The Trouble with Diversity (eBook, ePUB)
A brilliant assault on our obsession with every difference except the one that really matters-the difference between rich and poorIf there's one thing Americans agree on, it's the value of diversity. Our corporations vie for slots in the Diversity Top 50, our universities brag about minority recruiting, and every month is Somebody's History Month. But in this provocative new book, Walter Benn Michaels argues that our enthusiastic celebration of "difference" masks our neglect of America's vast and growing economic divide. Affirmative action in schools has not made them more open, it's just guaranteed that the rich kids come in the appropriate colors. Diversity training in the workplace has not raised anybody's salary (except maybe the diversity trainers') but it has guaranteed that when your job is outsourced, your culture will be treated with respect.With lacerating prose and exhilarating wit, Michaels takes on the many manifestations of our devotion to diversity, from companies apologizing for slavery, to a college president explaining why there aren't more women math professors, to the codes of conduct in the new "humane corporations." Looking at the books we read, the TV shows we watch, and the lawsuits we bring, Michaels shows that diversity has become everyone's sacred cow precisely because it offers a false vision of social justice, one that conveniently costs us nothing. The Trouble with Diversity urges us to start thinking about real justice, about equality instead of diversity. Attacking both the right and the left, it will be the most controversial political book of the year.- Shop: buecher

Fever , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 369min
The virus causes such a high fever that the body succumbs in days. It is everywhere. The death rate is out of control. When an outbreak of H7N2, or as the news calls it, Whitby Fever, begins striking cats and dogs, it is newsworthy but not panic-inducing, until it is confirmed that Whitby Fever has crossed the boundaries, spreading from domestic pets to humans at an astronomical rate. Mills Run, Ohio, is not much different from any other small town. The residents have a bond and kinship. The townspeople brag that Mills Run is isolated, and at times, cut off from the rest of the world. However, not even Mills Run is secluded enough for a global pandemic. However, when the virus strikes, the townspeople of Mills Run quickly learn they are not immune. Clare, like every other mother, sister, and daughter in the world, does her part to fight and help those around her who she loves. A face mask may be her armor, her good heart may be her shield, but there is no weapon to defeat the fever because there is no cure. Mother Nature rages a viral war against the world, and Mills Run is one of the millions of battlegrounds fighting to live. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Emma Lysy.

How would you like to listen to this story? "The Gangbang Fantasy Mistake (When I Took On My Husband and His Friends) - A Group Sex Erotica Story with Double Penetration" by Tara Skye My best friend wrote fantasy scenarios for a company that sent them out with sex toys. One day she showed me one, and I was so impressed I wanted to brag about her to my husband. I left it up on my computer and told him to read it. He didn't understand. He thought it was my fantasy. The next thing I knew, he was fulfilling a fantasy for me that I didn't even have, and my mouth was filled (you can guess how) before I could explain. Suddenly, I was right in the middle of a gangbang with my husband and seven of his friends. I ended up with my first anal sex and even double penetration! That's only one of the sexy tales you'll find in this collection. Warning: This book contains very explicit descriptions of sexual activity including rough first anal sex, reluctant first anal sex, rough sex, double team sex, rough group sex, rough deep throat, reluctant semen swallowing, reluctant ass to mouth, double penetration, group first anal sex, and more.

Seven Deadlies: A Cautionary Tale , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 250min
Dear Bennington College Admissions Officer: I'm probably not your average applicant from Beverly Hills, CA. And I'm not one to brag, but I'm pretty much the smartest girl in my class at Mark Frost Academy. My grades are excellent. My motivation is high. I don't drink or do drugs or hang out with the bad kids. I'm pretty much all business. My life is not going to end here, in this part of Los Angeles. I'm going places. Which brings me to my latest venture: babysitting teenagers. A few of the moms talked to my mother. You should see them. They gather around her like Bieber fans. She's barely five feet tall, beautiful and regal, a Latina queen. Their diamond bracelets shimmer. I look at those bracelets and want to eat them. Where did they go wrong? Can Perry help out this weekend? I have to go to New York for fashion week. I have to go to a premiere. My daughter needs help with biology…and staying out of my medicine cabinet. I get paid forty an hour. I have business cards. My name is Perry Gonzales. The stories you are about to read are true. The names have been changed to protect the not-so-innocent. By the time you're finished, I think you'll appreciate how desperately I need to get out of here. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Audrey Esparza.

Fifty Shades of Grey: The Experiment , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 126min, (USK 18)
What happens when you try 50 Shades in the REAL world? When accountant Ben Weaver awakens after an erotic dream, he encounters a wife who is unwilling, uninterested, and who once again has a headache. The unworldly but focused Ben decides he will do anything to rekindle his sex life, including imitating the erotic techniques of billionaire Christian Grey from the Fifty Shades series. Unable to withstand the pent-up ache radiating from his tender blue testicles, Ben decides to take Grey's methods to a whole new level in order to relieve the pressure on his...er, marriage. Shocked by her husband's unusual plan, Kate Weaver hesitates in giving him what he desires. But for all his trappings of non-success - his ordinary accounting job where coworkers steal his sandwiches and brag about their sex lives, his lack of wealth, his inability to seduce his own wife - Ben is a man with one saving talent: The driving determination to reignite his sex life no matter what it takes. When the couple embarks on a daring and dangerous physical adventure, Kate discovers her husband's fanatical zeal to explore all of Christian Grey's darkest desires, with calamitous results. Erotic, hilarious, and highly disturbing, Fifty Shades of Fifty Shades of Grey is a spin-off that will titillate you, amuse you, and stay with you. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Align with Your Purpose: Everything You Need You Already Have , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 71min
Knowing what your purpose is seems so difficult to discover. The reason I am making this audiobook is because I have discovered my purpose. My purpose is to help you discover yours. I have the ability within, as we all do, to tap into the answers that seem unanswerable. I say this boldly, not to brag or boast, but to allow you to know you have access to this source. You have access to all of the answers you will ever need. You have just forgotten that you do. You see, we are born with this, but throughout life, our teachings, environment, even our religion has been allowed by us to rob us of what we instinctively know. I have the answers to anything I want to know right now. So do you. You have a connection to God, our source, the universe, our higher selves, whatever you choose to call it. It is important for you to know it is not ever something you have to try to access or earn the right to access. You simply and truly have access, anytime and anywhere. The reason for this audiobook is to remind you that your highest level of service, your purpose, if you will, is there, and now, you only need to step into it. ungekürzt. Language: English.
