Destiny Keys
Many people live and die never knowing or fulfilling their purpose and destiny in life. Hidden deep in the heart of God are keys to fulfilling the multi-dimensional life plan that involves a very specific assignment uniquely designed for each one of us. Unlocking the secret of how to live out our life and purpose in three dimensions involves multiple components. Knowing our destiny - or simply our destination, taking dominion over disappointment and discouragement, ruling in life as stewards of the truth, expressing our priesthood as followers of Jesus, and demonstrating the kingdom of God in the earth.

Statesmen, Scoundrels, and Eccentrics
From Native Americans, explorers, and early settlers to entertainers, business people, politicians, lawyers, artists, and many others, the well-known and not-so-well-known Arkansans featured in Statesmen, Scoundrels, and Eccentrics have fascinating stories. To name a few, there’s the “Hanging Judge,” Isaac C. Parker of Fort Smith, and Hattie Caraway, the first elected female U.S. senator. Isaac T. Gillam, a slave who became a prominent politician in post–Civil War Little Rock, is included, as is Norman McLeod, an eccentric Hot Springs photographer and owner of the city’s first large tourist trap. These entertaining short biographies from Dillard’s Remembering Arkansas column will be enjoyed by all kinds of readers, young and old alike. All the original columns reprinted here have also been enhanced with Dillard’s own recommended reading lists. Statesmen will serve as an introduction or reintroduction to the state’s wonderfully complex heritage, full of rhythm and discord, peopled by generations of hardworking men and women who have contributed much to the region and nation.

Managing White Supremacy
Tracing the erosion of white elite paternalism in Jim Crow Virginia, Douglas Smith reveals a surprising fluidity in southern racial politics in the decades between World War I and the Supreme Court's 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision. Smith draws on official records, private correspondence, and letters to newspapers from otherwise anonymous Virginians to capture a wide and varied range of black and white voices. African Americans emerge as central characters in the narrative, as Smith chronicles their efforts to obtain access to public schools and libraries, protection under the law, and the equitable distribution of municipal resources. This acceleration of black resistance to white...
No One Would Ever Believe Me

My family was forced to move. My parents divorced. My mother became a single mother of six children. In the 1960s, a divorced woman was labeled with a capital S (Scarlet).
