Felton E: The Search for Black Mecca

The Search for Black Mecca

Notes on Heartbreak

Three Wild Dogs (and the truth)

A Feeding the Soul Book

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“America’s Mom” Tabitha Brown presents an inspirational guide for encouraging positive changes in your life—one day and one challenge at a time.I did a new thing today!Years ago, Tabitha Brown started a 30-day personal challenge that she called “I Did a New Thing!” The challenge was simple. Every day she would do something she’d never done before. Sometimes it was something small like trying a new food. Other times, she’d step it up a bit and speak to someone she’d never spoken to before. Still other times, she’d do the hard thing—facing a fear that she had, like having that tough conversation with a friend. No matter what it was, the point was that she was going to take a leap of faith and watch God open up a new lane for her.One of the “new things” she tried was a vegan challenge. She’d been struggling with illness for nearly a year and was desperately searching for healing. She challenged herself to eat vegan every day for thirty days, and six years later, her life has never been the same—all because she decided to do a new thing.In I Did a New Thing, Tab shares her own stories and those of others, alongside gentle guidance and encouragement to create these incredible changes for yourself and see what good can come from them. Whether that means having the hard conversation or trying for a promotion or simply wearing something different or doing something kind for someone else, Tab has a plan for you: Try one new thing, every single day, for thirty days. You don’t have to wait until Monday or the beginning of a new month or year to get started. There’s no set time and place or any extra preparation required. All you have to do is show up for yourself. And that can start right now.

NAMED A TOP BOOK OF 2024 BY AMAZON AND WASHINGTON POST“Hannah Durkin lets the enslaved speak for themselves, and they tell a story not only of unimaginable suffering but also of courage and survival.”—Wall Street Journal“The Survivors of the Clotilda, a comprehensive account of one of the most important parts of American history, is a triumph.”—Booklist (starred review)"A welcome history of defiance and survival."—Kirkus ReviewsJoining the ranks of Rebecca Skloot’s The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks and Zora Neale Hurston’s rediscovered classic Barracoon, an immersive and revelatory history of the Clotilda, the last slave ship to land on US soil, told through the stories of its survivors—the last documented survivors of any slave ship—whose lives diverged and intersected in profound ways.The Clotilda, the last slave ship to land on American soil, docked in Mobile Bay, Alabama, in July 1860—more than half a century after the passage of a federal law banning the importation of captive Africans, and nine months before the beginning of the Civil War. The last of its survivors lived well into the twentieth century. They were the last witnesses to the final act of a terrible and significant period in world history.In this epic work, Dr. Hannah Durkin tells the stories of the Clotilda’s 110 captives, drawing on her intensive archival, historical, and sociological research. The Survivors of the Clotilda follows their lives from their kidnappings in what is modern-day Nigeria through a terrifying 45-day journey across the Middle Passage; from the subsequent sale of the ship’s 103 surviving children and young people into slavery across Alabama to the dawn of the Civil Rights movement in Selma; from the foundation of an all-Black African Town (later Africatown) in Northern Mobile—an inspiration for writers of the Harlem Renaissance, including Zora Neale Hurston—to the foundation of the quilting community of Gee’s Bend—a Black artistic circle whose cultural influence remains enormous.An astonishing, deeply compelling tapestry of history, biography, and social commentary, The Survivors of the Clotilda is a tour de force that deepens our knowledge and understanding of the Black experience and of America and its tragic past.&nbsp;The Survivors of the Clotilda includes 30 artworks and photographs.

The Lost Stories of the Last Captives of the American Slave Trade

The Survivors of the Clotilda

In this humorous memoir, New York Times bestselling author Father James Martin, SJ shares summer by summer, job by job, how a former paperboy, lawnmower, busboy, dishwasher, caddy, usher, waiter, bank teller, assembly-line worker, corporate tool became a Jesuit priest.Work in Progress is a snapshot of several years--from a boy, then a teenager, and finally a young adult--of being thrown into a series of jobs that Father Martin had zero training. He never once set foot in a restaurant kitchen before working as a busboy; never stepped onto a golf course before working as a caddy; and never once seen a factory floor before working as an assembly-line worker. He almost always felt uncomfortable, unsettled, and uneasy. But, we've all done jobs we didn't love because we needed the money.This is a come of age in the 1960s and 1970s story but not all aspects. It is a lighthearted tale for readers that enjoy personal narratives and is unlike anything Father Martin has written before. As he puts it, "This is a spiritual memoir from a different angle, then told "slant" as Emily Dickson might say."Each chapter features treasured photos of memories and milestones throughout Father Martin's life. If you're an aficionado of snafus, you won't be disappointed. He's not the hero in these stories, more a hapless teenager who learns in each job, even the ones he loathes, something about the value of work, about what it means to be an adult, about people, and about life overall.Work in Progress teaches us small lessons that we should all practice: work hard, be on time, don't be mean, apologize when you need to, forgive frequently, ask if you don't know something, don't misuse power, pay attention to those struggling, be kind, and listen.

Never Can Say Goodbye

Joining the growing Black creative movement currently refashioning horses and cowboy imagery, a thoughtful, probing exploration of the shared history of Blackness and horses which reveals what its image can teach us about nationhood, race, and culture. Drawing on their personal history as a former urban equestrian, Black queer person, and child of Jamaican and Filipino immigrants, essayist and art critic Bitter Kalli contends the horse should be regarded as a critical source of power and identity in Black life.In a series of astute essays, Kalli explores the work of Black artists and influencers from Beyoncé to filmmakers Tiona Nekkia-McClodden and Jeymes Samuel and explores their own life-long relationship to equines. Alternatively playful and critical, meditative and biting, these essays navigate time and place—from the shadows of racetracks where jockey culture and the ubiquity of “equestrian chic” was born, to the reclamation—or, in Lil Nas X’s word, yeehawification—of the image of the cowboy, to the fraught connections of equestrian sport to slavery, US militarization, and European colonial domination. At heart, Kalli probes a central question: What does it mean for Black people to ride and tend horses in the context of a culture that has also used horses against them?Throughout these essays, Kalli reflects on the experience of being the only Black member of the equestrian team at Columbia University, and how the aesthetics, ethos, and practice of horse stewardship contributed to their understanding of gender, sexuality, and radical community building. Mounted moves beyond the reductive stereotypes that dominate our perceptions of “horse people”—the swaggering masculinity, snooty elitism, and assumed whiteness—to reveal how Black people relate to the image and physical presence of the horse in nature and culture, considering violence, sexualization, power, migration, and more through its image.

Untitled Bogdanovich Memoir

Paulina Susana Rubio Dosamantes (Paulina Rubio) is a Mexican singer, songwriter, actress, model and businesswoman. Referred to as the "Queen of Latin Pop" and "The Latina Madonna", Rubio has sold over 15 million records making her one of the best-selling Latin music artists of all-time. She has over 1.5 million Instagram followers, 5.4 million Facebook followers and over 11 million Twitter followers, making her the third most popular Mexican on Twitter. Her North America tours sell out in a matter of hours in cities such as Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago and NYC. The story behind one of Latin America's brightest singer/artist/actress and businesswoman, this is the official autobiography from the beloved Mexican-American singer..A no hold barred account of Paulina's incredible high (sold out tours worldwide) to soul-shattering lows (two divorces, both on account of cheating husbands ), Paulina, for the first time, opens her heart and soul in these pages for her millions of fans and recounts the crucial moments in her past, revealing her experiences with body image issues, making her way in a male-dominated industry, raising her children as a single mother, and learning that she could depend only on herself.Growing up as the daughter of Mexican media royalty (Paulina's mother is a well-known actress and father is a Spanish-born lawyer), Paulina knew early on she was destined for greatness. As a teenager, she joined the wildly popular Mexican girl group Timbiriche and later as a solo artist and actress reached the pinnacle of her the music industry, and she is often referred to as the Latin Madonna, For their part, many journalists and critics have assured that Rubio's great success has also been influenced by the events of her personal life. Since she began her career, the public had a great interest in exploring her personal life. El País journalist Elena Reina says that her success has been thanks to a "brilliant marketing strategy based on her private life."Rubio's shows are also known to be expensive. Her performance at the Santa Cruz de Tenerife gala in Spain in February 2020 became the most expensive performance ever paid by an artist at the event. The carnival owner disclosed that "the Mexican singer was offered 103,000 euros for an 8-minute performance."
