The social justice creed is shaping our every daily interaction. It influences how businesses structure themselves. It is altering how employers and employees interrelate. It has utterly transformed academia. It is remaking our politics with alarming swiftness. And there are consequences for those who transgress against the tenets of social justice and the self-appointed inquisitors who enforce its maxims. Noah Rothman deconstructs today's out-of-control social justice movement and the lasting damage it has had on American politics, culture, and education and our nation's future.

We live in a cultural moment where the definition of “woman” eludes the keenest of thinkers and brightest of scientists, where one’s biological sex and one’s gender are divorced, where the meaning of gender itself is a constantly moving target, and where girls and women, especially, struggle to know who they are. Where societal confusion has naturally ensued from this state of affairs, and Christians especially wonder how to think and respond to it, Katie J. McCoy offers a clear and helpful guide in her debut book, To Be a Woman.

Identity Economics bridges a critical gap in the social sciences. It brings identity and norms to economics. People’s notions of what is proper, and what is forbidden, and for whom, are fundamental to how hard they work, and how they learn, spend, and save. Thus people’s identity—their conception of who they are, and of who they choose to be—may be the most important factor affecting their economic lives.

Afua Hirsch is British. Her parents are British. She was raised, educated and socialised in Britain. Her partner, her daughter, her sister and the vast majority of her friends are British.

Blending history, memoir and individual experiences, Afua Hirsch reveals the identity crisis at the heart of Britain today.

They told us salvation came in one image—pristine, pale, and divine. But what if that image was a lie? Whitewashed Black Jesus is a bold and lyrical exploration of race, religion, and identity, peeling back centuries of manipulation to expose the subconscious programming that shapes our beliefs. This book centers on the idea that Jesus is the reflection of all humanity, not bound by one race, culture, or image. The core message: when we look into the mirror of faith, we should see Christ within ourselves—not as a figure imposed by history, but as a living truth that transcends color, ...
