America Is in the Heart

A collectible hardcover edition of a 1946 Filipino American classic set in the U.S. in the 1930s about a Filipino migrant laborer who endures racial violence and struggles with the paradox of the American dream A Penguin Vitae Edition Poet, essayist, novelist, fiction writer and labor organizer, Carlos Bulosan (1911-1956) wrote one of the most influential working class literary classics about the U.S. pre-World War II, a period and setting similar to that of Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath and Cannery Row. Bulosan's semi-autobiographical novel America is in the Heart begins with the narrator's rural childhood in the Philippines and the struggles of land-poor peasant families affected by US imperialism after the Spanish American War of the late 1890s. Carlos's experiences with other Filipino migrant laborers, who endured intense racial abuse in the fields, orchards, towns, cities and canneries of California and the Pacific Northwest in the 1930s, reexamine the ideals of the American dream. Bulosan was one of the most important 20th century social critics with his deeply moving account of what it was like to be criminalized in the U.S. as a Filipino migrant drawn to the ideals of what America symbolized and committed to social justice for all marginalized groups. Penguin Vitae-loosely translated as "Penguin of one's life"-is a deluxe hardcover series from Penguin Classics celebrating a dynamic and diverse landscape of classic fiction and nonfiction from seventy-five years of classics publishing. Penguin Vitae provides readers with beautifully designed classics that have shaped the course of their lives, and welcomes new readers to discover these literary gifts of personal inspiration, intellectual engagement, and creative originality.

The Divide: American Injustice in the Age of the Wealth Gap , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 841min

A scathing portrait of an urgent new American crisis. Over the last two decades, America has been falling deeper and deeper into a statistical mystery: Poverty goes up. Crime goes down. The prison population doubles. Fraud by the rich wipes out 40 percent of the world’s wealth. The rich get massively richer. No one goes to jail. In search of a solution, journalist Matt Taibbi discovered the Divide, the seam in American life where our two most troubling trends - growing wealth inequality and mass incarceration - come together, driven by a dramatic shift in American citizenship: Our basic rights are now determined by our wealth or poverty. The Divide is what allows massively destructive fraud by the hyperwealthy to go unpunished, while turning poverty itself into a crime - but it’s impossible to see until you look at these two alarming trends side by side. In The Divide, Matt Taibbi takes readers on a galvanizing journey through both sides of our new system of justice - the fun-house-mirror worlds of the untouchably wealthy and the criminalized poor. He uncovers the startling looting that preceded the financial collapse; a wild conspiracy of billionaire hedge fund managers to destroy a company through dirty tricks; and the story of a whistleblower who gets in the way of the largest banks in America, only to find herself in the crosshairs. On the other side of the Divide, Taibbi takes us to the front lines of the immigrant dragnet; into the newly punitive welfare system which treats its beneficiaries as thieves; and deep inside the stop-and-frisk world, where standing in front of your own home has become an arrestable offense. As he narrates these incredible stories, he draws out and analyzes their common source: a perverse new standard of justice, based on a radical, disturbing new vision of civil rights. Through astonishing - and enraging - accounts of the high-stakes capers of the wealthy and nightmare stories of reg ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ray Porter.

Give Speech A Chance (eBook, ePUB)

Give Speech A Chance, a timely and prescient anthology of scintillating essays by Harley Price, Ph.D., a brilliant social and political commentator, is "a dazzling collection of mordant essays on the aberrant Zeitgeist," according to Paul Gottfried in Chronicles magazine. In his Preface to the book, William Gairdner states that "In addition to being a very clear thinker with a profound historical and aesthetic sense of almost the entire Western tradition in literature, religion, poetry, mythology, and art - Harley is also a very amusing fellow." The Preface provides excerpts from the book on atheism, discrimination, victimology, abortion, conservatism, liberalism, and Jesus. In her Foreword, Fran Griffin of FGF Books, the book's publisher, calls this book "a remarkable collection of some of the best essays on our culture and society available today. ... As the conservator of the 40-year legacy of writer and author, Joseph Sobran (1946-2010), the Fitzgerald Griffin Foundation could not be more pleased that this new book is dedicated to him." Noting Sobran's "satirical vivisections of the liberal 'hive,'" which "will inspire conservatives for generations," Dr. Price states in his Dedication to this book that "none will approach" Sobran's "brilliance, eloquence or wit." Paul Gottfried, disagrees as he has "discovered ample evidence of Sobran's special talents in Dr. Price's argumentative verve, elegant self-expression, and defenses of Catholic moral teachings. ...Perhaps it is hard to imagine a more worthy successor" to Joe Sobran. There is a common thread in this book, which is summed up in the apt subtitle, Heretical Essays on What You Can't Say or Even Think. Dr. Price points out that there is "an ever-expanding list of things you cannot say in this age of progressive 'tolerance,' and it begets the sort of self-censorship that has always been the norm in totalitarian regimes." As Canadian columnist Rory Leishman notes, "No one can refute Price's central thesis that our society is hovering on the brink of a totalitarian dictatorship where 'non-progressive opinion' -- i.e., any criticism of homosexuality, transgenderism, or a woman's 'right to choose' -- is criminalized as 'hate speech.'" Paul Tuns of The Interim notes that Harley Price "inveighs against every intellectually fashionable trend with acuity and wit, delivering devastating blows to the pantheon of social justice and human rights: abortion, sexual promiscuity, transgenderism, atheism, anti-capitalism." Allan Carlson of The Natural Family writes that Harley Price exhibits "a rare voice combining eminent learning, moral decency, and common sense." Author Robert Reilly observes that Harley Price is "a classically educated, erudite man who reacts to our current moral and cultural catastrophes with scorn, sarcasm, and humor -- essential ingredients to maintaining any semblance of sanity today." Author Brian Mitchell asserts, "Dr. Price has written a witty, erudite defense of commonsense enlightened by the wisdom of the ancients and the Gospel of Jesus Christ." Christopher Check of Catholic Answers adds that Price "looks at the whole range of human experience through the only lens worth using - the Incarnation. It is for this very reason his brilliant prose style, delightful wit, and profound learning are put in the service of something much greater than himself: the Truth and bringing his readers to it."
