Underground, Monroe, and The Mamalogues
Author: Lisa B. Thompson
Publisher: Northwestern University Press
ISBN: 0810142287
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
This book features new plays by Lisa B. Thompson, author of Single Black Female. In these three plays, the black feminist playwright and scholar thoughtfully explores themes such as the black family, motherhood, migration, racial violence, and trauma and its effect on black people from the early twentieth century to the present. The works showcase Thompson’s subversive humor and engagement with black history and culture through the lens of the black middle class.

Monroe, a period drama about the Great Migration, depicts the impact of a lynching on a family and community in 1940s Louisiana. The Mamalogues, a satirical comedy, focuses on three middle-class black single mothers as they lean in, stress out, and guide precocious black children from diapers to college in a dangerous world. This collection will be compelling to readers interested in African American studies; drama, theater, and performance; feminist and gender studies; popular culture and media studies; and American studies.

Right Now Revelation
Author: Elluntate Bell
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1543466869
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 52
Book Description
As we navigate through this journey called life, have you ever felt that there is more to the story? Is there an inclination that the powers that be have given us a false narrative? This reflection of my future and past explores various topics that affect each of our lives and, at times, threaten our existence. This book is hard-hitting and speaks to power. It attempts to take the reader down a path of enlightenment, exploring historical inaccuracies, religious fallacies, sinister experiments, and geo-engineering, just to name a few. The poems are written in a rhythmic style, designed to uplift and to inspire to action. In order to secure a future for our children, we all need to step up to the plate. We all need to do our part in raising consciousness on a global level, taking a stand against the tyranny that exists in a prudent and intellectual manner. The rulers of this world continue to dumb us down with fluoride in our drinking water and vaccines injected in our children, while we continue to breathe this toxic air. Our air is filled with aluminum, strontium, and barium, and the average person is clueless of this and the effects theyre having on each of us. As the planes continue to traverse the airways, no longer can we afford to sit back in silence. The rulers of this paradigm continue to label us black, white, Republican, Democrat, Christian, or Muslim. In my opinion, the only labels that are pertinent to our existence is the haves and the have-nots. The revolution starts in the mind. I challenge each of my readers to do their part in helping to free humanity from this evil that has plagued us for far too long.

Watching While Black Rebooted!
Author: Beretta E. Smith-Shomade
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
ISBN: 1978830041
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
Watching While Black Rebooted: The Television and Digitality of Black Audiences examines what watching while Black means in an expanded U.S. televisual landscape. In this updated edition, media scholars return to television and digital spaces to think anew about what engages and captures Black audiences and users and why it matters. Contributors traverse programs and platforms to wrestle with a changing television industry that has exploded and included Black audiences as a new and central target of its visioning. The book illuminates history, care, monetization, and affect. Within these frames, the chapters run the gamut from transmediation, regional relevance, and superhuman visioning to historical traumas and progress, queer possibilities, and how televisual programming can make viewers feel Black. Mostly, the work tackles what the future looks like now for a changing televisual industry, Black media makers, and Black audiences. Chapters rethink such historically significant programs as Roots and Underground, such seemingly innocuous programs as Soul Food, and such contemporary and culturally complicated programs as Being Mary Jane and Atlanta. The book makes a case for the centrality of these programs while always recognizing the racial dynamics that continue to shape Black representation on the small screen. Painting a decidedly introspective portrait across forty years of Black television, Watching While Black Rebooted sheds much-needed light on under examined demographics, broadens common audience considerations, and gives deference to the preferences of audiences and producers of Black-targeted programming.

Leaving the Seventh Day Adventist Church
Author: Sonia Nicole Levi
Publisher: Sonia Nicole Levi
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
Have you tried to be one who submits not realizing that is Islamic? That is what happens when someone is groomed into a cult. It becomes a way of life until one finds that they are blending several religions into one and assuming that God is there without the Holy Spirit. There may be a god there but it is not the God of the Jews, Tetragrammaton shortened to the syllables YHVH. He extended salvation through all Jews, not just Jesus. John 4:22 says, "You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews." These words were stated in red denoting that they spoken by Jesus himself. Jesus died on the cross with the inscription INRI for the "King of the Jews" only. YHVH also changed his name to symbolically reflect that he is the God of the Jews and Gentiles to Jehovah JHVH still the shortened form of Tetragrammaton. Sabbath services are strictly forbidden on Saturdays in Judaism and Islam. When Ellen G. White received her vision to create a new christian denomination she thought in her mind that she had "carteblanche" to create an entirely new church system. She did not have "carteblanche" from Jesus or Jehovah as Seventh Day Adventists were an extension of bewildered Jehovah's Witnesses. Seventh Day Adventists are considered one of The Asherah's cults. This denomination is well known for attracting everyone to do the same things the same way "when" this is NOT wisdom. It is Satanic. Discover the meaning behind the man Jesus and all that Judaism, Kabbalah and Christianity has to offer to the neophyte and seasoned believer, arrive at a place of truism where witches are stunned and find freedom in bowing at the name of Kyrios who is Jesus, Emmanuel, and JHVH.
