As a black doctor working on the frontline of the NHS, Matt Hutchinson hears these words all too often. In this book, he offers a compelling glimpse into the unvarnished reality of working in healthcare as an ethnic minority. Tracing his journey from medical school through to working at some of the country's most chaotic hospitals, Matt uncovers how the true backbone of the NHS is the diverse community of immigrant healthcare workers who work tirelessly to keep the show on the road.

While the North prevailed in the Civil War, ending slavery and giving the country a "new birth of freedom," Heather Cox Richardson argues in this provocative work that democracy's blood-soaked victory was ephemeral. The system that had sustained the defeated South moved westward and there established a foothold. It was a natural fit. Settlers from the East had for decades been pushing into the West, where the seizure of Mexican lands at the end of the Mexican-American War and treatment of Native Americans cemented racial hierarchies....

But where are you really from? Phil Wang has been asked this question so many times he's lost count. So, finally, he decided to write a book about it. About how to be from two places at once. Phil was born in the UK, in Stoke-on-Trent to an English mother and a Chinese-Malaysian father. Three weeks after his birth, the Wang family returned to his fathers' hometown in Malaysia, and at age 16, Phil was uprooted once again, to return with his family to the UK.

Story15
The term killjoy has been used to dismiss feminism by claiming that it causes misery. But by naming ourselves feminist killjoys, we recover a feminist history, turning it into a source of strength as well as an inspiration. Drawing on her own stories and those of others, especially Black and brown feminists and queer thinkers, Sara Ahmed combines depth of thought with honesty and intimacy. The Feminist Killjoy Handbook unpicks the lies our culture tells us and provides a form of solidarity and companionship that can be returned to over a lifetime.

In einer schweren Krise wurde die NSDAP 1932 zur mit Abstand stärksten Partei gewählt. Bald konnte sie die Macht übernehmen und auf wachsende gesellschaftliche Zustimmung bauen. Hitler brauchte den Krieg – das Volk fürchtete sich davor. Dennoch terrorisierten schließlich 18 Millionen deutsche Soldaten Europa. Wie kam es dazu? Warum beteiligten sich Hunderttausende an beispiellosen Massenmorden? Tiefgründig analysiert Götz Aly die Herrschaftsmethoden, mit denen die NS-Machthaber Millionen Deutsche in gefügige Vollstrecker oder in vom Krieg abgestumpfte Mitmacher verwandelten.

A few years ago, I found myself in A&E. I had never felt so ill. I was mentally and physically broken. So fractured, I hadn't eaten properly or slept well or even changed my expression for months. I sat in a cubicle, behind paper-thin curtains, and I shook with the effort of not crying. I was an inch away from defeat...but I knew I had to carry on. Because I wasn't the patient. I was the doctor.
