Title: A Better Tomorrow: Life Lessons in Hope and Strength Author: Mina Smallman Narrator: Sara Powell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 7 minutes Release date: July 25, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3 of Total 1 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. Mina Smallman has lived through the unimaginable. On Saturday 6 June 2020, her daughters, Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman, were killed in a park by a male stranger as they celebrated Bibaa's birthday. Mina has been fighting for justice ever since - for her daughters, and for the rest of us, by challenging the toxic culture in the Metropolitan Police and calling out the wider institutional misogyny, racism and classism in Britain. Now, she tells her story for the first time. Framed by Mina's experience of losing her two daughters, Bibaa and Nicole, A Better Tomorrow reflects on the lessons in strength, forgiveness and hope that life has taught her - from her difficult childhood, to her embrace of motherhood, her time as a schoolteacher, and then as the first woman of colour to be an Archdeacon in the Church of England. Told through grief and with compassion, humour and love, this deeply personal memoir is Mina's beacon of hope. 'I'd walk across hot coals to speak alongside Mina Smallman... An amazing woman' - Jess Phillips, MP 'Mina Smallman is as tough as she is warm' - Guardian © Mina Smallman 2024 (P) Penguin Audio 2024

   The Our Island Stories: Country Walks through Colonial Britain by Corinne Fowler

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650622 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650622) to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Our Island Stories: Country Walks through Colonial Britain Author: Corinne Fowler Narrator: Corinne Fowler Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 14 minutes Release date: May 2, 2024 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. The countryside is almost sacred to many Britons. There is a depth of feeling about rural places, the moors and lochs, valleys and mountains, cottages and country houses. Yet the British countryside, so integral to our national identity, is rarely seen as having anything to do with British colonialism. In Our Island Stories, historian Corinne Fowler brings rural life and colonial rule together with transformative results. Through ten country walks with varied companions, Fowler combines local and global history, connecting the Cotswolds to Calcutta, Dolgellau to Virginia, and Grasmere to Canton. Empire transformed rural lives: whether in Welsh sheep farms or Cornish copper mines, it offered both opportunity and exploitation. Fowler shows how the booming profits of overseas colonial activities directly contributed to enclosure, land clearances and dispossession. These histories, usually considered apart, continue to link the lives of their descendants now. To give an honest account, to offer both affection and criticism, is a matter of respect: we should not knowingly tell half a history. This new knowledge of our island stories, once gained, can only deepen Britons' relationship with their beloved landscape. ©2023 Corinne Fowler (P)2023 Penguin Audio

   Rebellion: How Antiliberalism Is Tearing America Apart--Again by Robert Kagan

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/652398 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/652398) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Rebellion: How Antiliberalism Is Tearing America Apart--Again Author: Robert Kagan Narrator: Jason Culp Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 55 minutes Release date: April 30, 2024 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: A chilling and clear-eyed warning about the threats to our democracy posed by the increasing radicalization of the Republican Party, from a leading historian and intellectual The 2024 election could be the last free election held in a unified America. So warns Robert Kagan in this brilliant and terrifying analysis of the perilous state of democracy in the United States today. If Donald Trump loses the upcoming election, as he did in 2020, but refuses to accept the result, as he also did in the last election, he is likely to call on his millions of followers to repudiate the election results. It will be a short step from there to Republican-dominated states rejecting the legitimacy of the federal government and effectively seceding. The United States at that point will cease to be united, with grave consequences for both Americans and the world. In Rebellion, Kagan dives deeper than the op-eds and think pieces to explore the historical forces that have brought us to this moment—in particular the long history of opposition to liberalism, and to government, that has shaped America’s character from the time of the Revolution to today. Trump’s unique capacity to tap into that tradition of dissent and circumvent the American system has brought us to the edge of dissolution—not for the first time in our history but possibly the last. This is an elegant and deeply informed synthesis of history, contemporary politics, and ideas that sheds light on this crucial moment.
