Beyond The Green Zone - Dahr Jamail - Bog - Haymarket Books - Plusbog.dk

Beyond The Green Zone - Dahr Jamail - Bog - Haymarket Books - Plusbog.dk

“International journalism at its best.”—Stephen Kinzer “Every conflict spawns a handful of journalists who are willing to not only brave the war zone but to seek out the stories ignored by the press pack. The Iraq War has brought us Dahr Jamail. . . . I suspect Jamail’s account will prove an enduring document of what really happened during the chaotic years of occupation, and how it transformed ordinary Iraqis. . . . It tells everything.”— Mother Jones “From the earliest days of the war, Dahr Jamail has been a human conduit for the voices of Iraqis living under U.S. occupation. In the face of tremendous personal risk, his commitment to the crucial, principled task of bearing witness has never wavered, and this extraordinary book is the result.”—Naomi Klein Named by AlterNet as one of the top three progressive books of 2007 alongside Naomi Klein’s The Shock Doctrine and Jeremy Scahill’s Blackwater , Dahr Jamail’s Beyond the Green Zone goes past the polished desks of the corporate media and Washington politicians to tell first hand of the reality of life in Iraq. Dahr Jamail is an independent journalist who has covered the Middle East for more than four years. Jamail writes for the Inter Press Service and many other outlets and is a regular guest on Democracy Now! . He lives in California. Amy Goodman is a best-selling author and the host of Democracy Now! .

Reconsidering Reparations - Olfmi O. Tw - Bog - Haymarket Books - Plusbog.dk

Reconsidering Reparations - Olfmi O. Tw - Bog - Haymarket Books - Plusbog.dk

A pathbreaking book about world history, global justice, and the climate crisis—featuring a new preface by the author. “Coursing with moral urgency and propelled by brilliant prose, this is more than argument. It''s how we build the power needed to win.” —Naomi Klein A clear, new case for reparations as a “constructive,” future-oriented project that responds to the weight of history’s injustices with the equitable distribution of benefits and burdens. Centuries ago, Táíwò explains, European powers engineered the systems through which advantages and disadvantages still flow. Colonialism and transatlantic slavery forged schemes of injustice on an unprecedented scale, a world order he calls “global racial empire.” The project of justice must meet the same scope.Táíwò’s analysis not only discourages despair, it demands global resistance. Reconsidering Reparations suggests policies, goals, and organizing strategies. And it leaves readers with clear and powerful advice: act like an ancestor. Do what we can to shape the world we want our moral descendants to inherit, and have faith that they will continue the long struggle for justice. This understanding, Táíwò shows, has deep roots in the thought of Black political thinkers such as James Baldwin, Martin Luther King, Jr., Cedric Robinson, and Nkechi Taifa. Reconsidering Reparations is a book with profound implications for our views of justice, racism, the legacies of slavery and colonialism, and climate change policy.

Learning to Live in the Dark - Wen Stephenson - Bog - Haymarket Books - Plusbog.dk

Learning to Live in the Dark - Wen Stephenson - Bog - Haymarket Books - Plusbog.dk

In this series of personal, political, and literary essays, Nation writer and veteran activist Wen Stephenson traces his search for resolve and solidarity in the face of the advancing climate crisis and widening political abyss. After three decades of failed international efforts to avoid catastrophic climate change, progressive visions of a better world are now increasingly circumscribed by ecological and social breakdown. The geophysical forces unleashed by carbon-fueled global heating have converged with forms of political nihilism not seen since the rise of fascism in the 20th century. For many, despair has become the only honest response. Born of his own struggle, Learning to Live in the Dark is Stephenson’s argument for resolve in the face of an intellectual, moral, and spiritual abyss. In essays that reach back to the ideas of mid 20th-century thinkers Hannah Arendt, Vaçlav Havel, Simone Weil, Albert Camus, and Frantz Fanon—and back to Thoreau and Dostoevsky in the 19th century—Stephenson finds a constant among these iconic figures—a resolute embrace of universal human solidarity in dark times. Engaging with contemporary writers along the way—including William T. Vollmann, Bill McKibben, Naomi Klein, Andreas Malm, China Miéville, and Jane Hirshfield—Stephenson charts a personal and political journey from the horrors of Trump’s first presidency; through a renewed political engagement via the Green New Deal and his ongoing commitment to escalated nonviolent direct action; to a moral reckoning in the depths of the COVID pandemic and on up to the U.S.-sponsored genocide in Gaza. Throughout, Stephenson poses a question that resonates for many on the left today: If nothing short of revolution can salvage the possibility of a better world, and yet if a viable revolutionary-left politics is nowhere on the horizon, then what does a life of radical commitment look like in the shadow of catastrophes that will not wait? Learning to Live in the Dark answers not with fatalism or any cost-free hope, but with something sturdier: a resolve and solidarity as real as the dark itself.
