Bebout K: Making the Cut

Making the Cut

Surviving the First Year Behind the Chair

Entrepreneurs like Booker T. Washington and Madam C.J. Walker are familiar figures in the history of Black business. But from the hopeful dawn of emancipation to the crucible of Jim Crow, from rural Mound Bayou, Mississippi, to the bustling blocks of Harlem, many others built extraordinary businesses in pursuit of prosperity and freedom. Nevertheless, their efforts to pursue the American Dream were steadily undermined by people intent on profiting on their innovations and reining in their opportunities. Award-winning historian Shennette Garrett-Scott reveals the everyday genius of the people who refused to accept exclusion as identity: former slaves turned cotton mill owners, washerwomen turned financiers, and self-taught visionaries who built banks, real estate empires, and grocery store chains. Their successes were real, but ventures that promised economic independence often provoked backlash as white elites, politicians, and vigilantes tried to contain Black success. Even the boldest dreams often buckled under the combined weight of limited resources and state obstruction.A daring tale, lyrically told, The Business of Freedom reveals the history, strengths, and weaknesses of Black capitalism as a strategy for both individual and collective empowerment and shows why free enterprise alone could never deliver the freedom its champions promised.

Ignite Your Fire Within

“With a perfumer’s art, Ola Salem gives us a heady concoction of travelogue, history, and culture.” —Tilar Mazzeo, New York Times bestselling author A cultural journey through the world of fragrance, weaving together ancient tradition and modern artistry to tell the untold history of our favorite perfume trends of today Scent’s grip on how we feel and what we remember is distinct from our other senses. Unlike sight, sound, taste, or touch, smell bypasses the brain’s central relay, going straight to the limbic system where we process emotions and store memories. This means that a single whiff of perfume can instantly evoke nostalgia, moving us in ways we cannot always explain. Perfume has fascinated every civilization for millennia, evolving from a tool for ancient rituals to a $50 billion global industry. But long before France bottled its fame, Arabia perfected the art of scent—not just as a measure of beauty and attraction but also as a display of power. Yes, Chanel revolutionized fragrance with No. 5, Guerlain’s Shalimar reshaped how the East was imagined, and Tom Ford’s Oud Wood brought the scented wood to the streets of London, Paris, and New York. But places like the Arab gulf, North Africa, East Asia, which gave the world much of these ingredients and techniques, have been written out of their own history. “Intimate, funny, and deeply research” (Clarissa Ward, author of On All Fronts) and based on months of on-the-ground reporting across four continents, Egyptian American journalist Ola Salem provides a first-hand account of the perfume monopoly, interrogating the “fraghead” revolution, debunking industry stereotypes, and examining what the future of fragrance will look like. From Cleopatra’s perfume factories to the modern-day Sephora counter, from the jasmine fields of Egypt to the frankincense trees in Oman, Salem takes readers on an immersive cultural journey to shine a light on the oft-overlooked corners, cultivators, and creators of the fragrance world.

The Lost History of Perfume

'Full of seriously good leadership wisdom - a must read for those who aspire to greatness' Richard Koch, bestselling author of The 80/20 Principle'One of the most stimulating books to read on leadership' Philip Kotler, Professor of International Marketing at the Kellogg School of Management'Loaded with practical, thought-provoking ideas on leadership that can profoundly affect your life' Brian Tracy, bestselling author of How the Best Leaders Lead and Eat That Frog!Have you ever wondered what characteristics are shared by successful business leaders?

THE NO. 1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER As seen in TIME magazine and on High Performance podcast 'This book could change your life' - Time Out 'A remarkable reflection on values and psychology based on hard-won experience' - Rory Stewart Expert advice to master your potential, from the founder and CEO of Discovery and Vitality. Adrian Gore built a company from a single, bold idea into a global financial group serving over 50 million customers across 37 countries. He didn't just scale a business; he created a whole new shared-value business model, a system so revolutionary it's taught as a case study at Harvard Business School and has been recognized by Fortune magazine as 'changing the world'. In The Four Principles, Gore reveals the framework and guiding principles that powered this success for the first time. Moving beyond standard leadership advice, he explores the behavioural science and 'multiplier effect' that occur when these four principles intersect:<ol><li>Disciplined Optimism: We have a default tendency to seek out negative signals. Learn why choosing optimism is the most rational path to seizing overlooked opportunities.</li><li>Focused Urgency: Why your perceived time to make an impact is shorter than you think. Recognizing this can act as your greatest motivator.</li><li>Declared Goals: Psychologically, avoiding a loss feels twice as important as achieving a gain. Setting bold goals triggers this force, unlocking radical motivation and decisive action.</li><li>The 'Pareto Tail': Building on the other principles, learning to identify and target a few high-power decisions can determine your life's entire trajectory.</li></ol> Gore argues that our instincts, shaped for a simpler, linear world, often mislead us in today's complex, networked age. The Four Principles challenges these outdated mental models and shows you how to harness your potential for truly remarkable results - personally and professionally. 'Demonstrates how to create enduring value' - Larry Fink, Chairman and CEO of BlackRock 'Important reading for those aspiring to leadership or seeking to make an impact on the world' - Lord William Hague, Chancellor of the University of Oxford 'The Four Principles distils decades of leadership and insight into a practical framework that explains what matters - and why' - Sir Mark Tucker, Chairman, AIA Group 'For leaders seeking to create outsized impact' - Ruth Porat, President and CIO of Alphabet and Google
