A Prodigal Affair
A Prodigal Affair is a work of fiction that sets the stage to explore one man's fight with his personal character building and self-examination. It is the story of a man's fall and recovery from his own decisions as he struggles to balance his marriage, career, and his own burning desires. It is a look at how out of control life can become when we allow our choices to become larger than our belief or trust in God. In addition to the main character's personal deterioration, the work casts shadows onto the affects brought to the circle of our life when we allow our morality to become circumvented by life's situations. The work allows the reader the opportunity to look into the mindset, situation, and events that not only create failures in our lives, but how often we compile those instances with continued bad choices. Within the pages, there are also intertwined within the pages, sound advice offered that should not only affect the literary characters, but which can also be applied to the lives of the readers.

The Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies began compiling data on the number of black elected officials in the United States in 1970.

Celebration(S)
Celebrations is a story based on true incidents in the lives of two sisters. It is an inspirational story of pain, hope, and recovery. The sisterhood of Pat and Dee promotes and invites the desire to remain innocent and pure, yet sustains the shattering demonic violence of their father's requirement that beauty is equated to provocative sin and under-achievement is an unforgivable sin. It is the story of the common-ness of heroes --- those who do not make the newspaper, nor find their way to a television spot for a fifteen-minute center-of-the-universe. What we read here is a true and honest journey of women who were incredibly abused, both mentally and physically, and how it takes its toll on them --- yet they fight back to take control of their lives, sometimes faltering in their decisions, but nonetheless, asserting their right to be individuals. The kinship of sisterhood is their road to recovering and their love for each other --- the road to freedom. Join them as they ask you to learn to live, cry, and love with dignity, and know that each person's existence mattered. This is a story of common heroes. They are you and I.
Remembrances in Black
With the admittance in 1948 of Silas Hunt to the University of Arkansas Law School, the university became the first southern public institution of higher education to officially desegregate without being required to do so by court order. The process was difficult, but an important first step had been taken. Other students would follow in Silas Hunt's footsteps, and they along with the university would have to grapple with the situation. Remembrances in Black is an oral history that gathers the personal stories of African Americans who worked as faculty and staff and of students who studied at the state's flagship institution. These stories illustrate the anguish, struggle, and triumph of ind...
