The Names of All the Flowers
Author: Melissa Valentine
Publisher: The Feminist Press at CUNY
ISBN: 1936932865
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
A “poignant, painful, and gorgeous” memoir that explores siblinghood, adolescence, and grief for a family shattered by loss (Alicia Garza, cocreator, Black Lives Matter). Melissa and her older brother Junior grow up running around the disparate neighborhoods of 1990s Oakland, two of six children to a white Quaker father and a black Southern mother. But as Junior approaches adolescence, a bullying incident and later a violent attack in school leave him searching for power and a sense of self in all the wrong places; he develops a hard front and falls into drug dealing. Right before Junior’s twentieth birthday, the family is torn apart when he is murdered as a result of gun violence. The Names of All the Flowers connects one tragic death to a collective grief for all black people who die too young. A lyrical recounting of a life lost, Melissa Valentine’s debut memoir is an intimate portrait of a family fractured by the school-to-prison pipeline and an enduring love letter to an adored older brother. It is a call for justice amid endless cycles of violence, grief, and trauma, declaring: “We are all witness and therefore no one is spared from this loss.” “A portrait of a place, a person who died too young, the systems that led to that death, and the keen insights of the author herself. Lyrical and smart, with appropriate undercurrents of rage.” —Emily Raboteau, author of Searching for Zion “Eloquently poignant.” —Kirkus Reviews

Swami Vivekanandas History of Universal Religion and its Potential for Global Reconciliation
Author: Sister Gayatriprana
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1678038229
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 606
Book Description
In the words of Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902) this book is a history of Vedanta, a deeply subjective Indian spiritual tradition going back to prehistoric times. There God is experienced and known directly in the depths of the human soul. We learn of the social structures, philosophical schools and practices of self-transformation at its heart and how the tradition withstood a millennium of subjugation to Western Abrahamic religions with their extra-cosmic deity and deep distrust of Vedantic subjectivity. Vivekananda speaks from the level of vijnana that permits of integration of both Indian subjectivity and Western objectivism, opening a door to their conciliation with each other and indeed to any other of the global spiritual traditions. An artist, medical doctor and Vedantic nun, Gayatriprana seeks to integrate Western science and Vedanta, as in her doctoral thesis: Learning in Depth: A Case Study in Twin 5x5 Matrices of Consciousness: https: //jeanmacphail.academia.
