History and intellectual pros of author/reader

Revisado: 02-09-24

Dislike Roland Martin as a reader/storyteller. However the historical research material Martin organized was authentic and compelling enough, I believe, to show white America what they fear is of their own making.

All Jokes Aside…

Revisado: 11-02-22

Kevin Hart’s narration of Summer of ‘85 was surprisingly compelling! …a masterful rendering by a comic to whom I had not given serious credit as a voice for activism.

While starting off a bit too “Kevinique” in his rhythmic, almost lyrical, speedy and comical tones, I began to enjoy and appreciate his style of delivery and the juxtaposition of several historic events uniquely erased from the African American experience were brilliantly told. All jokes aside, K Hart brings it!

Amazing Grace!

Revisado: 10-29-22

Dearly Beloveds - our own modern-day Griots, Journalists, Activits, Historians, and Storytellers are doing an Amazing job inspiring richer, deeper intrigue into our collective experiences in the telling of "Till." Intrigue that I hope will inspire a fuller grasp of American justice for [G]enerations of JAHS to come. The Grace inspired by "Til" makes possible, the seemingly impossible. We have permission to tell our truths. In the telling of "Till", our eyes are opened and the doors are open for future Griots to continue to brand the Black American experience and what equal justice under the law does or doesn't look like. These are our stories and we certainly applaud you for excercising your right to tell it like it is! Amazing!

Wake The Dead

Revisado: 10-26-22

Several writers, maybe even liberals on the subject of POTUS, by all accounts agree on the copious characteristic opaqueness of O’45 the man. Non before Maggie Haberman did fully convey to my understanding, the level of impact a mobster celeb of our own choosing, would have on the institution of President and plague,-like disease O’45 would place on our country.

Maggie’s voluminous and detailed collections of classic O’45 rhetoric revealed the origins of the disease like I’d never read before. Inner feelings and memories of my own emerged, of personal relationships gone asunder thanks to O’45.

Haberman connected so many dots that I had either forgotten or never conceived would be possible to O’45. The level of detail she provided about the ‘old guard in Queens, Al Sharpton, Mike Tyson, O’45 use of language, “the Blacks” and the BLM movement. All amazing recollections.

I nearly died laughing about her notes when O’45 criticized Don King’s well known bad breath All Brilliant retelling of stories…griot style!

Maggie Haberman’s very pointed stylized audio and soup to nuts expose’ of the ideology-less former President, had me mesmerized. I binged to get to the next chapter, and on to the next nearly without pause.

Maggie described a visual for what had to have been how he was shaped. Her delivery solidified the opinion that I had and her narration of it confirmed what I knew to be true…above all else, America loved great comic entertainment and sad but true, that he was.

Haberma’s narration of Confidence Man is not only great entertainment but fact-checked, historic references to a time before the MAGA movement and will surely wake the dead. I hung on every word

Peace, Donya Maria
