Purgatory (Latin "purgare", to make clean, to purify), in accordance with Catholic teaching, is a place or condition of temporal punishment for those who, departing this life in God's grace, are not entirely free from venial faults, or have not fully paid the satisfaction due to their transgressions. The whole penitential system of the Church testifies that the voluntary assumption of penitential works has always been part of true repentance. The councils of the Church remind the faithful that God does not always remit the whole punishment due to sin together with the guilt.

Tras la elección de Barack Obama, muchos declararon el inicio de una era postracial. Sin embargo, el pensamiento racista, más sofisticado e insidioso que nunca, sigue profundamente arraigado en la sociedad estadounidense. Tal y como argumenta Ibram X. Kendi-la voz más influyente de la lucha antirracista y uno de los referentes actuales del movimiento #BlackLivesMatter-,aunque las ideas racistas se desarrollan, difunden y consagran muy fácilmente, también se las puede desacreditar.

Chi sono gli scienziati che hanno rivoluzionato la storia dell'umanità? Erano davvero dei "geni"? Barbascura X non ha dubbi al riguardo: non solo non lo erano, ma a ben vedere erano anche degli idioti. Pochi sanno delle boiate dette da Democrito, delle folli pratiche alchemiche di Newton, di quante idee si sia fatto fregare quel sociopatico di Tesla o di quanti sbagli abbia commesso Einstein. Quelli che definiamo geni non sono altro che esseri umani appassionati, instancabili ricercatori di conoscenza, con alle spalle un quantitativo inimmaginabile di errori.

En 2000, Ibram X. Kendi, jeune étudiant, donna un discours dans le cadre du concours d'éloquence Martin Luther King Jr. et il présenta la jeunesse noire comme la source de tous les problèmes de la communauté. Ce discours raciste déclencha chez lui un processus d'introspection profonde. Véritable manuel d'éthique raciale du XXIe siècle, cet ouvrage met fin à l'idée qu'il est possible de ne pas être raciste.

The world hasn't seen the likes of me. My power can unmake the gods and the worlds - but only after I mate with the demigod of sea and activate the living flame inside me. Mate all day and all night long. Peachy right? If only we weren't trapped in the void where no gods, demons, or mortals are safe. The monsters here? They eat immortals like us as if we're candy. It's hard to have sexy times when we're fending off titans, cannibals, nasty Ares, and that loose cannon Lucifer.

I abandon all hope that my demigods will come for me. In Hell's Academy, it's either kill or be eaten. Demons turn violence into an art form, and they've marked me as their newest victim. A charismatic archdemon offers me a way out of the pit. His price: spend one night with him and his three dukes.

I'm not what everyone thinks I am. If they discover my hidden origin, both the gods and demons will hunt me to the ends of the universe. But I don't carry my dark secret alone. The sea demigod, my sworn enemy, now carries it with me and leaves a trail of dead bodies behind to keep me - and my secret - safe. Then the God of War returns to the Academy. Obsessed with my uniqueness, he steals me from his son's bed to make me warm his.

I hate myself for craving the panty-melting demigods. But my awakening power is volatile and destructive. Only they can prevent me from turning into a ticking bomb. When Lucifer's heir breaches the wards of the Academy to kidnap me, the sea demigod, my sworn enemy, uncovers my hidden origin. Instead of exposing me, or, worse, leading the Dominion army to hunt me down, he leaves a trail of dead bodies behind to protect my dangerous secret.

In her candid and provocative memoir, Wide Open, Gracie details the years she has spent exploring the poly lifestyle and creating her "chosen family." A fiercely intelligent feminist, she challenges traditional ideas about monogamy, fidelity, and sexuality. From swinger parties and strip clubs to sex toys and pornography, this is an edgy and thought-provoking read. Yet erotica and tenderness share space here, with Gracie's true love for both Hank and Oz—as well as her two children—coming through very clearly.

After the fall of the Soviet Union and its global empire, most observers assumed that the 70-year argument that socialism was superior to capitalism was over.

This chapter-book edition of the number-one New York Times best seller by luminaries Ibram X. Kendi and Jason Reynolds is an essential introduction to the history of racism and antiracism in America.

Meet Pan. She lives a few centuries from now, in a future beyond a data crash that wiped out most records of life from before the 23rd century: the Cataclysm. Her job is to sort through the old sound recordings that survived from before the crash - from the Slow Times. When winters were still cold. When the USA still had people in it. All day she listens to sounds from the Slow Times, and she decides which noises live and which can just...finally die. Deleted to make space. Because data costs.
