"Stille ist der neue Luxus. Stille enthält eine Qualität, die exklusiver und beständiger ist als jeder andere Luxus." Was ist Stille? Wo ist sie? Warum ist sie heute wichtiger denn je?

Entstanden ist ein Wegweiser für den modernen Menschen auf seiner Suche nach Stille, Ruhe, Frieden - überall dort, wo es laut ist.

Die stolze bäuerliche Landwirtschaft mit Viehmärkten, Selbstversorgung und harter Knochenarbeit ist im Laufe der Sechzigerjahre in rasantem Tempo und doch ganz leise verschwunden. Ewald Frie erzählt am Beispiel seiner Familie von der großen Zäsur. Mit wenigen Strichen, anhand von vielsagenden Szenen und Beispielen zeigt er, wie die Welt der Eltern unterging, die Geschwister anderen Lebensentwürfen folgten und der allgemeine gesellschaftliche Wandel das Land erfasste.

Abramowitsch hat eine, der Emir von Abu Dhabi auch, Jeff Bezos sowieso: Superyachten sind Ausweis der Zugehörigkeit zum Club der "lucky few". Sie ermöglichen grenzenlose Mobilität und exklusiven Geltungskonsum. Zugleich sind sie schwimmende Umweltsünden. Sie verbrennen Unmengen Treibstoff, ihre Anker zerstören kostbare Flora. Und sie sind Spielfelder obszöner Ungleichheit: Während ihre Besitzer zu den einflussreichsten Menschen der Welt gehören, ist das Bordpersonal oft Willkür und Rechtlosigkeit ausgeliefert.

Ein individueller Stillweg, der gesellschaftspolitische Ebenen wie gleichberechtigte Elternschaft und körperliche Selbstbestimmung einschließt, muss möglich sein. Dafür braucht es Wissen, Sichtbarkeit und das Erkennen, dass Stillen nicht nur Gebärende etwas angeht.

1974. A 22-year-old Jacqui French stands for a photograph in Omaha, Nebraska, thousands of miles from home. Behind a carefree smile lies a fierce hope, fuelled by the promise of a new beginning and the tapestry of opportunity an America of Gloria Steinem, Dorothy Pitman Hughes, and the newly passed Roe v. Wade, appeared to offer. The world was changing, and women’s fortunes seemed to be changing with it. It was this photo of her mother, discovered by accident decades later, that set Marisa on the path to this book.

Evangelicalism in America has cracked, split on the shoals of the 2016 presidential election and its aftermath, leaving many wondering if they want to be in or out of the evangelical tribe.

Drawing on over 100 interviews with black, white, and Latino working-class residents of a declining coal town in Pennsylvania, Silva reveals how the decline of the American Dream is lived and felt. The routines and rhythms of traditional working-class life such as manual labor, unions, marriage, church, and social clubs have diminished.

America's great promise of equality has always rung hollow in the ears of African Americans. But today the situation has grown even more dire. From the murders of black youth by the police to the dismantling of the Voting Rights Act to the disaster visited upon poor and middle-class black families by the Great Recession, it is clear that black America faces an emergency - at the very moment the election of the first black president has prompted many to believe we've solved America's race problem.

The uprising of 2020 marked a new phase in the unfolding Movement for Black Lives. The brutal killings of Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, and Breonna Taylor, and countless other injustices large and small, were the match that lit the spark of the largest protest movement in US history, a historic uprising against racism and the politics of disposability that the Covid-19 pandemic lays bare. In this urgent and incisive collection of new interviews bookended by two new essays, Marc Lamont Hill critically examines the “pre-existing conditions” that have led us to this moment.

With the troubling and painful events of the last several years - from the shooting of numerous unarmed black men at the hands of police to the rallying of white supremacists in Charlottesville - it is clearer than ever that the reconciliation paradigm, long favored by white Christians, has failed to heal the deep racial wounds in the church and American society. In this provocative audiobook, originally published in 2014, Jennifer Harvey argues for a radical shift away from the well-meaning but feeble longing for reconciliation toward a robustly biblical call for reparations.
