He traversed over 3,400 miles without shoes, all the while carrying a sign that read "18 Vets a Day Commit Suicide!" and a petition for military personnel to receive mandatory counseling.

Tante persone oggi si definiscono attiviste: per i diritti umani, per gli animali, per il clima. Ma che cosa vuol dire davvero fare attivismo? Perché lo si fa? E per chi? Irene Facheris si è posta queste e altre domande che vengono per lo più date per scontate e ha sviscerato il tema anche attraverso un questionario a cui hanno risposto 1150 persone. Ne è nato questo libro in cui si indaga il senso profondo dell'attivismo per risolvere le faide interne e rischiarare ombre e ambiguità che fanno spesso perdere di vista il vero obiettivo, ovvero il bene collettivo.

Historia
When an idealistic activist objects to her siblings’ plan to ship their disabled sister off to a nursing home, she’s forced to choose between family and her sister’s freedom. Franke immediately objected when she heard the plan to put her sister, Teresa, into a nursing home. Teresa herself, who was born with Down syndrome, refused to even consider the idea. She wanted to stay with her father. But none of this mattered to the other siblings, who were acting as Teresa’s “guardians.”

Historia
In 2018, 34 people were shot at a high school in Parkland, Florida. Jaime Guttenberg, a 14-year-old, was the second to last victim. That she and so many of her fellow students were struck down in cold blood galvanized many to action, including Jaime's father, Fred, who has become an activist dedicated to passing common-sense gun-safety legislation. This book is not about gun safety or Parkland. Instead, it tells the story of Fred Guttenberg's journey since Jaime's death and how he has been able to get through the worst of times thanks to the kindness and compassion of others.

Historia
A small-town Florida teenager discovers punk rock through a loaned mix tape, and punk music and culture slowly takes over all aspects of his life. His new passion causes him to form a band, track down out-of-print records he loves and reissue them, open a record store, start a record distribution operation as a public service, mentor a host of young musicians, and befriend all manner of punk luminaries along the way. Slowly his life's pursuit pushes him to the point of personal ruination and, ultimately, redemption.

For most of his life, the comfort of the American suburbs was all Gret Glyer knew. It wasn’t until he abruptly quit his job and moved to Africa that he began questioning everything he had taken for granted. He soon learned that his private school upbringing stood in stark contrast to that of his new neighbors who lived on $1 per day. The shocking level of poverty he was exposed to inspired a brand-new model for charity that brings donors closer to the global poor.

“Sono un chirurgo. Una scelta fatta tanto tempo fa, da ragazzo. Non c’erano medici in famiglia, ma quel mestiere godeva di grande considerazione in casa mia. Fa il dutur l’è minga un laurà, diceva mia madre, l’è una missiùn. Un’esagerazione? Non so, ma il senso di quella frase me lo porto ancora dentro, forse mia madre era una inconsapevole ippocratica.” Una missione che parte da Sesto San Giovanni, la Stalingrado d’Italia con le grandi industrie, gli operai, il partito, il passato partigiano. In fondo, un buon posto per diventare grandi.

Sharpton also gives his personal take on more widely known individuals, revealing overlooked details, historical connections, and a perspective informed by years of working in the social justice movement.

È questa la risposta di don Antonio Coluccia dopo essere stato minacciato e appena prima di trovare la sua auto crivellata da una raffica di proiettili a Specchia, il comune vicino a Lecce dov'è nato.

Ben Barres was known for his groundbreaking scientific work and for his groundbreaking advocacy for gender equality in science. In this book, completed shortly before his death, Barres (born Barbara Barres in 1954) describes a life full of remarkable accomplishments. Barres recounts his early life and felt even as a very young child that he was assigned the wrong gender. After years of being acutely uncomfortable in his own skin, Barres transitioned from female to male. It was after transitioning that he realized how differently male and female scientists are treated.
