The Last Girl

New York Times Editors' Choice In this intimate memoir of survival, a former captive of the Islamic State tells her harrowing and ultimately inspiring story. Nadia Murad was born and raised in Kocho, a small village of farmers and shepherds in northern Iraq. A member of the Yazidi community, she and her brothers and sisters lived a quiet life. Nadia had dreams of becoming a history teacher or opening her own beauty salon. On August 15th, 2014, when Nadia was just twenty-one years old, this life ended. Islamic State militants massacred the people of her village, executing men who refused to convert to Islam and women too old to become sex slaves. Six of Nadia's brothers were killed, and her mother soon after, their bodies swept into mass graves. Nadia was taken to Mosul and forced, along with thousands of other Yazidi girls, into the ISIS slave trade. Nadia would be held captive by several militants and repeatedly raped and beaten. Finally, she managed a narrow escape through the streets of Mosul, finding shelter in the home of a Sunni Muslim family whose eldest son risked his life to smuggle her to safety. Today, Nadia's story--as a witness to the Islamic State's brutality, a survivor of rape, a refugee, a Yazidi--has forced the world to pay attention to the ongoing genocide in Iraq. It is a call to action, a testament to the human will to survive, and a love letter to a lost country, a fragile community, and a family torn apart by war.

Working in Public

Älskade Pengar

När du är stressad är din reptilhjärna aktiverad. Det gäller all stress. Även ekonomisk stress. När reptilhjärnan är aktiverad fattar du lika bra beslut som när du är alkoholpåverkad. Inte särskilt bra beslut med andra ord. Det är problem nummer ett. Problem nummer två är att din ekonomiska stress är så pass normaliserad att du inte alltid ser den eller ifrågasätter den. Om du lägger märke till din ekonomiska stress är det förmodligen för att reaktionen är väldigt kraftig, och så tänker du, Det är så här DET är, alltså att pengar är ett nödvändigt ont för alla, eller så tänker du, Det är så här JAG är. Men inget av det är sant. Ekonomisk stress går att identifiera på ett djupare plan och därmed bearbeta och förändra. Precis som vilken stress som helst. Goda nyheter, inte sant? Nu är det dags att släppa taget om reptilhjärnan och bli ekonomiskt emotionellt intelligent. Älskade Pengar , din handbok i ekonomisk emotionell intelligens är en samling reflektioner och erfarenheter efter över tusen samtal om pengar med olika personer. Författaren delar med sig av personliga anekdoter i utforskandet av den egna relationen till pengar. Förhoppningen är att bjuda in till nya tankar och samtal om ett ämne som fortfarande är tabu. Vad är pengar egentligen och hur mycket kan den subjektiva upplevelsen av ekonomin förändras genom nyfikenhet och empati?
