Our angel usually doesn’t get to do field work, and if he does well, he’s certain he’ll get a big promotion. And now it’s time . . . . The angel reaches into his pocket for the instrument of humanity’s doom. Must be in the other pocket. Then he frantically begins to pat himself down. Dejected, he realizes he has lost the object.

Download or read book Black White written by Mark Anaki and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2020-12-21 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black White describes a young man’s pursuit of higher education overseas. A journey that leads him from his homestead in Western Nigeria to the United Kingdom. It chronicles culture conflicts, internal dialogues and personal discoveries. As the title may suggest, Black White is not so much about racial tension but about the contrasts a young man observes as he transitions from one world to another. It is about how his identity is formed, altered and reformed by the socio-cultural currents around him. It is about how his concept of learning and education changes as he leaves one society for the other and how his blackness (an earlier unknown concept) often turned up the most unexpected twists. Black White is a personal story of aspiration, conflict and gradual enlightenment. It is a catalogue of the many dimensions of being a privileged man in a black and white world.

Download or read book One More Train to Ride written by Cliff (Oats) Williams and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-18 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawn from intimate interviews with 14 modern-day "steel rail nomads," One More Train to Ride provides a revealing picture of today's American hobo. Interspersed with their stories are original poems and songs echoing the ancient lyricism and loneliness of life on the road. Their connections with the past make the experiences of these hoboes even more striking, as they ride freight trains and jungle up in hobo camps, light years away from the 21st-century cyberworld -- yet touching the very core of American freedom and individualism. Cliff Williams skillfully elicits details of family background, motives, and clear insights into the daily life and philosophy of the modern hobo. With its evocative link to the past, One More Train to Ride continues a long tradition of books on hobo oral history, including Nels Anderson's The Hobo (1923) and Thomas Minehan's Boy and Girl Tramps of America (1934).
