This venue was located inside of Cooper river Park in New Jersey. The group met twice a month and shared poetic ideas, we were like a family, exchanging ideas and encouraging each other as brothers and sisters. Our ring leader was Brother Daoud Bey who was Mr. everything, doing anything that need to be done from MC, keeping things in order, providing music, encouragement, food for thought. And a big kind heart.! Brother Bey was the right hand of Sandra Turner Barnes, Executive Director of Camden County Cultural Heritage Commission. She worked tirelessly to maintain Poetry in The Park for 10 years at the aforementioned location. I was a part of seven of those years at my home away from home. We have found another location in a larger better venue, located in the City of Camden, New Jersey a part of The IDEA Center at the Susquehanna Bank Center.

Queen Devota is merciless, torturing the slaves bound to the Riverfall Chamber. Months have passed, and as she is healed only to suffer more, Maren loses hope—not only for herself but also in knowing if Kane lives past the falls. Against all odds, a wizened fae breaks Maren free with a clear order—help the Rengae princess break out another prisoner. Despite her best efforts, Maren is carried from the castle before rescuing anyone. Dumped into the swamp, she finds that summer has indeed replaced winter. Somman reigns as Devota’s sadistic rule incites war and suffering in all three realms. Yet, the queen cannot allow Maren to escape that easily, and she plans to capture her sister, Thea, next. Meeting up with the demanding royals again, Maren learns that Kane is alive. He’s hurrying north to protect her sister on her behalf. Weak from the longuex disease, Thea won’t last long. Worse, as Maren rushes to reunite with Kane and seek safety, she learns that the hex is deadlier, not eradicated with the king’s death. Among monsters and liars, Maren must determine the next step in this war: Help Kane search for the Ranger sword—again—or see to her sister’s safety first. When someone interferes with her plans, Maren must try to overcome the new threat of invaders breaching the shores. And this foreign fae seems unbeatable. This time she’ll fight with Kane at her side…despite their differences and clashing tempers. No matter how much she hides her lie from him and how she can’t determine which war is the right one to join.

Book Synopsis A Tour of Fabletown by : Neta Gordon
Download or read book A Tour of Fabletown written by Neta Gordon and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-03-11 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2002, Vertigo/DC Comics published the first issue of Bill Willingham's Fables. The series imagined the lives of fairy tale figures--Snow White, the Big Bad Wolf, Cinderella and the ubiquitous Prince Charming, among many others--as they made new lives for themselves in modern-day New York City, having fled their storied homeworlds following an invasion. After 150 issues and many awards, Fables concluded its run in July 2015. This study, the first about the sprawling, complex series, discusses such topics as Fables' status as a contemporary adaptation of folk and fairy tales; its use of conventional genres like sword-and-sorcery, crime and romance; its portrayal of social and political relationships; and its self-referential moments. Providing a detailed introduction to the themes and ideas in the series, the author explores how Fables portrays redemption, the function of community, and how our hopes and fears influence our ideal of "happily ever after."

Book Synopsis The Beecher Sisters by : Barbara A. White
Download or read book The Beecher Sisters written by Barbara A. White and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2003-11-01 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “rich, varied, sensitive” biography of three nineteenth-century women: an educator, an early feminist, and the author of Uncle Tom’s Cabin (Publishers Weekly). Daughters of the famous evangelist Lyman Beecher, Catherine, Harriet, and Isabella could not follow their father and seven brothers into the ministry. Nonetheless, they carved out path-breaking careers for themselves. Catharine Beecher founded the Hartford Female Seminary and devoted her life to improving women’s education. Harriet Beecher Stowe became world famous as the author of Uncle Tom’s Cabin. And Isabella Beecher Hooker was an outspoken advocate for women’s rights. This engrossing book is a joint biography of the sisters, whose lives spanned the full course of the nineteenth century. The life of Isabella Beecher—who has never been the subject of a biography—is examined in particular detail here, as Barbara White draws on little used sources to explore Isabella’s political development and her interactions with her sisters and with prominent people of the time—from Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton to Mark Twain.

Book Synopsis All I Want Is Loving You by : Steve Bergsman
Download or read book All I Want Is Loving You written by Steve Bergsman and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2023-10-30 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In All I Want Is Loving You: Popular Female Singers of the 1950s, author Steve Bergsman focuses on the white, female artists of the 1950s, a time that predated the chart-topping girl groups of the early 1960s. These popular performers, many of whom graduated out of the big bands of the 1940s, impacted popular music in a huge way. As the last bastion of traditional pop and the last sirens of swing, they undeniably shined in the spotlight. Yet these singers’ fame dimmed relatively quickly with the advent of rock ’n’ roll. A fortunate few, like Doris Day, Patti Page, Peggy Lee, and Debbie Reynolds, experienced some of their biggest hits in the late 1950s, and Eydie Gormé broke out in the 1960s. The luckiest, including Dinah Shore and Rosemary Clooney, ventured to television with varying degrees of success. Others would become major attractions at nightclubs in Las Vegas or, like Teresa Brewer, shift into the jazz world. Though the moment did not last, these performers were best-selling singers, darlings of the disk jockeys, and the frenetic heartbeat of fan clubs during their heyday. In a companion volume, Bergsman has written the history of African American women singers of the same era. These Black musicians transitioned more easily as a new form of music, rock ’n’ roll, skyrocketed in popularity. In both books, Bergsman reintroduces readers to these talented singers, offering a thorough look at their work and turning up the volume on their legacy.
Book Synopsis Transnational Reproduction by : Daisy Deomampo
Download or read book Transnational Reproduction written by Daisy Deomampo and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transnational Reproduction traces the relationships among Western aspiring parents, Indian surrogates, and egg donors from around the world. In the early 2010s India was one of the top providers of surrogacy services in the world. Drawing on interviews with commissioning parents, surrogates, and egg donors as well as doctors and family members, Daisy Deomampo argues that while the surrogacy industry in India offers a clear example of “stratified reproduction”—the ways in which political, economic, and social forces structure the conditions under which women carry out physical and social reproductive labor—it also complicates that concept as the various actors in this reproductive work struggle to understand their relationships to one another. The book shows how these actors make sense of their connections, illuminating the ways in which kinship ties are challenged, transformed, or reinforced in the context of transnational gestational surrogacy. The volume revisits the concept of stratified reproduction in ways that offer a more robust and nuanced understanding of race and power as ideas about kinship intersect with structures of inequality. It demonstrates that while reproductive actors share a common quest for conception, they make sense of family in the context of globalized assisted reproductive technologies in very different ways. In doing so, Deomampo uncovers the specific racial reproductive imaginaries that underpin the unequal relations at the heart of transnational surrogacy.
