Book excerpt: When Your Dream Becomes a Nightmare (WDBN) is a novel about the life of Chloe Everheart, a young beautiful attorney who believes that after God, there is nothing more important than family. Her dream is to become a successful attorney, but a series of family crises jeopardize the success she's worked so hard for. First, her parents announce they're getting divorced after thirty one years of marriage, and then her teenage brother is arrested. She devises a plot to get him out of jail, but it blows up in her face and threatens her life. Her faith is tested as she faces a temptation that ruins the one thing she covets most-her reputation. She finds herself at a crossroad and the decision she makes changes her life in a way she could have never imagined. "Where do you go when you're broken, lost, and confused-when your back is against the wall-when your dream becomes a nightmare?" Born and raised in Detroit, Nakesha Woods began writing short stories at the age of twelve. Her love for words inspired her to write poetry, which she performed at coffee houses. As a young adult, she began writing and directing Christian stage plays. After years of managing a nonprofit geared towards empowering women, she was led to write her first novel. When Your Dream Becomes a Nightmare was birthed out of her desire to provide clean Christian fiction that uplifts and encourages women of all ages. Nakesha is married to the love of her life, Michael, and they share a creatively talented son.
Book Synopsis The Dream and the Nightmare by : Myron Magnet
Download or read book The Dream and the Nightmare written by Myron Magnet and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 422 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 Black Prophetic Fire by : Cornel West
Download or read book Black Prophetic Fire written by Cornel West and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unflinching look at nineteenth- and twentieth-century African American leaders and their visionary legacies. In an accessible, conversational format, Cornel West, with distinguished scholar Christa Buschendorf, provides a fresh perspective on six revolutionary African American leaders: Frederick Douglass, W. E. B. Du Bois, Martin Luther King Jr., Ella Baker, Malcolm X, and Ida B. Wells. In dialogue with Buschendorf, West examines the impact of these men and women on their own eras and across the decades. He not only rediscovers the integrity and commitment within these passionate advocates but also their fault lines. West, in these illuminating conversations with the German scholar and thinker Christa Buschendorf, describes Douglass as a complex man who is both “the towering Black freedom fighter of the nineteenth century” and a product of his time who lost sight of the fight for civil rights after the emancipation. He calls Du Bois “undeniably the most important Black intellectual of the twentieth century” and explores the more radical aspects of his thinking in order to understand his uncompromising critique of the United States, which has been omitted from the American collective memory. West argues that our selective memory has sanitized and even “Santaclausified” Martin Luther King Jr., rendering him less radical, and has marginalized Ella Baker, who embodies the grassroots organizing of the civil rights movement. The controversial Malcolm X, who is often seen as a proponent of reverse racism, hatred, and violence, has been demonized in a false opposition with King, while the appeal of his rhetoric and sincerity to students has been sidelined. Ida B. Wells, West argues, shares Malcolm X’s radical spirit and fearless speech, but has “often become the victim of public amnesia.” By providing new insights that humanize all of these well-known figures, in the engrossing dialogue with Buschendorf, and in his insightful introduction and powerful closing essay, Cornel West takes an important step in rekindling the Black prophetic fire.

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.

This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A truly comprehensive, scientifically rigorous and utterly fascinating account of when, how, and why we dream. Put simply, When Brains Dream is the essential guide to dreaming." —Matthew Walker, author of Why We Sleep Questions on the origins and meaning of dreams are as old as humankind, and as confounding and exciting today as when nineteenth-century scientists first attempted to unravel them. Why do we dream? Do dreams hold psychological meaning or are they merely the reflection of random brain activity? What purpose do dreams serve? When Brains Dream addresses these core questions about dreams while illuminating the most up-to-date science in the field. Written by two world-renowned sleep and dream researchers, it debunks common myths that we only dream in REM sleep, for example—while acknowledging the mysteries that persist around both the science and experience of dreaming. Antonio Zadra and Robert Stickgold bring together state-of-the-art neuroscientific ideas and findings to propose a new and innovative model of dream function called NEXTUP—Network Exploration to Understand Possibilities. By detailing this model’s workings, they help readers understand key features of several types of dreams, from prophetic dreams to nightmares and lucid dreams. When Brains Dream reveals recent discoveries about the sleeping brain and the many ways in which dreams are psychologically, and neurologically, meaningful experiences; explores a host of dream-related disorders; and explains how dreams can facilitate creativity and be a source of personal insight. Making an eloquent and engaging case for why the human brain needs to dream, When Brains Dream offers compelling answers to age-old questions about the mysteries of sleep.
