Historia
Building on feminist standpoint theory, and in conversation with the works of Sojourner Truth, bell hooks, Audre Lorde, and others, Ribeiro invites all of us to recognize where we stand, to imagine geographies different from those we've inherited, and to speak a more humane world into being.

Djamila's work is an essential read for anyone trying to understand the complexities of existing systems of oppression and how they have shaped our societies by universalizing truth. The concept of "the speaking place", which Ribeiro explains clearly and objectively, explains how our discourses are informed by the shared experiences of the groups that we belong to. She points out that "speaking place" is not about individual points of view but the social locus from where the discourse is created. Djamila intentionally uses Brazilian thinkers as references, while also mentioning works by European and American philosophers. The audio book is great, has a lovely pace and is easy to listen to. I finished it in one weekend. Highly recommended!

Historia
Most books about the history of humanity pursue either a historical or a biological approach, but Dr. Yuval Noah Harari breaks the mold with this highly original book. From examining the role evolving humans have played in the global ecosystem to charting the rise of empires, Sapiens integrates history and science to reconsider accepted narratives, connect past developments with contemporary concerns, and examine specific events within the context of larger ideas.

Loved how the narration fits the story. It has given me lots of insights and provoked lots of reflections. Perfect for anyone that wants to better understand how we got to where we are today.
