Author: Mary-Alice Daniel
Narrator: Liz Femi
A poetic coming-of-age memoir that probes the legacies and myths of family, race, and religion-from Nigeria to England to America. Mary-Alice Daniel's family moved from West Africa to England when she was a very young girl, leaving behind the vivid culture of her native land in the Nigerian savanna. They arrived to a blanched, cold world of prim suburbs and unfamiliar customs. So began her family's series of travels across three continents in search of places of belonging. A Coastline Is an Immeasurable Thing ventures through the physical and mythical landscapes of Daniel's upbringing. Against the backdrop of a migratory adolescence, she reckons with race, religious conflict, culture clash, and a multiplicity of possible identities. Daniel lays bare the lives and legends of her parents and past generations, unearthing the tribal mythologies that shaped her kin and her own way of being in the world.

Eamon Doyle, "Is America a Democracy or an Oligarchy? "
English | ISBN: 1534508147 | 2021 | 128 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
"Since the inception of the United States, certain democratic principles have been inherent to the nation's political identity. Theoretically, this means that all citizens should receive equal representation and opportunity. However, income inequality has grown in recent years and shows no signs of slowing. Some argue that the wealthy are given unequal power over the government and society as a whole, creating an oligarchy. The viewpoints in this volume examine the development of the country from political, social, and economic perspectives to determine whether the country can still be considered a democracy"-

Morgenthau: Power, Privilege, and the Rise of an American Dynasty (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BH9CXTNL | 2022 | 38 hours and 44 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 991 MB
Author: Andrew Meier
Narrator: Mark Deakins
An "epic and intimate" portrait of four generations of the Morgenthau family, a dynasty of power brokers and public officials with an outsize-and previously unmapped-influence extending from daily life in New York City to the shaping of the American Century. After coming to America from Germany in 1866, the Morgenthaus made history in international diplomacy, in domestic politics, and in America's criminal justice system. With unprecedented, exclusive access to family archives, award-winning journalist and biographer Andrew Meier vividly chronicles how the Morgenthaus amassed a fortune in Manhattan real estate, advised presidents, advanced the New Deal, exposed the Armenian genocide, rescued victims of the Holocaust, waged war in the Mediterranean and Pacific, and, from a foundation of private wealth, built a dynasty of public service. In the words of former mayor Ed Koch, they were "the closest we've got to royalty in New York City."

English | ASIN: B0BLXH154J | 2022 | 7 hours and 58 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 222 MB
Author: Joshua S Porter
Narrator: Joshua S Porter
"Another Christian renounces the church and Christ." "Former Christian music star turns her back on faith." "I kissed Christianity goodbye." Headlines like these are becoming common. It seems like the most popular trend in faith circles lately is to deconstruct, then deconvert. Joshua Porter knows that story from the inside out. He was raised in the tangles of American evangelical Christianity, and the church he knew was conservative, fundamentalist, and politicized. It feared culture, music, art, Dungeons & Dragons, Harry Potter, and anything else that was slightly suspect.

Marie Jahoda, Paul F. Lazarsfeld, Hans Zeisel, "Marienthal: The Sociography of an Unemployed Community"
English | 2002 | pages: 177 | ISBN: 0765809443, 1138527645 | PDF | 5,6 mb
"One of the main theses of the Marienthal study was that prolonged unemployment leads to a state of apathy in which the victims do not utilize any longer even the few opportunities left to them. The vicious cycle between reduced opportunities and reduced level of aspiration has remained the focus of all subsequent discussions." So begin the opening remarks to the English-language edition of what has become a major classic in the literature of social stratification.
