Book Description
The 25th Anniversary Edition of Keith Green's inspiring biography, revised and updated by his wife, Melody. This expanded biography contains many added stories and insights, never before published photos, extra selections from Keith's private journals, and glimpses into Melody's season of grieving and raising their two surviving children on her own. He was only twenty-eight when he died in a plane crash with two of his small children, but singer/songwriter Keith Green had already created a legacy of music and inspiration that would outlive him. A spiritual revolutionary, he found freedom through Jesus, not religion, and spent his last years convincing others to refuse to accept the status quo and instead to bring compassion and honesty back to the church. He touched people through vibrant lyrics in songs like "Your Love Broke Through," "You Put This Love In My Heart," and "Asleep In The Light." Last Days Ministries, which he and his wife Melody founded, went on to challenge thousands of people to take to the mission fields of the world. Now, on the 25th anniversary of his death, Melody has updated her husband's biography with new photos, essays from current musicians who were influenced by Keith, selections from Keith's private journal, and stories about what it was like raising their two remaining children on her own.

Book Description
Florence Knoll (1917–2019) was a leading force of modern design. She worked from 1945 to 1965 at Knoll Associates, first as business partner with her husband Hans Knoll, later as president after his death, and, finally, as design director. Her commissions became hallmarks of the modern era, including the Barcelona Chair by Mies van der Rohe, the Diamond Chair by Harry Bertoia, and the Platner Collection by Warren Platner. She created classics like the Parallel Bar Collection, still in production today. Knoll invented the visual language of the modern office through her groundbreaking interiors and the creation of the acclaimed "Knoll look," which remains a standard for interior design today. She reinvigorated the International Style through humanizing textiles, lighting, and accessories. Although Knoll's motto was "no compromise, ever," as a woman in a white, upper-middle-class, male-dominated environment, she often had to make accommodations to gain respect from her colleagues, clients, and collaborators. No Compromise looks at Knoll's extraordinary career in close-up, from her student days to her professional accomplishments.

Category : Political Science

Pages : 287

Book Description
A collection of groundbreaking investigations by Wayne Barrett, the intrepid, muckraking Village Voice journalist who exposed corruption in New York City and beyond. With piercing moral clarity and exacting rigor, Wayne Barrett tracked political corruption in the pages of the Village Voice fact by fact, document by document for 40 years. The first to report on the scams and crooked deals that fueled the rise of Donald Trump in 1979, Barrett went on to expose the shady dealings of small-time slum lords and powerful New York City politicians alike, from Ed Koch to Rudy Giuliani to Michael Bloomberg. Without Compromise is the first anthology of Barrett's investigative work, accompanied by essays from colleagues and those he trained. In an age of lies, fog, and propaganda, when the profession of journalism is degraded by the White House and the industry is under financial threat, Barrett reminds us that facts, when clearly accumulated, are our best defense of democracy.

5/5 No Compromise

Book Description
5/5 No Compromise is an African centered perspective on solving the x factor in the human equation: 3/5 slave + x = 5/5 whole human beings, for Black Americans, specifically, and Black people world wide in general. The book written by Jeff Weaver, is inspired and driven by the divine wisdom of Almighty God, the African Forces (Lwa, Orisa, Obosum) / Holy Spirit and the ancestors. The premise of 5/5 No Compromise is to establish the fact that: 1) The United States Constitution codified the value of Black lives, in Article I. Section 2, Chapter 3 (more popularly known as the "3/5 Clause") as "3/5 of a person." A codification which has never been, expressly, amended or eradicated; and 2) in order for Black victims of the trans Atlantic slave trade, white supremacy and colonialism to establish their genuine human status they must embrace their own traditions, customs and culture, in an autonomous mutual respect based co-existence with their former slave masters and governors. Furthermore, in order to connect the various "splinters" of Black sub-cultures that exist in the US and globally, there must be an establishment of the one cultural thread that exist in common with the genetic heredity of the people in question. For Black Americans and Black people, worldwide, that common cultural thread is the drum pulse which originated in Africa. It is the one cultural element that is powerful and consistent, wherever Black people are heavily populated in the world. The author, Jeff Weaver calls that thread, "drum centered culture" and has identified it as the key element in sowing together the global cultural fabric that will restore Black people to a 5/5 autonomous culture of thriving human beings, with lives that matter.
