Every Woman Should Read

Revisado: 11-02-21

Every woman should read this book and appreciate what has been done so far, acknowledge what is significantly lacking because it will surprise you and you may not know unless you work in the medical field and even then, still be surprised, and light a fire in the drive to push for more advocacy for female based studies not for separation or segregation of the sexes but for the simple understanding that female and male physiology is different and thus deserve equal expertise. Thank you to the author for her voice in our behalf and hers!

Blue Pill or Red Pill.......do you want to wakeup

Revisado: 10-28-21

If you want to understand our social structure to the core, this book will not disappoint. This book highlights the stain on our patriotism that makes it difficult for those of us who can't blindly devote ourselves to the statement of "The Greatest Nation in the World" without acknowledgement and demand of drastic change to the areas of deficit in which we all contribute daily, we need only to lift our heads, look around, and push up stream together. The author puts it all there for us to see, however, we must accept we are a species of community and the longer we deny that, the greater we all suffer, regardless of your place in the heirarchy.

Great & Reflective WORKBOOK

Revisado: 07-31-20

This book was what I need to work on weeding out racism in my everyday life. The part that aggrivated me was that it should have journal,workbook,activity or something of that nature in the title because if I would have known that, I would have purchased the book in hand to do the reflection questions.....which there are 5-10 each chapter and that was the essence of the book. I will print them out now and do them but I wish I would have know first hand so I could have participated more functionally during the chapters to get the over experience and message in a whole.
I do want to say it was a tough read to hear. I had to put it down a few times due to my white privaledged frustration which I recognize, but the reflection questions are the essence of the work and what has been lacking from other BLM reads.
Thank you for you work and messages!

must read

Revisado: 07-08-20

If your white, you need to read this. You may find that everything you thought you were doing right to not be racist may inadvertently be making things worse. You may also learn how racism is not only harmful in every way to those it apposes but leaves everyone in a state of disadvantage in different ways.

LIVE LIVE LIVE!!!

Revisado: 05-20-19

This was always one of my favourite films with Roseline Russel which I went into the book knowing it was quite the same and I appreciate d the intro to warm me that in the book she is less of a heroic figure and more of an eccentric human, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. What a fascinating human liberal! Will always have a soft spot in my heart for Auntie Mame!

A real horror story

Revisado: 11-11-18

This is a story of nightmares and even though you listen in a constant state of anxiety and hold back on your panic as you really let your mind inhale the fear and warning signs, like tails of war and other basic human lessons, it is absolutely vital that our society understand the vulnerability we possess. Humanity as a whole grew as a species together and only together can we remain through natures challenges. This is a story of how we didn’t work together and how we paid for it dearly but also how we got really lucky to be here today. Be warned, time and again, like the lessons of War of the Worlds, our common enemy may only be microscopic and it may only be waiting for that perfect distracted, moment of vulnerability to strike but it is most certain it will and our luck may have run out. All of our small problems between each other that seem so large will not compare to the day your neighbors turn you away with panic and fear because helping you may be a death sentence for even their closest of kin.

In all reality, great book! A true horror story in my opinion and a medical nerds must read. Little repetitive at some points where it feels like it drags but once your reminded what your reading it sucks you back it with reality.

Book good, recording is terrible!

Revisado: 01-15-16

If i didnt pay for this i wouldnt mind much but since i did i was irritated by the quality of the recording. I know it's probably older but it get loud and soft and there are some lengthy pauses.
Book and reader are very good but the recording needs fixing.

Really tough content to read....

Revisado: 05-13-15

Though it was tough, glad i read it and got a clear idea what took place for POWs in Japanese camps but the rough parts gave me a nightmare or two. What an amazing group of human beings. Good example in my eyes why we won the war!
