Black Americans' resilience during centuries of racially motivated violence is beyond remarkable. But continuing to endure this harm allows for generations of trauma to fester and grow.

But when her cousin became the victim of a white supremacist's hateful rampage, her body and soul said, "no more."

On May 31, 2014, in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha, Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls attempted to stab their classmate to death. Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier’s violence was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they committed their crime under the influence of a figure born by the internet: the so-called “Slenderman”. Yet the even more urgent aspect of the story, that the children involved suffered from undiagnosed mental illnesses, often went overlooked in coverage of the case.

Sabato 21 luglio 2001, ultimo giorno del G8 di Genova, poco prima della mezzanotte, più di 300 operatori delle forze dell’ordine fanno irruzione nel complesso scolastico Diaz.

The Riders Come Out at Night is the culmination of over twenty-one years of fearless reporting. Ali Winston and Darwin BondGraham shine a light on the jackbooted and sadistic cops known as “The Riders,” and the lack of political will and misguided leadership that have conspired to stymie meaningful reform. The authors trace the history of Oakland since its inception through the lens of the city’s police department, through the Palmer Raids, McCarthyism, and the Civil Rights struggle, the Black Panthers and crack eras, to Oakland’s present-day revival.

Drawing on examples from around the world—from Uganda, Nigeria and South Africa to Saudi Arabia, the Americas and Europe—Gqola traces the construction and machinations of the female fear factory by exposing its lies, myths and seductions. She shows how seemingly disparate effects like driving bans, higher education rape, sexual harassment and femicide are all premised on the construction of people, mostly women, as female, and thereafter the use of fear as a tool of patriarchal subjugation and punishment.

In Gang Politics, Kristian Williams examines our society's understanding of social and political violence, what gets romanticized, misunderstood, or muddled.

Violence is part and parcel of human history and of human nature. It is one of our most distinctive traits, the one thing that all cultures and societies, across time, share in common. It has defined not only the ways in which individuals relate to each other, but also how collective entities and states have interacted with each other over the millennia. All societies are violent and all individuals have the capacity for violence. However, not all societies and not all individuals are equally violent, and nor does violence exist with the same intensity across cultures.

Estamos en uno de los países más peligrosos para ejercer el periodismo, no sólo por el acecho de los criminales, sino porque el poder corruptor de éstos ha convertido a policías y funcionarios del gobierno en sus aliados.

Why do domestic abuse victims stay with their partners? Why don't they just leave? What a different world it would be if the solution were that simple. The fear, endless battles with your mental health, and low self-esteem create a toxic whirlwind of emotions that's been gradually chipped away, destroying any realization that it’s not your fault. Whether you are a survivor of an abusive relationship or currently in a situation where you need help, we sing from the same hymn sheet, and we are connected by an invisible bubble of experience and understanding.

Narcissists are seemingly irresistibly charming people. They fill you with love and attention until you fall in love, and then they trap you in their darkness.

This book warns against narcissists by teaching you to recognize them, recognize their subtle tricks, and showing you how to break this vicious circle. Your boundaries are not negotiable. This is the right book that can help you take back your life.

Franz Ruppert konzentriert sich in diesem Buch auf einen Aspekt, der in den Trauma-Debatten oft zu kurz kommt: Es ist die Täter-Opfer-Dynamik, die zu einer Endlosschleife der seelischen Verletzungen führt. Eltern, die als Kinder nicht gewollt und nicht vor Gewalt geschützt wurden, werden meist selbst zu Tätern an ihren eigenen Kindern und reinszenieren unbewusst ihre eigenen Erlebnisse. Ganze Gesellschaften können auf diese Weise trauma-assoziiert sein und offen oder verdeckt Gewalt ausüben.

"Hvorfor går du ikke bare?" er den typiske reaktion, når ofre for psykisk partnervold fortæller, hvad de er udsat for. Trusler, stalking, seksuel og økonomisk vold er hverdag for disse mennesker, som langsomt får nedbrudt deres selvværd og selvtillid. Psykoterapeut Christina Copty beskriver her, hvad psykisk partnervold er, og hvad den gør ved offeret. Hun giver et indblik i, hvordan en krænker tænker, føler og agerer, og hun guider læseren igennem den labyrint af kontrollerende og manipulerende voldsmetoder, som krænkeren benytter sig af.
