- When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows... : Common Knowledge and the Mysteries of Money, Power, and Everyday Life. by Pinker, Steven.;
'When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows' is a brilliantly insightful work that explains how we think about each others thoughts about each others thoughts, ad infinitum. It sounds impossible, but Steven Pinker shows that we do it all the time. This awareness, which we experience as something that is public or out there, is called common knowledge, and it has a momentous impact on our social, political, and economic lives.

- Muslim in America. by Khan, Deeyah,film director.; Women Make Movies (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by Women Make Movies in 2020.Since 2015, anti-Muslim hate groups, conspiracy theories and hate crimes have risen in the United States. In this Peabody Award-winning exposé, Deeyah Khan explores the connections between this increase in hate-driven incidents and state-endorsed racism and investigates what it's like to be Muslim in a country where many people feel they don’t belong. Filmed before and during the coronavirus pandemic and while events following the death of George Floyd unfolded around her in America, Khan meets ordinary Muslims whose lives have been shattered by violence and intolerance, activists trying to combat a rising tide of hatred, armed militia who believe Islam is infiltrating the U.S., and lawmakers who have themselves been the target of vitriolic rhetoric, such as Minnesota congresswoman Ilhan Omar.Deploying her uniquely intimate filming style, Deeyah seeks to get to the heart of the Muslim experience - providing a vivid insight into the experiences of alienation, of rejection, and the daily struggles of keeping faith in both Islam and the American Dream.Mode of access: World Wide Web.- Subjects: Documentary films.; Political science.; Social sciences.; Enthnology.; History, Modern.; Americans.; Foreign study.; Sociology.; Documentary films.; Ethnicity.; Current affairs.; United States--Politics and government.; History.; Politicians.; Political participation.; Racism.; Social problems.; Discrimination.; Muslims.; Hate crimes.;
