Story
The American story is a story of progress. We’re taught that as time moves forward–and movements for civil rights come and go–America gets better, and better, and better. But the story isn’t that straightforward. Because often, on the heels of what looks like progress, comes backlash. People in power find ways to return things to the way they were before. These moments prove that progress isn’t linear or inevitable. Our standard narratives about American progress aren’t quite true. Backlash offers a new narrative.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Story
In a rarified world of scientific research, a revolution has been brewing. Its activists are not anarchists, but rather Nobel Laureates in physics and economics and pony-tailed graduates, mathematicians, and computer scientists from all over the world. They have formed an iconoclastic think-tank and their radical idea is to create a new science: complexity. They want to know how a primordial soup of simple molecules managed to turn itself into the first living cell--and what the origin of life some four billion years ago can tell us about the process of technological innovation today.

In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Story
At the height of World War II, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, was home to 75,000 residents, consuming more electricity than New York City. But to most of the world, the town did not exist. Thousands of civilians - many of them young women from small towns across the South - were recruited to this secret city, enticed by solid wages and the promise of war-ending work. Kept very much in the dark, few would ever guess the true nature of the tasks they performed each day in the hulking factories in the middle of the Appalachian Mountains.

This landmark book, first published in 1978, remains one of the most influential books in the Social Sciences, particularly Ethnic Studies and Postcolonialism. Said is best known for describing and critiquing "Orientalism", which he perceived as a constellation of false assumptions underlying Western attitudes toward the East. In Orientalism Said claimed a "subtle and persistent Eurocentric prejudice against Arabo-Islamic peoples and their culture."

All I can say is wow, what a book.
This such an outstanding book, maybe my favorite thus far. Simply because I knew absolutely nothing about this civilization. Never heard of them & if I had I must have forgotten. I loved this book because everything was new so I acquired new knowledge of a subject.

It is well written history of the “Zapotec civilization”. I enjoyed listening to it, and learned quite a bit from it.

New published material.
Archaeologists are still learning artifacts & trying to piece together a new understanding of these people. As always much of what we know is from the biased account of the Spanish conquistadors. With new information still being found in discoveries of this civilization new published materials will help give the Zapotecs a place in history that its deserves.

This was a great intro, quick.
I didn’t know much about the Zapotec Civilization, this was a great intro. Quick read. To me, it was very repetitious, circular and could have described any of the per-Columbian cultures.

A great book about the Zapotec Civilization.
I didn’t hear about this civilization before now. I found this book to be captivating. There are other more well-known Mesoamerican civilizations such as the Maya, Aztecs, and Incas but it seems as though the Zapotecs were more advanced than other civilizations of the time. Definitely, take the time to read about "The Cloud People."

Interesting Civilization.
A well written story of a group of people who disappeared shortly after the Conquistadores arrived. They were studied and remarked on for their abilities in writing and use of calendars as well as water control for their use. Very little is known about what happened to this large civilization.

Dark and interesting I didn't know of this.
The Zapotecs lived and flourished, and became a civilization of interest to the Conquistadors. As one of the largest Mesoamerican civilizations at the time, they helped to shape and form the world the Conquistadors come across upon their arrival. Rivaling the size and difficulty of their Mayan neighbors, the Zapotec were innovators and intellectuals who created a society that was markedly similar to the kingdoms and social structures.
