When Professor Bernadette Atuahene moved to Detroit, she planned to study the city’s squatting phenomenon. What she accidentally found was too urgent to ignore. Her neighbors, many of whom had owned their homes for decades, were losing them to property tax foreclosure, leaving once bustling Black neighborhoods blighted with vacant homes. Through years of dogged investigation and research, Atuahene uncovered a system of predatory governance, where public officials raise public dollars through laws and processes that produce or sustain racial inequity.

Learning about Dick Goodwin
Revisado: 05-06-24
I loved the recap of the 60s, the life of two writers, the sweet marriage of two opposites.

To grow up in the 1950s was to enter a world of polarized national alliances, nuclear threat, and destabilized social hierarchies. To be a privileged white girl in conservative, segregated Virginia was to be expected to adopt a willful blindness to the inequities of race and the constraints of gender. For young Drew Gilpin Faust, the acceptance of both female subordination and racial privilege proved intolerable and galvanizing. Urged to become “well adjusted" and to fill the role of a poised young lady that her upbringing imposed, she found resistance was the necessary price of survival.

Intense times
Revisado: 09-24-23
We can only hope that this generation of students will similarly step forward to defend democracy. Author well represents the urgency of the era, in which we participated in student strikes. None of us thought Nixon would extend the war for political purposes. It is not a cultural era we want to return to.

From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller This Town, the eyewitness account of how the GOP collaborated with Donald Trump to transform Washington’s “swamp” into a gold-plated hot tub—and a onetime party of rugged individualists into a sycophantic personality cult.

In this searing memoir, Congressman Jamie Raskin tells the story of the forty-five days at the start of 2021 that permanently changed his life—and his family’s—as he confronted the painful loss of his son to suicide, lived through the violent insurrection in our nation’s Capitol, and led the impeachment effort to hold President Trump accountable for inciting the political violence.

Right on Raskin
Revisado: 01-29-22
Jamie Raskin invokes the humanitarian spirit of his son to infuse intellect, spirit and the telling of Jamie’s performance as impeachment manager after the insurrection promoted and incited by Donald Trump. He is unabashed of his feelings of loss (of his talented son) and thus helps any reader who has ever experienced a jolting sorrow.

Completely Believable
Revisado: 05-20-20
The creative flow as described by Woody Allen and his membership in the artistic community is a wonderfully inspiring story full of young actors who are now mature and valued veterans of the industry. I immediately rewatched Purple Rose of Cairo when reminded that Jeff Daniels was in it. Sadly, personality disordered Mia was a part of his incredibly life. His recounting of the facts of the situation are totally believable.

On April 20, 1999, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold walked into Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado. Over the course of minutes, they would kill 12 students and a teacher and wound 24 others before taking their own lives. For the last 16 years, Sue Klebold, Dylan's mother, has lived with the indescribable grief and shame of that day. How could her child, the promising young man she had loved and raised, be responsible for such horror? And how, as his mother, had she not known something was wrong?

Suicude Prevention is for Suicide/ Murder too
Revisado: 03-05-18
This story is essential to the gun discussion. Tho complex it is clear that brain health issues that follow a dysfunctional suicidal track can become suicide/murder if the seed is planted through publicity, weapons of war readily accessible for maximum devastation, and culture/environment of rejection present. Sue Klebold writes from the heart with academic precision—a must read.
