Historia
Dunbar-Ortiz adroitly challenges the founding myth of the United States and shows how policy against the Indigenous peoples was colonialist and designed to seize the territories of the original inhabitants, displacing or eliminating them. And as Dunbar-Ortiz reveals, this policy was praised in popular culture, through writers like James Fenimore Cooper and Walt Whitman, and in the highest offices of government and the military.

Great details from the author. True events that that will forever impact indigenous communities, an in depth history lesson that does not present itself in public school systems.

Jacquie Red Feather is newly sober and trying to make it back to the family she left behind in shame. Dene Oxendene is pulling his life back together after his uncle's death and has come to work at the powwow to honor his uncle's memory. Opal Viola Victoria Bear Shield has come to watch her nephew Orvil, who has taught himself traditional Indian dance through YouTube videos and will perform in public for the very first time. There will be glorious communion and a spectacle of sacred tradition and pageantry. And there will be sacrifice, and heroism, and loss.

Instant Re-play Value
Revisado: 05-29-19
A modern Native American tale that captures realistic vantage points through the lives of each characters eyes. They are somehow relative to each others story, similar to spiritual beliefs that we are all connected in glory. Life is fragile at times tough to handle, but what is living if you're not in it for the battle. Great Writing & Performance! A must read for the modern Indigenous.

Historia
More than 30 years ago, nutrition researcher T. Colin Campbell and his team at Cornell University, in partnership with teams in China and England, embarked upon the most comprehensive study ever undertaken of the relationship between diet and the risk of developing disease. What they found, when combined with findings in Campbell's laboratory, opened their eyes to the dangers of a diet high in animal protein and the unparalleled health benefits of a whole foods, plant-based diet.

Great Read. I've read Matthews other workout books and this falls along the same lines of self discipline. The book has many stories of stars who've overcome their shortcoming whether through self drvien motivation or with building a great support group. As usual, Matthews includes web links to download bonus material for purchasing his audio books. The take away from his books are always positive plus the bonus materials provide additional information or tools to help reach your goals.

For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Self Discipline Developed
Revisado: 02-11-19
To hear the authors struggles & challenges beginning as a youth, then later as an adult proves that all can overcome darker times through perseverance and determination. As a reader, the most memorable quote from the author on self discpine was "You must first battle yourself in order to find peace". Overall great read. I liked the story slash podcast audio presentation. You're a beast Goggins!

Soar Above the Rest
Revisado: 06-02-18
Great story of a native american youth facing difficult times only to view life through another persons persepctive and ultimately chose to rise above his traumatized past to become a new found youth in today's society. I was a bit confused with the timeline of events until the author redirected back to the first person story telling which made the book for an excellent read.

In this award-winning Audible Studios production, Trevor Noah tells his wild coming-of-age tale during the twilight of apartheid in South Africa. It’s a story that begins with his mother throwing him from a moving van to save him from a potentially fatal dispute with gangsters, then follows the budding comedian’s path to self-discovery through episodes both poignant and comical.

A Creative Experience
Revisado: 05-09-18
I have read other creativity books but nothing quite like this. At least not in this perspective. Quest delivers real life experiences, challenges & scenarios which he encountered in his personal life and his career as a musician. Quest using these stories to help you develop a tool to think outside the box when we tend to stay within the lines of our own better judgments when it comes to creativity. The bonus of this book is that its flooded with stories of some of your favorite musicians, producers, actors, etc. Overall a great read and absolutely a must read if you're looking for another point of view on how creativity works. Great Job Quest!

C'mon as if you needed a reason to read this awesome book that includes virtual reality future, gaming and decades of nerdy references. Wil Wheaton gives a stellar performance that will submerge you into the Oasis. The only bad part of the book is when its over.
