Описание: "The breakout star of the new activists." --The Economist"If Democrats are able to retake the House in 2018, it will be a victory built from Greenberg and Levin's blueprint." --Politico"One of the biggest successes so far this year...Indivisible has played a leading role in turning out voters at congressional town halls to voice their opposition." --The New York Times "The centerpiece of a robust new grassroots machinery." --Rolling StoneThis is a story of democracy under threat. It's the story of a movement rising up to respond. And it's a story of what comes next. Shortly after Trump's election, two outraged former congressional staffers wrote and posted a tactical guide to resisting the Trump agenda. This Google Doc entitled "Indivisible" was meant to be read by friends and family. No one could have predicted what happened next. It went viral, sparking the creation of thousands of local Indivisible groups in red, blue, and purple states, mobilizing millions of people and evolving into a defining movement of the Trump Era. From crowding town halls to killing TrumpCare to rallying around candidates to build the Blue Wave, Indivisibles powered the fight against Trump--and pushed the limits of what was politically possible. In We Are Indivisible: A Blueprint for Democracy After Trump, the (still-married ) co-executive directors of Indivisible tell the story of the movement. They offer a behind-the-scenes look at how change comes to Washington, whether Washington wants it or not. And they explain how we'll win the coming fight for the future of American democracy. We Are Indivisible isn't a book of platitudes about hope; it's a steely-eyed guide to people power--how to find it, how to build it, and how to use it to usher in the post-Trump era. *All proceeds to the author go to Indivisible's Save Democracy Fund

Human rights activists frequently claim that human rights are indivisible, and the United Nations has declared the indivisibility, interdependency, and interrelatedness of these rights to be beyond dispute. Yet in practice a significant divide remains between the two grand categories of human rights: civil and political rights, on the one hand, and economic, social, and cultural rights on the other. To date, few scholars have critically examined how the notion of indivisibility has shaped the complex relationship between these two sets of rights. In Indivisible Human Rights, Daniel J. Whelan offers a carefully crafted account of the rhetoric of indivisibility. Whelan traces the political and historical development of the concept, which originated in the contentious debates surrounding the translation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights into binding treaty law as two separate Covenants on Human Rights. In the 1960s and 1970s, Whelan demonstrates, postcolonial states employed a revisionist rhetoric of indivisibility to elevate economic and social rights over civil and political rights, eventually resulting in the declaration of a right to development. By the 1990s, the rhetoric of indivisibility had shifted to emphasize restoration of the fundamental unity of human rights and reaffirm the obligation of states to uphold both major human rights categories—thus opening the door to charges of violations resulting from underdevelopment and poverty. As Indivisible Human Rights illustrates, the rhetoric of indivisibility has frequently been used to further political ends that have little to do with promoting the rights of the individual. Drawing on scores of original documents, many of them long forgotten, Whelan lets the players in this drama speak for themselves, revealing the conflicts and compromises behind a half century of human rights discourse. Indivisible Human Rights will be welcomed by scholars and practitioners seeking a deeper understanding of the complexities surrounding the realization of human rights.

A Mexican drug cartel dismembers the body of a rival and then stitches his face onto a soccer ball. These are the sorts of grisly tales that dominate the media, infiltrate movies and TV shows, and ultimately shape Americans' perception of Mexico as a dangerous and scary place, overrun by brutal drug lords. Without a doubt, the drug war is real. In the last six years, over 60,000 people have been murdered in narco-related crimes. But, there is far more to Mexico's story than this gruesome narrative would suggest. While thugs have been grabbing the headlines, Mexico has undergone an unprecedented and under-publicized political, economic, and social transformation. In her groundbreaking book, Two Nations Indivisible, Shannon K. O'Neil argues that the United States is making a grave mistake by focusing on the politics of antagonism toward Mexico. Rather, we should wake up to the revolution of prosperity now unfolding there. The news that isn't being reported is that, over the last decade, Mexico has become a real democracy, providing its citizens a greater voice and opportunities to succeed on their own side of the border. Armed with higher levels of education, upwardly-mobile men and women have been working their way out of poverty, building the largest, most stable middle class in Mexico's history. This is the Mexico Americans need to get to know. Now more than ever, the two countries are indivisible. It is past time for the U.S. to forge a new relationship with its southern neighbor. Because in no uncertain terms, our future depends on it.

Описание: The writing of these stories began when a sixteen-year-old black girl sitting in a high school class in Trenton N.J raised her hand. Her all black class had been assigned the task of writing a short essay on any personal experience with a white person. She raised her hand to say simply, "I don't know any white people except my teachers." Then other hands throughout the class sprung up as other students expressed the same problem. Ta-Nehisi Coates, author of the blockbuster bestseller, Between the World and Me, created the 2015 book as a warning letter to his then fifteen-year-old son. Early in the book, he likewise confessed, "when I was your age, the only people I knew were black." Coates wrote the book as a message of danger to black America. "The essential relationship across American history between black people and white people is one of exploitation and one of plunder.... Here is what I would like for you to know: In America, it is traditional to destroy the black body--it is heritage.... The power of the American state and the weight of an American legacy necessitate that of the bodies destroyed every year, some wild and disproportionate number of them will be black." While his book draws on his own anguished experiences as a black teenager and black man in America, he also widely summons the many stories, past and present, of black oppression in America. When African-American novelist Toni Morrison called Between the World and Me "required reading," she cemented his standing as the preeminent African American voice of his generation. Indivisible in no way questions either the truth or the immense importance of the notorious stories which led Coates to his conclusion that the physical threat to black America continues relentlessly. In 1921 Tulsa Oklahoma, a white mob burns down 35 blocks of black residences and businesses. While visiting Mississippi in 1955, Emmitt Till, a 14-year old African American from Chicago, is lynched by two white men. In 1963 Birmingham Alabama, Sheriff Bull Conner directs his police force to use fire hoses and attack dogs on African American Civil Rights protesters. In 1992 Los Angeles, race riots erupt with 63 people killed and over 12,000 arrested. That history carries ceaselessly into the present as stories of black-white conflict continue to seize current headlines. On a 2012 night in Florida, George Zimmerman, a white neighborhood watchman and Trayvon Martin, a black teenager, confront each other and violently struggle. Trayvon dies. In 2014 Ferguson Missouri, a white police officer shoots an unarmed black teenager. The story of white police shooting unarmed black males repeats itself in one American city after another. In Charleston, S.C., a 21-year old white male who self-identified as a "white supremacist" walks into the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church and guns down nine church members. When TV show host Stephen Colbert interviewed Coates in 2017, he expressed both understanding and admiration for Coates message. He also offered an opportunity for Coates to soften his stark pessimism. "Do you see any hope that we could have better race relations?" Coates rejected it. "No, I would have to make s--- up to answer that question in a satisfying way." When Colbert and Coates discussed "race relations" on The Late Show, they were reasonably following the lead of academics, activists who frame the topic of race relations as a "national issue." Georgetown Sociology Professor Michael Eric Dyson pronounced, "White supremacy is the conscious or unconscious belief in the superiority of some while others are believed to be innately inferior. It is a machine operating in perpetuity." Civil rights activist Reverend Al Sharpton preached, "Discrimination and inequality still saturate our society...through racism may be lass blatant, its existence is undeniable."

Charlie returns home from Afghanistan to discover that his battles are just beginning.
Ever since the death of his best friend, Charlie can hardly look in the mirror. He feels alienated from himself, and suddenly, things that used to feel simple seem unexplainably complicated. The weight of his past presses heavily on his soul. He wonders if everything that he did-letting his best friend enlist, deciding to enlist with him, being unable to talk about the war after they got home-all somehow led to his best friend's suicide.
As time moves on, Charlie keeps one foot in the past and one in the present. He feels himself getting stretched thinner and thinner. The weight on him only piles up, and whatever clarity he has about his life seems to only get more and more foggy. He talks to everyone he can, trying to get answers about why his best friend, who once seemed so happy, decided to die. It's a puzzle that he tries to solve like a mystery, trying to piece together parts of his friend's past, seeking a simple answer that'll make everything seem rational. He believes that then, he'll be okay. Then, he'll move on. However, for every answer, there seem to be ten more questions.
EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS an in-depth look at the trauma of returning from war, PTSD, and at suicide by war vets and the struggles of those they leave behind.
