Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone believes that the future is Utopia. Nothing goes wrong, peace is maintained and World War -III never happens. I can tell you first hand, that is false. Forget everything you ever knew about the future because it’s never going to happen. The air is toxic and one whiff can kill you. We have nutrient injecting boxes that we use a substitute for food since a meal is too expensive. Forget water since you’ll not find a drop of it. The earth is a barren waste land where only the largest cities have stepped up to survive. Under the protection of the Dome we hide from them, they who have lost humanity. All this made to be by one mistake, only one. But we have learned an important lesson: It is never too late to fix a mistake. This is my story of how it came to be, my story of how it’s going to change. This is my path, A Path to Change Yesterday.

A story of Black queer history, love, loss, and learning to stay in the moment before it passes you by. Weeks ago, Andre Cobb received a much-needed liver transplant. He's ready for his life to finally begin, until one night, when he passes out and wakes up somewhere totally unexpected...in 1969, where he connects with a magnetic boy named Michael. And then, just as suddenly as he arrived, he slips back to present-day Boston, where the family of his donor is waiting to explain that his new liver came with a side effect—the ability to time travel. And they've tasked their youngest son, Blake, with teaching Andre how to use his unexpected new gift. Andre splits his time bouncing between the past and future. Between Michael and Blake. Michael is everything Andre wishes he could be, and Blake, still reeling from the death of his brother, Andre's donor, keeps him at arm's length despite their obvious attraction to each other. Torn between two boys, one in the past and one in the present, Andre has to figure out where he belongs—and more importantly who he wants to be—before the consequences of jumping in time catch up to him and change his future for good.

Download or read book What Can I Do written by Jane Fonda and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A call to action from Jane Fonda, one of the most inspiring activists of our time, urging us to wake up to the looming disaster of climate change and equipping us with the tools we need to join her in protest In 2019, daunted by the looming disaster of climate change and inspired by Greta Thunberg, Naomi Klein, and student climate strikers, Jane Fonda asked herself one question: What can I do? Jane Fonda, one of the most influential activists of our time, moved to Washington, D.C., and has since led thousands of people in demonstrations on Capitol Hill. In launching Fire Drill Fridays, Fonda teamed up with Greenpeace, leading climate scientists, and community organizers not only to understand what’s at stake, but to equip all of us with the education and tools we need to join her in protest. What Can I Do? isn’t a wish list—it’s a to-do list. So many of us recognize the urgency in stemming the tide of climate change but aren’t sure where to start. Our window of opportunity to act is quickly closing. And it isn’t only Earth’s life-support systems that are unraveling, so too is our social fabric. This is going to take an all-out war on drilling, fracking, deregulation, racism, misogyny, colonialism, and despair—all at the same time. The problems we face now require every one of us to join the fight for not only our immediate future, but for the future of generations to come. 100% of the author's net proceeds from What Can I Do? have gone to Greenpeace

Download or read book Yesterday s Self written by Andreea Deciu Ritivoi and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2002-08-15 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The state of being called nostalgia has a history fraught with ambiguity and poetical connotation. In the late 17th century, nostalgic reminiscences were thought to be the symptoms of a deadly disease that shook one's mind and body. Today, we view nostalgia not as a medical condition, but as a bittersweet recollection of one's past joys and sorrows—the memories and treasures of an earlier self. And yet, there remains a category of individuals for whom such recollection can be seriously problematic: immigrants. In Yesterday's Self, Andreea Ritivoi explores the philosophical and historical dimensions of nostalgia in the lives of immigrants, forging a connection between current trends in the philosophy of identity and intercultural studies. The book considers such questions as, Does attachment to one's native culture preclude or merely influence adaptation into a new culture? Do we fashion our identity in interdependence with others, or do we shape it in a non-contingent frame? Is it possible to assimilate in an unfamiliar world without risking self-alienation? Ritivoi's response: nostalgia is both the poison and the cure in such situations. Documenting the tribulations of sojourners and immigrants, Yesterday's Self illustrates how and why the cultural adjustment of immigrants can only happen when personal identity is understood as a quest for continuity in one's life story, even alongside the most radical cultural rupture. Ultimately, reflection on the nostalgic experience reveals insights into the nature of the self and its dynamic engagement with otherness and difference.

Download or read book Yesterday s Voices Today s Straight Talk written by J. O. Rogers and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yesterday’s Voices, Today’s Straight Talk By: J. O. Rogers In 1965, J. O. Rogers published Blues and Ballads of a Black Yankee—a Journey with Sad Sam in Verse, for which Whitney M. Young Jr., then Executive Director of the National Urban League, wrote the Foreword. That book of poetry chronicled, in verse, the voice and feelings of some of the people he encountered during his volunteer work as spokesperson for NECAP, the North End Community Action Project. NECAP was the first and most active student and citizens’ civil rights organization in Hartford and Central Connecticut during the 1960s. Yesterday’s Voices is the last of his unpublished poems from that era. The voices of the downtrodden, disenfranchised, and those denied opportunity can still be heard today in many places in the United States. And, as it was in the '60s, the protests are mostly peaceful and there remains a strong feeling of hope that the nation and the world have the will and desire for change. Today’s Straight Talk is composed of verses written in the past several years about historical, political, social, past and current problems, attitudes, conditions and feelings. They are easy to read and clearly stated. The only way we can strengthen our democracy and participate in establishing those human values and virtues that are endangered is to be honest in expressing our thoughts and actions and to communicate with each other using simply stated "straight talk".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In life, we all experience painful events. Hearts get broken, a friend lets us down, and the death of a loved one brings the desolation of grief. Sadly, some life journeys also include abuse, harm, betrayal or terrifying situations. How we cope afterwards depends on many factors, but trauma often creates an emotional wound. As time passes, some healing occurs naturally. Yet trauma often remains in the psyche for months, years or even decades. Carrying an emotional wound makes life more complicated. However, everyone can begin to feel better, lighter and happier. Healing starts with a deeper understanding of what happened, compassion, self-love and renewed self-esteem. Heal Yesterday’s Trauma dives into common areas of difficulties experienced in life. Each chapter explores how trauma hinders happiness and how to turn it around. Client stories—as well as those of the author’s—show how they released their pain. There are also exercises, tools and wisdom about becoming emotionally savvy, restoring boundaries and working with anger without exploding. The book includes a compassionate exploration of forgiveness and advice on how to heal a broken heart, as well as how to find peace after the death of a loved one. The book's theme is to help people re-find their inner happiness.
