DOWNLOAD EBOOKWritten by the Mayor of Beaufort, SC, "Sharing Common Ground: Promises Unfilled but Not Forgotten" is a call to action for the nation to learn the iinformative untold stories of the Reconstruction Era during and following the Civil War. Understanding this period can help unshackle us from our unknown past and help us understand, where we can from, why the chaotic racial discord separates us and how through history we can rebound to be the America that promises freedom, social, legal and economic justice and opportunity for all. Having achieved the Reconstruction Era National Historical Park in his hometown in 2019, the Mayor and many who worked to attain recognition of this important period, are reaching out to assemble a network of teachers who are learning how to teach, through experiencial arts infused methods, the sensitive subject to 11-15 year old students who ask the questions about people, places and stories and then tell them to their peers, families and others in a vernacular that all can understand. Students will produce short documentary videos, visual art, and written and spoken words to delivery their messages so that others can understand. The net result will be conversations in homes, among faith based and community organizations, publications and materials for teachers to share.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn avant garde set of improvisational essays, Richard Grossinger’s The Bardo of Waking Life is a meditation on the Tibetan Buddhist bardo realm which, in popular culture, is viewed as the bridge between lives, the state people enter after death and before rebirth. This book examines waking life and its history and language as if it were a bardo state rather than ultimate reality, and thus seeks a context for life (and dreams), even as it addresses more "mundane issues" including genetic theory, the war in Iraq and George W. Bush's presidency, North Korea, advertising, global warming, Prison Industrial Culture, childhood trauma, even country western music. Written with playfulness and precision, Bardo takes a new, probing approach to all the important questions of creation, destruction, and existence. In these intellectual field notes, Grossinger proves thematically fearless as he crosses quantum mechanics with totemic hexes and draws transcendental insight from the ephemeral space-time we call daily life. If, as Tibetan cosmology holds true, all conditional realms are bardos, then the state we all share is nothing less than the bardo of waking life.
