Book Synopsis Brother to a Dragonfly by : Will D. Campbell
Download or read book Brother to a Dragonfly written by Will D. Campbell and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Brother to a Dragonfly, Will D. Campbell (1924–2013) writes about his life growing up poor in Amite County, Mississippi, during the 1930s alongside his older brother, Joe. Though they grew up in a close-knit family and cared for each other, the two went on to lead very different lives. After serving together in World War II, Will became a highly educated Baptist minister who later became a major figure in the early years of the civil rights movement, and Joe became a pharmacist who developed a substance abuse problem that ultimately took his life. Brother to a Dragonfly also serves as a historical record. Though Will's love and dedication to his brother are the primary story, interwoven throughout the narrative is the story of the Jim Crow South and the civil rights movement. Will is present through many of the most pivotal moments in history—he was one of four people who escorted black students integrating the Little Rock public schools; he was the only white person present at the founding of the SCLC; he helped CORE and SNCC Freedom Riders integrate interstate bus travel; he joined Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s campaign of boycotts, sit-ins, and marches in Birmingham; and he was at the Lorraine Motel the night Dr. King was assassinated. Will's accomplishments, however, never take the spotlight from his brother, and as his relationship with Joe evolves, so does Will's faith. Featuring a new foreword by Congressman John Lewis, this book brings back to print the combined lives of Will Campbell—Will the brother and Will the preacher.

Book excerpt: The poems and prose poems in this slim volume offer simple reflections on moments of insight - some whimsical, some humorous, mostly meditative. They reflect on a lifetime of living in places where I was a stranger, an infidel, an anomaly. In this, the final chapter of my well-lived life, I offer them to friends and fellow strangers in the dragonfly spirit of transformation. May they spur conversations, connections, or gentle nods of recognition. From the introduction: "Such moments were reminders that spirit endures beyond death, that love and beauty, though seemingly transient and fragile, are also resilient and enduring. This is the significance of the dragonfly spirit."

Book Synopsis Children of the Dragonfly by : Robert Bensen
Download or read book Children of the Dragonfly written by Robert Bensen and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes the losses of childhood can be recovered only in the flight of the dragonfly. Native American children have long been subject to removal from their homes for placement in residential schools and, more recently, in foster or adoptive homes. The governments of both the United States and Canada, having reduced Native nations to the legal status of dependent children, historically have asserted a surrogate parentalism over Native children themselves. Children of the Dragonfly is the first anthology to document this struggle for cultural survival on both sides of the U.S.-Canadian border. Through autobiography and interviews, fiction and traditional tales, official transcripts and poetry, these voices— Seneca, Cherokee, Mohawk, Navajo, and many others— weave powerful accounts of struggle and loss into a moving testimony to perseverance and survival. Invoking the dragonfly spirit of Zuni legend who helps children restore a way of life that has been taken from them, the anthology explores the breadth of the conflict about Native childhood. Included are works of contemporary authors Sherman Alexie, Joy Harjo, Luci Tapahonso, and others; classic writers Zitkala-Sa and E. Pauline Johnson; and contributions from twenty important new writers as well. They take readers from the boarding school movement of the 1870s to the Sixties Scoop in Canada and the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 in the United States. They also spotlight the tragic consequences of racist practices such as the suppression of Indian identity in government schools and the campaign against Indian childbearing through involuntary sterilization.

When our journey is acknowledged, we create a focus for learning from our experience. Dragonfly Dialogues explores this life-long process of awakening. Could we consider the possibility that we are here on a Divine Mission, even though we may have forgotten what that mission might be? when we look at our life from a perspective that considers all of our life experiences, the comedies, and the tragedies, we may indeed become aware that all of the ups and downs create a complete picture, and all of it is perfect. if we begin to recognize and realize that we are the physical expression of the universe trying to understand and express itself in all of its parts and possibilities, everything may start to make more sense. Then we may begin honoring ourselves for who and what we are, and recognize the unique role each of us plays. when we listen to our hearts instead of our heads, we begin to move into a higher level of awareness. As we have fun, play, enjoy, BE, we begin to embody our Divine purpose. This lovely book comes from a woman sharing a life of wisdom...a woman comfortable enough with her self to share her wisdom quietly, gently, with love. I enjoyed every page. – John Friedlander co-author of psychic Psychology: Energy Skills for Life and Relationships
Book Synopsis Tears of a Dragonfly by : Michael Butts
Download or read book Tears of a Dragonfly written by Michael Butts and published by America Star Books. This book was released on 2013-03 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micheal Butts was born in 1974, Des Moines, Iowa. His first attempt to kill himself was when he was nine years old, but his brother stopped him. At this early age, he knew that he was not fit for this world. Again at fourteen, he almost died from alcohol poisoning, but once again a family member, his mother, found him and took him to the hospital before he died. Both schools that he went to were filled with those that thought they were better than he just because he was Black. But there also were those that took the time to look beyond his flesh to find a true friend. Shrouded by alcohol, drugs, racial tensions, yet knowing there was something else out there has always been a way of life for Micheal until he found a way to live without drugs or a drink. The line though that he still walks is that of spirit and flesh, or ego and soul if you will. Daily asking himself if this is truly the ultimate reality then what have I been doing all these years? And if it is not then whom truly do I serve? Finishing this book is the second of many tasks he has set out to do. He took to inspiring others that need healing when he launched I: A.M. Message cards. This all manifested when he heard a voice while lying on the floor of his job in pain tell him to turn his poems into cards. Since then he has sold/given away more than 2,000 cards, paintings, and inspirational messages. Micheal continues to teach but this time as a personal trainer. He and his family now reside in a suburb of Houston, Texas. Funny how life has put him in the last state to set slaves free. This place would be the last place to finally set his soul free from the drink and back toward the beam. In closing, Micheal's only wish is that others understand that the writings might have been made from his hand but not from him for he is just a nail that God has hammered through the veil.

Despite losing both parents as a teenager, Savannah is creating a positive life for herself, surrounded by friends and co-workers who are now her family. But she also has a secret—as much as she wants to settle down and have children, she is afraid of getting sick too, and having to leave them without their mother, as she herself was left behind years ago. Her mother is Deirdre Rose. She continues to watch over Savannah, who feels deeply connected to her mother whenever a dragonfly crosses her path. Now meet Ben, a good-looking, talented recording artist who is already a household name. Yeah, he’s famous, but he’s also painfully lonely. He trusts few people because it seems everyone wants something from him instead of getting to know who he really is. As fate would have it, Savannah and Ben cross paths at a yoga retreat in the Massachusetts Berkshires. They are drawn to each other’s creativity and outlook on life. She sees beyond his celebrity and he admires her strength in what she’s had to overcome. What happens when the retreat ends and they're forced to go their separate ways? Will they be able to make a long distance relationship work? Can Savannah put aside her fears, and will Ben allow himself to be truly vulnerable? Above all . . . what message do Deirdre Rose and Dragonflies have for both of them?
