Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I would like to point out that my purpose of writing this book is to enlighten many Hamite people who are scattered around the world through slavery and colonialism and who do not have a clue of who they are and where they come from, because this history is written in the Scripture and the Scripture Map of 1890 and many of these things were hidden from us, Hamite people and the world at large who do not have the understanding of the reading of the Scripture and do not have the Scripture map as I do, showing the land of Ham and his descendants. I am very glad and thankful to Yahweh that I am now able to write about these things in my own words so that I can bring much knowledge and understanding to the minds of the people of Ham worldwide. I hope to awake many of them about the great past and history that we as a people come from. This is the fulfillment of the prophecy that is mentioned in the Scripture. What was hidden in the dark shall surely come to light, and what was done in secret shall be made known on the house top.

Capture the spirit of Caribbean cooks and artists as you toss a colorful salad with fresh fruits. Craft seashells into picture frames, and make musical instruments from dried gourds.

Download or read book Power Inc written by David Rothkopf and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2012-02-28 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world's largest company, Wal-Mart Stores, has revenues higher than the GDP of all but twenty-five of the world's countries. Its employees outnumber the populations of almost a hundred nations. The world's largest asset manager, a secretive New York company called Black Rock, controls assets greater than the national reserves of any country on the planet. A private philanthropy, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, spends as much worldwide on health care as the World Health Organization. The rise of private power may be the most important and least understood trend of our time. David Rothkopf provides a fresh, timely look at how we have reached a point where thousands of companies have greater power than all but a handful of states. Beginning with the story of an inquisitive Swedish goat wandering off from his master and inadvertently triggering the birth of the oldest company still in existence, Power, Inc. follows the rise and fall of kings and empires, the making of great fortunes, and the chaos of bloody revolutions. A fast-paced tale in which champions of liberty are revealed to be paid pamphleteers of moneyed interests and greedy scoundrels trigger changes that lift billions from deprivation, Power, Inc. traces the bruising jockeying for influence right up to today's financial crises, growing inequality, broken international system, and battles over the proper role of government and markets. Rothkopf argues that these recent developments, coupled with the rise of powers like China and India, may not lead to the triumph of American capitalism that was celebrated just a few years ago. Instead, he considers an unexpected scenario, a contest among competing capitalisms offering different visions for how the world should work, a global ideological struggle in which European and Asian models may have advantages. An important look at the power struggle that is defining our times, Power, Inc. also offers critical insights into how to navigate the tumultuous years ahead.

Download or read book The Caribbean in a Changing World written by Stephanie Fullerton-Cooper and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-23 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is a critical reflection of the evolution of Caribbean countries since the demise of the West Indies Federation in 1962. At this historical juncture, some territories opted for independence while others remained dependent territories. The volume examines Caribbean societies in comparative and general ways, covering aspects of their ongoing development and challenges. It covers such areas as Caribbean integration, the state of human capital and social policy in the region, the education sector, Caribbean economic sustainability, and, significantly, the physical environment of the Caribbean. A central question has always been: should these territories have gone independent or stayed under some British tutelage? The book addresses this question, illustrating that these island states have made considerable progress, especially in the maintenance and deepening of democratic practices.
