Project Blue Book: The Top Secret UFO Files That Revealed a Government Cover-Up
$22.95Quick ViewThroughout the 1950s and 1960s, while publicly dismissing the existence of UFOs, the United States Air Force was engaged in a secret program for evaluating every report of unidentified flying objects. Under the code name, Project Blue Book, the Air Force analyzed over 13,000 incidents. The goal of this enterprise was threefold: To determine the cause for each UFO sighting, to assess the security threat for each incident, and to determine how the United States could obtain or create the technology used by UFOs.
This book, based on secret files obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, includes accounts of seven of the most important USAF enquiries– among them the story of the nights the White House was buzzed by UFOs, the mystery of the Lubbock Lights, the full story of Captain Mantell–Ufology’s first martyr, and the startling conversion of the prominent astronomer, J. Alan Hynek from UFO skeptic to believer.
This is startling and fascinating book that uncovers not only the anatomy of a government cover-up, but also provides stark and chilling evidence that we are not alone. It is all here, government documents, the testimony of scientists, the military, pilots and citizens all over the country who have witnessed UFOS.

Racism: THE REAL PANDEMIC: The origins of racism to present day, the biggest virus to fight. From human hierarchy to black pow
$19.95Quick ViewRacism is a topic that in today’s hyper-globalized world, which brings people who are very different from each other every day, in terms of ethnicity, culture, religion and customs, should not even be discussed anymore: it should be considered wrong. Yet we still know today that the other, the different, frightens us and that we prefer to ignore differences if we perceive them as threats. But where does racism come from? Ideologically, from the fear of the other, and it has its own history, its own precise evolution: knowing it means understanding, and understanding allows us not to stop at the surface of this issue where everyone – why not admit it? – we sometimes risk slipping. There are many films and books on this subject, many of which you will be familiar with. Let’s start with a reflection.
