El académico y activista Paul Ortiz cuestiona la noción de progreso hacia Occidente exaltada por formulaciones ampliamente enseñadas como “destino manifiesto” y “democracia jacksoniana”, y muestra cómo colocar las voces afroamericanas, latinas e indígenas al frente y al centro sin pedir disculpas transforma la historia de Estados Unidos en una de la clase trabajadora organizándose contra el imperialismo. Basándose en ricas narrativas y documentos de fuentes primarias, Ortiz vincula la segregación racial en el suroeste y el ascenso y caída violenta de una poderosa tradición de organización laboral mexicana en el siglo XX, con el 1 de mayo de 2006, conocido como el Día Internacional de los Trabajadores, cuando los inmigrantes Los trabajadores—chicanas, afrocubanos e inmigrantes de todos los continentes del mundo—se unieron en resistencia en el primer “Día Sin Inmigrantes”. Mientras los activistas afroamericanos por los derechos civiles luchaban contra las leyes Jim Crow y los organizadores sindicales mexicanos luchaban contra las asfixiantes garras del capitalismo, los periódicos negros y en español, los abolicionistas y los revolucionarios latinoamericanos se unieron en torno a movimientos construidos entre personas de Estados Unidos y Centroamérica. y el Caribe.

Aprovechando sus habilidades como psicóloga clínica, la autora intenta proporcionar el funcionamiento interno de la familia como un trasfondo para analizar a Donald,[12] pero ha evitado un diagnóstico directo. En la primera parte: La crueldad es el punto, el autor describe el personaje de Fred Trump Sr., el patriarca de la familia, e intenta dilucidar cómo el trato que dio a sus hijos ha tenido un impacto duradero en ellos. Basándose en recuerdos de miembros de la familia, Mary diagnostica a Fred Sr. como un sociópata de alto funcionamiento que buscaba utilizar a quienes lo rodeaban para su beneficio.[16] Donald, mientras observaba cómo criticaban a su hermano Fred Jr. por sus deficiencias percibidas, adoptaba su naturaleza para evitar muestras de tristeza, debilidad o bondad. Mary afirma que la influencia de Fred aseguró que Donald tuviera un acceso limitado a su gama de emociones. Su madre, Mary, es descrita como discapacitada física y mentalmente durante los años de formación de los niños como resultado de una enfermedad. Más adelante en su vida, le revelaría a Mary que se sintió aliviada cuando enviaron a Donald a la escuela militar, ya que se había vuelto beligerante y desobediente con ella. En la segunda parte: El lado equivocado de las vías, el autor narra los inicios de la carrera de Donald Trump. Ella observa que, dado que Fred nunca alcanzó la fama que considera merecedora de su visión para los negocios, estaba feliz de permitir que su hijo asumiera el papel público mientras él se ocupaba del trabajo real apoyándose en gran medida en conexiones políticas y de otro tipo.[19] Mientras tanto, Fred Jr. ve que después de haber sido culpado injustamente por el colapso de grandes proyectos de vivienda, su hermano Donald lo margina y, por lo tanto, decide dejar el negocio familiar para seguir una carrera como piloto comercial. La constante denigración de la familia hacia la profesión que había elegido contribuyó a su lucha contra el alcoholismo y otros problemas, lo que llevó al fracaso de su carrera en la aviación y de su matrimonio. Finalmente murió debido a un ataque cardíaco en un hospital lejos de su familia, mientras sus padres esperaban en casa y su hermano Donald estaba en un cine. En la tercera parte: Humo y espejos, el autor detalla cómo, a medida que la influencia de Fred Sr. disminuyó, Donald Trump lucha por operar su negocio sin el conocimiento y las conexiones que le brinda su padre. Mary describe a Donald como un hombre de negocios inepto que fue capaz de mantener las apariencias sólo gracias a la falta de voluntad de sus asociados para derribar la fachada, ya que ven su notoriedad como una ventaja. En un momento, Donald tiene que negociar con sus acreedores una asignación mensual de 450.000 dólares. Mary también se centra en cómo la familia se volvió contra ella después de la muerte de Fred Sr., incluido el corte del seguro médico de su hermano y de ella, lo que resultó en condiciones precarias para el hijo de su hermano. Mary decide llegar a un acuerdo permitiendo que el resto de la familia compre su sociedad de una corporación familiar en lo que ahora entiende que es una subvaluación significativa. Con el tiempo descubrió el verdadero valor de la riqueza de su familia actuando como fuente anónima en la investigación del New York Times ganadora del Pulitzer. En la cuarta parte: La peor inversión jamás realizada, la autora ofrece su visión del período en el que Donald Trump organizó una exitosa campaña para la presidencia de Estados Unidos. Mary nuevamente recurre a su formación como psicóloga para afirmar que su abuelo Fred Sr. inició una línea directa con más actores de poder, todo lo cual permitió que los peores instintos de Donald sirvieran a sus respectivas necesidades. Afirma que, debido a que se ha impedido por la fuerza que la capacidad psicológica de Trump se desarrolle plenamente desde su corta edad, sigue siendo extremadamente susceptible a la manipulación por parte de actores locales y extranjeros más capaces. *De Wikipedia*\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32671414911081,"sku":"9781982141462","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0244\/3467\/1721\/products\/too-much-and-never-enough-how-my-family-created-the-worlds-most-dangerous-man-576429.jpg?v=1696984681"},{"product_id":"angry-white-men-american-masculinity-at-the-end-of-an-era","title":"Hombres blancos enojados | La masculinidad estadounidense al final de una era","description":"\u003cp\u003e El sociólogo Michael Kimmel, uno de los principales escritores sobre los hombres y la masculinidad, ha pasado cientos de horas en compañía de los enojados hombres blancos de Estados Unidos (desde supremacistas blancos hasta activistas por los derechos de los hombres y jóvenes estudiantes) en busca de un diagnóstico integral de sus miedos. , ansiedades y rabia.

But whereas many women have been recognized for their writing on gender politics, the female voice has been all but locked out of the public discourse on race. Killing Rage speaks to this imbalance. These twenty-three essays, most of them new works, are written from a black and feminist perspective, and they tackle the bitter difficulties of racism by envisioning a world without it. Hooks defiantly creates positive plans for the future rather than dwell in theories of a crisis beyond repair. The essays here address a spectrum of topics to do with race and racism in the United States: psychological trauma among African Americans; friendship between black women and white women; anti-Semitism and racism; internalized racism in the movies and media. Hooks presents a challenge to the patriarchal family model, explaining how it perpetuates sexism and oppression in black life. She calls out the tendency of much of mainstream America to conflate \"black rage\" with murderous, pathological impulses, rather than seeing it as a positive state of being. And in the title essay she writes about the \"killing rage\" - the fierce anger of black people stung by repeated instances of everyday racism - finding in that rage a healing source of love and strength, and a catalyst for productive change. Her analysis is rigorous and her language unsparingly critical, but Hooks writes with a common touch that has made her a favorite of readers far from universities.Bell Hooks's work contains multitudes; she is a feminist who includes and celebrates men, a critic of racism who is not separatist or Afrocentric, an academic who cares about popular culture.","brand":"Holt Paperbacks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42850650488937,"sku":"9780805050271","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0244\/3467\/1721\/files\/killing-rage-ending-racism-4866673.jpg?v=1769489766"},{"product_id":"hitlers-american-model-the-united-states-and-the-making-of-nazi-race-law","title":"Hitler's American Model: The United States and the Making of Nazi Race Law","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow American race law provided a blueprint for Nazi Germany\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNazism triumphed in Germany during the high era of Jim Crow laws in the United States.

Gerda Lerner argues that male dominance over women is not \"natural\" or biological, but the product of an historical development begun in the second millennium B.C. in the Ancient Near East. As patriarchy as a system of organizing society was established historically, she contends, it can also be ended by the historical process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFocusing on the contradiction between women's central role in creating society and their marginality in the meaning-giving process of definition and interpretation, Lerner explores such fascinating questions as: What can account for women's exclusion from the historical process? What could explain the long delay--more than 3,500 years--in women's coming to consciousness of their own subordinate position? She goes back to the cultures of the earliest known civilizations--those of the ancient Near East--to discover the origins of the major gender metaphors of Western civilization. Using historical, literary, archaeological, and artistic evidence, she then traces the development of these ideas, symbols, and metaphors and their incorporation into Western civilization as the basis of patriarchal gender relations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42878927863913,"sku":"9780195051858","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0244\/3467\/1721\/files\/creation-of-patriarchy-revised-7148791.jpg?v=1770048966"},{"product_id":"how-we-win-the-civil-war-securing-a-multiracial-democracy-and-ending-white-supremacy-for-good","title":"How We Win the Civil War: Securing a Multiracial Democracy and Ending White Supremacy for Good","description":"\u003cb\u003eThe bestselling author pulls no punches on what America needs to defeat white supremacy\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNational political commentator Steve Phillips's \"politically charged and thoughtfully reasoned\" (\u003cem\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/em\u003e) \u003cem\u003eHow We Win the Civil War\u003c\/em\u003e helped chart the way forward for progressives and people of color, arguing that Democrats must recognize the nature of the fight we're in, which is a contest between democracy and white supremacy left unresolved after the Civil War.
