México es un país racista que niega serlo. Con argumentos como “No es racismo, sino clasismo”, “Acá somos todos mestizos” o “Nunca hubo un sistema segregacionista como en Estados Unidos” negamos que hemos perpetuado la discriminación durante generaciones. Tenoch Huerta, actor de reconocido prestigio y portavoz del debate y la lucha antirracista en México desde hace años, se encarga de rebatir estos y otros mitos acerca del racismo en Orgullo prieto.

Julia tiene grandes sueños y no quiere formar parte del camino de su hermana mayor. Pero un solo error, que ocurre mientras enviaba un mensaje de texto al mismo tiempo que cruzaba la calle más concurrida de Chicago, resulta en la muerte de Olga, dejando atrás a Julia para ocuparse de las secuelas.

Publisher's summary
Ser mujer negra en España es un libro necesario para entender el racismo y, sobre todo, para que nunca más se produzca.
¿Cuánto tiempo llevas aquí? ¿Por qué hablas tan bien español? ¿Ya has ido a tu país? ¿Me enseñas tus papeles? ¿De dónde es una belleza tan exótica como tú? ¿Es verdad eso de que las mujeres negras sois unas fieras en la cama?
Como una suerte de memorias, que van desde la infancia hasta la adultez, Desirée Bela-Lobedde, activista afroespañola, nos cuenta cómo es vivir siendo mujer y negra en España, cómo es sentirse siempre diferente y cómo es ser testigo del racismo que todavía existe en este país. Y lo hace desde el corazón y desde la profunda convicción de que esto puede cambiar y que, finalmente, todos podemos llegar a ser mejores personas si dejamos los prejuicios y la intolerancia de lado.
Reseña:
«Una biografía política contemporánea que muestra lo invisible, lo que nos rodea sin que apenas le prestemos atención, lo que nos conmueve en cuanto la autora nos lo relata en primera persona, sin filtros, sin edulcorantes, sin artificios. Un libro valioso y valiente. Un libro para romper: tópicos, estereotipos, prejuicios, normalidades no reflexionadas. Un libro para repensar(nos).»
Nuria Varela, autora de Feminismo para principiantes

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

On the face of it, a simple book of 26 poem fables sharing one man’s wisdom. But The Prophet is so much more than that. It has inspired people from John F Kennedy to The Beatles and became the '60s Bible of counterculture – all because of the timeless truths it shared. Each poem takes a different theme – pleasure, beauty, freedom, joy and sorrow – as the fictional Al Mustapha shares his thoughts and experiences as he prepares to travel back to his island home.

The 10 enlightening (and often humorous) lectures of Medieval Myths and Mysteries will show you how far from the “dark” times of legend these centuries were. Uncover the facts about the Knights Templar. Reveal the truth behind the tales of legendary creatures like the Questing Beast and the unicorn. Trace the events of the Black Death and the ways it altered the world in its wake, and much more. With Professor Armstrong, you will dig deep into the ways that later generations reshaped the narrative of the medieval years and perpetuated the myths.

Informative, gripping
I would recommend this book to anyone who is black and living in Spain or wanting to move to Spain. My husband is a Spaniard and I am a black American woman so I enjoyed listening to the parallels and seeing how they compared with the black American experience. Thank you so much for sharing your perspective.
