Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This science fiction adventure represents the ultimate survivor genre, a hero against all odds, against powerful special interests too-big-to-fail, a system controlled by ultimate insiders who often seem hell-bent on obsession, the last war, escalation, and world economic domination, to create a brave new world, another dystopia. And the story focuses on a black site scientist with an urgent mission: to reach the next underground bunker with unparalleled destruction and equipment that smolders, a place with sections that have damage beyond description, beyond all known languages from some unknown experiment, as the experiment may have fractured time or seriously damaged a local aspect of the universe. As people often say the most important trait is location-location-location, a real estate term regarding a vital place or vulnerable point. And in this case, the concern is about a weapon of mass destruction, a favorite human pursue since prehistoric times, and this weapon is not a mother of all bombs, not MOAB or the insidious neutron bomb, but a new age experiment that directed a complex particle beam at a universal pressure point in space, universal defect in spacetime or support aspect, well, similar to the way someone brings down a high-rise building by damaging the main support beam, and in this case to collapse the universal wave function, as the universe may represent a bubble, a supreme algebraic bubble, a supreme bulkhead. And this secret military experiment, one without checks and balances, appears to have punctured the universe with a special warp bubble pierce, and might initiate deflation at faster than light speed, to deflate the universe, as space can move faster than light, which in this case will quickly collapse the universe, to bring about the End of Days, eschatology, the final events of history, and the ultimate human destiny.

Download or read book Young Gifted Black The Story of Trojan Records written by Michael de Koningh and published by Omnibus Press. This book was released on 2018-07-19 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it was formed, Trojan Records epitomised the punk DIY ethic over a decade before 1976. With a blizzard of individual labels and a marketing strategy that involved selling product out of the backs of vans, the company spearheaded the injection of reggae and ska into the vein of British youth consciousness. In its first brief six-year incarnation, Trojan produced nearly 30 hit singles, created the legendary compilation series Tighten Up and launched new acts like Jimmy Cliff, Desmond Dekker, Ken Boothe, The Pioneers, Bob And Marcia, Greyhound and Dave And Ansell Collins, all against a background of cut-throat politics, cultural division and prejudice. Featuring a comprehensive discography, Young, Gifted And Black is the official story of Trojan Records, lifting the lid on the scheming, backbiting and sheer seat-of-the-pants inspiration that made the label such a powerful force for black UK music.

Download or read book Calypso and Other Music of Trinidad 1912 1962 written by and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calypso, with its diverse cultural heritage, was the most significant Caribbean musical form from World War I to Trinidad and Tobago Independence in 1962. Though wildly popular in mid-1950s America, Calypso--along with other music from "the island of the hummingbird"--has been largely neglected or forgotten.

Rare field recordings are cataloged for the first time, including East Indian and Muslim community performances and Shango and Voodoo rites.

Audio sources are provided. Indexes list individual artists and groups, recording titles and labels.
Download or read book Race and the American Story written by Stephanie Shonekan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-02-16 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Race and the American Story, Stephanie Shonekan and Adam Seagrave provide a unique window into race relations in contemporary America. Shonekan, a Black woman who grew up in Nigeria and Trinidad before emigrating to the US and Seagrave, a white man who grew up in California's Napa Valley, have entwined their life histories to shed light on how Americans experience race. This book explores the authors' insights into the personal and social effects of racism and contains both an open acknowledgment of the realities of racism and a hopeful approach to confronting it. Race and the American Story provides a historically sensitive, culturally informed, and refreshingly novel treatment of race in the US. Combining the power of storytelling with the authors' expertise as scholars of politics and culture, this book shows how two very different personal stories relate to the American story--a story that is in danger of disintegrating in the twenty-first century.

Download or read book Mango Tree Musician written by Carlos Garnett and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2024-09-19 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saxophonist Carlos Garnett, despite being blind in his later years, was an integral part of Miles Davis' nonet. His pivotal roles extended beyond live performances to studio work during the "On the Corner" era in 1972. Though he was born in a community of laborers who worked for the Panama Canal Company, his talent and work ethic led him to perform with some of the world's most notable musicians. Garnett's upbringing had influences from various cultures, including Jamaica, Trinidad, and Barbados, which informed his later musical fusions. This autobiography traces Carlos Garnett's journey from his native, segregated town of Red Tank, now erased from modern maps. After establishing himself as a prominent musician in his homeland, Garnett left for Brooklyn, NY. There, he worked with Art Blakey, Freddie Hubbard, Charles Mingus, Andrew Hill, Mtume James, Norman Connors and of course, Miles Davis. Garnett's original albums for Muse Records showcased his musical fusions, highlighting his talents as a composer, arranger, and instrumentalist.

Download or read book Caribbean Literature in English written by Louis James and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caribbean Literature in English places its subject in its precise regional context. The `Caribbean', generally considered as one area, is highly discrete in its topography, race and languages, including mainland Guyana, the Atlantic island of Barbados, the Lesser Antilles, Trinidad, and Jamaica, whose size and history gave it an early sense of separate nationhood. Beginning with Raleigh's Discoverie of...Guiana (1596), this innovative study traces the sometimes surprising evolution of cultures which shared a common experience of slavery, but were intimately related to individual local areas. The approach is interdisciplinary, examining the heritage of the plantation era, and the issues of language and racial identity it created. From this base, Louis James reassesses the phenomenal expansion of writing in the contemporary period. He traces the influence of pan-Caribbean movements and the creation of an expatriate Caribbean identity in Britain and America: `Brit'n' is considered as a West Indian island, created by `colonization in reverse'. Further sections treat the development of a Caribbean aesthetic, and the repossession of cultural roots from Africa and Asia. Balancing an awareness of the regional identity of Caribbean literature with an exploration of its place in world and postcolonial literatures, this study offers a panoramic view that has become one of the most vital of the `new literatures in English'. This accessible overview of Caribbean writing will appeal to the general reader and student alike, and particularly to all who are interested in or studying Caribbean literatures and culture, postcolonial studies, Commonwealth 'new literatures' and contemporary literature and drama.
