The People's Spiral of US History
THE PEOPLE'S SPIRAL OF US HISTORY sees today's Trump/Bannon assault on democracy erupting from our genetic roots. We're born of the matriarchal Indigenous, whose Hodenosaunee Confederacy embodied humankind's quintessential democracy. We're fathered by uptight macho Puritans still self-defined as the Elect of God. The global empire they spawned rose, then fell through six shortening cycles, expiring 1992-2020 in a Trumpocalyptic Death Rattle. As Millennial/Zoomers transcend race, class/caste, sexual diversity, spiritual awakening, eco-terror...the American organism struggles to be reborn. Will we get there?

The New Bibliopolis
The late-nineteenth century in Europe was a period of profound political, social, and technological change. One result of these changes was the rise in France of an upper-bourgeois bohemian class. Many of its members stimulated interest in unique forms of artistic expression such as illustrated books. On account of their influence, an atmosphere of intense bibliophilic activity came to define French culture at the turn of the century. The New Bibliopolis explores the role of amateurs in promoting the book arts in France during this period. Drawing on extensive original research, Willa Z.

Oh Yes We Can!
In Oh Yes We Can! We hope to offer America a view many have perhaps never seen, a view of the good things black people have done and are doing for themselves, their families, and their country. Our history, black history, is getting increasing attention in school curricula. We even get some network coverage during "black history month." Every now and then, an article appears in the national print media about "encouraging signs" in the black community. But make no mistake. The overwhelming image of black people-especially young black men-is "Up against the wall!" We hope to do our small part to begin to destroy that image. To the extent that the image accurately reflects the behavior of many young black males, we hope to begin to erode the view among young black children that crime and drugs and lawlessness present their only hope of escape from the bleakness of their lives. We hope to begin to paint an entirely different picture, a bright picture of opportunity that has inspired the many immigrants who have flocked to our shores for liberty, for political freedom, for economic freedom.
