The book was awarded the 2011 NCA Franklyn S. Haiman Award for Distinguished Scholarship in Freedom of Expression.This book sets out to explore how hate comes alive in language and actions by examining the nature and persuasive functions of hate in American society. Hate speech may be used for many purposes and have different intended consequences. It may be directed to intimidate an out-group, or to influence the behavior of in-group members. But how does this language function? What does it accomplish? The answers to these questions are addressed by an examination of the communicative messages produced by those with hateful minds. Beginning with an examination of the organized hate movement, the book provides a critique of racist discourse used to recruit and socialize new members, construct enemies, promote valued identities, and encourage ethnoviolence. The book also examines the strategic manipulation of hatred in our everyday lives by politicians, political operatives, and media personalities. Providing a comprehensive overview of hate speech, the book ends by describing the desirable features of an anti-hate discourse that promotes respect for social differences.
Susan Norman's disturbing childhood and violent marriage left her with learning and writing difficulties that she has spent her life overcoming. Using guile, good humour and a fair dollop of native intelligence, she endured extreme domestic violence and misfortune, yet always managed to spring off the back foot and bounce back.Hardworking and forthright, Susan has negotiated successful careers as a prison officer, hostage negotiator and businesswoman. Her trademark of an infectious sense of humour, loyalty, compassion and kindness to others is a tribute to her authentic self.Her narrative tracks her life from early childhood in the downtrodden streets of the East End of London, her marriage to a violent pimp and her struggles to bring up her children in appalling living conditions. Despite being unable to write, Susan became a prison officer in the notorious and dangerous corridors of Boggo Road Prison. Eventually, after many years of outstanding service, work stress overcame her, forcing her to leave.Embarking on a successful business venture with her husband, and trusting that her daughter, Ivy, would never hurt her, Susan encouraged her daughter's involvement in the day-to-day running of the company. Manipulated and blackmailed by Ivy into losing control of the company she worked hard to establish, Susan was locked out of her company office and left in despair and penniless.Written with the help of a ghostwriter, this is a story of tenacity and strength in adversity and - despite suffering the worst form of betrayal, from close family - the fortitude to rise above it, laugh and bounce back.

Infanticide is the crime of killing an infant. It is one of the commonest, yet least understood of all human crimes. Estimates of its frequency, based upon historical studies and modern data, indicate that up to 10-15% of all children ever born have been killed by their parents: an astounding seven billion victims! Most people find it difficult to accept that anyone, except the most severely mentally disturbed felon, would kill their own child.The author provides the first exhaustive survey of infanticide, drawing on historical data from around the world. He then uses this survey as a basis for investigating why infanticide has been present in every form of human society throughout history.Although academic articles document isolated aspects of this problem, a single, unified analysis of infanticide has not been completed until now.Both comprehensive and compelling, this important study will intrigue students of human psychology, social welfare, and child abuse, and will promote further research on this alarmingly overlooked atrocity.Dr. Larry S. Milner, an expert in the field of infanticide, brings to light reasons why parents have so often resorted to murdering their offspring.A board-certified physician in Internal Medicine, Hematology and Oncology as well as an attorney, Dr. Milner wrote this book to inform the public about the historical and current practice of infanticide in order to promote prevention.INCLUDES INDEX
Consequences Beyond Belief is a first-hand account of shame, guilt, drugs, hope, love and mental health from a child of an addict. Nothing is out of bounds, and it is not dramatised or stripped back. There are a lot of references to research conducted in terms of mental health and addiction from various sources.Social norms teach us what a heroin addict may look like. Common perceptions by the media and popular films such as Trainspotting show themes of desperate addicts who may be homeless, lacking work or even resorting to prostitution. Even popular music culture like Ed Sheeran's The A Team, shows the dark side of drug addiction.In fact, ¿ of homeless people cite drug and alcohol abuse as a reason for becoming homeless. But my story breaks statistics and challenges what we think we know. Introducing my mother.Let's start a conversation and help those who are suffering in silence. I felt so alone as a teenager, as though I was the only one combating this. If I had a guide like this, it would have changed my outlook. I wouldn't have blamed myself or felt so isolated.
Have you been deeply hurt by your father?Did the man who should have loved you, listened to you and protected you inflict traumas that still affect your life today?Are you struggling every day to repair the damage that he has caused?Being daughters raised by emotionally absent fathers is a difficult and lonely experience; you may have low self-esteem, suffer from anger and depression and feel that you have no value.There are several ways in which fathers can be emotionally distant from their daughters: through divorce, work/careers, military service, addictions, serious physical or mental illness or death.It is possible that these men are narcissists who have showered you with constant criticism and try to manipulate and control you. Or it may be that they were abusive to you or were simply old-fashioned fathers of few words and expressed what they wanted only with gestures.Adult daughters of emotionally absent fathers always recognise that something is wrong, but overlook the devastating long-term effects that impact themselves, their romantic relationships, their friendships and their work or careers.I recommend that you read this book if you recognise some of these attitudes in your father:- Only your physical needs exist for them, not your emotional ones.- They talk to you in a flat, uninterested tone of voice.- They make cruelly critical comments.- They do not listen to you or take an interest in your life.- They never compliment you or celebrate your achievements.- They never spend time alone with you.- They rarely convey their affection to you with hugs or smiles.- They are distracted when they are with you, by work, TV or their phone.- They are addicted to alcohol or other substances.- They spend money on unnecessary things before they meet your needs.- They are unable to manage their emotions and express their feelings.- They are defensive and unwilling to accept points of view other than their own.- They blame you for their faults or mistakes.- They do not take responsibility for their actions.- They deny reality when you try to talk about their attitudes, making you feel crazy.These are just some of the most common signs. In any family, the situation can be complex and varied. The devastating effects of an emotionally absent father are not often talked about. The world needs to talk about these types of fathers!You, on the other hand, may be experiencing the following:- Anger and disappointment at not receiving the affection and support you wanted and should have received.- Feeling unloved, inadequate and worthless.- Loneliness, without the support of a network of loving family members.- a misunderstanding of what has happened to you and what you feel.In romantic relationships, women who grew up with absent fathers will try to reproduce the patterns they suffered in their past and will have difficulty forming lasting relationships by going for partners who do not value and respect them.Is it possible to heal the invisible childhood wounds plagued by an emotionally absent father?Fortunately, this manual contains methods to identify and interrupt dysfunctional patterns and cultivate new ones that are useful and tailored to you. It is important to do this for yourself, for your loved ones and, ultimately, for your children.This book is written for you. It will help you!

Intimate partner abuse is sadly a reality for many, even within the church community. The problem is that unless the abuse is physical, for far too long, the church has taught many to turn a blind eye to their experiences. I Married Him, Now What? A Saved Girl's Guide to Surviving Abusive Marriage presents readers with aspects of emotional, financial, and psychological abuse that are often overlooked and/or unseen by those on the outside. As a survivor of narcissistic abuse, author Takhia Gaither discusses how faulty theology, mixed with ignoring the red flags and unstewarded spiritual gifts, almost led her to stay in a situation designed for her demise. However, as an educator and life-long learner, she refused to perish due to a lack of knowledge. As she learned, studied, and even unlearned, she took pen to paper to write the book she needed to read as she was going through. To be used as a learning tool not only for those who find themselves in abusive marriages but for those who seek to counsel them as well, this book provides baseline knowledge for all who read it to become empowered, informed, and enlightened as they may be standing and asking, "Now what?"

Violence against women is now well-established policy in Victoria, following decades of community-based public health and feminist efforts for violence to be viewed by government as a serious social problem affecting women's health and wellbeing. On a national and international scale, violence against women is central to current discussions about development, gender equality, and population health. The World Health Organisation (WHO) calls for holistic, health-based programmes to end violence against women, drawing on social-ecological models that focus on nested levels of context: the individual, interpersonal, community (Bronfenbrenner, 1979). Indeed, the adaption of the ecological model of health represents a significant shift in violence against women policy discourse. Closer to home, for example, the Victorian Right to Respect policy (2009) set out a plan to prevent violence against women, incorporating a new public health approach that pays attention to primary-level prevention activities, that is, strategies to stop violence before it occurs. Such shifts highlight the work of feminist activists and the women's movement that saw violence and health as interconnected issues, and whose determination, energy, and advocacy for women has led to systemic changes in the treatment of violence against women in criminal justice systems and political arenas.

The abuse of men by their female partners is a serious social problem, largely unacknowledged by society. It has the effect of exacerbating a sense of disempowerment which many men experience today. This study explores the nature and extent of abuseagainst men, how they are affected by it, and the social structures which enable the abuse to occur. My hypotheses were that the pain men experience as victims of female abuse is of such a magnitude that they are often unable to bear it, and also that there is a widespreadprejudice against men which works against a just resolution in situations of heterosexual conflict.The origins of the bias against men lie in certain philosophies within feminism, which label a wide variety of historical and cultural developments with the single term 'patriarchy'. This simplistic reduction enables the proponents of these philosophies to condemn men as a whole for the problems of civilization.
