Book Synopsis Wake Up, This Is Joburg by : Tanya Zack
Download or read book Wake Up, This Is Joburg written by Tanya Zack and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-19 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A single image taken from a high-rise building in inner-city Johannesburg uncovers layers of history—from its premise and promise of gold to its current improvisations. It reveals the city as carcass and as crucible, where informal agents and processes spearhead its rapid reshaping and transformation. In Wake Up, This Is Joburg, writer Tanya Zack and photographer Mark Lewis offer a stunning portrait of Johannesburg and personal stories of some of the city’s ordinary, odd, and outrageous residents. Their photos and essays take readers into meat markets where butchers chop cow heads; the eclectic home of an outsider artist that features turrets and full of manikins; long-abandoned gold pits beneath the city, where people continue to mine informally; and lively markets, taxi depots, and residential high-rises. Sharing people’s private and work lives and the extraordinary spaces of the metropolis, Zack and Lewis show that Johannesburg’s urban transformation occurs not in a series of dramatic, wide-scale changes but in the everyday lives, actions, and dreams of individuals.

Book Synopsis "Wake Up, Mr. West" by : Joshua K. Wright
Download or read book "Wake Up, Mr. West" written by Joshua K. Wright and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black celebrities in America have always walked a precarious line between their perceived status as spokespersons for their race and their own individual success--and between being "not black enough" for the black community or "too black" to appeal to a broader audience. Few know this tightrope walk better than Kanye West, who transformed hip-hop, pop and gospel music, redefined fashion, married the world's biggest reality TV star and ran for president, all while becoming one of only a handful of black billionaires worldwide. Despite these accomplishments, his polarizing behavior, controversial alliances and bouts with mental illness have made him a caricature in the media and a disappointment among much of his fanbase. This book examines West's story and what it reveals about black celebrity and identity and the American dream.

Book Synopsis Stand-up Comedy in Africa by : Izuu Nwankwọ
Download or read book Stand-up Comedy in Africa written by Izuu Nwankwọ and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-03-21 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African cultural productions of humour have increased even in the face of myriad economic foibles and social upheavals. For instance, from the 1990s, stand-up comedy emerged across the continent and has maintained a pervasive presence since then. Its specificities are related to contemporary economic and political contexts and are also drawn from its pre-colonial history, that of joking forms and relationships, and orality. Izuu Nwankwọ's fascinating collected volume offers a transnational appraisal of this unique art form spanning different nations of the continent and its diasporas. The book engages variously with jokesters, their materials, the mediums of dissemination, and the cultural value(s) and relevance of their stage work, encompassing the form and content of the practice. Its ruling theoretical perspective comes from theatre and performance, cultural studies, linguistics, and literary studies.

Book excerpt: You will never live a happy life leave alone achieve your dreams and reach your destiny if you fail to find your purpose in life. Every page of this book will help you to not only find your identity but also become conversant about the tenacity you have towards achieving your dream. This discovery will subject you to a splendid life of purpose and passion until you get to your destiny. This book is for teens and young adults who are looking forward to rise above their fears, depart from mediocrity afoot a complete transformation and efficacy of their lives by first realizing who they are and finding their Gods given purpose in life before they embark on a life journey with a sole purpose of becoming successful in all areas of their lives if they adhere to their purpose and live their passion. Parents: As you embark on a venture to gentrify your teens life, this book will enhance your parenting acumen and help you to undertake your parenting responsibility of inculcating your teens and young adults with the moral responsibilities that they need in order to always make positive decisions not worth regrets in their present and future lives. Since empowerment is a very vital act of mentorship that fosters self-identity and ameliorates an individuals quality of life, ignorance is bliss only when the knowledge of God is not involved. Its through our relationship with God that we come to find our purpose, gain confidence, become courageous and suppress our fears in life as we progress towards our destiny. As we seek to find our God mandated purpose in our lives, its very imperative to know that life comes in phases where victory of your present stage invigorates your progress in the next stage. Nevertheless, our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. Its our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Most of the times we ask ourselves; who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and successful? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your constrained thinking does not serve or impact the world. Your life is not a mistake. Every human being has a purpose which should dictate him or her to live a purpose driven life. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. Its not just in some of us; its in everyone. As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to follow suit. As we are emancipated from our own fear, our presence and perseverance automatically emancipates others.
Book Synopsis Stand up Stand Down by : Lynda Rogle
Download or read book Stand up Stand Down written by Lynda Rogle and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-11-26 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story is set in a country struggling to come to terms with change and challenged by the difficulty of good governance in the face of dire poverty juxtaposed with immense wealth. The hero finds himself challenged on a personal and professional level to be faithful to the truth and loyal to his calling even as his family disintegrates because of this. His journey to find the truth takes him to places and people who contribute to both his search and his personal growth in a way that he never expects. What starts out as a simple story about an attempted murder, in a country where murder is the order of the day, becomes an intriguing journey; a journey that exposes the dark underbelly of a society that is bent on proving to itself and the world at large that the democracy won with the blood of innocent children is a reality. The outcome is as unexpected as it is thought provoking.

Book Synopsis A Wake-Up Call! by : V. I. .Umenyiora
Download or read book A Wake-Up Call! written by V. I. .Umenyiora and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2017-03-22 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Wake-Up Call! was written by V. I. Umenyiora “because we have political problems in Nigeria and indeed Africa. My Heads of State from 1980 on made a public pronouncement inviting Nigerians home and abroad to submit solutions they consider will help solve some, if not all of the problems. I succeeded in this because they are using parts of the solutions I submitted in my previous books.” Following are some of the major solutions the author proposed: In his first publication, Nigeria – survival or disintegration! (ISBN 978-2335-28-2, 1988) you'll find: - Option A-4 taken verbatim from the pages; he recommended need for finger/ name-reader machines for use to simplify the exercise, which is in use now in Nigeria. He also proposed a need for a “National Orientation programme” for Nigeria to be installed in 1992; civil service reform or strengthening to serve the political parties irrespective of which one is in power in the country; the need for recapitalisation of banks to help business organisations raise adequate funding for their enterprises to cushion the effect of SAP, which not only debased the local currency but truncated all capital investments economically by the citizens! He also proposed the need to curb corruption, including an asset detection mechanism for Nigeria to help politicians/public servants in declaration of assets as required by the Constitution. It was pointed out there was a need for a “common-pool” approach in 1988-1989 and 1993, and in particular on the 4th June 2015 correspondence to the president against corruption. The author points out that banking reform, government corruption, affordable housing, infrastructure repair, and environmental concerns are only some of the problems being faced in Nigeria. This is the Challenge to What You Can Do for Your Country!
