Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although she is a child, Lottie Parsons has already grown to understand hardship. As one of the youngest members of a poor African American family working a farm owned by a wealthy landowner in Willow Creek, Georgia, Lottie picks beans under the hot sun, shells peas on the front porch, and carefully observes her mother as she approaches every hardship with pride, prayer, and a focus on family values. Although Lottie's family usually has more monthly bills than income, they still manage to enjoy wonderful meals prepared by her mother, who makes tasty pots of ham hocks, green beans, and red potatoes-with pound cake for dessert. As Lottie goes about her days on the farm, she aspires to become a doctor and gathers strength to pursue her dreams from the role models around her, including her mother, her aunt Ella, and her grandmother, Nana Rose. But it is not long before Lottie soon realizes that nothing lasts forever-even in Willow Creek. From Whence We Came shares the compassionate, historical tale of a southern African American family as they attempt to overcome challenges and adjust as life takes them in a new direction.

Book excerpt: ROOTS FROM WHENCE WE CAME, (love, devotion and tender thoughts) is a collection of poems and writings by Elsie Buscher Diemer, two of her children and a great-granddaughter. Elsies contributions began during her high school years in the early 1920 ́s and continued throughout the rest of her life untill she passed away in 1970. Her first born, Paul J. Diemer and second child, Eleanor Diemer Sidley, likewise began their writings during their high school years. Their writings cover the era from the earliest 1950 ́s til the present 2008. Elsie’s great-granddaughter, Jenna Burnett started putting her thoughts in writing during her preteen years. This collection encompasses the thoughts, beliefs and desires of these four authors. At times you find nostalgia, humor, faith and perhaps a little despair throughout these pages. There is also some history lessons on the building of a community and the making of a viable family farm. Some fiction enters in with Paul’s stories of the mountain man, Bill Starkey, which includes some Indian lore. We hope this book holds your attention and, perhaps, kindle a desire to put your own thoughts and feelings to pen and paper.

Book excerpt: As we reach the later years of life, I am sure all of us have experienced the thought, If I could do it over again. You know the feeling ... if only I had ... This realization toward the end of our lives, when we get a clear look at what our life has been, or could have been, with different decisions. The crystal ball shows us only the road behind with 20/20 vision. As is certainly my case. I will recite my life in the first person, narrated as it actually happened. In the ensuing words and story, I will lay out the road my life has taken. It had sadness, happiness, disappointments, exhilarations, success, and failure. Plainly speaking ... the ups and downs most lives have, although mine have been more varied, with touches of success and notoriety, than most ... It has taken me from an impoverished family of a single mother and five children in the depths of the Great Depression of the ’30s in Oklahoma. This single mother raised three to serve in the military during WWII, two to go to the University of Oklahoma, one to have some success as an actor in Hollywood in television and movies.
Book Synopsis From Whence They Came: Origins of the Missionary Baptists in Southwest Georgia, 1865-1900 by : Warren C. Hope
Download or read book From Whence They Came: Origins of the Missionary Baptists in Southwest Georgia, 1865-1900 written by Warren C. Hope and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-08-02 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spiritual realm has been the resort of countless Blacks during their sojourn in America. Black Missionary Baptists history blossomed in Reconstruction and matured in Jim Crow Southern society. However, research on Black Baptists at the regional and local levels has been largely neglected. In obscurity are pioneers who blazed a trail of faith in God and set in motion what Carter G. Woodson and others have called the Negro Church. What began many years ago as their religious experience lives on today, but the stories of their time have not been told. Because religion has been a significant influence on Black people it is important to reconstruct and preserve local and regional religious history. Knowledge of the past is vital to understanding the present. William Montgomery, Under Their Own Vine And Fig Tree: The African American Church in the South, 1865-1900, asserted that this time frame deserved more scholarly attention. Southwest Georgia is fertile ground for Black religious history. Not since W. E. B. Du Bois The Black Church, has there been a focus on Blacks and religion in the region. This book resurrects from invisibilitys custody Blacks embrace of Christianity in local and regional settings. Its contents explore denomination identity formation and religion as a means of uplift and advancement in the microcosm of Southwest Georgia. Through it all, Black Baptist ministers were pivotal actors in the religious drama. Although myths and stereotypes about Black ministers of the past abound, they, nevertheless, led the way down freedom road. This book tells of Black preachers of the past, their efforts to uplift and advance the race, and reveals the depth of their creativity, that was repeatedly demonstrated in the founding of local churches and associations that are vibrant today.

Book excerpt: Elected in 1960 as the 35th President of the USA, John Fitzgerald Kennedy remains to this day the office’s youngest incumbent and he was its first Roman Catholic. His term in office was short, but arguably no US President has inspired more people around the globe than JFK. Even today, for generations born decades after his death, President Kennedy’s legacy has an enduring appeal. This insightful book contains specially commissioned pieces by a range of respected academic and political figures, including former Obama speechwriter, Cody Kennan, the President of the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights organisation, Kerry Kennedy, and former senior adviser to Bernie Sanders, Tad Devine. With the presidency of Joe Biden seeing a renewed focus on broader themes within Irish, American and global politics, From Whence I Came is a fascinating and timely collection that offers a fresh perspective on the Kennedy legacy and the politics of Ireland and the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Money is nothing more than what is commonly exchanged for goods or services, so why has understanding it become so complicated? In Money, renowned economist John Kenneth Galbraith cuts through the confusions surrounding the subject to present a compelling and accessible account of a topic that affects us all. He tells the fascinating story of money, the key factors that shaped its development, and the lessons that can be learned from its history. He describes the creation and evolution of monetary systems and explains how finance, credit, and banks work in the global economy. Galbraith also shows that, when it comes to money, nothing is truly new—least of all inflation and fraud.

Download or read book Homo Sapiens written by Nathan Shasho and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I believe human evolution is in its infancy. We were hunter-gathers before speech development; we probably experienced ourselves as another species. Since we were predators and a food source for other predators, we were a rung on the food chain. We contributed to the balance and the symbiosis of nature. With the latest edition of the cerebral cortex came speech, the written word, and self-awareness. It also led to the fact that we 'forgot' that we were just other mammals and experienced ourselves as separate entities and not an animal. With the evolution of our intelligence came what we refer to as civilization. With that intelligence, we developed weapons and hunting skills to become the dominant predator on the planet. In the 21st century, nothing has changed that much. We still seem to act and behave outside of the natural world despite our scientific knowledge. It is understandable since we are the only species with self-awareness. We do not contribute to the symbiosis of the food chain and only disturb and destroy the symbiosis of the natural world. Evolutionary science has linked us to our closest DNA relative and great ape primate. The behavior of this primate eerily resembles the history of human behavior. I believe that Homo sapiens have inherited the DNA of our closest cousins, the chimpanzee, and at least in part explains the extremely aggressive territorial behavior that humans possess. This is a book about how we got to now.
