Have you ever wondered "Why did I do that?" or "Why can't I just control my behavior?" Others may judge our reactions and think, "What's wrong with that person?" When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question. Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”

It is important to see that we are not bad or good, but our traits are products of our past. This book can give relief to many troubled souls.

In Blues City, Ishmael Reed, one of our most brilliant essayists, takes us on a tour of Oakland, exploring its fascinating history, its beautiful hills and waterfronts, and its odd cultural juxtapositions. He takes us into a year in the life of this amazing city, to black cowboy parades and Indian powwows, to Black Panther reunions and Gay Pride concerts, to a Japanese jazz club where a Lakota musician plays Coltrane’s "Naima".

Not Present Day Oakland
Revisado: 06-04-04
I did not approach Mr. Reed's book ignorant of his POV having read his first book, Freelance Pallbearers, more than 30 years ago, but I expected this book about Oakland to be a little more balanced. I was wrong. Mind you, I am not insensitive to the challenges cities such as Oakland face having been born and raised in Detroit and worked and still do business in Oakland, but come on. This book ascribes value to contributions made to the city based on the color of one's skin... white bad, everyone else good. There isn't a page Mr. Reed fails to bash Mayor of Oakland and former Governor of California, Jerry Brown, arguably one of the most liberal, progressive politicians in the last quarter century. He even makes derogatory comments about Jerry Brown's physical appearance. A large portion of the book is spent glorifying the history of the Black Panthers and ends with a verbatim bus tour narration of historical Black Panther Party sites with heated 60's rhetoric intact. The Oakland I know is one of the most multiethnic, diverse, racially tolerant cities in the US. The City of Oakland has evolved beyond the racially polarized city depicted in this book.
