A revelatory history of how postcolonial African Independence movements were systematically undermined by one nation above all: the US.

In 1958 in Accra, Ghana, the Hands Off Africa conference brought together the leading figures of African independence in a public show of political strength and purpose. Led by the charismatic Kwame Nkrumah, who had just won Ghana's independence, his determined call for Pan-Africanism was heeded by young, idealistic leaders across the continent and by African Americans seeking civil rights at home. Yet, a moment that signified a new era of African freedom simultaneously marked a new era of foreign intervention and control.

In White Malice, Susan Williams unearths the covert operations pursued by the CIA from Ghana to the Congo to the UN in an effort to frustrate and deny Africa's new generation of nationalist leaders. This dramatically upends the conventional belief that the African nations failed to establish effective, democratic states on their own accord. As the old European powers moved out, the US moved in.

Drawing on original research, recently declassified documents, and told through an engaging narrative, Williams introduces readers to idealistic African leaders and to the secret agents, ambassadors, and even presidents who deliberately worked against them, forever altering the future of a continent.

In the 1940s, the brightest minds of the United States and Nazi Germany raced to West Africa with a single mission: to secure the essential ingredient of the atomic bomb -- and to make sure nobody saw them doing it

Albert Einstein told President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1939 that the world's only supply of uniquely high-quality uranium ore -- the key ingredient for bomb -- could be found in the Katanga province of the Belgian Congo at the Shinkolobwe Mine. Once the US Manhattan Project was committed to developing atomic weapons for the war against Germany and Japan, the rush to procure this uranium became a top priority -- one deemed vital to the welfare of the United States.

But covertly exporting it from Africa posed a major risk: the ore had to travel via a spy-infested Angolan port or 1,500 miles by rail through the Congo, and then be shipped by boats or Pan Am Clippers to safety in the United States. It could be poached or smuggled at any point on the orders of Nazi Germany. To combat that threat, the US Office of Strategic Services sent in a team of intrepid spies, led by Wilbur Owings Dock Hogue, to be America's eyes and ears and to protect its most precious and destructive cargo.

Packed with newly discovered details from American and British archives, this is the gripping, true story of the unsung heroism of a handful of good men -- and one woman -- in colonial Africa who risked their lives in the fight against fascism and helped deny Hitler his atomic bomb.

One of the outstanding mysteries of the twentieth century, and one with huge political resonance, is the death of Dag Hammarskjöld and his UN team in a plane crash in central Africa in 1961. Just minutes after midnight, his aircraft plunged into thick forest in the British colony of Northern Rhodesia (Zambia), abruptly ending his mission to bring peace to the Congo. Across the world, many suspected sabotage, accusing the multi-nationals and the governments of Britain, Belgium, the USA and South Africa of involvement in the disaster. These suspicions have never gone away. British High Commissioner Lord Alport was waiting at the airport when the aircraft crashed nearby. He bizarrely insisted to the airport management that Hammarskjöld had flown elsewhere -- even though his aircraft was reported overhead. This postponed a search for so long that the wreckage of the plane was not found for fifteen hours. White mercenaries were at the airport that night too, including the South African pilot Jerry Puren, whose bombing of Congolese villages led, in his own words, to 'flaming huts . . . destruction and death'. These soldiers of fortune were backed by Sir Roy Welensky, Prime Minister of the Rhodesian Federation, who was ready to stop at nothing to maintain white rule and thought the United Nations was synonymous with the Nazis. The Rhodesian government conducted an official inquiry, which blamed pilot error. But as this book will show, it was a massive cover-up that suppressed and dismissed a mass of crucial evidence, especially that of African eye-witnesses. A subsequent UN inquiry was unable to rule out foul play - but had no access to the evidence to show how and why. Now, for the first time, this story can be told. Who Killed Hammarskjöld follows the author on her intriguing and often frightening journey of research to Zambia, South Africa, the USA, Sweden, Norway, Britain, France and Belgium, where she unearthed a mass of new and hitherto secret documentary and photographic evidence.

Your ordeal with the narcissist is finally finished? You longed for it to be over and you know you should be relieved but instead you feel even more hurt, lost, angry and betrayed? Breaking up with a narcissist for the last time is never easy and partners can expect to feel a tremendous amount of anger, grief and see-sawing emotions. It's not easy when you realize that your entire relationship was built on a lie and that the man you loved wasn't genuine. While you are left picking up the pieces he has generally sailed straight on to a new life and a new woman, without once looking back. After the final final breakup with a narcissistic you will have times where you may feel so bruised and shattered that it seems like you're merely existing in the world, rather than participating in it. At first you may experience a brief period of freedom and release but like giving birth after a long pregnancy, there will come a point where you realize that the real work has only just now begun. Whereas before you were clinging on for dear life and survival, now you need to find ways to heal and recover, so that you can move on. This will include having to undo some less than healthy relationship patterns that you may have been carrying around with you for your entire life. Titanium is the third and final book in this true story series. It is written for the women who come out of these types of relationship feeling so traumatized that they don't know where to even begin to pick up the pieces. Some even find themselves experiencing a type of PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). This book is not about blaming or shaming, it is about understanding both sides of the dynamic so that you may find peace and happiness and forgiveness. It is written to give faith that no matter how hard it has been, there is a way through and out the other side of emotional abuse. 5* Reader Review: A wonderful honest and genuine account of how to survive and recover from narcissistic abuse. I found it enlightening to read, as I struggled to deal with the aftermath of my own experiences. It gave me the strength to see some light at the end of the tunnel of abuse, and to concentrate on healing myself, move forward and to recognise the signs in order to prevent the same thing happening again.

Amidst the vast array of literature on the First Amendment, it is rare to hear a fresh voice speak about the First Amendment, but in Truth, Autonomy, and Speech, Susan H. Williams presents a strikingly original interpretation and defense of the First Amendment, written from a feminist perspective. Drawing on work from several disciplines--including law, political theory, philosophy, and anthropology--the book develops alternative accounts of truth and autonomy as the foundations for freedom of expression. Building on feminist understandings of self and the social world, Williams argues that both truth and autonomy are fundamentally relational.
With great clarity and insight, Williams demonstrates that speech is the means by which we create rather than discover truth and the primary mechanism through which we tell the stories that constitute our autonomy. She examines several controversial issues in the law of free speech--including campaign finance reform, the public forum doctrine, and symbolic speech--and concludes that the legal doctrine through which we interpret and apply the First Amendment should be organized to protect speech that serves the purposes of truth and autonomy.

The period from the 1820s to 1890 was one of invention, new trends, and growth in the American food culture. Inventions included the potato chip and Coca-Cola. Patents were taken out for the tin can, canning jars, and condensed milk. Vegetarianism was promulgated. Factories and mills such as Pillsbury came into being, as did Quaker Oats and other icons of American food. This volume describes the beginnings of many familiar mainstays of our daily life and consumer culture. It chronicles the shift from farming to agribusiness. Cookbooks proliferated and readers will trace the modernization of cooking, from the hearth to the stove, and the availability of refrigeration. Regional foodways are covered, as are how various classes ate at home or away. A final chapter covers the diet fads, which were similar to those being touted today.

Are you tired of lies, broken promises, cheating and emotional game playing? Do you desperately want out of your relationship but can't seem to break away? Have you changed from the confident, happy woman you were before you met him to depressed, anxious and insecure? That's my story too. That's life with a narcissist. We live in a world of narcissism but how do you know if your partner really has narcissistic personality disorder, or whether you should just give it more time and patience? In Planet Ben the reader is taken on my own journey as I enter Ben's narcissistic world, thinking I have met the man of my dreams, only to find out that I am caught up in a fairytale nightmare with someone who cares nothing about me at all. This book contains my journal entries written over that first year and shows the methods a narcissist uses to set the game up - the romantic beginning (idealization), the game shifting (devaluations) and the constant mind games, raging and silent treatments. Read my personal struggle to understand what I am dealing with, as my ideal love changes from Mr Nice to Mr Nasty. You will also witness my denial of how bad things really are as I come up with endless excuses for his behavior. Along with insights into the narcissistic personality, Planet Ben provides suggestions on how to avoid making the same mistakes I did by being aware of what is going on - not only with your partner's behavior but with your own actions and reactions that keep you trapped within a narcissist's toxic love game. If you are with a narcissist you will most certainly see your own situation reflected within the pages of this book and be able to make a better informed decision as to whether you want to stay or go. Here's what readers have to say: This book is absolutely incredible It's a quick and easy read, and it really hits home in so many ways. Lots of self reflecting with this book. I can't even count how many times I would read a paragraph and think Did we date the same person? I can completely relate Wow, maybe I'm actually not crazy? This book is so important, for absolutely everyone. 'Planet Ben was an amazing book. For me it made me feel sane. I don't think anyone can understand how it feels to be in this tangled web. You feel lost, isolated, lonely and weak. But before you met him you were independent, strong, vivacious and fun. Then somehow you lose yourself and you don't know it's happening. Thank you for putting it out there. I so needed to know I wasn't alone.

A great way to learn and teach your ABCs

Each letter, both in upper and lower case, is illustrated using an easily recognizable picture that not only begins with the letter in question but whose shape is also similar to the letter itself.

This provides the child with a firm visual association to remember the letter--how it looks, how it sounds, and examples of words beginning with that letter. Janie, the little girl in the book, meets the ABC angel in a dream, who introduces her to the shapes and characters of the letters of the alphabet. This nighttime adventure teaches her the letters, and when she wakes, she is happy and ready for school

Are you tired of being told who you are supposed to be? Of feeling boxed in by labels, expectations, and stereotypes-whether from mainstream society or the LGBTQ+ community? If you've ever felt like your sexuality was being used to define your entire identity, Androphile Pride is the book you've been waiting for.
In this groundbreaking and unapologetic guide, G. Scott Graham cuts through the noise to offer a refreshing alternative for androphiles-men who love men but refuse to conform to the rigid expectations imposed by both the gay community and traditional social norms. This book isn't about fitting into a movement or a stereotype; it's about empowering you to define yourself on your own terms.
Inside, you'll discover:

• How societal pressure and groupthink shape identity-and how to break free.
• The myths and manipulations that control the LGBTQ+ narrative.
• The true roots of internalized homophobia and why it's often misunderstood.
• A practical, hands-on framework to help you uncover your values, rather than adopting someone else's.
• Powerful self-exploration exercises designed to strip away the shoulds and uncover the real you.

This isn't just another book about gay pride-it's a book about your pride. No slogans, no agendas, no pressure to conform. Just an unfiltered, insightful, and sometimes provocative journey into what it means to be an androphile, on your terms.
If you're ready to challenge everything you've been told about what it means to be a man who loves men-and create a life that's truly your own-then Androphile Pride is your essential guide.
