A GOOD MORNING AMERICA BUZZ PICK NAMED A BEST BOOK OF 2021 BY BARACK OBAMA * THE WASHINGTON POST * NPR * ESQUIRE * ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY * GOODREADS * THE MILLIONS * READER’S DIGEST * PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER * EERIE READER * PUBLIC RADIO TULSA * CHICAGO PUBLIC LIBRARY * KIRKUS REVIEWS “Feels truer and more mesmerizing than some true stories. It’s a packed time capsule that doubles as a stick of dynamite.” —THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW Opal is a fiercely independent young woman pushing against the grain in her style and attitude, Afro-punk before that term existed. Coming of age in Detroit, she can’t imagine settling for a 9-to-5 job—despite her unusual looks, Opal believes she can be a star. So when the aspiring British singer/songwriter Neville Charles discovers her at a bar’s amateur night, she takes him up on his offer to make rock music together for the fledgling Rivington Records. In early seventies New York City, just as she’s finding her niche as part of a flamboyant and funky creative scene, a rival band signed to her label brandishes a Confederate flag at a promotional concert. Opal’s bold protest and the violence that ensues set off a chain of events that will not only change the lives of those she loves, but also be a deadly reminder that repercussions are always harsher for women, especially black women, who dare to speak their truth. Decades later, as Opal considers a 2016 reunion with Nev, music journalist S. Sunny Shelton seizes the chance to curate an oral history about her idols. Sunny thought she knew most of the stories leading up to the cult duo’s most politicized chapter. But as her interviews dig deeper, a nasty new allegation from an unexpected source threatens to blow up everything. Provocative and chilling, The Final Revival of Opal & Nev features a backup chorus of unforgettable voices, a heroine the likes of which we’ve not seen in storytelling, and a daring structure, and introduces a bold new voice in contemporary fiction.

Over the years commonly referred to as "The Big Book" by White Eagle and those that have come to learn the Medicine Way from him, this is the first material written when Great Pop told White Eagle to: "Write This Book." The Medicine Way is actually seven books in one being that of: The Medicine of Prayer - The How To and Why of Prayer Earthwalk - The "How To" of being incarnate on Mother Earth Walking the Round Way - The How To of Relationships The Medicine Wheel - Not only the How To, but also the Why and What of it Mineral Spirit Medicine - Describes the Medicine and potential support from many of the different stones and minerals that White Eagle uses in his practice of the Medicine Way. Plant Spirit Medicine - Describes the Medicine and essential nature of most of the common trees and plants. Also described is the Medicine of the Spirit of common food plants as well the support one can receive from many of the herbs listed. Animal Spirit Medicine - Includes what different animals mean in vision or dreams as well as in one's daily encounters. After two decades this material has finally undergone formal editing and in the process its coverage has become expanded even further than before. Now it has finally become available in printed form in both color and black and white versions. This Book is for any and all that desire to know, and know more about Spirits, Spirituality, Medicine, and The Medicine Way.

Download or read book Crystals Jewels Stones written by Isidore Kozminsky and published by Nicolas-Hays, Inc.. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an exhaustive and comprehensive study of the lore and science of precious and semi-precious stones and crystals. Crystals have commanded the attention of thinkers, artists, mystics, magicians, astrologers, alchemists, and all who appreciate beauty. Intimately and mysteriously formed in the fires of Earth’s inner essence, what is the meaning of these exquisitely shaped and colored gifts of the sacred bounty of Nature. Occultist Isidore Kozminsky explores the use of precious and semi-precious stones in fields as far flung as healing and design, practical esoteric energy channeling and decoration, as well as in powerful magical talismans by which specific energies may be invoked, and as artistic objects of great beauty. Inspiring mythic tales are balanced with practical instructions and knowledge about the astrological sympathies of crystals and the energy work and healing properties associated with all the major categories of precious stones. From Plato to Leonardo da Vinci, Kozminsky traces crystal lore through the researches of astrologers, magi, alchemists and Hermetic philosophers--all of whom explored the use of stones in the Universal Order and Harmony of the natural world.
