"From young activists at the forefront of the movement to end sexual assault on college campuses, a collection of survivor stories that will connect with students and inform and inspire us all Across the U.S. student activists are exposing a pervasive cover-up of sexual assault on college campuses. Every day more survivors come forward. But other survivors choose not to. We Believe You elevates the stories the headlines about this issue have been missing--more than 30 experiences of trauma, healing and everyday activism, representing a diversity of races, economic and family backgrounds, gender identities, immigration statuses, interests, capacities and loves. More than 1 in 5 women and 5 percent of men are sexually assaulted at college, a shocking status quo that might have stayed largely hidden and unaddressed but for the two authors of We Believe You. In 2013, Annie E. Clark and Andrea L. Pino, then 23 and 20, building on the work of earlier activists, outed themselves as assault survivors and filed a federal complaint against the University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill) for mishandling such crimes; within a month, the U.S. government began to investigate UNC. Within a year, dozens of colleges were under federal investigation. But Clark and Pino rightly see themselves as two among many. Students from every kind of college and university--large and small, public and private, highly selective and less so--are sounding alarms and staking claims to justice by filing complaints, by pressing charges, and by simply living beyond the effects of assault and the betrayals of their schools. A sampling of their voices speak out in this book"--

Emma Johnston (a pseudonym) is an African American resident of Durham, North Carolina, whose son was brutally murdered in 2007. Combining the voices of Emma and her coauthor Simon Partner, a professor at Duke University, the book recounts the postwar history of one of the South's fastest-growing communities through the eyes of one of its most disadvantaged residents. In the process, the book attempts to shed light on the social and economic conditions that led to the murder of Emma's son, one of 25 to 30 people (many of them African American young men) who fall victim to gun violence each year in Durham.

The Survivor Trilogy is a series of three short dramas that explore the trials of burn survivors as they strive to cope with their injuries and relationships during the course of their recovery. The first drama, a monologue called Blue Eyes of the Beholder or The Food Lion Blues, tells the story of a burn survivor who lost his wife in a house fire shortly after a marital spat over striving to get pregnant together. One day in line at the grocery store, this disillusioned accountant is questioned by a curious youth about his appearance, and through this encounter gets to know the boy's mother, a recently separated single woman struggling with her finances during her divorce proceedings. The survivor is entranced by the inquisitive boy and his mother, who both have the radiant blue eyes of his deceased spouse. In the course of assisting this woman in resurrecting her financial situation as she distances herself from her estranged husband, the two fall in love, and life renews itself. The second drama, Princess or The Ultra Joy of Doin' Dishes, captures the conversation of a female burn survivor and her husband after a dinner party at their new home with another couple in the neighborhood. The woman, a successful professional who met her spouse after she had been injured, was eager to discuss how she felt awkward and self-conscious while engaging with the handsome young couple. Her husband is amorous and attentive, and the two lovers take time to process the experience and their reaction to this newly born Four Seasons dinner group while doing the dishes in the kitchen. In the third drama called The Rising or Taking the Long Way to the Open Eye Cafe, a burn survivor meets the firefighter who saved him in the course of a therapy session years after he was rescued from the flames. The two men openly share their feelings and histories together, discussing how their personal experiences with tragedy had brought them to where they find themselves at the moment. The journey of the burn survivor leads away from anger and resentment to a new path in life. A bond between the two men is formed as they trace their lives away from the flames and discover how tragedy and heroism in former years have brought their lives together

An Army medic and Silver Star recipient shares a visceral firsthand account of D-Day in this acclaimed, New York Times bestselling WWII memoir. At five a.m. on June 6, 1944, U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Ray Lambert stood on the deck of a troopship off the coast of Normandy, France, awaiting the signal to board the landing craft that would take him and so many others to meet their fate on Omaha Beach. Spotting his brother Bill, who served beside him throughout the war, they exchanged promises to take care of their families if one of them didn’t make it. Less than five hours later, after saving dozens of lives and being wounded at least three separate times, Ray would lose consciousness in the shallow water of the beach under heavy fire. He would wake on the deck of a landing ship to find his battered brother clinging to life next to him. Every Man a Hero is the unforgettable story not only of what happened in the incredible and desperate hours on Omaha Beach, but of the bravery and courage that preceded them, throughout the Second World War—from the sands of Africa, through the treacherous mountain passes of Sicily, and beyond to the greatest military victory the world has ever known.
