    An African American and Latinx History of the United States by Paul Ortiz | Free Audiobook

    Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: An African American and Latinx History of the United States Author: Paul Ortiz Narrator: J. D. Jackson Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 4 mins Language: English Release date: 01-30-18 Publisher: Beacon Press Genres: History, American Summary: An intersectional history of the shared struggle for African American and Latinx civil rights Spanning more than 200 years, An African American and Latinx History of the United States is a revolutionary, politically charged narrative history arguing that the "Global South" was crucial to the development of America as we know it. Ortiz challenges the notion of westward progress, as exalted by widely taught formulations such as "manifest destiny" and "Jacksonian democracy," and shows how placing African American, Latinx, and Indigenous voices unapologetically front and center transforms American history into the story of the working class organizing against imperialism. In precise detail, Ortiz traces this untold history from the Jim Crow-esque racial segregation of the Southwest, the rise and violent fall of a powerful tradition of Mexican labor organizing in the 20th century, to May 1, 2006, International Workers' Day, when migrant laborers - Chicana/os, Afro-Cubanos, and immigrants from nearly every continent on earth - united in resistance on the first "Day Without Immigrants". Incisive and timely, An African American and Latinx History of the United States is a bottom-up history told from the viewpoint of African American and Latinx activists and revealing the radically different ways people of the diaspora addressed issues still plaguing the United States today.

    Black Fortunes by Shomari Wills | Free Audiobook

    Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Black Fortunes Author: Shomari Wills Narrator: Ron Butler Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 01-30-18 Publisher: Harper Audio Genres: History, American Summary: The astonishing untold history of America's first black millionaires - former slaves who endured incredible challenges to amass and maintain their wealth for a century, from the Jacksonian period to the Roaring '20s - self-made entrepreneurs whose unknown success mirrored that of American business heroes such as Henry Ford, John D. Rockefeller, and Thomas Edison. While Oprah Winfrey, Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Michael Jordan, and Will Smith are among the estimated 35,000 black millionaires in the nation today, these famous celebrities were not the first blacks to reach the storied 1 percent. Between the years of 1830 and 1927, as the last generation of blacks born into slavery were reaching maturity, a small group of smart, tenacious, and daring men and women broke new ground to attain the highest levels of financial success. Black Fortunes is an intriguing look at these remarkable individuals, including Napoleon Bonaparte Drew - author Shomari Wills' great-great-great-grandfather - the first black man in Powhatan County (contemporary Richmond) to own property in post-Civil War Virginia. His achievements were matched by five other unknown black entrepreneurs including: A fresh, little-known chapter in the nation's story - a blend of Hidden Figures, Titan, and The Tycoons - Black Fortunes illuminates the birth of the black business titan and the emergence of the black marketplace in America as never before.

(historiaconminusculas.blogspot.com.es) Combinando tres facetas fundamentales de la vida de Winston Churchill - su vida privada, su trayectoria políticay bélica, y el contexto histórico en el que ambas se desarrollaron-, Breve Historia de Winston Churchill nos presenta la biografía del político que gobernó Inglaterra durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, pero que, además, luchó en la Guerra del 98, en la Guerra de los Boers, que participó en la Primera Guerra Mundial como Lord del Almirantazgo y asistió al duro proceso de descolonización de Inglaterra. José-Vidal Pelaz López nos presenta su vida de un modo ameno y accesible a cualquier oyenteinteresado en esta figura imprescindible del S. XX. Churchill nace en 1874 hijo de un lord de la época victoriana y de una bella americana, crece en plena época de esplendor del Imperio victoriano, y asiste al progresivo declive del imperio. La vida política de Churchill está marcada por su actividad constante y por procesos decrisis y gloria que marcan el perfil de un hombre que supoimplicarse en todos sus proyectos hasta sus últimas consecuencias. Miembro del los liberales y de los conservadores ingleses; dirigente de varios ministeriospero destituido tras el desastre de Gallípolli en la Primera Guerra Mundial; apartado de la política desde 1929 a 1939 y elegido Primer Ministro al año siguiente; capaz deenfrentarse en solitario a la Alemania del Führer, de lograr un acuerdo con E.E.U.U. y Rusia que cambiará el sentido de la guerra, pero incapaz de ser reelegido en 1945; y, en un último golpe de carisma, elegido de nuevo como Primer Ministro en 1951, con 71 años, en plena Guerra Fría: la vida de Churchill es una lección de determinación y compromiso, pero también un relato apasionante y turbulento como el siglo que le tocó administrar.

    Todo lo que debe saber sobre la 1 Guerra Mundial [Everything you need to know about the 1st World War] por Jesús Hernández | Audio Libro Gratis

    Escuche este audio libro completo gratis en : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Título: Todo lo que debe saber sobre la 1 Guerra Mundial [Everything you need to know about the 1st World War] Autor: Jesús Hernández Narrador: Eduardo Wasveiler Formato: Unabridged Duración: 9 hrs and 22 mins Idioma: Español Fecha de publicación: 01-23-18 Editor: Audible Studios Categorías: History, 20th Century Resumen: En Junio de 1914 el asesinato del archiduque Francisco Fernando de Austria provocó la primera "guerra total" de la historia: un conflicto que cambiará el destino del mundo. Normalmente no se presta a la Primera Guerra Mundial la debida atención, las estanterías, rebosantes de libros sobre la Segunda Guerra Mundial, no tienen mucho sitio para su predecesora. Esta fantástica obra de Jesús Hernández viene a arrojar luz sobre este conflicto fundamental para entender gran parte de los enfrentamientos políticos del S.XX, como la propia Segunda Guerra Mundial, y algunos de los que aún siguen abiertos en pleno S.XXI, por ejemplo, los combates entre israelíes y palestinos. En Todo lo que debe saber sobre la Primera Guerra Mundial conoceremos no sólo los datos más importantes de la contienda, también misterios que aún no han sido resueltos, leyendas y mitos, curiosidades históricas, y una descripción de la dureza de la vida en las trincheras. Pone Jesús Hernández sus abundantes conocimientos a disposición de un estilo narrativo impecable, ágil y exacto, y consigue recrear las escenas más sobresalientes del resurgimiento milagroso del ejército francés que salvó París en 1914, o la espontánea tregua navideña del frente oriental, o el fracaso de las batallas de Chemin des Dammes y de Passchendeale donde unos oficiales engreídos enviaron a una muerte segura a miles de soldados. Además de aclararnos misterios como la desaparición del regimiento de Norfolk en Turquía y explicarnos el origen de leyendas como la de que un ejército de arqueros fantasmas ayudaron a los aliados.

    World War II Auschwitz: A History from Beginning to End by Hourly History | Free Audiobook

    Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: World War II Auschwitz: A History from Beginning to End Author: Hourly History Narrator: Stephen Paul Aulridge Jr Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr Language: English Release date: 01-22-18 Publisher: Hourly History Genres: History, 20th Century Summary: Auschwitz is a monument to the barbaric inhumanity of the Nazi regime. It is the site where more than one million people were systematically tortured and killed in support of Adolf Hitlers determination to eradicate entire populations that he viewed as racially impure. Dr. Josef Mengele conducted horrific experiments on live victims, treating his subjects as if they werent human. The Jews, homosexuals, Communists, Jehovahs Witnesses, and the mentally and physically disabled were less than human to the Nazis. The Final Solution, a cornerstone of Nazi ideology, enacted a devastating sentence upon people whose only crime was their ethnic origin or their religious and political beliefs. But the voices of Auschwitz continue to be heard. Anne Franks diary speaks for all the innocent who were sent there. Elie Wiesel spent his life speaking out against the horrors he and others endured at Auschwitz. The recorded histories of the survivors of the camps keep the memories alive for generations whose only knowledge of the Holocaust would otherwise be through a school assignment to read The Diary of Anne Frank or by watching a movie like Schindlers List. Auschwitz holds a bizarre fascination for those who hear about it. How could such evil thrive? How could an entire nation surrender to the rantings of a diabolical man who sought revenge against the followers of a religion? The names reverberate in a gallery of maniacs who purported to be leaders: Hitler, Goebbels, Mengele, Goering, Himmler, and the countless others who supported them.

    California Through Native Eyes: Reclaiming History by William J. Bauer Jr. | Free Audiobook

    Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: California Through Native Eyes: Reclaiming History Author: William J. Bauer Jr. Narrator: Ted Brooks Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 53 mins Language: English Release date: 01-15-18 Publisher: University Press Audiobooks Genres: History, American Summary: Most California histories begin with the arrival of the Spanish missionaries in the late 18th century and conveniently skip to the Gold Rush of 1849. Noticeably absent from these stories are the perspectives and experiences of the people who lived on the land long before European settlers arrived. Historian William Bauer seeks to correct that oversight through an innovative approach that tells California history strictly through Native perspectives. Using oral histories of Concow, Pomo, and Paiute workers, taken as part of a New Deal federal works project, Bauer reveals how Native peoples have experienced and interpreted the history of the land we now call California. Combining these oral histories with creation myths and other oral traditions, he demonstrates the importance of sacred landscapes, animals, and other nonhuman actors to the formation of place and identity. He also examines tribal stories of ancestors who prophesied the coming of white settlers and uses their recollections of the California Indian Wars to push back against popular narratives that seek to downplay Native resistance. The result both challenges the "California story" and enriches it with new voices and important points of view, serving as a model for understanding Native historical perspectives in other regions. "Destined to become a classic model of writing not only Indigenous histories, but the history of U.S. colonialism." - Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, author of An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States "An excellent example of a historian applying the theories of Native studies with the methods of history." - Cathleen D. Cahill, author of Federal Fathers and Mothers: A Social History of the United States Indian Service, 1869-1933 Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com
