Interiors, Advice, and Stories from 50 Amazing Black Designers

For generations, the dominant narrative about Black America has been shaped by struggle, limitation, and despair. But what if that narrative is incomplete? What if the future holds a far more powerful and hopeful story waiting to unfold?

In Why The Future Belongs To Us, author and Human Potential Architect Michael Taylor presents a bold and inspiring vision for what lies ahead. Rather than focusing on the challenges of the past, Taylor explores the emerging opportunities, cultural shifts, and transformative possibilities that are positioning Black America for unprecedented growth, influence, and impact.

Through ten compelling reasons, Taylor challenges long-held assumptions and invites readers to see the future through a new lens-one grounded in resilience, innovation, spiritual awakening, and collective empowerment. Drawing from history, personal insight, and a deep belief in human potential, he argues that the next chapter of Black America's story can be one of leadership, creativity, unity, and prosperity.

This is not a book about denying past struggles. It is a book about recognizing the extraordinary strength that has always existed within the Black community and the powerful role that strength will play in shaping the future.

Hopeful, thought-provoking, and deeply empowering, Why The Future Belongs To Us offers a refreshing and uplifting perspective for anyone who believes that the best days for Black America-and for humanity-are still ahead.

Redesign the Future of Work with Neurodiversity in Mind Brainstorm: A Guide to Neurodivergent Talent and the Future of Work is a bold, practical guide to rebuilding work from the ground up. It shows that inclusion is more than the right thing to do, it is essential to business success. With raw honesty, sharp storytelling, and real-world tools, Brainstorm challenges tired corporate narratives and equips leaders, managers, and teams to unlock overlooked talent. Drawing on the voices of people across industries and ways of thinking, including trailblazers, business leaders, and academics, it highlights how work must be built for every kind of mind. Written by Dave Thompson, a pioneering self-advocate, educator, and innovator in the field of neurodiversity employment for over a decade, this book shows readers how to: <ul> <li>Build environments that empower people across every cognitive profile</li> <li>Rethink "accommodations" as Success Enablers that fuel performance and growth</li> <li>Foster psychological safety, allyship, and trust in teams of every size</li> <li>Rethink hiring, management, and retention practices to expand your talent pipeline</li> <li>Tackle real workplace obstacles like communication breakdowns, burnout, and bias</li> </ul> For employers of all sizes and industries, Brainstorm delivers an urgent call to action: stop forcing people to fit a system that was not designed for them. Instead, rewire the system itself and watch innovation, productivity, and engagement surge, and see everyone win.

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.

'Brilliant and discursive'Antonia Fraser, Sunday TimesWinner of the FAWCETT PRIZEand EMILY TOTH AWARDIn the 2000 years since her death Cleopatra has been re-created over and over again by poets, artists and filmmakers, each time in a form that fits the prejudices and yearnings of the age that produced it. To Chaucer she was the model of a good wife, while to Cecil B.De Mille she was 'the wickedest woman in history'.This book is about the real Cleopatra, the most powerful woman in her world, but also about the legion of imaginary Cleopatras and about the sexual, racial and political messages they carry.

The new roadmap to financial longevity, from the longtime on-air financial editor on the TODAY show and AARP's personal finance columnist, Jean Chatzky: capitalize on the power of a paycheck to build a retirement you love A comfortable retirement is the American dream. Yet only 8% of people feel it's easy to achieve. Even if you have been saving money in your retirement accounts for decades, there are endless questions: Do you have enough money to retire? At what age? How much can you withdraw per year? With lifespans longer than ever, are you at risk of running out of money? The solution? A paycheck that lasts for the rest of your life: a Forever Paycheck. With the power of a Forever Paycheck comes a simple, revelatory truth: you can spend more, and enjoy your life more, than you think you can.&nbsp; It’s a revolutionary concept.

But when their money comes as a steady monthly paycheck, they feel much more confident in using it to enjoy life to the fullest.&nbsp;Many find they can spend double – with no risk of running out. The tools and the financial products exist to build a Forever Paycheck that’s right for you. Whether you plan to work to 50 or 75, have a small 401(k) or a large stock portfolio, like to take risks with your money or always play it safe, bestselling author and financial expert Jean Chatzky provides a step-by-step plan for making your money work for you. &nbsp; Written in collaboration with AARP, The Forever Paycheck is for you if:&nbsp; <ul><li>You want to be able to confidently spend in retirement without worrying about running out of money</li><li>The thought of your paycheck ending fills you with dread</li><li>You want a sanity check that your retirement plan will sustain you</li><li>You’re 40, 50 or 60 and really haven’t thought about a retirement plan yet</li><li>You want to be able to leave something for your kids (and/or causes) and still enjoy your money yourself</li></ul> Filled with insights on the changing landscape of financial products and practical advice for how to actually use them, The Forever Paycheck is packed with the information you need to plan for the future you want.

This groundbreaking book shows how cows' choices have influenced the economic, agricultural, and socio-political development of the Americas. Tracing the interconnected transformations of cattle, land, and labor from the 18th-century colonial Caribbean to the early national period of the 19th century to the present day, Kettler and Yingling demonstrate how cows impact on nearly every major aspect of development in the Americas, including colonization, slavery, our ability to objectify animals we consume, our current foodways, environmental degradation, and the climate emergency. Bringing together research from many fields, but proceeding always in a straightforward, chronological, historical manner underrepresented in other areas of animal studies, this book ultimately restores cattle as subjects of their own lives who in seeking to escape exploitation have deeply affected the legal, property, and geographical frameworks that haunt us today.
