Human Rights

This book included 2014 updates. In April 2014, the Universities of Michigan, Chicago, Illinois and Brandeis refused to screen or acknowledge nine Muslim, Sikh & Christian women rights leaders, who expose the brutal abuse of women and girls justified in the name of religion, culture or Shariah, on screen in the Honor Diaries documentary, released March 8. Yes you read this correctly. Women students and faculty at American colleges are silencing the heart-breaking abuse of women and actively shutting down Free Speech. Does Freedom of Religion over-rule the abuse of women in its name? How has violence against women become political? Where does religion end and politics begin? How are European Leaders drawing this line? This colorful, pocket sized, easy to read, Show N Tell Book explains what is going on in America. Each page is description of one of 60+ American or European news stories from 2008 – 2014, with a quote, photo, and context provided by over 75 experts. Women’s rights activist and author, Joy Brighton, provides bullet point chapter summaries and green “insight boxes” to help readers connect the dots. This book is written for busy Americans who are concerned that political correctness is backfiring in America. But, they only have 10 minutes while drinking coffee or in the “loo”, to flip through a book, before their day starts. This is your FLIP book. In a nutshell, Islam is a religion, protected under the U.S. First Amendment. Sharia-ism is the political movement of Radical Islam and is not protected under the First Amendment. Sharia-ism is about control, not destruction. Sharia-ism seeks total control over women, religion, speech & politics. In fact, Sharia-ists are determined to control anyone who refuses to follow their rules. Only a small piece of Sharia-ism involves terrorism. Because if you want to control something, why blow it up? In the past 5 years, European nations, including Great Britain, France, Germany, Norway, Switzerland, Belgium, Denmark, and Sweden, have taken legal action to de-rail Sharia-ism. To the contrary, U.S. elite are enabling the growth of Sharia-ism out of ignorance, intimidation or self-interest. Fortunately, a growing number of Congress and State Governors, educated by the grass roots and freelance journalists are taking action against Sharia-ism. So what can you do to get involved? Start with 10 minutes of “flipping” through this book.

Human Rights

Life Interrupted introduces us to survivors of human trafficking who are struggling to get by and make homes for themselves in the United States. Having spent nearly a decade following the lives of formerly trafficked men and women, Denise Brennan recounts in close detail their flight from their abusers and their courageous efforts to rebuild their lives. At once scholarly and accessible, her book links these firsthand accounts to global economic inequities and under-regulated and unprotected workplaces that routinely exploit migrant laborers in the United States. Brennan contends that today's punitive immigration policies undermine efforts to fight trafficking. While many believe trafficking happens only in the sex trade, Brennan shows that across low-wage labor sectors—in fields, in factories, and on construction sites—widespread exploitation can lead to and conceal forced labor. Life Interrupted is a riveting account of life in and after trafficking and a forceful call for meaningful immigration and labor reform.
