Anno Domini - Kampf der Märtyrer DVD-Box (DVD)
Jesus von Nazareth ist von den Römern gekreuzigt worden. Die Rede von seiner Auferstehung macht die Runde. Unterwegs nach Emmaus begegnen zwei Jünger einem Mann, der offenbar nichts von den aktuellen Ereignissen gehört hat. Erst als der Fremde mit ihnen das Brot teilt, erkennen sie in ihm den auferstandenen Jesus von Nazareth. In Rom läuft der politische Alltag inzwischen ohne den Kaiser ab. Der alte Tiberius hat sich auf die Insel Capri zurückgezogen und denkt nicht an Rückkehr. Caligula, ein Nachfahre des ersten Kaisers Augustus, will mit allen Mitteln an die Macht. Der wachsende Glaube an den auferstandenen Jesus schafft für dessen Anhänger ernste Konflikte mit den Obrigkeiten. Stephanus wird gesteinigt, Petrus der Gotteslästerung beschuldigt. Ein besonders eifriger Verfolger der Christen ist Saulus, der sich jedoch bekehrt und als Paulus zum entschiedenen Bekenner des Auferstandenen wird. Nach Claudius auf dem Thron von Rom gibt es mit Nero wieder einen neuen Imperator.

Mighty Justice: My Life in Civil Rights , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 697min
“Dovey Johnson Roundtree set a new path for women and proved that the vision and perseverance of a single individual can turn the tides of history.” (Michelle Obama) In Mighty Justice, trailblazing African American civil rights attorney Dovey Johnson Roundtree recounts her inspiring life story that speaks movingly and urgently to our racially troubled times. From the streets of Charlotte, North Carolina, to the segregated courtrooms of the nation’s capital; from the male stronghold of the army where she broke gender and color barriers to the pulpits of churches where women had waited for years for the right to minister - in all these places, Dovey Johnson Roundtree sought justice. At a time when African American attorneys had to leave the courthouses to use the bathroom, Roundtree took on Washington’s white legal establishment and prevailed, winning a 1955 landmark bus desegregation case that would help to dismantle the practice of “separate but equal” and shatter Jim Crow laws. Later, she led the vanguard of women ordained to the ministry in the AME Church in 1961, merging her law practice with her ministry to fight for families and children being destroyed by urban violence. Dovey Roundtree passed away in 2018 at the age of 104. Though her achievements were significant and influential, she remains largely unknown to the American public. Mighty Justice corrects the historical record. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bahni Turpin. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/051254/bk_adbl_051254_sample.mp3.

Black Creek Crossing, Hörbuch, Digital, 301min
For most of her young life, 13-year-old Angel Sullivan has been on the outside looking in, enduring the taunts of cruel schoolmates and the angry abuse of a bitter father. Then Angel's family moves to the quaint town of Roundtree, Massachusetts, where a charming home is available, a promising job awaits Angel's unemployed father, and most of all, the chance to make a new start beckons to the shy, hopeful teenager. But when she is shunned by her new classmates, Angel falls deeper into despair. Until she meets Seth Baker (a fellow outcast), and a fateful kinship is forged. It's Seth who tells Angel the unspoken truth about the legacy of murder that hangs over her family's home and the whispered rumors that something supernatural still dwells there. Uncertain whether the stories are true, and desperate to escape the torment of their daily lives, Angel and Seth devote themselves to contacting whatever restless soul haunts the dark recesses of Black Creek Crossing. But once they have begun, there is no turning back. Guided by an anguished and vengeful spirit, they uncover the shocking events and centuries-old horrors that lay buried beneath the placid veneer of Roundtree. And along with the ghastly revelations comes a terrifying power, one that feeds upon the rage of the victimized, turning the basest impulses and most dangerous desires into devastating weapons. Now, the closer Angel and Seth are pushed toward the edge by their tormentors, the deeper they descend into the maelstrom of dark forces they've unleashed...and the more unspeakable the hour of reckoning will be.
