'No one. No dark knight in shining armour. Went through all my
twenties thinking "don't worry he'll come." I'm almost forty now,
and he still hasn't, has he?' David is in love with King. But King
is a superhero. After an unexpected encounter, David plunges
himself into a world of sex, drugs and hero worship in the hope of
being rescued, until fantasy and reality merge with devastating
consequences. Danny Lee Wynter's debut play BLACK SUPERHERO is a
brutal, unflinching and funny portrait of one man's life spiralling
out of control, in an age where our idols are Kings and our
superheroes Gods. It is premiered at the Royal Court Theatre,
London, in March 2023.
This book is a compilation of essays from students coming from
countless backgrounds, many of which are historically
underrepresented in the Western academic practice of science. Each
chapter discusses language and cultural barriers to understanding
Western science, what is public engagement in science, and what are
ethical considerations scientists should make as people, whether
the lab coat is on or off. These perspectives diminish the
simplicity of making science "easy & fun" (hence our neologism,
"unsimplify") in order to engage the public and challenge
scientists, medical practitioners, journalists, and science
educators to think more critically about who makes up "the public"
that they serve.
Danny Lee Ingram...Dangling from a rope in an Appalachian cave or
trembling from vertigo on a canyon ledge, wrestling a chain-scarred
boulder or arguing with a wily Leprechaun, Ingram's short story
characters bring to life humor, challenge, regret, and hope. After
decades of procrastination, a field worker finally decides to
attend his high school reunion. Another character seeks
understanding of a journey into the Southern river wilds to evict
its backwoods inhabitants. In contrast, some stories deal with the
laughter in life, such as a frustrated student who never seems to
have the correct time and an inebriated musician tackling an
unfamiliar delta dish. These stories are sure to bring chuckles and
tears, reflection and foresight, and you'll find yourself reading
them, sharing them, again and again.
Danny Lee Ingram...Images prevail in this book of poems, poems that
stimulate the senses and range from haiku to blank verse to free
verse on the cutting edge. Break-ups, reality checks, and
tongue-in-cheek humor all present sharp edges that cut through the
mask, pierce the skin, or tickle the fancy. Reviewers International
Organization: Poetry emerges from crystallized perception of one's
immediate world which becomes a singular story for both writer and
reader. That in turn engages and elicits more perception and more
story. Glass Cuts the Shadow does just that, leaving a
multi-flavored appreciation for the endless variety of living
experience...Unique in kind, each poem in this short collection
promises to awaken your shadow and gently or firmly cut to clarity
and change. Fascinating!
Es la confesion de Danny Lee. Luego de haber pasado por un periodo
tormentoso de su vida, donde se encuentra solo y en oscuridad,
buscando la luz en el Padre Celestial. Este lo coloca en lo que el
llama su Horno de Fuego como parte de su proceso. Alli se enfrenta
a su propio ser, a un pasado olvidado que marco su vida, confiesa
secretos y lo aprendido por su experiencia en la depresion, el
bullying, (Acoso Escolar, Intimidacion, Agresion contra otro ser),
pensamientos suicidas, el matrimonio, la identidad personal, entre
otros temas. El proposito de este libro es crear conciencia sobre
la depresion, asi tambien una nueva expectativa a aquel que
contempla el suicidio y dar herramientas que permitan al lector
conocer su identidad en Cristo. Pero ademas el deseo mas profundo
es que de alguna manera les ayude a conocer la misericordia de Dios
por medio de la fe y el conocimiento humano. Y asi tambien el
lector se permita ampliar sus conocimientos y crecimiento
espiritual.
