Free Download Tending Grief: Embodied Rituals for Holding Our Sorrow and Growing Cultures of Care in Community (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CFG895WN | 2024 | 5 hours and 5 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 282 MB
Author: Camille Sapara Barton
Narrator: Camille Sapara Barton
An embodied guide to being with grief individually and in community-practical exercises, decolonized rituals, and Earth-based medicines for healing and processing loss. We live in a culture that suppresses our ability to truly feel our grief-deeply, safely, and on our own terms. But each person's experience is as unique as the grief itself. Here, Camille Barton's take on grief speaks directly to the ways that BIPOC and queer people disproportionately experience unique constellations of loss. Deeply practical and easy to use in times of confusion, trauma, and pain, Tending Grief includes rituals, reflection prompts, and exercises that help us process and metabolize our grief-without bypassing or pushing aside what comes to the fore.

Author: Loretta Napoleoni
Narrator: Wendy Tremont King
The respected Italian economist and journalist offers a bold and provocative argument that the speed of technological transformation is threatening our future. At the dawn of the digital revolution, the internet was going to be the great equalizer, a global democratic force. Instead, Wall Street ended up funding a new breed of serial capitalists, the Techtitans, who embraced rapid, transformational change while stripping their workers of rights and enriching themselves beyond anybody's wildest imagination; and the Space Barons, who mine new frontiers for precious resources.

English | ASIN: B0CXVZPQB5 | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~09:56:00 | 273 MB
A STEP-BY-STEP PROGRAM TO CREATE A MORE PRIVATE AND EGALITARIAN DIGITAL WORLD
Taking Privacy Seriously offers both a hard-hitting assessment of the origins of today's privacy-eroding practices and a robust road map for creating individual authority over our personal data. James B. Rule proposes eleven key reforms in the control and use of personal information-including far-reaching new rights for individuals and meaningful responsibilities for data-keeping organizations-all aimed at redressing the balance of power between ordinary citizens and data hungry corporate and government institutions.
What a privacy-deprived America needs most is not less technology, Rule argues, but profound political realignment. His proposed reforms include the creation of websites that publicly document what organizations are holding what forms of personal data; the establishment of a right for citizens to withdraw from personal data systems not required by law; and the institution of a universal property right over commercial exploitation of data on oneself-so that no organization could profit from the use or sale of such data without permission.

Author: Kara Loewentheil
Narrator: Kara Loewentheil
A manual for every woman who wants to stop endless negative self-talk, create unshakable confidence, and jump-start a life of joy and power. It all begins with your thoughts. I never look good in tight skirts. I can't ask for a raise or my boss will think I'm greedy. I'm getting too old to find a partner. I'm a bad mom. I'm always behind. I'll never be good enough. What if every time you had a self-critical thought, you heard it in a man's voice? The truth is not far off. Living in a patriarchy, women absorb a lifetime of messages that say your worth is defined by your looks, your accomplishments, and how well you take care of everyone around you. In fact, these messages are so pervasive that, even knowing they exist, they still manage to program themselves into our brains. The result is that women end up feeling anxious, guilty, and vaguely ashamed of themselves no matter how much they do for others or achieve for themselves. So how do we deprogram our thoughts from patriarchy's corrosive influence? And once we do, how can we create new, self-empowering beliefs?

English | ASIN: B0CRXCN5DP | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~06:54:00 | 190 MB
REVISED AND UPDATED TO INCLUDE THE BOY AND THE HERON
The animations of Japan's Studio Ghibli are among the most respected in the movie industry. Their films rank alongside the most popular non-English language films ever made, with each new release a guaranteed box office hit. Yet this highly profitable studio has remained fiercely independent, producing a stream of imaginative and individual animations. The studio's founders, Hayao Miyazaki and the late Isao Takahata, have created timeless masterpieces. Their films are distinctly Japanese but the themes are universal: humanity, community and a love for the environment.
Studio Ghibli outlines the history of the studio and explores the early output of its founders. It examines all the studio's major works including Laputa: Castle in the Sky, Grave of the Fireflies, My Neighbour Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, Only Yesterday, Porco Rosso, Pom Poko, Whisper of the Heart, Princess Mononoke and Howl's Moving Castle, as well as the Oscar-winning Spirited Away. Also included are the more recent animations: Hayao Miyazaki's Oscar-nominated masterpiece The Wind Rises, Isao Takahata's The Tale of Princess Kaguya, Goro Miyazaki's Earwig and the Witch and Hayao Miyazaki's latest box office success, The Boy and the Heron, which recently won a BAFTA, Golden Globe and Academy Award.
