"All We Want is Equality" by Ryan Richard Thoreson Pdf

"In the wake of the Supreme Court's 2015 marriage equality ruling, lawmakers across the United States introduced dozens of bills that would permit moral or religious objectors to decline to serve LGBT people. In an least eight states, exemption bills have been enacted into law, creating a license to discriminate based on sexual orientation and gender identity. [This report], based on interviews with 30 people affected by discrimination and 82 advocates and service providers, documents how such laws license discrimination, discourage people from accessing services, and harm the dignity of LGBT people. It urges lawmakers at the state and federal level to strengthen nondiscrimination protections for LGBT people and repeal sweeping exemptions that put the rights and well-being of marginalized groups at risk."--Back cover.

We Want Equality by C. Douglas Love Pdf

Many people say that they want equality, but their actions don't support their claim. They make demands that can only be achieved by taking from others. This is no way to achieve equality.We Want EQUALITY, delves into the issues of inequality, discussing hard truths and explaining why human deficiencies cannot be corrected through legislation.In the book, Love starts with a history lesson, examining past horrors and showing why human nature is an impediment to true equality. Armed with logic, Love explains why our problem is cultural, not inequality. He demonstrates how the decline of traditional values has led to pervasive nihilism and feelings of entitlement.Next, Love deftly addresses four areas that encapsulate perceived inequality: Race, Income, Gender and Religion. The book answers important questions like: Why asking racists to fix racism gets you nowhere?Why reparations are better than affirmative action?Are the police hunting down black men?Why CEO salaries are not the problem?Why trying to 'fix' boys will backfire?Why the Left defends Islam?We Want EQUALITY discusses the strong and growing role the media, entertainment, big business and politicians play in the diminution of traditional values. Love then sites numerous examples of how cultural manipulation by the Left is hurting the country. Finally, he provides steps we can take to bring the country back from the brink.Love makes the argument for a union between liberals and conservatives against a common enemy, the Left. Liberals, he argues, should push back against the extreme arguments and behavior of the Left. Where they feel there are injustices that need to be addressed, he gives them suggestions to improve conditions without relying solely on government solutions.For conservatives, the book is an instructional manual on how to advance conservative principles without being labeled as insensitive or a racist. It also gives examples of how to respond to leftist ideas and what to do when they try to make every conversation about Trump.We Want Equality is the book we need for the current political climate. It is painfully honest and bound to invoke a visceral reaction in everyone who reads it. Readers will walk away with a renewed desire for clear and honest exchange of ideas. It is a call to the famed 'silent majority', alerting them that if they remain silent, they will no longer be the majority

The Time Has Come by Michael Kaufman Pdf

In the vein of Tim Wise’s White Like Me and Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In, The Time Has Come —by co-founder of the White Ribbon campaign Michael Kaufman — offers a plain-spoken and forthright look at why and how men must actively fight for gender equality. From founding the White Ribbon Campaign, the world’s largest organized effort of men working to end violence against women, in the early 1990s, to his appointment as the only male member of the G7 Gender Equality Advisory Council, Michael Kaufman has been a major figure in promoting social justice and women’s rights for decades. Now, in The Time Has Come, he issues a stirring call for men to mobilize in the movement for gender equality. Weaving together sociological data, personal experiences, and insights gleaned from decades of work with governments and NGOs around the globe, Kaufman explores topics ranging from domestic violence to parental leave, grappling with the ways in which a culture of toxic masculinity hurts women and men (and their children). Informative and provocative, The Time Has Come demonstrates how real gender equality creates advancements in both the workplace and the global economy, and urges men to become dedicated allies in dismantling the patriarchy.

Prelude to Bruise by Saeed Jones Pdf

Praise for Saeed Jones: "Jones is the kind of writer who's more than wanted: he's desperately needed."—FlavorWire "I get shout-happy when I read these poems; they are the gospel; they are the good news of the sustaining power of imagination, tenderness, and outright joy."—D. A. Powell "Prelude to Bruise works its tempestuous mojo just under the skin, wreaking a sweet havoc and rearranging the pulse. These poems don't dole out mercy. Mr. Jones undoubtedly dipped his pen in fierce before crafting these stanzas that rock like backslap. Straighten your skirt, children. The doors of the church are open."—Patricia Smith "It's a big book, a major book. A game-changer. Dazzling, brutal, real. Not just brilliant, caustic, and impassioned but a work that brings history—in which the personal and political are inter-constitutive—to the immediate moment. Jones takes a reader deep into lived experience, into a charged world divided among unstable yet entrenched lines: racial, gendered, political, sexual, familial. Here we absorb each quiet resistance, each whoop of joy, a knowledge of violence and of desire, an unbearable ache/loss/yearning. This is not just a "new voice" but a new song, a new way of singing, a new music made of deep grief's wildfire, of burning intelligence and of all-feeling heart, scorched and seared. In a poem, Jones says, "Boy's body is a song only he can hear." But now that we have this book, we can all hear it. And it's unforgettable."—Brenda Shaughnessy "Inside each hunger, each desire, speaks the voice of a boy that admits "I've always wanted to be dangerous." This is not a threat but a promise to break away from the affliction of silence, to make audible the stories that trouble the dimensions of masculinity and discomfort the polite conversations about race. With impressive grace, Saeed Jones situates the queer black body at the center, where his visibility and vulnerability nurture emotional strength and the irrepressible energy to claim those spaces that were once denied or withheld from him. Prelude to a Bruise is a daring debut."—Rigoberto González From "Sleeping Arrangement": Take your hand out from under my pillow. And take your sheets with you. Drag them under. Make pretend ghosts. I can't have you rattling the bed springs so keep still, keep quiet. Mistake yourself for shadows. Learn the lullabies of lint. Saeed Jones works as the editor of BuzzfeedLGBT.

We Want Equality by C. Douglas Love Pdf

There is an extreme cultural movement working to change the fabric of this country. It is loud, obnoxious, unforgiving and often violent. It speaks of love, diversity and inclusion but that is a façade. In reality, its sole purpose is to divide and conquer. Anyone who disagrees is the enemy and must be quelled. This movement is driven on hate, a false sense of moral superiority and a healthy dose of unearned entitlement. The shocking part is; it's not new.This leftist movement has existed in some form for nearly 100 years. It lay dormant for decades, building a base on the fringes. It has been steadily on the rise since the 1960s. It picked up momentum in the 1980s as the country moved away from traditional norms and adopted a more nihilistic, secular and selfish approach to life.Today, with the advent of smart phones, reality TV and instant information, the culture has taken a nosedive. People are more depressed, angrier and have fewer personal interactions. They have less drive but a greater desire to be appreciated. They know far less than previous generations but have greater self-esteem. Add to this our stark divide caused by the current political climate. Where do we go from here?This book sounds the alarm of the current cultural crisis we face. The goal is to get people to wake up and see all that's wrong with our current culture and join others in reversing the dark trend.

What Works by Iris Bohnet Pdf

Gender equality is a moral and a business imperative. But unconscious bias holds us back and de-biasing minds has proven to be difficult and expensive. Behavioral design offers a new solution. Iris Bohnet shows that by de-biasing organizations instead of individuals, we can make smart changes that have big impacts—often at low cost and high speed.

Disclosing a Portion: the inner mechanics of the Torah by Michael Laitman Pdf

The Pentateuch, or The Five Books of Moses, is a fascinating odyssey of a nation in the making. Yet, underneath the tales that reveal human nature at its zenith and at its nadir lies an ocean of wisdom that, if uncovered, can alter reality itself. Dr. Michael Laitman’s Disclosing a Portion: the inner mechanics of the Torah uncovers some of that wisdom in a manner none other has done before. Throughout the year, each week observant Jews read a different portion of the Pentateuch (which they refer to as the “Torah”). Each portion deals with a different topic, and is titled according to the first word, or words, in the portion. As you read through the portions, you will discover that each of the protagonists in the stories we’ve known for so long is not a myth, but a living force within. These forces direct and determine your path in life, and when you come to know them, you come to know your true self. Take your time to delve into the text, and portion by portion you will find new meanings that will enrich and empower you as you become the happy, confident person that you dream of being.
