DOWNLOAD EBOOKGrowing up as one of fifteen children to black sharecroppers in the Jim Crow South, Samuel was raised to fight for what he believed in. From an early age, he was taught to speak out against injustice, follow his dreams, trust in God, and never forget his roots. From the Alabama plantation where his grandfather Nute was a slave, to riding the family wagon to church on Sundays, to working his way through the ranks as a factory employee in Niagara Falls, first-time author Samuel Carter shares his life story and family history with honesty and deep poignance. At times heart wrenching, and at times laugh-out-loud funny, Grandson of a Slave teaches readers that while systemic racism is still a global institution, hope, love, and perseverance will always overcome.

It wasnt until June 30, 1985 that the abduction was realized because Jimmy was supposedly on vacation with his father. Deborah (Debbie) Freels, my daughter, and Bob had been separated for almost a year. Debbie had custody of their two children, Jimmy, age eight and Dawn, age twelve. After eight months of searching, the trail led to Guatemala, Central America. If it werent for strangers and incredible luck, the search would not have been successful. The last month was spent by me in Guatemala, which I described in my notes as 30 Days of Hell. This is a true story of my experiences.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA Tell-All Memoir Exposes a Hidden Life and Hard-learned Lessons Southern. Black. Gay. Fatherless. Air Force Veteran. Ordained Methodist Minister. Master of hiding in plain sight. Cedrick Bridgeforth knows what it means to hold, hide, and wrestle with all of these identities. For years Cedrick had taken great pains to shield his full truth from the world. Then one day, at the height of his career, his entire universe came crashing down. Equal parts preacher, poet, confessor, and consummate storyteller, Alabama Grandson chronicles Cedrick's hard-fought journey to come to terms with the hidden and sometimes conflicting parts of himself. Bookended by poignant letters to his grandmother, Cedrick vulnerably depicts the suffering caused by denying his truth: You were the most influential person in my life. Yet as much as I admired and appreciated you, I did not trust you enough to say to you: "I am gay." Written over three decades after his grandmother's death and at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, Alabama Grandson asks as many questions as it answers. This memoir will bring you along for a compelling and multidirectional journey into the past in order to point the way forward. All the while, Cedrick elegantly models that there are different paths to living a fully authentic life and different ways of being a leader and agent of change in today's world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBeelzebub's Tales to His Grandson is the first volume of the All and Everything trilogy written by the mystic G. I. Gurdjieff. The All and Everything trilogy also includes Meetings with Remarkable Men and Life Is Real Only Then, When 'I Am'. This book was intended to be the main study tool for Gurdjieff's Fourth Way teachings. As Gurdjieff's idea of "work" is central to those teachings, Gurdjieff went to great lengths in order to increase the effort needed to read and understand it.The book covers many topics. Beelzebub's Tales is included in Martin Seymour-Smith's 100 Most Influential Books Ever Written, with the comment that it is "...the most convincing fusion of Eastern and Western thought that has yet been seen."
