Throughout all of her life's experiences, author Angela Michelle
has learned that both happiness and suffering are ubiquitous. In
"Choice," she shares a compilation of journal entries and
narratives discussing some of her life's most intense moments:
being beaten nearly to death; having paranormal dreams and hearing
voices validated by God; experiencing the brutal murder of her
father; enduring flashbacks of childhood molestation; being raped
in her own home; suffering through a frightening pregnancy and
childbirth; and receiving visits from angels.
This memoir shares her thoughts and feelings as she moved
through life, facing her fears and learning from all of her
experiences. Choice narrates how she discovered there was a purpose
for and a lesson learned from each event-a challenge to overcome
and a new direction to follow.

Michelle and how she faced her crazy life, but also serves to show
that, through both the good and the bad, life has purpose.
One of the best known consensus or synthesis historians, Daniel
J. Boorstin crosses disciplinary boundaries by writing about
universities and students, lawyers and historians, history of
science and everyday phenomena, material and popular culture,
libraries and literacy, film and theater, statistics and words,
airwaves and highways, and generally speaking, the past, present,
and world to come. This bibliography brings together works by and
about Boorstin, showing the volume, range, and importance of his
contribution to the study of American history.
With more than 1,300 entries, the bibliography records a history
of Daniel Boorstin in print and non-print from 1930 to 1999. It
covers a multitude of types of entries, including monographs, book
reviews by and about Boorstin, newspaper and scholarly articles,
manuscript and archival material, videocassettes, sound reels,
Websites, and CD-ROMs. Entries are selectively annotated, in many
instances using direct quotes from Boorstin, to give the reader a
snapshot understanding of the works cited. This book will be the
definitive Boorstin bibliography.
Political Poetry as Discourse examines the works of the political
poets John Greenleaf Whittier and Ebenezer Elliott, drawing
comparisons to contemporary hip hoppers who take their words from
local newspapers and other discursive sources that they read, hear,
and observe. Local presses and news vehicles stand as cultural
material forms that supply poets with words, particularly words
that congeal into patterns of language, allowing the creation of a
poetic discourse. As readers of these poets apply techniques and
theories of discourse analysis, they reveal how poets borrow, lift,
hijack, or resituate words from one or more different genres to use
as tools of political change. Leonard engages with the critical
toolboxes of content analysis, semiosis, and deconstruction to
demonstrate how to critically investigate and interrogate the
images, sounds and words not just of politically engaged poets, but
also of any disseminator of culture and news. Moving beyond theory
into praxis, this book becomes a model of its own transgressive
premise by thinking, analyzing, writing, and teaching against the
grain. Its focus on language as unbounded discourse makes this book
a relevant and insightful demonstration in democratic pedagogy and
in teaching for transformation.
