Ragged Trousered Philanthropists

This classic Wordsworth book portrays the impoverished underclass of Edwardian England, exploited by corrupt employers and authorities. Through emblematic characters, it advocates for socialist politics as the only hope for a humane life. Includes a foreword by Tony Benn. A timeless work with a relevant political message that has been honored by the Trade Union movement and political thinkers.

I was touched to write a foreword to this courageous book. As Angela Davis said, "I'm no longer accepting the things I cannot change, I'm changing the things I cannot accept". It's with this boldness that Luke and Ryan have used their experience of domestic abuse to help others.      fuente

Beyond A Boundary

Calificación de Goodreads
Experience the intersection of sports, politics, and psychology in colonial West Indies through the lens of cricket in Beyond A Boundary by C. L. R. James. Join the "black Plato" in his passionate celebration of the game while exploring serious questions about race, class, politics, and colonial oppression. This classic memoir and sociocultural commentary is a prophetic statement on race and sport in society that is as relevant today as it was when first published over 50 years ago.

Calificación de Goodreads
A powerful, urgent and timely polemic on why women still need equality, and how we get there It is the greatest human rights abuse on the planet. It blights first and developing worlds, rich and poor women's health, wealth, education, representation, opportunity and security everywhere. It is no exaggeration to describe it as an 'apartheid', but no...

Vamos a cazar un oso
Michael Rosen - 2003-01-01 (publicado por primera vez en 1989)
Calificación de Goodreads
"We're going on a bear hunt. / We're going to catch a big one. / What a beautiful day! / We're not scared." So begins Michael Rosen's award-winning read-aloud romp We're Going on a Bear Hunt. In this lovely boxed gift edition illustrated by Helen Oxenbury, a small paperback version of the book is packaged with the softest, most fabulous little brown bear we've ever seen. Reenacting "Splash splosh! Splash splosh! Splash splosh!" across the river is much more fun with an actual bear on hand. (Ages 4 and older)
