Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As of May 2013, this poem of affirmation has been dedicated to each Horizons Atlanta Clark Atlanta University Young Scholar. During morning gatherings, mid-day, and in closing Excel-ebrations our Young Scholars enthusiastically participate in the “call response” recitation of “I Am Somebody Special!” These are the moments when we discuss and embrace personal experiences of gratitude, empathy, grit, and determination. Our “call response” recitation creates and confirms one’s personal image as a 21st century scholar. Today I dedicate this poem of affirmation to the Young Scholars of Horizons Atlanta and Horizons National as a springboard for discussing friendships, trusting relationships, purpose, and a sense of belonging. Our children are society’s passport to the future. I salute each teacher, each parent, each grandparent, and each community partner who share my “Let’s Do Something” vision of supporting 21st century heroes and she-roes!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are few figures and leaders of recent American history of greater social and political consequence than Jesse Jackson, and few more relevant for America's current political climate. In the 1960s, Jackson served as a close aide to Dr. Martin Luther King, meeting him on the notorious march to legitimate the American democratic system in Selma. He was there on the day of King's assassination, and continued his political legacy, inspiring a generation of black and Latino politicians and activists, founding the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition, and helping to make the Democratic Party more multicultural and progressive with his historic runs for the presidency in the 1980s. In I Am Somebody, David Masciotra argues that Jackson's legacy must be rehabilitated in the history of American politics. Masciotra has had personal access to Jackson for several years, conducting over 100 interviews with the man himself, as well as interviews with a wide variety of elected officials and activists who Jackson has inspired and influenced. It also takes readers inside Jackson's negotiations for the release of hostages and political prisoners in Cuba, Iraq, and several other countries. As Democratic politics sees a return to radicalism and the rise of a new generation of committed advocates of racial and economic justice, I Am Somebody: Why Jesse Jackson Matters is a critical book for understanding where America in the 21st Century has come from and where it is going. Featuring a foreword by Michael Eric Dyson.

Book excerpt: In this poignant and heart wrenching true story, Regina Louise recounts her childhood search for connection in the face of abuse, neglect, and rejection. What happens to a child when her own parents reject her and sit idly by as others abuse her? In this poignant, heart wrenching debut work, Regina Louise recounts her childhood search for someone to feel connected to. A mother she has never known--but long fantasized about-- deposited her and her half sister at the same group home that she herself fled years before. When another resident beats Regina so badly that she can barely move, she knows that she must leave this terrible place-the only home she knows. Thus begins Regina's fight to survive, utterly alone at the age of 10. A stint living with her mother and her abusive boyfriend is followed by a stay with her father's lily white wife and daughters, who ignore her before turning to abuse and ultimately kicking her out of the house. Regina then tries everything in her search for someone to care for her and to care about, from taking herself to jail to escaping countless foster homes to be near her beloved counselor. Written in her distinctive and unique voice, Regina's story offers an in-depth look at the life of a child who no one wanted. From her initial flight to her eventual discovery of love, your heart will go out to Regina's younger self, and you'll cheer her on as she struggles to be Somebody's Someone.

Book excerpt: Early on, Jerry Williams learned that he had he ability to fix and repair almost anything-even if it meant inventing something to make life work a little better and easier. From cars to houses, Jerry never met a challenge he couldn't master. He built a career as the go-to guy in his rural African-American community. Now, in a style "plain and simple so everyone can read it," Jerry offers up personal opinions about America, covering subjects as varied as race, education, literacy, money, and overcoming impediments, from within and without. Reacting strongly to a racist statement he once read, that poor people can't read, Jerry looks closely at what people can do to change their perceptions. While he encourages young and old alike to be strong and resolute, he strongly urges everyone to set aside their antagonisms and rage. What we must do, Jerry says, is to stop being fixated on the divide between black and white, but instead see each other as fellow human beings so that in the end all of us can come together. And if we can do that, the ever-optimistic Jerry sees a very bright future for our nation. ABOUT THE AUTHORJerry Williams is a self-taught electrician, diesel mechanic, auto mechanic, small engine expert, and carpenter. He is also the inventor of several devices, including a pullout extension cord, luggage beeper, hologram, and device to check the water level for a Christmas tree. Jerry lives in South Carolina.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beloved stage and screen actor Danny Aiello’s big-hearted memoir reveals a man of passion, integrity, and guts—and lays bare one of the most unlikely success stories ever told. Danny Aiello admits that he backed into his acting career by mistake. That’s easy to see when you begin at the beginning: raised by his loving and fiercely resilient mother in the tenements of Manhattan and the South Bronx, and forever haunted by the death of his infant brother, Danny struggled early on to define who he was and who he could be. It wasn’t until he took to the stage in the wee hours to belt out standards that Danny Aiello found his voice and his purpose: he was born to act. Performing in converted churches and touring companies led to supporting roles in such films as The Godfather: Part II and Moonstruck, and an Oscar nomination for his role as the embattled Salvatore in Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing. For a guy who had never set foot in an acting class, this was supreme validation for being an outsider who followed his heart. In a raw and real chronicle of his gritty urban past, Danny Aiello looks back with appreciation, amusement, and frank disbelief at his unconventional road to success. He offers candid observations on working with luminary directors Francis Ford Coppola, Woody Allen, and Robert Altman, among others, and a vast roster of actors, including Robert De Niro, Paul Newman, Madonna, Cher, and Lauren Bacall. He opens up about friends he loved, friends he lost, and the professional relationships that weren’t meant to be. Above all, Danny Aiello imparts a life lesson straight out of his own experience to anyone who’s ever felt like an outsider: It’s never too late to become who you want to be, to find happiness and fulfillment, and to embrace the winding road to get there.

Book excerpt: Joyce A. Council, a single mother of four, became an entrepreneur after retiring as a Double Diamond sales professional. She did this to make a difference in people's lives. She found her niche in the financial industry and began the mission of teaching people the principles of "not just counting their money, but in making their money count." She has a heart for serving others and often volunteers her time by helping young adults who were once in foster care make strategic lifestyle transitions. A thought-provoking conversationalist, Joyce loves to express her deeper, innermost thoughts in writing. She spent her childhood helping to care for her younger siblings. Seeing the uniqueness in each of her 14 brothers and sisters caused her to search for her own uniqueness. Out of love and understanding of people's desire to find purpose in life, she wrote Who Are You? I am____. It is her intention to provide spiritual and emotional tools that will allow an individual to look deep beneath the surface of who people tend to identify themselves as - to help them see that there is more than meets the eye. "I am Okay, You are Okay, and the Best is Yet to Come!" - Joyce A. Council

Book excerpt: Thunder in the Wind is a historical novel concerning the assimilation reservation American Indians underwent at the turn of the twentieth century. The first part of the work describes how the Assiniboine, and one family in particular, deal with the onslaught of a society that not only was technologically superior, but also thought itself so morally superior it treats the tribe as if it was a hopeless dependent. The second part follows the exploits of the main character as he tries to unite the Plains, Great Basin, and Southwestern tribes in revolt, not to defeat the whites, but to scare them so badly they would restore to the Indians the selfhood they had stolen. Miskaw deals with the same trials Tecumseh experienced early in the previous century while uniting the tribes east of the Mississippi and, in dealing with them learns several truths about himself and the human condition. If not for hubris, the outcome of his endeavor may have been dramatically different.
