Ranging from the age of slavery to contemporary injustices, this groundbreaking history of race, gender and class inequality by the radical political activist Angela Davis offers an alternative view of female struggles for liberation. Tracing the intertwined histories of the abolitionist and women's suffrage movements, Davis examines the racism and class prejudice inherent in so much of white feminism, and in doing so brings to light new pioneering heroines, from field slaves to mill workers, who fought back and refused to accept the lives into which they were born.

In these newly collected essays, interviews, and speeches, world-renowned activist and scholar Angela Y. Davis illuminates the connections between struggles against state violence and oppression throughout history and around the world. Reflecting on the importance of Black feminism, intersectionality, and prison abolitionism for today's struggles, Davis discusses the legacies of previous liberation struggles - from the Black freedom movement to the South African antiapartheid movement.

Guyanese intellectual Walter Rodney emerged as one of the leading thinkers and activists of the anticolonial revolution. In 1980, shortly after founding of the Working People's Alliance in Guyana, the 38-year-old Rodney would be assassinated.

This meticulously researched analysis of the repercussions of European colonialism in Africa remains an indispensable study for grasping global inequality today.

"L'inferno su Roma", il secondo titolo della Trilogia di Nerone, racconta per la prima volta in un audiolibro i nove giorni del Grande incendio che distrusse la Città eterna. Roma, sabato 18 luglio 64 d.C. È sera tardi e dal soppalco di un magazzino sotto le arcate del Circo Massimo precipita una lucerna accesa. In un attimo le fiamme iniziano a divorare tutto ciò che toccano, come una belva feroce. È iniziata la fine di Roma... "La belva si è svegliata, è cresciuta, si nutre, si riproduce..."

Il giorno dopo il Grande incendio, Roma offre uno spettacolo di desolazione e distruzione. Tutto è irriconoscibile: gli edifici collassati sono diventati grandi ammassi di macerie, le strade e i vicoli ora sono degli avvallamenti, mentre nell’aria aleggia un acre odore di bruciato. Molti hanno perso tutto ciò che avevano e i campi per gli sfollati diventano la loro unica casa. Tutti guardano all’imperatore per ripartire, aspettano la sua guida per andare verso il futuro. Ma lui non è né un conquistatore di terre come Cesare, né un costruttore di imperi come Augusto.

Der 19. Januar 1919 stellt für die deutsche Geschichte und die Frauenbewegung ein zentrales Datum dar, das die Geschichtsschreibung indes beiläufig nennt, aber nicht weiter ausführt. Die Ereignisse im zeitlichen Umfeld dieses in jeder Hinsicht milden Wintertages waren weitaus dramatischer und erinnerungsträchtiger: Vier Tage zuvor waren Rosa Luxemburg und Karl Liebknecht ermordet worden, einen Monat später starb Kurt Eisner bei einem Attentat.
