Download or read book Sweet Release written by James Davison, Ph.D and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2010-06-03 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African Americans have come a long way in the difficult upward struggle from slavery to the relatively broad freedoms enjoyed today. Together, as a potent and well-knit group, they have battled endlessly in their march toward freedom.Finally, according to psychologist James Davison Jr., the last step to freedom for black Americans has arrived. But, that last step must be taken as individuals - not as a collective. In this assessment of the problems and potentials facing African Americans, Dr. Davison argues that in order for achieving individuals to advance to the final step of freedom, they must break free from the mental shackles created by the black community.The central theme of Sweet Release is that the forces that impinge most upon psychological freedom for black Americans come from within. Guilt for being successful, shame in reaction to the misbehaviors of race peers, demands to give back to the community, and accusations of trying to be white are just a few of the mechanisms that thwart psychological freedom for black persons. Dr. Davison argues that individual lifestyles, aspirations, even identities are constrained by the specter of racial unity. As a result, for black advancers, what remains to be overcome is not the system or them, but internalized community attitudes that put a choke hold on individual freedom. Unafraid of controversy or candid assessment, Dr. Davison addresses these and other thorny issues with psychological insight while offering strategies to move beyond group constrictions toward personal freedom.James Davison Jr., PhD (Sacramento, CA), is a psychologist in private practice and also works in the criminal justice system for the California State Prison system. In addition, he is the author of Prisoners of Our Past.

Download or read book The Truth written by Nova and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-07-29 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have had depression my whole life. Some days it was uncontrollable. Other days it had no effect on my days. I have pulled myself out of the pits of hell in my own mind, and believe me when I say I would have much rather died. Everything in this book was what I was feeling in the moment—the hate, the pain, and the rebirth, becoming new and leaving the old ways there. Don’t get me wrong; when you read some of the poems, you might not understand what I was going through, but I promise I am better now. If my family is reading, I’m sorry if you feel like it was never enough or the way I wrote this makes you feel uneasy or less of a person. Understand, please, that it is not my intention. I was and am only trying to work out the things in my mind. And I can only hope two things: (1) to whoever ends up reading this, there is always a way to come out stronger than this mental illness, and (2) to my family, please understand none of this means I don’t love you or have hatred toward you; that is not true. I love you. Enough of that, right. You wanted to read inside someone’s mind. Let’s get started. Let’s take a walk through a young girl’s mind.

Download or read book New Orleans Rum written by Mikko Macchione and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mix yourself a Hurricane and see New Orleans through a glass of rum. Like a drunken Mardi Gras parade, the history of New Orleans lurches from electrifying highs to heart-rending lows. Through it all, good drink was a constant - especially rum. The victory at the Battle of New Orleans was sealed with a barrel of rum, and a half-hearted implementation of Prohibition a century later certainly didn't dampen the city's spirits. From priests making tafia to modern delights like Old New Orleans and Bayou, rum has always been an integral part of the funky, sultry, crazy story of the Crescent City. Longtime historian and writer Mikko Macchione presents a witty and informative history of the city and its love affair with the sweetest of liquors.
