Do the government's actions seem to be focused on the American people or others that they shouldn't? Just what is going on right now in America? Well, if you are like Mr. Grant, you might be wondering what is seriously going on in America right now. We have a country that seems to be on the brink of another Civil War all due to the actions of the individuals in charge. "Because, Seriously America, seriously", was created to give you a different perspective than the one being pushed by the media and on social media platforms. In today's new concerning world, what was once normal is not normal anymore. Normalcy now seems to be whatever these individuals in charge make up in their head and push out onto the American people. With this book, Grant gives you his perspective as a straight white catholic American male, trying to survive in a new America where white Americans like himself are now the enemy and most white Americans are being labeled racist or offensive for nothing other than their skin color being white.

Life can change very quickly, and Mr. Grant has experienced a life-changing event himself. As a man now living with a mechanical heart valve that keeps ticking to keep him alive, Mr. Grant gives you a different perspective and way to think about the claims that these individuals are making and why their claims along with their statements, could mean the death of America if we don't stop these individuals from achieving their goals. “History is not there for you to like or dislike. It is there for you to learn from it. In addition, if it offends you, even better. Because then you are less likely to repeat it. It is not yours to erase. It belongs to all of us.” -- unknown

Download or read book Chaos written by Tom O'Neill and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journalist's twenty-year fascination with the Manson murders leads to "gobsmacking" (The Ringer) new revelations about the FBI's involvement in this "kaleidoscopic" (The New York Times) reassessment of an infamous case in American history. Over two grim nights in Los Angeles, the young followers of Charles Manson murdered seven people, including the actress Sharon Tate, then eight months pregnant. With no mercy and seemingly no motive, the Manson Family followed their leader's every order -- their crimes lit a flame of paranoia across the nation, spelling the end of the sixties. Manson became one of history's most infamous criminals, his name forever attached to an era when charlatans mixed with prodigies, free love was as possible as brainwashing, and utopia -- or dystopia -- was just an acid trip away. Twenty years ago, when journalist Tom O'Neill was reporting a magazine piece about the murders, he worried there was nothing new to say. Then he unearthed shocking evidence of a cover-up behind the "official" story, including police carelessness, legal misconduct, and potential surveillance by intelligence agents. When a tense interview with Vincent Bugliosi -- prosecutor of the Manson Family and author of Helter Skelter -- turned a friendly source into a nemesis, O'Neill knew he was onto something. But every discovery brought more questions: Who were Manson's real friends in Hollywood, and how far would they go to hide their ties? Why didn't law enforcement, including Manson's own parole officer, act on their many chances to stop him? And how did Manson -- an illiterate ex-con -- turn a group of peaceful hippies into remorseless killers? O'Neill's quest for the truth led him from reclusive celebrities to seasoned spies, from San Francisco's summer of love to the shadowy sites of the CIA's mind-control experiments, on a trail rife with shady cover-ups and suspicious coincidences. The product of two decades of reporting, hundreds of new interviews, and dozens of never-before-seen documents from the LAPD, the FBI, and the CIA, Chaos mounts an argument that could be, according to Los Angeles Deputy District Attorney Steven Kay, strong enough to overturn the verdicts on the Manson murders. This is a book that overturns our understanding of a pivotal time in American history.
Download or read book Chaos Under Heaven written by Gordon Thomas and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story behind the struggle for democracy in China and the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre, still the subject of widespread government censorship efforts. The first complete book on the Tiananmen Square tragedy reveals how diplomats from the United States, Britain, and Europe knew exact details of the impending massacre of the students in Tiananmen. In a vivid narrative window into secret meetings in the Oval Office, CIA headquarters, and the private compound of China’s leaders, more than one hundred interviewees contribute to an untold story. Chaos Under Heaven reveals America and the West’s betrayal of the children of China, who, for a brief moment in history, brought democracy to their homeland. In this stunning book, Gordon Thomas takes readers inside the tragic drama of those fifty-five days when the young people of China, crying out for freedom, rebelled against the old men of the Long March. At stake were America’s and the world’s roles in the future of China. Once castigated by Karl Marx as a “carefully preserved mummy in a hermetically sealed coffin,” China has become the superpower of the Pacific. As the students’ demand for democracy escalated, the Western nations realized that their carefully cultivated ambitions for China were at risk. Their goal was to preserve the status quo.
