In this audiobook, beautifully narrated by the author, Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan reveals how Islamophobia not only lives under the skin of those who it marks, but is an international political project designed to divide people in the name of security, in order to materially benefit global stakeholders.

Ci sono storie che sono come pugni nello stomaco. Sono storie difficili da ascoltare e ancora più difficili da raccontare, ma una volta iniziate, è impossibile tornare indietro. Come succede in questo libro, dove si resta agganciati alle parole di Pablo Trincia, uno dei più abili storyteller di oggi, che qui apre scorci su vite distanti dalle nostre, ma solo per un caso fortuito. Ragazze e ragazzi di nazionalità, culture e fedi diverse, accomunati però da un unico e universale desiderio: poter vivere liberi e al sicuro.

Dr. Umes ist Herzchirurg, erfolgreicher Autor, engagiertes Mitglied der deutschen Gesellschaft - und dunkelhäutig. Wie viele andere farbige Menschen erlebt er immer wieder diskriminierendes Verhalten seiner Umwelt. Mal ist es nur eine dumme Bemerkung, mal ein gravierender Verstoß gegen seine Würde als Mensch. Gleichzeitig gibt es eine Debatte darüber, was man "eigentlich noch sagen darf", ohne in die rechte Ecke gestellt zu werden. Umes klagt nicht an, sondern klärt auf. Anhand seiner Biografie beschreibt er pointiert, mit welchen Schwierigkeiten farbige Menschen zu kämpfen haben.

Between 1846 and 1940, more than 50 million Europeans moved to the Americas, irrevocably changing both their new lands and the ones they left behind. Their immigration fostered an idea of the "land of the free", yet more than a third returned home again. In a groundbreaking study, Tara Zahra brilliantly explores the deeper story of this unprecedented movement of people.

Becoming German tells the intriguing story of the largest and earliest mass movement of German-speaking immigrants to America. The so-called Palatine migration of 1709 began in the western part of the Holy Roman Empire, where perhaps as many as 30,000 people left their homes, lured by rumors that Britain's Queen Anne would give them free passage overseas and land in America.

Ann Coulter is back, more fearless than ever. In Adios, America she touches the third rail in American politics, attacking the immigration issue head-on and flying in the face of La Raza, the Democrats, a media determined to cover up immigrants' crimes, churches that get paid by the government for their "charity," and greedy Republican businessmen and campaign consultants - all of whom are profiting handsomely from mass immigration that's tearing the country apart.

Every civilization reaches a point where its own efficiency becomes its worst enemy. Food is manufactured to be discarded. Energy is extracted from the earth only to be wasted heating empty buildings. Entire professions exist for no purpose other than to justify the professions that supervise them. The modern economy does not malfunction — it functions exactly as designed, and that is the problem. Previous thinkers proposed revolution, reform, disruption. Every attempt to rebuild the system from within produced the same result: catastrophe. The French Revolution devoured its children.

In Zeiten der Krise leiden Gesellschaft und Vielfalt. Für Max Czollek bieten staatstragende Konzepte wie "Leitkultur" oder "Integration" darauf keinerlei Antwort. Nach seiner viel diskutierten Streitschrift "Desintegriert euch!" entwirft Czollek nun das Modell für eine veränderte Gegenwart: Wie muss sich die Gesellschaft wandeln, damit Menschen gleichermaßen Solidarität erfahren? Welche liebgewonnenen Überzeugungen müssen wir alle dafür aufgeben? Max Czollek trifft ins Herz des Jahres 2020 - diese Polemik ist sein Schrittmacher.
