tribe of sharecroppers from the poorest pocket of poverty in the most impoverished
state in America, to prosperity beyond their wildest dreams. In less than a half
century, the

are seeking to partner today.

|  A Cheating Man's Heart by Derrick Jaxn (Author) (Nov 14, 2013) Paperback, Kindle Edition ~ With his witty, humorous, and heartfelt writing style that took the social media world virally by storm, Derrick Jaxn (Author) delivers another lesson in love wrapped in the emotionally transparent perspective of a troubled man. Shawn Fletcher, a former college football phenom turned successful entrepreneur, is in need of the very thing he's never proven to be ready for: love. To finally get to the heart of the issue, his therapist goes digging into a closet full of skeletons that neither of them were ready for. Shawn opens up about going to college and meeting Jazmin, the bodacious vixen from Atlanta with a slick tongue and vicious curves. They tame their sexual rendezvous into a genuine friendship shortly before Danielle comes and stakes claim on Shawn's heart. Everything seems perfect until his commitment to Danielle nearly costs Jazmin her life. Shawn wants to fix things but knows he can't be in two places at once; but can he make his heart play by the same rules? Shawn is a hometown football hero with a promising future and a knack for learning his lessons the hard way. He never got into much trouble growing up, thanks in large part to his mother's belt, but now that he's in college, that's all about to change. The line between commitment to what he wants for his future and loyalty to what was there from the beginning gets blurred when Danielle and Jazmin come into his life. He then learns first-hand that when dealing with matters of the heart, trial and error proves to be more like Russian Roulette; a dangerous game where second chances aren't guaranteed. |

the Human Race by
Jon Stewart,
David Javerbaum,
Rory Albanese, and
Steve Bodow (Sep 21, 2010) Editions:
Hardcover,
Audio CD,
Audible Audio Edition ~ Where do we come from? Who created us? Why
are we here? These questions have puzzled us since the dawn of time, but when
it became apparent to
Jon Stewart and the
writers of The Daily Show that the
world was about to end, they embarked on a massive mission to write a book that
summed up the human race: What we looked like; what we accomplished; our achievements
in society, government, religion, science and culture -- all in a tome of approximately
256 pages with lots of color photos, graphs and charts. After two weeks of hard
work, they had their book.
Earth (The Book) is the definitive guide to our species.
With their trademark wit, irreverence, and intelligence, Stewart and his team
will posthumously answer all of life's most hard-hitting questions, completely
unburdened by objectivity, journalistic integrity, or even accuracy. |

|  Virgin to the Life by John Collins (Author) (Mar 3, 2013) Kindle Edition Auto-delivered wirelessly, Paperback ~ I’ve built up walls for protection with only one entrance –an impractical, artificial, invisible force field per say. I’m wondering why we as black gay men feel lonely seventy percent of the time, why we go through our “coming out” alone, worried about how we’ll be perceived and received. Many of us, me included, keep our friendships and relationships to ourselves unable to share ourselves with our family, recreating new family members we label friends, whom at times we treat as strangers because of our own demons. So once again you grapple with the spirit of loneliness... Then you meet “him” and your world changes for a moment. Nothing else matters as you lose yourself in this one person. You lose yourself – never thinking that one day tragedy will strike and you will lose whom you thought was the love of your life. That dude, your rib, that one guy that has you so open, you disregard the use of latex… But who can you turn to like the straight folk when things go sour, when you have talked your best friend’s ear off about it pretending to be so over it, when you are all prayed out, when you’ve listened to every single sad song in your music collection, where do you turn when you really want to reach out to your mother – the one who held you, kissed your “boo-boos” and made you feel better but now can’t because she doesn’t agree with who you are? Why has that unconditional love become conditional? Once again, you find yourself in this too familiar place of loneliness and despair. What the hell happened? Then you remember. It all comes flooding back to you... how you met your boys, and how you met his black ass… |  I'd Rather We Got Casinos: And Other Black Thoughts by Larry Wilmore (Author) (Hardcover - Jan 20, 2009), Audio CD. Within these pages are the musings, the revelations, the ruminations, and the reflections of the incomparable Larry Wilmore. | Featured Authors |
