Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US in Denial: the 'Facade of Freedom' From a gradual rise to totalitarianism, the common 99% American is losing voice to systems under the influence of Supremacist control through courts ran under prosecutorial discretion: - The innocent incarcerated convicted on hearsay. - Disadvantaged citizens prosecuted by Supremacist representation without a fair trial. - Title IV Funding snowballing into prompted falsified documentation & the termination of parental rights without substantiated reason of abuse or neglect. - Charity organizations (501C3s) not offering tangible support to their represented victims yet primarily funding their employees' trivial duties. - Culture being aligned with ill-repute morals & dysfunctional foundation. The author stands up for defense of civil liberties while addressing the controversial viewpoints of both the conservative & the left-winged citizen. Playing the devil's advocate to both sides of the coin to injustices & denied liberties allows the reader to hone in on their personal beliefs & perspectives regarding liberty & inalienable rights as a citizen within the Civil Union. Essentially, three types of citizens are addressed: Supremacists whose subconscious & intentional motives are to torment other human beings (denying their civil rights to the point of incarceration), Abolitionists (whose desire is to free our citizens from Supremacist enslavement), & the apathetic (whose indifference is shattering America's well-being as the Supremacist continues robbing the average American of civil liberties). Forget the Republican verses the Democrat. Ignore the left-winged verses the right. The people in the House, Senate, & common citizens alike can divide themselves like immature rivals, but in reality both parties are choosing roles as Supremacists or Abolitionists promoting the Constitution or denying it--either upholding fellow Americans or oppressing its citizens. "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction...We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." - Ronald Reagan

Download or read book Fa ade written by Sukhmani Brar and published by Sukhmani Brar. This book was released on 2023-01-15 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Façade is a collection of poems that directs readers' attention to the shadows. Most people are afraid of the dark because they think it consumes them when it actually defines them. The poetry in this piece helps us comprehend that beyond all outward appearances, a person's inner spirit may be found; beneath all emotions of joy, love, remorse, and regret, however, lies an unwavering darkness. Even adults can connect to a lot of what teens experience because façade just addresses the most fundamental layer of the fakeness put up to conceal the genuine darkness beneath.

Download or read book No Escape written by Paul Passavant and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2003-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional legal and political scholarship places liberalism, which promotes and defends individual legal rights, in direct opposition to communitarianism, which focuses on the greater good of the social group. According to this mode of thought, liberals value legal rights for precisely the same reason that communitarians seek to limit their scope: they privilege the individual over the community. However, could it be that liberalism is not antithetical to social group identities like nationalism as is traditionally understood? Is it possible that those who assert liberal rights might even strengthen aspects of nationalism? No Escape argues that this is exactly the case, beginning with the observation that, paradoxical as it might seem, liberalism and nationalism have historically coincided in the United States. No Escape proves that liberal government and nationalism can mutually reinforce each other, taking as its example a preeminent and seemingly universal liberal legal right, freedom of speech, and illustrating how it can function in a way that actually reproduces nationally exclusive conditions of power. No Escape boldly re-evaluates the relationship between liberal rights and the community at a time when the call has gone out for the nation to defend the freedom to live our way of life. Passavant challenges us to reconsider traditional modes of thought, providing a fresh perspective on seemingly intransigent political and legal debates.

Download or read book Ambivalence and the Postcolonial Subject written by Gera Burton and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regarded as «Cuba's most mysterious poet», Juan Francisco Manzano continues to intrigue scholars across disciplines. Using a postcolonial approach, this book breaks new ground by exploring the poet's connection with the Irish civil rights champion, Richard Robert Madden. Drawing on previously untapped sources, Gera C. Burton takes a fresh look at the relationship between these two extraordinary individuals to reveal facts considered critical in achieving an understanding of their association, with particular resonance for postcolonial studies. What emerges, regardless of their ambivalence, is the creation of a strategic alliance forged by the two writers in opposition to the colonial powers. Scholars in the fields of Latin American, postcolonial, and Diasporic studies, along with specialists in Cuban and Irish studies will welcome this significant contribution to the body of work on «la gente sin historia» - the people without a history.

Download or read book Freedom s Tree written by Kenneth Lippincott and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-12-12 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever desired to escape and live simply? Have you ever fantasized about moving to a small town? Having spent half of my forty-three year career as a high school principal and volunteer pastor in small towns and counties with less than five thousand people, I learned that bliss was superficial. No matter how positive, people resisted change, especially with a newcomer serving as the agent of change. Kinfolk mattered more than issues. To survive, newcomers walked a fine line and had to learn who controlled and who was related to whom. Relationships mattered more than issues. Good versus evil became obvious. In Freedom’s Tree, Rock Creek Valley resembled Canaanite cities with heavily fortified bulwarks. Interstate highway construction had decimated the economy and school reorganization altered valley culture. Perceived as invaders, newcomers arrived in Rock Creek at God’s direction, while a murderer escaped detection and residents presumed another’s guilt.

Download or read book Escaping Hitler written by Monty Halls and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘I was on a train, and a German soldier began shouting at me and poking me in the ribs with his machine gun. I just thought that was it, the game was up . . .’ Downed airman Bob Frost faced danger at every turn as he was smuggled out of France and over the Pyrenees. Prisoner of war Len Harley went on the run in Italy, surviving months in hiding and then a hazardous climb over the Abruzzo mountains with German troops hot on his heels. These are just some of the stories told in heart-stopping detail as Monty Halls takes us along the freedom trails out of occupied Europe, from the immense French escape lines to lesser-known routes in Italy and Slovenia. Escaping Hitler features spies and traitors, extraordinary heroism from those who ran the escape routes and offered shelter to escapees, and great feats of endurance. The SAS in Operation Galia fought for forty days behind enemy lines in Italy and then, exhausted and pursued by the enemy, exfiltrated across the Apennine mountains. And in Slovenia Australian POW Ralph Churches and British Les Laws orchestrated the largest successful Allied escape of the entire war. Mixing new research, interviews with survivors and his own experience of walking the trails, Monty brings the past to life in this dramatic and gripping slice of military history.

Download or read book The Lives of Erich Fromm written by Lawrence J. Friedman and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Erich Fromm was a political activist, psychologist, psychoanalyst, philosopher, and one of the most important intellectuals of the twentieth century. Known for his theories of personality and political insight, Fromm dissected the sadomasochistic appeal of brutal dictators while also eloquently championing loveÑwhich, he insisted, was nothing if it did not involve joyful contact with others and humanity at large. Admired all over the world, Fromm continues to inspire with his message of universal brotherhood and quest for lasting peace. The first systematic study of FrommÕs influences and achievements, this biography revisits the thinkerÕs most important works, especially Escape from Freedom and The Art of Loving, which conveyed important and complex ideas to millions of readers. The volume recounts FrommÕs political activism as a founder and major funder of Amnesty International, the National Committee for a Sane Nuclear Policy, and other peace groups. Consulting rare archival materials across the globe, Lawrence J. Friedman reveals FrommÕs support for anti-Stalinist democratic movements in Central and Eastern Europe and his efforts to revitalize American democracy. For the first time, readers learn about FrommÕs direct contact with high officials in the American government on matters of war and peace while accessing a deeper understanding of his conceptual differences with Freud, his rapport with Neo-Freudians like Karen Horney and Harry Stack Sullivan, and his association with innovative artists, public intellectuals, and world leaders. Friedman elucidates FrommÕs key intellectual contributions, especially his innovative concept of Òsocial character,Ó in which social institutions and practices shape the inner psyche, and he clarifies FrommÕs conception of love as an acquired skill. Taking full stock of the thinkerÕs historical and global accomplishments, Friedman portrays a man of immense authenticity and spirituality who made life in the twentieth century more humane than it might have been.

The Freedom in the World political rights and civil liberties ratings are determined through a multi-layered process of research and evaluation by a team of regional analysts and eminent scholars. The analysts used a broad range of sources of information, including foreign and domestic news reports, academic studies, nongovernmental organizations, think tanks, individual professional contacts, and visits to the region, in conducting their research. The methodology of the survey is derived in large measure from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and these standards are applied to all countries and territories, irrespective of geographical location, ethnic or religious composition, or level of economic development.
