Douglas Sterner, "Go For Broke: The Nisei Warriors of World War II Who Conquered Germany, Japan, and American Bigotry" English | ISBN: 0979689619 | 2015 | 216 pages | AZW3 | 6 MB Japanese-Americans were forcefully removed from their homes and businesses, and placed in "relocation" camps throughout the West. With countless instances of "Gestapo-like" tactics used against them, no one would have faulted them for being bitter or angry at the country that held them captive. Instead, the remarkable story of these Nesei (first generation Japanese born outside of Japan) warriors explains why they were eager to defend their American homeland, and how they became the most decorated fighting unit ever assembled in U.S. military history. Go For Broke is the incredible story of how these soldiers, known as the purple Heart Battlalion," helped liberate Europe, the Pacific, and America from its pervasive and systemic bigotry. ![]() Free Download Alderik H.

Through a detailed study of a grassroots peasants' network in Asia (People's Global Action), an international trade union network (the International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mining and General Workers) and the Social Forum process, it analyses some of the global justice movement's component parts, operational networks and their respective dynamics, strategies and practices. The authors argue that the emergence of new globally-connected forms of collective action against neoliberal globalisation are indicative of a range of place-specific forms of political agency that coalesce across geographic space at particular times, in specific places, and in a variety of ways. ![]() Free Download Global Trends in Health, Technology and Management English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031754565 | 406 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 63 MB This book presents the proceedings of the 1st International Symposium on Global Trends in Health, Technology and Management (GTHTM-2024), held on March 15-17, 2024, in Dehradun, India.
