No laughing matter: race joking and resistance in Brazilian social media

About No laughing matter: race joking and resistance in Brazilian social media:

Adopting a fresh and innovative perspective, this book examines the social phenomenon of construction and dissemination of racist hate speech on social media platforms fostered against upwardly mobile black women, and oftentimes disguised in disparagement humour. In this book, Dr Trindade explores the idea that online hate speech is not exempt from societal impacts as offenders claim and believe, and that, in fact, disparagement humour reveals the hidden facet of deep-seated colonial ideologies still present in Brazilian society, despite being hailed as a unique model of a post-racial society.

The author argues that these ideologies establish and naturalise superior social positions and symbolic privileges to whites while undermining and delegitimising black women’s upward social mobility. Thus, social media platforms enable the proponents of these beliefs not only to engage in the practice of online hate speech but also to attract a considerable number of like-minded people, creating a long-lasting echo chamber effect in cyberspace. This way, offenders manage to amplify the reach and reverberation of their hateful voices in the online environment in ways not commonly seen in offline social contexts.

Furthermore, given the book title, at first glance, one might jump to the conclusion that this book would be of interest solely to a Brazilian audience, but it is not a fair assumption. The growing phenomenon of online hate speech has been affecting a large number of people in many countries and raising concerns among a broad cohort of stakeholders (e.g., leaders of non-governmental organisations, social activists, policymakers, and human rights advocates, among others).

Within this context, the book contributes to shedding light on the main aspects and characteristics of online hate speech which show similarities across different social contexts and even among different social media platforms. Besides, it also points out ways forward to tackle this worrisome phenomenon.

Consequently, this thought-provoking book is very informative, clearly written and accessible to a wide audience both in academia and beyond, independently of their country of origin.

Finally, the book was also listed among the nominated titles for the 2021 edition of the British Sociological Association’s Philip Abrams Memorial Prize, which honours the best books in sociology.

My Demon, My Jesus by Blue Tapp

My Demon, My Jesus by Blue Tapp

In 1997 I killed myself.

God had another plan.

Four angels woke me from barbiturate oblivion urging me to “Wake up!” “Call for help!”

The angels’ voices pushed me forward as I dragged my body off the couch and crawled across the floor to my phone. The operator picked up and my mind collapsed into emptiness.

I left my body that night. My disembodied spirit floated weightlessly through hospital corridors. I watched from the ceiling as medics pounded on the chest of my body below me before my soul blasted back into it.

This began my tangled passage from brokenness, drug addiction, demonic oppression and death into healing and spiritual awakening. Today I am completely drug and depression free. In the two decades since my suicide attempt, Jesus has guided me into true healing from depression, and taught me to enjoy a deeply victorious life with Him as my companion.

In the summer of 2019, I read a book about meditation and decided to try it. I incorporated my Christian faith into the steps and used this new technique to seek the presence of God through silence. Meditative prayer has become part of my daily routine and has drawn me even more deeply into relationship with Jesus as I still my thoughts and rest in His beautiful presence.

Then I started having strange vision experiences in which my spirit was transported to a heavenly place full of God’s glory where I prayed for our world along with millions of other saints. The visions took me by surprise. I wasn’t seeking them. I had never even heard of anything similar happening to any other modern day Christian. I was disturbed and suspicious at first.

Over time, through months of testing and praying and searching, God slowly convinced me in the quiet, loving way He does, that I wasn’t going insane. The visions were really from Him. I learned that many other Biblically sound Christians also have visions today.

The visions continued. They were varied, included multiple locations and introductions to various characters from Biblical history and loved ones from my own life. Were the visions really happening or purely spiritual, like waking dreams? I cannot answer that. They are so vivid, often involving all my senses. They seem very real to me. But whatever the answer, one defining message clearly threads throughout all of them. God loves and cares deeply about us. He wants us to know Him and delights to teach us about His character. I was being called to join with the saints in praying for our world, for a great awakening that would draw all people to God.

One of God’s charges was that I write everything down, every vision in detail. As I did this I realized that there was a connection between the visions and my own life journey, from my early experiences of demonic oppression and suicide to eventual miraculous healing through the love of Christ. I began to understand that my visions about God’s love for us were also a message to others struggling with depression. My own story of God’s healing could be used to help others learn how to seek God’s healing presence through meditative prayer.

So I told it all… from a demonically oppressed disturbed child who also fell in love with Jesus and prayed to become a Christian at six years old…to a suicidally depressed young adult who overdosed on sleeping pills and was brought back from death in the hospital…to years addicted to prescription drugs…to miraculous healing, victorious life, and divine visions.

My healing was miraculous. But it was not instantaneous. It was a process of learning how to think in a healthy way, how to shift my thoughts and spirit life from defeat to victory. My prayer is that my journey will help others climb their way out of the trap of poisonous thought patterns and prescribed drug addictions. There are so many of us out there fighting this battle…

From Asteroids to Pandemics

About From Asteroids to Pandemics:

When I first came up with the idea to write this book one year ago, the world was going through its worst biological crisis in over 100 years. The second decade of this century was just getting started. Already a meteor had crisscrossed our atmosphere, wreaking havoc on the Russian city of Chelyabinsk on February 15th, 2013. It awakened the specter of our planet’s vulnerability, and the fear of been bombarded by an asteroid similar to that of the Tunguska asteroid, on June 30th, 1908.

In 2014, the winds of war began to blow as Russia overstepped its borders, annexing Crimea and taking over parts of Eastern Ukraine. Not a year has passed since I finished this book when on February 24th 2022, Vladimir Putin led the charge against Ukraine for full control of the strategic country.

This book is about, extreme spontaneous existntial riks. Be it a nuclear war, an asteroid crashing onto Earth or catastrophic anthropogenic disasters, we are living in unprecedented times. Is the first world war of the 21st Century about to unravel? Will humanity be once again witness to another anthropogenic cataclysmic event? We confront a pletora of unknown extreme existential risks. How can we face threats which have not existed, yet in a millisecond can turn our planet into a hellfire? This is what this book is all about. Finding the way to cope, and avoid breaking the trend of progress of our current civilization, for generations to come.

The Casebook of Sir Pendleton Stormsnout: A Mouseling Hollow Chronicles Graphic Novel by Robert Feol

The Casebook of Sir Pendleton Stormsnout: A Mouseling Hollow Chronicles Graphic Novel by Robert Feol

So reads the sign that hangs by the entrance of the palatial estate that lies on the outskirts of the sleepy hamlet known as Mouseling Hollow. For most mice, hanging such a sign outside their place of business would be sheer arrogance – a sure sign that they were either puffed-up braggarts intoxicated with their own boastfulness, or vainglorious charlatans seeking to separate the innocent from their hard-earned coin.

But Pendleton Stormsnout is most certainly not ‘most mice.’ Far from it…

For Pendleton Stormsnout, the sign that hangs outside his stately manor house is merely a simple declaration of fact – for he is both a legendary detective, and a lifelong seeker of adventure. Over the course of many seasons, the tales of his exploits have spread far and wide throughout the entirety of King Teegan’s Far Collective. The rumors say that Pendleton Stormsnout is a prodigy – a virtuoso – a ‘renaissance mouse’ in the truest sense of the phrase. They say that his powers of observation and deduction are unparalleled. That he can out-think the most distinguished scholars from the University at Old Town, out-fight the greatest champions from the Black Baron’s infamous Arena, and out-drink the thirstiest scalawags in Captain Redfur Tumblefox’s fabled Wrecking Crew. Some even whisper that he sets a finer dinner table than his neighbor, the beloved chef and innkeeper Robert Teague.

The Forbidden Letters, a true story by Hemu Aggarwal

About The Forbidden Letters, a true story by Hemu Aggarwal:

Rigid norms and rules in some cultures suffocate the lives of young people. The book highlights such regulations and their consequences and shows how one young couple subjected to such norms eventually breaks away from them and allows their children to grow unfettered by them.

The book includes 216 of the 500 century-old letters found in an attic. It tells the story of a young couple’s life, married when they were still teenagers, but lived apart intermittently for eight years. The letters describe their love for each other, the agony of separation, taboos of the times, and the hardships endured by women in a joint-family system. The book also describes the couple’s encounter with deadly diseases and the unwanted adoption of their child by another family. Crossing cultural, country, gender, and age boundaries, you take on a tumultuous 100-year journey from India to America, shedding the shackles of a joint family and allowing the next generation the freedom to chart their destinies.

This story of the book crosses the boundaries of CULTURES (Eastern to Western), COUNTRIES (India to America), and CENTURIES (20th to 21st). A hundred-year journey – 1922 to 2022.
