Author: Guoli Chen, Jianggan Li
Narrator: David Lee Huynh

In the last few years, we have seen a meteoric rise of Chinese tech companies across the world. Alibaba stock price movements unnerved investors globally, venture capitalists searched for the next Meituan or Pinduoduo in Southeast Asia and Latin America, and of course, Tik Tok, the most popular content platform in the world today, originated from China. The founders of such companies are typically credited with the "tenacity to rough it out" and the "vision to take their companies to new heights." However, the same can be said about Silicon Valley founders, or any successful entrepreneur.

Narrator: Nathan Agin, Jonathan Beville, Nancy Bober, Gisela Chipe, Nicky Endres, James Fouhey, Philip Hernandez, Cary Hite, Eric Jason Martin, Kamali Minter, Karen Murray, Jose T. Nateras, Kiiri Sandy

A shocking, groundbreaking oral history of the infamous Rikers jail complex and an unflinching portrait of injustice and resilience told by the people whose lives have been forever altered by it. What happens when you pack almost a dozen jails, bulging at the seams with society's cast-offs, onto a spit of landfill purposefully hidden from public view? Prize-winning journalists Graham Rayman and Reuven Blau have spent two years interviewing more than 130 people comprising a broad cross section of lives touched by New York City's Rikers Island prison complex-from incarcerated people and their relatives, to officers, lawyers, and commissioners, with stories spanning the 1970s to the present day. The portrait that emerges calls into question the very nature of justice in America. Offering a 360-degree view inside the country's largest detention complex, the deeply personal accounts-featured here for the first time-take listeners on a harrowing journey into every corner of Rikers, a failed society unto itself that reflects society's failings as a whole.

Qualified: Finding Your Voice, Leading with Character, and Empowering Others (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0B7Z2KG7Y | 2023 | 6 hours and 50 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 182 MB
Author: Mia Love
Narrator: Mia Love, Jamie Renell

This memoir from the first Black Republican congresswoman in America shows listeners how to own their stories, find their voices, and lead with character as they empower others to do the same. For so long, women-and Black women in particular-have been taught that they must have a stellar background, the highest degree of education, and the strongest resumé imaginable to earn their place in a society historically dominated by white men. As a result, women have found themselves plagued with anxiety and self-doubt and have felt constricted by this limiting belief of qualification by achievement and the necessity of sporting a flawless track record. These false assumptions have discouraged women from pursuing positions of power and influence for the betterment of their communities, leading to underrepresentation in our institutions and the tragedy of wasted potential.
