The Three Dimensions of Freedom

Billy Bragg | 4.38

At a time when opinion trumps facts and truth is treated as nothing more than another perspective, free speech has become a battleground. While authoritarians and algorithms threaten democracy, we argue over who has the right to speak.

To protect ourselves from encroaching tyranny, we must look beyond this one-dimensional notion of what it means to be free and, by reconnecting liberty to equality and accountability, restore the individual agency engendered by the three dimensions of freedom. less

Jeremy CorbynDelighted to join @BillyBragg as he launches his new book The Three Dimensions of Freedom. A fascinating read and he's right to say real freedom is only possible with liberty, equality, and accountability. https://t.co/WtU68VcF6H (Source)

Beyond a Boundary - Caribbean College Edition

CLR James with an Introduction by Hilary Beckles | 4.58

Part memoir of a West Indian boyhood, part celebration of the game of cricket, this self-portrait of a life spent playing, watching and writing about the game, tells us of its psychology and aesthetics, players the author knew, and the issues of class, race and politics surrounding it. less
