Rock god. Justice fighter. Rabble-rouser. Ivy Leaguer. An American renegade and fearless truth teller. Rage Against the Machine’s guitar virtuoso, Tom Morello, is many things; but perhaps, he himself, sums it up best: a one-man revolution. For the first time ever, hear Morello fuse the deeply personal with the political in a rapturous, badass, one-man show that skillfully balances soul-bearing stories with spellbinding guitar fury: Speaking Truth to Power Through Stories and Song by Tom Morello.

Sophia Chang is a badass of the music industry. As the daughter of Korean immigrants in predominantly white suburban Vancouver, she grew up shunning the “model minority” myth. Armed with a fierce sense of independence, she moved to New York City and infiltrated the world of hip-hop, yet remained mostly in the shadows of the artists she supported. With her debut memoir, Sophia Chang is finally ready to grab the mic for herself.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 496
Born from Bukowski's columns, the LA underground press of the 1960s, Bukowski defined his early alter ego, Hank Chinaski, as a self-described dirty old man who eyes his defeatist attitude about himself with his clarity to see humor and holiness in others. Addictive and instructive listening, Bukowski delivers the humanity and intelligence of all the unseen. Filled with his usual obsessions - sex, booze, gambling - Notes features Bukowski's offbeat insights into politics and literature, and his tortured, violent relationships.

Like my Grandfather returned from the grave.
Reviewed: 07-09-21
This work is a nostalgic reminder of a time of misogyny that dominated damn near every aspect of society for both men and women and how society was complacent in looking the other way.
I feel not only the reminder of a such a hard upbringing in the hands of men similar as the protagonist/author but, also of a victory of walking through the eye of a needle of such a vile period of time and patriarchy.
We're by far not out of the henhouse yet but, excuse me while I schedule an appointment with my therapist.

An instant best seller, On Fire shows Klein at her most prophetic and philosophical, investigating the climate crisis not only as a profound political challenge but also as a spiritual and imaginative one. Delving into topics ranging from the clash between ecological time and our culture of “perpetual now,” to the soaring history of humans changing and evolving rapidly in the face of grave threats, to rising white supremacy and fortressed borders as a form of “climate barbarism,” this is a rousing call to action for a planet on the brink.

I totally recommend this amazing book!!!
I'm a house painter who works with his hands all day, face constantly staring at one surface or another. listening to this Audio book while spending the week painting a fire station i constantly had tears and snot running out of my face.
Tears of hope, of sorrow, anger, and self deprecating blame. Naomi's books always touch me, and this one especially gives me more than the motivation I needed to become the climate warrior that our earth and children have been waiting for. My gloves are off and I'm ready to start swinging into the ignorance!
