Book Description
As a Christmas gift to himself, interior designer Nick Dailey decides to fly to Southern Florida to watch his local NFL team play an away game. However, his last minute plans meant there was no room at any of the inns, forcing him to rent a room in a seedy motel. Nick’s employee and best gal pal, Penny, had promised him a surprise gift. He’s amazed when he discovers this is none other than a meeting with “Big Bad Brad” Williams, star defensive lineman for the Outlaws. Nick can’t believe it when Brad asks if he can kiss Nick. Naturally Nick agrees. Pushing his luck, Nick asks to explore the big man’s chocolate-colored skin, bulging muscles, and heavy tattoos. Things take a decided turn for the surreal when Brad strips naked and Nick is formally introduced to Brad’s genitalia -- Buddy Johnson and Bill and Ben Balls. What follows is an afternoon of passion, wonder, and delight that Nick knows he won’t ever forget. But when the encounter is over, unexpected and uncomfortable truths are revealed. How will Brad and Nick each handle their surprise gifts?

A Pedagogy of Witnessing
Author: Roger I. Simon
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438452713
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
This outstanding comparative study on the curating of "difficult knowledge" focuses on two museum exhibitions that presented the same lynching photographs. Through a detailed description of the exhibitions and drawing on interviews with museum staff and visitor comments, Roger I. Simon explores the affective challenges to thought that lie behind the different curatorial frameworks and how viewers' comments on the exhibitions perform a particular conversation about race in America. He then extends the discussion to include contrasting exhibitions of photographs of atrocities committed by the German army on the Eastern Front during World War II, as well as to photographs taken at the Khmer Rouge S-21 torture and killing center. With an insightful blending of theoretical and qualitative analysis, Simon proposes new conceptualizations for a contemporary public pedagogy dedicated to bearing witness to the documents of racism.

Heaven by Surprise
Author: Robert M. Mitchell
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1412025087
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
This book draws the reader into the heart and soul of a pastor. Having shepherded New England churches for thirty-five years, he speaks his mind openly and offers opinions without apology, but with compassion befitting a minister of the Gospel. The writings are a compilation of stories from his personal diary that will touch the heart and tickle the funny bone. There is the risk as you read, however, of shedding a tear or two, and the probability of laughing out loud as he affectionately introduces us to the wide variety of people he served. Just when you think you've heard it all, he offers up another tale to arouse your interest. It's not a read-at-one-sitting kind of book, but may be picked up and delved into for as little as a few minutes at a time. But for those who want to curl up with a good book for an hour of pleasure on a rainy afternoon, this will fill the bill. Mitchell feels obligated, at this time in his life, to share stories that ought to be told lest they be forgotten. They're worth recording and are too good not to remember. Book Signings By Author Saturday, September 25, from 2 to 4 p.m. at Park Place Congregational Church, 71 Park Place, Pawtucket, RI Sunday, September 26, 2004, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the home of Dick and Deb Phillips, 160 Sweet Farm Road, Portsmouth, RI Books may be purchased at both signings.
