Katie Barnes
2023 · 2 reviews
Others: NeutralA richly reported and provocative look at the history of women’s sports and the controversy surrounding trans athletes by a leading LGBTQ+ sports journalist.For decades women have been playing competitive sports thanks in large part to the protective cover of Title IX. Since passage of that law, the number of women participating in sports and the level of competition in high school, college, and professionally, has risen dramatically. In Fair Play, award-winning journalist Katie Barnes traces the evolution of women’s sports as a pastime and a political arena, where equality and fairness have been fought over for generations. As attitudes toward gender have shifted to embrace more fluidity in recent decades, sex continues to be viewed as a static binary that is easily determined: male or female. It is on that very idea of static sex that we have built an entire sporting apparatus. Now that foundation is crumbling as a result of intense culture wars. Whether we are talking about bathrooms, gender affirming care for trans youth, or sports, the debate about who gets to decide gender is being litigated every day in every community. Many transgender and intersex athletes, from a South African runner, to a New Zealand power lifter, to a wrestler in Texas, to Connecticut track stars, have captured the attention of law and policy makers who want to decide how and when they compete.Women’s sports, since their inception, have been seen as a separate class of competition that requires protection and rules for entry. But what are those rules and who gets to make them? Fair Play looks at all sides of the issue and presents a reasoned and much-needed solution that seeks to preserve opportunities for all going forward.

Angela Y. Davis
2015 · 176 pages · 2 reviews
Others: Leaning positiveEn este amplio y brillante conjunto de ensayos, la reconocida y erudita activista Angela Davis expone las conexiones entre las luchas contra la violencia estatal y la opresión a lo largo de la historia y en todo el mundo, nos lleva de vuelta a la historia de los fundadores de la lucha revolucionaria y antirracista, pero también nos lleva hacia la posibilidad de la solidaridad y lucha interseccionales. Davis reúne en sus siempre lúcidas palabras nuestra historia y el futuro más prometedor de la libertad, haciendo hincapié en el papel que el pueblo puede y debe jugar. Teniendo en cuenta lo ocurrido en Ferguson recientemente y la continua agresión israelí al pueblo palestino, sus palabras resuenan hoy más que nunca. Davis discute los legados de las luchas de liberación anteriores, desde el movimiento de liberación negra hasta el movimiento contra el apartheid de Sudáfrica. Destaca las conexiones y analiza las luchas actuales contra el terrorismo estatal, desde Ferguson a Palestina. Frente a un mundo de injusticia indignante, nos desafía a imaginar y construir el movimiento por la liberación humana. Y, al hacerlo, nos recuerda que «la libertad es una batalla constante».

Jenny Odell
2019 · 256 pages · 3 reviews
Others: MixedNothing is harder to do these days than nothing. But in a world where our value is determined by our 24/7 data productivity . . . doing nothing may be our most important form of resistance. So argues artist and critic Jenny Odell in this field guide to doing nothing (at least as capitalism defines it). Odell sees our attention as the most precious—and overdrawn—resource we have. Once we can start paying a new kind of attention, she writes, we can undertake bolder forms of political action, reimagine humankind’s role in the environment, and arrive at more meaningful understandings of happiness and progress. Far from the simple anti-technology screed, or the back-to-nature meditation we read so often, How to do Nothing is an action plan for thinking outside of capitalist narratives of efficiency and techno-determinism. Provocative, timely, and utterly persuasive, this book is a four-course meal in the age of Soylent.

Natalie Angier
2006 · 304 pages · 1 review
Others: MixedAward-winning science journalist Angier takes us on a "guided twirligig through the scientific canon." She draws on conversations with hundreds of the world's top scientists, and her own work as a reporter for the New York Times, to create an entertaining guide to scientific literacy--a joyride through the major scientific disciplines: physics, chemistry, biology, geology, and astronomy. It's for anyone who wants to understand the great issues of our time--from stem cells and bird flu to evolution and global warming. It's also one of those rare books that reignites our childhood delight in figuring out how things work: we learn what's actually happening when our ice cream melts or our coffee gets cold, what our liver cells do when we eat a caramel, how the horse shows evolution at work, and that we really are all made of stardust.--From publisher description.
