Wallace M: Gotham at War

Gotham at War

A History of New York City from 1933 to 1945

In the 1940s, it was believed that homosexuality had been becoming more widespread in the aftermath of war. A moral panic ensued, centred around London as the place to which gay men gravitated. Peter Parker's fascinating new compendium explores what it was actually like for queer men in London in this period, whether they were well-known figures such as Francis Bacon, Joe Orton and Kenneth Williams, or living lives of quiet - or occasionally rowdy - anonymity in pubs, clubs, more public places of assignation, or at home. It is rich with letters, diaries, psychological textbooks, novels, films, plays and police records, covering a wide range of viewpoints, from those who deplored homosexuality to those who campaigned for its decriminalisation. This second volume, from 1960 to 1967, shows how key elements in British society gradually changed their views on homosexuality, resulting in the landmark 1967 act by which it was no longer considered a crime if it took place between adults in private. This did not end violence, discrimination and prejudice, but it at least curbed official persecution. Some Men in London is a testament to queer life and its thriving, joyous subculture - a subculture without which the 1960s would have been immeasurably impoverished.

Some Men In London: Queer Life, 1960-1967

Smart: A History of Intelligence

"A powerful story of faith, perseverance, and resilience." Anthony Fauci, M.D., #1 New York Times bestselling author and former Director of the NIAIDWhat drives you forward? Is it the pursuit of your ideals or something deeper that's rooted in the tension between who you are and who you will become?Michael Leach, the first-ever Chief Diversity Office of the White House, in his debut book, Faith Over Fear, takes you on a journey that explores the gap between what we aspire to and what we often settle for, both as individuals and as a society.Often as the lone Black man at the forefront of these organizations and operations, Michael has chosen to learn from his experiences, lead, and help others progress. In 2016, when San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick decided to 'take a knee', Leach resonated profoundly. Kaepernick's actions challenged Michael to balance his identity as a Black man with his professional ambitions within the league. This lead him to leave the NFL and join the Biden-Harris administration.In Faith Over Fear, Michael illuminates the stark contrasts between ideals and realities, shedding light on the hidden dynamics of privilege, power, and systemic injustice. He discusses the importance of DEI and inspires readers to reimagine leadership, resilience, and purpose.Leach shares:<ul><li>How you can close the gap between your ideals and the realities you live in.</li><li>Insights and principles to help you navigate your career, relationships, personal growth, and social challenges.</li><li>How to acknowledge the role of fear and work with others.</li></ul>This is more than a story of one man's journey, it is a call to action for individuals of all backgrounds to harness the power of faith and resilience in the face of adversity. Our country was founded on ideals that promised freedom and opportunity for all, but the reality has often been far more complicated.Leach's story demonstrates by "taking a knee" before God in moments of uncertainty, we can shift life's challenges into opportunities for meaningful progress and collective healing. This book aspires to be a generationally transformative narrative, urging readers to critically examine and bridge the gap between the ideals we hold dear and the realities we live.
