Reconstructing Lives
Are you a “Success Seeker” or a “Success Builder” or both? The overall purpose of this book is to take the mystery out of success so that more persons can seek it and find it. It is not only designed for the general life success of anyone but also for use in school achievement. Current classroom educators call the work in Reconstructing Lives “a dynamic package deal” for implementing rigorous and relevant curriculum. The project offers proof of the effectiveness of an organic, time-tested project that can meet the national demand for preparing college and career ready students through Common Core State Standards (CCSS). From Reconstructing Lives, a student workbook was created ti...
On the Shoulders of Our Ancestors
On the Shoulders of Our Ancestors is an individual effort to articulate that Africans and African-Americans are achievers, that our history is one of being contributors to society instead of destroyers, that playing the “dozens” or “snapping” is unacceptable in our communities. Our history is not one of killing each other, nor is it one of negativism, but rather it is one of strength, hope, achievement, excellence and creativity. On the Shoulders of Our Ancestors seeks to redirect our youth’s miseducation through reminders of African-American achievement in the form of studying history through the poetic form.
Re-Make an Icon so You Can Produce One in Yourself & Others
This Re-Make an Icon Project will give you a new way to look at yourself as a future icon while you study your icon’s autobiography. You will remake your icon by investigating the details of his or her problems and discovering the solutions. The fun part will be rewriting his or her life story. For example, you can create “The Other Albert Einstein” or “The Other Oprah” or “The Other Beyoncé.” Later, you will investigate your life and learn to bring forth more of your own and others’ potential greatness. The Re-Make an Icon Project is based on the foundations of human development, critical pedagogy, and aesthetic education. For more than twenty years, this project has helped hundreds of people (from teenagers to retirees) learn success secrets and tools while having fun working on higher achievement. If you complete the entire process, you will see yourself and others as valued and capable of greater achievement.
The Beginning and End of John Jefferson High School
Nothing—I mean nothing—could stand in the way of achieving my goal of preserving the history of success despite the challenges of segregation at John Jefferson High School. It didn’t matter that my resources were very limited. There was a sense of urgency! I believe God chose a “little nobody” like me to preserve this history before it is lost forever. Writing this book was no easy task; however, the research was an amazing experience. In the beginning, some former students were reluctant to talk and to share their few treasured pictures with me. On the other hand, some were excited to share. When I started on this journey, I didn’t have a computer. Also, because of arthritis, I ...

Contrary to Rumor, I'm Wonderfully Made!
Many life stories are represented in this book that is presented as a poetic autobiography. The author uses the poetic "voice" to announce that we are all "wonderfully made" despite being told or treated otherwise. Although there is anger, pain and protest on the pages, there is also love, pleasure and power included. The book is both cultural autobiography and poetry therapy. It is both sad and sassy. The goal is for the reader to leave the work with a new sense of priceless value. What is most interesting is that the author gets to your heart and brain with powerful poetry that can assist you with self expression and empowerment.
