Book Synopsis Hustler's Dreams, Federal Nightmares by : Amir Sanchez
Download or read book Hustler's Dreams, Federal Nightmares written by Amir Sanchez and published by Urban Soul. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The game once had three major rules that were never to be broken or compromised, regardless of how serious things got in one's life. Death before dishonor was more than just a code; it was the law of the streets, written in the blood of the OGs who killed and died upholding it. Back then, there were many rewards for those who followed the codes. On the other hand, the penalty was death for anyone who violated the laws, and anybody close to him. At the very least, that person would be blackballed from the hood and any illegal street ventures. Clearly the game as we once knew it has been changed by today's hustlers, gangsters, and crooks. Most of them have strayed far from the script. The majority of them would rather save their asses than save face. They would sooner live with shame and disgrace than die with honor and respect. With the current status of the game and the sheisty individuals who are playing it, is there anyone who will honor the past and acknowledge the rules of the game for what they used to be? A newcomer to the urban lit scene, Amir Sanchez delivers a realistic, gripping story of life on the streets, where hustlers still rule, but honor and loyalty have taken on new meaning.

Book Synopsis A Dream or A Nightmare by : Armando Ramirez
Download or read book A Dream or A Nightmare written by Armando Ramirez and published by Armando Ramirez. This book was released on 2021-03-13 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pages of this book will discuss a little bit about the reasons for migration and its consequences. The questions are raised and analyzed what is what motivates migrants to leave their land, family, friends, and in many cases possessions which are often poorly sold (losses) to afford the expenses of the trip. It is not intended at all to propose a solution to this phenomenon or problem as some describe it, but to capture in a general way the panorama of migrants, their experiences and vicissitudes, mainly in America, and to motivate a little to awareness on this situation that generates this so-called “American Dream” which for most people in too many cases ends in a nightmare. The hardships and experiences suffered by migrants in general. It should be clarified that other books or articles may have already been written addressing this topic, however, I have not read anyone about it, only some articles and also I know of this subject by what it is seen in the news and what I lived on my own. Here are described some specific stories and cases in which this so-called “American Dream" did not end as it was figured out by those who experienced it. In addition to the statistical data provided in this book for which a full research work has been done through different websites, the stories of those who and for whom this so-called dream became a nightmare or simply the dream ended in its own beginning, that is, it did not even begin. Success stories are also told, the book intends to point what has been called “dream” from two sides or two points of view, although it should be clarified that originally it was not conceived to raise it that way, however, it would be unfair to raise only the negative side, as also focusing only on the “positive” side (if we can call it so). So, the reader will have an overview of this phenomenon and then form his own concept and draw his own conclusions. By clarification, this book emphasizes the stories of immigrants for which this so-called dream was not only possible, but it even went beyond their expectations, so that this so-called "dream" could be seen in these two ways. It is now necessary to be clear that North Americans like immigrants have their own dreams. It is a fact that all human beings are dreamers, whether we are white, mixed or natives Americans, whether Asian, European, African, etc. We all dream of a better tomorrow, of a better life, of well-being, with financial comfort, and with happiness for us and ours. Dreaming is inherent to the human being. In the end, the reader will find a reflection on this topic, on this so-called «American Dream». However, it is necessary to clarify that this is neither a book for nor against migration, nor is it neither for nor against this so-called "American Dream", since, although in many cases the purpose was not achieved, it is also true that in more than one case, those who emigrated, were able to achieve their purpose, or their “dreams”. If you are willing to fulfill this “dream”, you must also be willing to pay the cost of making it true. It is about giving the elements to the reader to evaluate on their own whether it is worth the risk, knowing and being aware that everything in this life has a price, but no dream is worth it if the result is hardship, sadness, loneliness, high sacrifices and in the worst case, death. It may be as a bit of advice, a warning to those who have not yet emigrated and to those who have already done so, so that they may reflect on whether effort or sacrifice was worth it.
Book Synopsis The Dream & the Nightmare by : Mryon Magnet
Download or read book The Dream & the Nightmare written by Mryon Magnet and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2000-02-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myron Magnet’s The Dream and the Nightmare argues that the radical transformation of American culture that took place in the 1960s brought today’s underclass—overwhelmingly urban, dismayingly minority—into existence. Lifestyle experimentation among the white middle class produced often catastrophic changes in attitudes toward marriage and parenting, the work ethic and dependency in those at the bottom of the social ladder, and closed down their exits to the middle class. Texas Governor George W. Bush’s presidential campaign has highlighted the continuing importance of The Dream and the Nightmare. Bush read the book before his first campaign for governor in 1994, and, when he finally met Magnet in 1998, he acknowledged his debt to this work. Karl Rove, Bush’s principal political adviser, cites it as a road map to the governor’s philosophy of “compassionate conservatism.
Book Synopsis American Dreams, American Nightmares by : Daniel Horowitz
Download or read book American Dreams, American Nightmares written by Daniel Horowitz and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2022-11-22 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two decades punctuated by the financial crisis of the Great Recession and the public health crisis of COVID-19 have powerfully reshaped housing in America. By integrating social, economic, intellectual, and cultural histories, this illuminating work shows how powerful forces have both reflected and catalyzed shifts in the way Americans conceptualize what a house is for, in an era that has laid bare the larger structures and inequities of the economy. Daniel Horowitz casts an expansive net over a wide range of materials and sources. He shows how journalists and anthropologists have explored the impact of global economic forces on housing while filmmakers have depicted the home as a theater where danger lurks as elites gamble with the fates of the less fortunate. Real estate workshops and popular TV networks like HGTV teach home buyers how to flip—or flop—while online platforms like Airbnb make it possible to play house in someone else's home. And as the COVID pandemic took hold, many who had never imagined living out every moment at home found themselves cocooned there thanks to corporations like Amazon, Zoom, and Netflix.

Book Synopsis American Dreams, American Nightmares by : David Madden
Download or read book American Dreams, American Nightmares written by David Madden and published by Carbondale : Southern Illinois University Press. This book was released on 1970 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pursuit of the American Dream, supposedly shaped by the edenic promises of the American land, has engaged our writers from the beginning, and much of our literature has come out of the national literary experience thus expressed. This collection of nineteen original, unpublished essays written for this book is particularly relevant today, when our collective field of vision seems obscured, and when the American Dream seems to have become a cliche, symbolic of the Dream defunct.The nineteen critics here presented include, among others, Leslie Fiedler, Oscar Cargill, Maxwell Geismar, Jules Chametzky, Louis Filler, and Ihab Hassan. Most of them seem to agree with the view expressed by the majority of our best creative writers: that in pursuing the American Dream, America has created a nightmare.Taken together, the nineteen essays provide a comprehensive view of American literature, past and present, as it has dealt with the Dream; but the emphasis is on modern works and present social, cultural, and political problemspoverty, war, and racism. Ten of the essays focus on such key works as Herman Melville s The Two Temples, F. Scott Fitzgerald s "The Great Gatsby," William Faulkner s The Bear, Thomas Wolfe s "You Can t Go Home Again," " "Ralph Ellison s "Invisible Man," " "Arthur Miller s "Death of a Salesman, "and Norman Mailer s "Why Are We in Vietnam?""

Book Synopsis The American President by : William E. Leuchtenburg
Download or read book The American President written by William E. Leuchtenburg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 904 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American President is an enthralling account of American presidential actions from the assassination of William McKinley in 1901 to Bill Clinton's last night in office in January 2001. William Leuchtenburg, one of the great presidential historians of the century, portrays each of the presidents in a chronicle sparkling with anecdote and wit. Leuchtenburg offers a nuanced assessment of their conduct in office, preoccupations, and temperament. His book presents countless moments of high drama: FDR hurling defiance at the "economic royalists" who exploited the poor; ratcheting tension for JFK as Soviet vessels approach an American naval blockade; a grievously wounded Reagan joking with nurses while fighting for his life. This book charts the enormous growth of presidential power from its lowly state in the late nineteenth century to the imperial presidency of the twentieth. That striking change was manifested both at home in periods of progressive reform and abroad, notably in two world wars, Vietnam, and the war on terror. Leuchtenburg sheds light on presidents battling with contradictory forces. Caught between maintaining their reputation and executing their goals, many practiced deceits that shape their image today. But he also reveals how the country's leaders pulled off magnificent achievements worthy of the nation's pride.
