Book Description
Between 1959 and 1968, New England saw a folk revival emerge in more than fifty clubs and coffeehouses, a revolution led by college dropouts, young bohemians, and lovers of traditional music that renewed the work of the region's intellectuals and reformers. From Club 47 in Harvard Square to candlelit venues in Ipswich, Martha's Vineyard, and Amherst, budding musicians and hopeful audiences alike embraced folk music, progressive ideals, and community as alternatives to an increasingly toxic consumer culture. While the Boston-Cambridge Folk Revival was short-lived, the youthful attention that it spurred played a crucial role in the civil rights, world peace, and back-to-the-land movements emerging across the country. Fueled by interviews with key players from the folk music scene, I Believe I'll Go Back Home traces a direct line from Yankee revolutionaries, up-country dancers, and nineteenth-century pacifists to the emergence of blues and rock 'n' roll, ultimately landing at the period of the folk revival. Thomas S. Curren presents the richness and diversity of the New England folk tradition, which continues to provide perspective, inspiration, and healing in the present day.

I Have a Dream

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
This one-act play is for the ages one through fifteen years of age, in hope of beyond. I am in hope that one person will come and give their life to Christ Jesus. If I can touch just one life from the East Coast to the West Coast on my way home and just one from the North Coast to the South Coast, then I have done just one thing good in my life on my way home. I have a dream someone will come to Christ, or come back to Christ Jesus our Lord. This one-act play, I Have a Dream, will become the center of all our lives, that if we come back to Jesus. And it will, if we give our heart to Jesus Christ. We, as born-again children of Christ Jesus, should take this from door to door, city to city, town to town, state to state, and country to country and say this dream can become real by me and by you when we let Christ Jesus be the center post in our life. Walk, speech, work... I have a dream that one day, cancer, stroke, diabetes, respiratory problems, mental illness, AIDS, and all other sickness will be done away with. This is my dream (2 Chron. 7:14).

Heed the Hollow
Author: Malcolm Tariq
Publisher: Graywolf Press
ISBN: 1644451085
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
The stirring debut from the winner of the Cave Canem Poetry Prize, selected and introduced by Chris Abani Heed the Hollow introduces the work of Malcolm Tariq, whose poems explore the concept of “the bottom” across blackness, sexuality, and the American South. These lyrics of queer desire meet the voices of enslaved ancestors to reckon with a lineage of trauma that manifests as silence, pain, and haunting memories, but also as want and love. In bops, lyrics, and erasures, Heed the Hollow tells of a heritage anchored to the landscape of the coastal South, to seawalls shaped by forced labor, and to the people “marked into the bottom / of history where then now / we find no shadow of life.” From that shadow, the voices in these poems make their own brightness, reclaiming their histories from a language that evolved to exclude them.
