership and denigrated the market democracy at the heart of the ideal of the American Century.The book is published by Cornell University Press. ungekürzt.

  The Gene Police: A Shep Harrington Smalltown Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 448min

  Before the words white supremacy filled the airways, before we learned of American Nazis and the alt-right, before there was a Muslim ban, before we considered building a wall or knew what DACA stands for, there was eugenics - a pseudoscience that promoted the belief that a race could be improved by controlling who was allowed to mate with whom.It was eugenics that compelled white doctors to attempt to murder Baby John. It was compassion that led to his kidnapping. And it is the cruelest of circumstances - the murder of Jennifer Rice - that 50 years later leads Shep Harrington to search for Baby John.As Shep soon learns, the quest brings him to the top of a slippery slope with an ill-defined edge. Question begets question, and the slide down the slope proves inevitable: What happened to the baby? Who took it? Why was he taken? And who killed Jennifer Rice?When Shep learns that Baby John was born at a hospital run by Alton Nichols, a famous Virginia eugenicist, he is drawn into the dark history of the American eugenics movement and its proponents - the so-called "gene police". ungekürzt.

  Out Where the West Begins, Volume 2: Creating and Civilizing the American West , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 690min

  In 1790, it was not a given that the young US, bruised and healing from its struggle for independence and populated by fewer than four million inhabitants, would even survive, much less flourish. But the great adventure that came next - the exploration and settlement of the lands lying to the west and stretching to the Pacific Ocean - would build a nation where only a patchwork of Eastern seaboard colonies had existed before.  The first audiobook in this series, Out Where the West Begins: Profiles, Visions, & Strategies of Early Western Business Leaders, profiled 50 individuals who made significant contributions to the economic development of a young nation. This second volume follows the saga of more than 100 influential men and women - political and military leaders, religious thinkers, civil rights proponents, suffragettes, African American pioneers, writers and artists, explorers and surveyors, architects, inventors, innovators, medical professionals, and conservationists - who together wove the story of early Western frontier America. The engaging account of their lives forms a unique tapestry of human experience. In the words of the author, “Understanding our distinctive past helps us better comprehend who we are now and who we wish to become.” ungekürzt.

  The Little Book of Restorative Justice in Education: Fostering Responsibility, Healing, and Hope in Schools (The Little Books of Justice and Peacebuilding Series) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 228min

  Much more than a response to harm, restorative justice nurtures relational, interconnected school cultures. The wisdom embedded within its principles and practices is being welcomed at a time when exclusionary discipline and zero-tolerance policies are recognized as perpetuating student apathy, disproportionality, and the school-to-prison pipeline. Relying on the wisdom of early proponents of restorative justice, the daily experiences of educators, and the authors’ extensive experience as classroom teachers and researchers, this Little Book guides the growth of restorative justice in education (RJE) into the future. Incorporating activities, stories, and examples throughout the book, three major interconnected and equally important aspects of restorative justice in education are explained and applied: creating just and equitable learning environments; building and maintaining healthy relationships; healing harm and transforming conflict The Little Book of Restorative Justice in Education is a reference that practitioners can turn to repeatedly for clarity and consistency as they implement restorative justice in educational settings. This audiobook includes a bonus lecture on restorative justice by series editor Howard Zehr. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. ungekürzt.

  The Struggle for America's Promise: Equal Opportunity at the Dawn of Corporate Capital , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 520min

  In The Struggle for America's Promise, Claire Goldstene seeks to untangle one of the enduring ideals in American history, that of economic opportunity. She explores the varied discourses about its meaning during the upheavals and corporate consolidations of the Gilded Age. Some proponents of equal opportunity seek to promote upward financial mobility by permitting more people to participate in the economic sphere thereby rewarding merit over inherited wealth. Others use opportunity as a mechanism to maintain economic inequality. This tension, embedded with the idea of equal opportunity itself and continually reaffirmed by immigrant populations, animated social dissent among urban workers while simultaneously serving efforts by business elites to counter such dissent. Goldstene uses a biographical approach to focus on key figures along a spectrum of political belief as they struggled to reconcile the inherent contradictions of equal opportunity. The Struggle for America's Promise includes such figures as Booker T. Washington, Samuel Gompers, Edward Bellamy, and Emma Goldman, who were more willing to step beyond the boundaries of the discourse about opportunity and question economic competition itself. The book is published by the University Press of Mississippi. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Janina Edwards.

  Scarlet A: The Ethics, Law, and Politics of Ordinary Abortion , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 459min

  Although Roe v. Wade identified abortion as a constitutional right 45 years ago, it still bears stigma - a proverbial scarlet A. Millions of Americans have participated in or benefited from an abortion, but few want to reveal that they have done so. Approximately one in five pregnancies in the US ends in abortion. Why is something so common, which has been legal so long, still a source of shame and secrecy? Why is it so regularly debated by politicians and so seldom divulged from friend to friend?   In public discussion, both proponents and opponents of abortion's legality tend to focus on extraordinary cases. This tendency keeps the national debate polarized and contentious and keeps our focus on the cases that occur the least.Professor Katie Watson focuses instead on the cases that happen the most, which she calls "ordinary abortion". Scarlet A gives the reflective listener a more accurate impression of what the majority of American abortion practice really looks like. It explains how our silence around private experience has distorted public opinion, and how, including both ordinary abortion and abortion ethics, could make our public exchanges more fruitful. ungekürzt.

  Mаnірulаtіоn Tесhnіԛuеѕ: Dаrk Psychology Influencing Pеорlе wіth Persuasion, NLP and Mind Cоntrоl , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 199min

  Manipulation is a massive concept that is apparent in almost every area of our social life. It is a puzzling motivating action aimed at interfering with another person's decision-making process, usually without his consent. These interference is achieved implicitly through the use of morally questionable techniques such as coercion, diversion, and misdirection. The trickery factor synonymous with deceit causes the practice to occur in almost infinite variations and in many different ways, ranging from a powerful weapon in the pursuit of indecent advertising to altruistic psychotherapy and even education steps. Nonetheless, social scientists have found out that without utilizing a certain degree of coercion, a successful improvement in human decision-making and actions cannot be accomplished. Manipulation is not exactly bribery, not manipulation, and not just deception-like. The enigmatic trend is located between these motivational behavior somewhere in the gray area, and this gray position poses critical difficulties in characterizing coercion and calculating its effect. The expert manipulator adopts tactics in a fashion that obscures his acts' moral and legal judgement. His sophisticated and illusive influencing methods challenge the wisdom of the open society's leading proponents. The problem exists in almost every aspect that can be considered, from politics to ads, employment, and even the most intimate relationships. ungekürzt.
