Book Description
A literary mixtape of transformative dialogues on justice with a cast of visionary rebel activists, organizers, artists, culture workers, thought leaders, and movement builders. Rebel Speak sounds the alarm for a global movement to end systemic injustice led by people doing the day-to-day rebel work in the prison capital of the world. Prison activist, artist, and scholar Bryonn Rolly Bain brings us transformative oral history ciphers, rooted in the tradition of call-and-response, to lay bare the struggle and sacrifice on the front lines of the fight to abolish the prison industrial complex. Rebel Speak investigates the motives that inspire and sustain movements for visionary change. Sparked by a life-changing interview with working-class heroes Dolores Huerta and Harry Belafonte, Bryonn invites us to join conversations with change-makers whose diverse critical perspectives and firsthand accounts expose the crisis of prisons and policing in our communities. Through dialogues with activists including Albert Woodfox, founder of the first Black Panther Party prison chapter, and Susan Burton, founder of Los Angeles's A New Way of Life Reentry Project; a conversation with a warden pushing beyond traditions at Sing Sing Correctional Facility; and an intimate exchange with his brother returning from prison, Bryonn reveals countless unseen spaces of the movement to end human caging. Sampling his provocative sessions with influential artists and culture workers, like Public Enemy leader Chuck D and radical feminist MC Maya Jupiter, Bryonn opens up and guides discussions about the power of art and activism to build solidarity across disciplines and demand justice. With raw insight and radical introspection, Rebel Speak embodies the growing call for "credible messengers" on prisons, policing, racial justice, abolitionist politics, and transformative organizing. Reimagining the role of the writer and scholar as a DJ and MC, Bryonn moves the crowd with this unforgettable mix of those working within the belly of the beast to change the world. This is a new century's sound of movement-building and Rebel Speak.

Engaging, amusing and illuminating, the book draws on Jane’s rich experience in the art of guided conversations and distils the wisdom acquired from her brilliant career in journalism.' —Hugh Mackay AO 'Have you ever tried slicing the top off a soft-boiled egg? The eggshell splinters and separates. It never looks as neat as you intended and the yolk starts to drip over the edge.

With a bit of reflection and practice, we can all elevate our conversations to a new realm: solving complex problems, producing inspiring ideas, adding value … and even preventing space-flight disasters.

Rebel Ideas
Author: Matthew Syed
Publisher: Flatiron Books
ISBN: 1250769906
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 173
Book Description
Ideas are everywhere, but those with the greatest problem-solving, business-transforming, and life-changing potential are often hard to identify. Even when we recognize good ideas, applying them to everyday obstacles—whether in the workplace, our homes, or our civic institutions—can seem insurmountable. According to Matthew Syed, it doesn't have to be this way. In Rebel Ideas, Syed argues that our brainpower as individuals isn't enough. To tackle problems from climate change to economic decline, we'll need to employ the power of "cognitive diversity." Drawing on psychology, genetics, and beyond, Syed uses real-world scenarios including the failings of the CIA before 9/11 and a communication disaster at the peak of Mount Everest to introduce us to the true power of thinking differently. Rebel Ideas will strengthen any kind of team, while including advice on how, as individuals, we can embrace the potential of an "outsider mind-set" as our greatest asset. Matthew Syed is the Sunday Times bestselling author of Black Box Thinking, Bounce, and The Greatest. He writes an award-winning newspaper column in The Times and is the host of the hugely successful BBC podcast Flintoff, Savage and the Ping Pong Guy.

It is from the lived experience and the fact of being black that More is meditated upon and this book, which is the extension of his work, brings to the forth the ways of thinking, knowing, and doing that that illuminate his philosophical project.

Category : Fiction

Pages : 252
Book Description
Crystal Truth be told I’ve always been a little jumpy but being kidnapped by aliens shoved my anxiety into high gear. They buy and sell us Earth girls like chattel. Stealing us from our dying planet and keeping us on lockdown until they’re ready to trade us away. When my fellow humans and I are rescued by the savage Draconian Warriors things get better, but we’re not free. So the other women leverage me into mating one of the Draconians in a grand scheme to take over the ship. I’m nothing if not a team player but why did it have to be the huge scarred one who’s as socially awkward as I am? Deceiving these brutal warriors seems like a really bad idea, the kind that could cause a small human like me to wind up dead, or worse, desperately in love with a massive, winged, and tailed alien. Drake I live for nothing more than starting a revolution among my Draconian brethren. I will set us free, at long last, from the misery of our Draconian Queens who have been driven insane by a parasite. I don’t have time or desire to rescue the human Queens, but my brother insists. When one of them lays claim to me, I’m suspicious. She panicked at the mere sight of me during the rescue and only hours later she selected me for her mate? I’m no fool. She’s a wily one, talking and squirming her way past my defenses. She’s soft, beautiful and scents like a goddess but I can’t let her ruin my people’s only chance at freedom. Somehow, I have to make her my Queen and set my people free.
