Driven toward Madness

Margaret Garner was the runaway slave who, when confronted with capture just outside of Cincinnati, slit the throat of her toddler daughter rather than have her face a life in slavery. Her story has inspired Toni Morrison’s Beloved, a film based on the novel starring Oprah Winfrey, and an opera. Yet, her life has defied solid historical treatment. In Driven toward Madness, Nikki M. Taylor brilliantly captures her circumstances and her transformation from a murdering mother to an icon of tragedy and resistance. Taylor, the first African American woman to write a history of Garner, grounds her approach in black feminist theory. She melds history with trauma studies to account for shortcomings in the written record. In so doing, she rejects distortions and fictionalized images; probes slavery’s legacies of sexual and physical violence and psychic trauma in new ways; and finally fleshes out a figure who had been rendered an apparition.

Aution lay in ruins. Charred, smoldering ruins. The Gnomes, Rat, and Nulu make their way to Big Julie's School of Magic. They're looking for a place to hide out until things cool down. News hasn't spread about Grimbledung being responsible for the town-wide fire and they want to keep it that way. Julesville is founded around Julie's school and everything seems to be moving along smoothly until a newly-unemployed Werewolf and Haberdashery owner show up. With Akita and Pozzuoli in town, things aren't looking good for Grimbledung! Fortunately for him, the impending Halfling invasion gets everyone's attention. When a contingent of battle-hardened Halflings arrive in town and declares Martial Law, things look dire. To make matters worse, the Halfling Army masses on the other side of the Anti-Ogre wall. Working together, the gang tricks the Halfling soldiers into leaving Julesville (intact even), repels the Halfling invasion, and restores peace to The Lands. Well, not really those last two...

A Survey of Cincinnati's Black Press & Its Editors 1844-2010

There is probably no better way to catch the flavor of a time period or of a people than by perusing the pages of contemporary periodicals. The problem is that very often newspapers, newsletters, and magazines are not saved and preserved as the precious historical record that they represent. This is doubly true of the ephemera of African-Americans in by-gone eras for a number of reasons. First of all, periodicals are intended at their inception to be for immediate consumption and not for posterity. Their own creators, the many editors and publishers referenced here, were probably too busy to worry about preserving their publications. Unlike artifacts or material goods, paper products are lik...

Too dark. Too short. Too skinny. Too fat. For many, the weight of living up to societal norms and status quos can be all too much to bear. In this candid literary masterpiece, author Nikki Taylor highlights why the remnants of slavery have not only been overlooked, applauded and embraced-but why those remnants have also been watered down to societal norms for Black culture. Shattered: Healing the Broken Pieces of the Cultural Norm of Bullying enlightens readers of all backgrounds to the fact that this life we have been living collectively is not the best we have to offer ourselves, nor our community at-large. Sadly, many times, what we define as normal is anything but. Unlike other books on ...
