    In a world that is increasingly being aware, in a political and cultural sense, of issues surrounding marginalised communities, this book gives a riveting account of the history, culture and politics of the Olukumi people, a marginalised Yoruba community unlike others that had hitherto been the subject of mainstream literature and debates.The Olukumi people are a bilingual (both Yoruba and Ibo) and sophisticated Black African community who were the first humans to inhabit their indigenous homeland but continue to be marginalised and discriminated by the majority newly arrived neighbours. The community practiced female to female marriages long before minority rights (like the LGBTQIA+ rights) came to be recognised even in so-called advanced Western countries like America and in Europe. It is because the Olukumis face appalling discrimination and deprivation at home that they continue to migrate. Yet, their culture of respect for minorities and tolerance for diverse opinions still survive.This book is about war and diplomacy. It is also about migration and settlement as well as a people's determination for survival and coexistence. It is told from an exclusively Olukumi perspective and written by an Olukumi indigene.

    This book covers many questions about how we as a country got to Black American racism. As I found more and more answers, I realized how many of them were totally new to me and how I felt that I had been so deceived about so much of our history. After talking to many people, Black and white, I knew that it wasn't just me who had been deceived. There is so much that has been done to Black Americans over the ages, not just slavery, that I felt everyone could understand better if various truths were revealed. One Black young man I discussed this with seemed to visibly feel better about himself just hearing some of these basic truths.Eugenics, I believe, was worse than slavery. Eugenics founder, Galton, was a first cousin to Charles Darwin. This was all related to Malthus, who decided in 1795 that overpopulation was a dire emergency. Eugenics was the answer to who should be allowed to live or reproduce in order to keep the world population down. The geologic timetable, evolution, overpopulation, and eugenics all came about in the early 1800s before any carbon dating. Who is still pushing this, and how does it all relate to American racism?

    When thinking about poetry, we think of the old poets we had to study in school. While poetry has developed throughout the years, it still has the same meaning: to express feelings or experiences in a creative way. For some, it's the only way to express themselves. While at times they can be confusing, if you really listen to what the words are saying, you should understand the meaning.

    This book shows the automatic, spontaneous, intelligent design from a feedback loop between the right hemisphere matching by form and the resulting sacred fractal geometry of self-similar sexual mimicry in the four-dimensional human body. He shows how this is done through the ASMR and thrill intelligence. The "missing link" is no longer missing! His book is a magnum opus on the alchemy of this subject.

    I've been told that this work, The Light of Life, is a very timely and meaningful piece of work, giving the reader something to reflect on and think about, with poignant reminders of time and change and sharp feelings of regret, as the term itself invokes a spiritual connection and reasoning.One might ask oneself: "Who puts the light in life?" "Where do we find knowledge, understanding, and wisdom, as light is knowledge and darkness is ignorance?" We slow life down when sharing our words and thoughts through our emotions and feelings in the light our Creator made and gave to the system of this world.For if one never talks about the light, who then will know about it? That there is light in everything we experience and find our way through and no matter how much darkness we endure, it will never overpower the light, as seen in Christ, the blessed light of life.

    You'd think they'd hand out maps or life strategy plans, wouldn't you? No one I ever knew had a map or even a guidebook for life. No three-point outlines. No "Sit down here and let me tell you how this works" kind of advice either. So how was I to know? I just jumped right in, like I did with everything else in my life. Didn't question how or why...just did it! That had always been my way of doin' things from the start. "Just do it." Even before the Nike commercials.Did ya ever wonder why our federal or state court systems don't make you take a marriage test or a kid-raisin' test? Seems to me like that's way more important to the welfare and safety of our society than drivin' a Lexus or a Dodge Ram TufTruck. You have to go the courthouse in any state in America to get a marriage license, but anyone can have a baby and keep it to raise without any kind of previous experience or license. Like I said, no how-to manual. So how does anybody know how to keep a marriage going for a lifetime or raise one, two, three, or more little helpless babies into grown adults fit to govern, heal, lead, and protect our society?Well, I didn't have a manual. No license. No mentor. I just jumped right in with my heart and soul and did the best I could bein' young as I was and all. I was hardly grown myself. Certainly in no way wise to the world or rich enough to get education past high school. At seventeen, I graduated from a little country school with thirty-one kids like me who thought they knew more than they actually did. A few years later, we learned that we really didn't know much at all.Fresh and new at life and ready to jump right in and start livin' it on my own, I was ready!

    Her fingers were like snakes. The tips of each finger darted here and there across the surface of the bright glass ball as if on their own accord. Josh watched her fingers move in strange fascination. He thought he would begin to see a pattern if he watched long enough, but one didn't seem to form. He still watched it transfixed, however.Occasionally, a finger would strike out on the other side of the ball before it got dragged back to where she was sitting."Interesting. Very interesting," she whispered to herself.

    This book is based on the experiences I lived through and acquired knowledge to survive the changes that transpire--first how we had respect for those who enforced law and order and now are treated like dirt. It expresses how our young men and women form gangs to make their lives more dangerous without concern for themselves and how our government lies to us to get away with its corrupting way of running our country's affairs.
