The Broken Heart of America
Author: Walter Johnson
Publisher: Basic Books
ISBN: 1541646061
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 502
Book Description
A searing portrait of the racial dynamics that lie inescapably at the heart of our nation, told through the turbulent history of the city of St. Louis. From Lewis and Clark's 1804 expedition to the 2014 uprising in Ferguson, American history has been made in St. Louis. And as Walter Johnson shows in this searing book, the city exemplifies how imperialism, racism, and capitalism have persistently entwined to corrupt the nation's past. St. Louis was a staging post for Indian removal and imperial expansion, and its wealth grew on the backs of its poor black residents, from slavery through redlining and urban renewal. But it was once also America's most radical city, home to anti-capitalist immigrants, the Civil War's first general emancipation, and the nation's first general strike—a legacy of resistance that endures. A blistering history of a city's rise and decline, The Broken Heart of America will forever change how we think about the United States.

“I Have Kept the Faith”
Author: Albert Emmanuel Anderson
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1665538155
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Foreword: By: daughter: Deborah Dawn Anderson Chase As the oldest of the six children of Albert E and Aimee D Anderson, I have always seemed to carry the torch for our family legacy. I have “great” and “awesome” memories of the many sermons my dad preached throughout his years of ministry in the pulpit, as well as the “many” sermons that were preached to us kids before and during our times of discipline after doing something we were told not to do! Both were invaluable in my upbringing; and I will always be grateful for that. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this book will be an invaluable tool for the “new” Christian just beginning his journey, the “seasoned” Christian wanting a deeper walk with the Lord, or the person that is simply “searching” for something that is missing in their lives! Jesus wants to be sought after by all humanity; and it is only after finding “HIM” the giver of life, that true happiness lies. May you be as blessed reading this book as I was living it day in and day out!

My Broken Pieces
Author: Rosie Rivera
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101990082
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
The sister of “La Diva de la Banda”—legendary Mexican-American singer Jenni Rivera—opens up for the first time about Jenni’s untimely death and her own triumph over abuse and addiction. Growing up as the youngest Rivera, Rosie was surrounded by unconditional love, support, and affection. There was nothing that her family wouldn’t do for her, especially her sister Jenni, who was the most important thing in the world to Rosie. With her strong will and a solid foundation, Rosie was set to conquer the world. Yet life would take a drastic turn when Rivera was scarred by sexual abuse within her family at a very young age. Living in fear and confined by painful secrets, she was plagued with constant threats, confusion, and pain. Not only was she stripped of her childhood and innocence, but she was also robbed of her confidence and self-worth. Feeling completely shattered and lost, Rivera plunged into a world of damaging habits and deep depression. For the first time ever, and with unflinching candor and courage, Rosie shares the traumatic details of her abuse and the daily struggle to live and how, through faith and the love of her family, she found life once more. Yet Rosie’s life would be severely impacted once again as the worst tragedy imaginable hit and her biggest fear came to reality—the death of her beloved sister. Equally harrowing and uplifting, Rosie’s story is a true testament to beating the odds and proves that despite the worst of times and no matter how many more challenges life has in store, it is always possible to pick up the pieces and find the strength and purpose to dream and live again.
