Book excerpt: In the midst of the cold, wicked, and windy streets of Chicago, Deontay Miller and his right hand man, Chris, start out as petty hustlers in Cabrini Green housing projects one of the most notorious projects in America. (Home of TV’s own: Good Times, Cooly High, and Candy man just to name a few...). But once Doughboy, Chris cousin, turns them on to the drug game they apprehensively make the transition from stealing and selling bikes, to copping weight and distributing it in hand to hand transactions. Two years after being introduced to “The game” Deontay is now checking just as much bread as some of the older heads. But unfortunately for Deontay in the depts of the slums getting a little money often tends to make you a target, and Deontay is no exception. After refusing to be extorted by letting Black, the neighborhood bully “Hold something” a mere altercation escalades to Black making an attempt to Deontay’s life later on that night. But luckily Deontay escapes the hail of gun fire unscaved... The next day in broad daylight, Deontay murders Black in cold blood. This bold barbaric act captured the respect of his peers, causing Deontay’s name to ring throughout the streets.
Book Synopsis The Circle of the Snake by : Grafton Tanner
Download or read book The Circle of the Snake written by Grafton Tanner and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-11 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shocked by 9/11, the Great Recession, digital anxiety, and ecological collapse, the West suffers from nostalgia. People everywhere yearn for a utopian version of the past that never existed. Desperate for relief, many long to escape from the present. Some will stop at nothing to achieve it. In his essential new book, Grafton Tanner, author of Babbling Corpse: Vaporwave and the Commodification of Ghosts, argues that our nostalgia today is partly a consequence of the attention economy. At a time when historical literacy is crucial, and old prejudices are percolating into the present, Big Tech’s predictive algorithms are locking us into nostalgic feedback loops. The result is a precarious society with its gaze fixed on the good old days. Spanning from the ancient Sophists to Black Mirror, The Circle of the Snake is at once a reckoning with the myth of digital utopia and an incisive analysis of nostalgia as a weapon to spread fascism.

Download or read book Babbling Corpse written by Grafton Tanner and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-24 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the age of global capitalism, vaporwave celebrates and undermines the electronic ghosts haunting the nostalgia industry. Ours is a time of ghosts in machines, killing meaning and exposing the gaps inherent in the electronic media that pervade our lives. Vaporwave is an infant musical micro-genre that foregrounds the horror of electronic media's ability to appear - as media theorist Jeffrey Sconce terms it - "haunted." Experimental musicians such as INTERNET CLUB and MACINTOSH PLUS manipulate Muzak and commercial music to undermine the commodification of nostalgia in the age of global capitalism while accentuating the uncanny properties of electronic music production. Babbling Corpse reveals vaporwave's many intersections with politics, media theory, and our present fascination with uncanny, co(s)mic horror. The book is aimed at those interested in global capitalism's effect on art, musical raids on mainstream "indie" and popular music, and anyone intrigued by the changing relationship between art and commerce.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What is the spell for?" Miranda asked curiously, stepping close beside him to squeeze through the first ring of trees. She didn't know of any goblin spells that used flowers unless they were crushed like herbs. "Do you really want to know?" murmured the elf absently, looking up at the dark crowns of the ancient oaks. "Yes," she said. She had always liked magic. He glanced back down at her then. "It's for you," he said. And the instant they passed the great trunks, his hand closed over her wrist. The powerful final volume of the Hollow Kingdom Trilogy Miranda has waited her whole life to come home to the goblin kingdom, but she never imagined she'd feel so alone there. Her beloved Marak, the center of her world since childhood, has reached the end of his reign. But Marak didn't raise a coward. Miranda needs all her courage when a mysterious elf lord takes her prisoner, reigniting an age-old battle. Caught between two hostile races, she becomes their greatest reason for war—and their only hope for a future. In this final volume of the Hollow Kingdom Trilogy, Clare B. Dunkle draws readers deep into her magical realm for one last incredible story.

It's reference for anyone experiencing any type of organized stalking. If you or someone you know is a victim then this manual was written for you. Only through education can we stop these insidious government activities and black projects. "Most people in the world do not care to be anarchists nor revolutionists and neither do I. However, sometimes our lots in life choose us rather than we choose our lots in life. So, when someone wants to make that choice for us, we must act. The system is broken - bent on ruling the world and controlling the population. It's up to us to free ourselves. - Bobby T

Download or read book Snake Circle written by Roberta Sykes and published by Allen & Unwin. This book was released on 2000-06-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Snake Circle is the final book of Roberta Sykes' Snake Dreaming trilogy. Snake Circle draws the remarkable Snake Dreaming trilogy to a close as we accompany Sykes on the final stage of her journey - this time to Harvard University. It is a vivid recounting of Sykes' experience as the first Australian Black to graduate with a doctorate, and of her growing confidence as she thrives in the new environment of Harvard. It also passionately tells of her relationships with those she loves, such as MumShirl and her children, and the ongoing run-ins she has with the bureaucracy and politicians along the way. A moving and exuberant conclusion to a story that began as a tale of brutalisation. WHAT THE CRITICS SAID ABOUT SNAKE CRADLE AND SNAKE DANCING: 'Snake Cradle and Snake Dancing are enough to suggest that Sykes' three-volume memoir may well become an Australian classic.' - Sun-Herald 'Once begun, readers should be made aware that Snake Dancing is the kind of book which tugs at you to read it quickly. Once read, it is sure to stay long with us.' - Canberra Times 'It is a testament to the writing as much as to her life that the reader becomes so immersed in the story of Roberta Sykes. It is a story every Australian should read.' - Anne Summers, The Age 'Roberta. that you not only survived but triumphed is an incredible tribute to you and the human spirit.' - David Suzuki 'Reading Roberta Sykes is to be engaged by a great tale and by an uncompromisingly fine writer.' - Janine Burke, The Age

Download or read book The Accursed written by Joyce Carol Oates and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major historical novel from "one of the great artistic forces of our time" (The Nation)—an eerie, unforgettable story of possession, power, and loss in early-twentieth-century Princeton, a cultural crossroads of the powerful and the damned Princeton, New Jersey, at the turn of the twentieth century: a tranquil place to raise a family, a genteel town for genteel souls. But something dark and dangerous lurks at the edges of the town, corrupting and infecting its residents. Vampires and ghosts haunt the dreams of the innocent. A powerful curse besets the elite families of Princeton; their daughters begin disappearing. A young bride on the verge of the altar is seduced and abducted by a dangerously compelling man–a shape-shifting, vaguely European prince who might just be the devil, and who spreads his curse upon a richly deserving community of white Anglo-Saxon privilege. And in the Pine Barrens that border the town, a lush and terrifying underworld opens up. When the bride's brother sets out against all odds to find her, his path will cross those of Princeton's most formidable people, from Grover Cleveland, fresh out of his second term in the White House and retired to town for a quieter life, to soon-to-be commander in chief Woodrow Wilson, president of the university and a complex individual obsessed to the point of madness with his need to retain power; from the young Socialist idealist Upton Sinclair to his charismatic comrade Jack London, and the most famous writer of the era, Samuel Clemens/Mark Twain–all plagued by "accursed" visions. An utterly fresh work from Oates, The Accursed marks new territory for the masterful writer. Narrated with her unmistakable psychological insight, it combines beautifully transporting historical detail with chilling supernatural elements to stunning effect.
