The work of James Weldon Johnson (1871 - 1938) inspired and encouraged the artists of the Harlem Renaissance,a movement in which he himself was an important figure. Johnson was active in almost every aspect of American civil life and became one of the first African-American professors at New York University. He is best remembered for his writing, which questions, celebrates and commemorates his experience as an African-American.
The first edition of Shadowed Dreams was a groundbreaking anthology that brought to light the contributions of women poets to the Harlem Renaissance. This revised and expanded version contains twice the number of poems found in the original, many of them never before reprinted, and adds eighteen new voices to the collection to once again strike new ground in African American literary history. Also new to this edition are nine period illustrations and updated biographical introductions for each poet. Shadowed Dreams features new poems by Gwendolyn Bennett, Anita Scott Coleman, Mae Cowdery, Blanche Taylor Dickinson, Alice Dunbar-Nelson, Jessie Fauset, Angelina Weld Grimké, Gladys Casely Hayford (a k a Aquah Laluah), Virginia Houston, Georgia Douglas Johnson, Helene Johnson, Effie Lee Newsome, Esther Popel, and Anne Spencer, as well as writings from newly discovered poets Carrie Williams Clifford, Edythe Mae Gordon, Alvira Hazzard, Gertrude Parthenia McBrown, Beatrice Murphy, Lucia Mae Pitts, Grace Vera Postles, Ida Rowland, and Lucy Mae Turner, among others. Covering the years 1918 through 1939 and ranging across the period's major and minor journals, as well as its anthologies and collections, Shadowed Dreams provides a treasure trove of poetry from which to mine deeply buried jewels of black female visions in the early twentieth century.
In 1895, Nova Scotia-born Joshua Slocum embarked on a three-year 46,000-mile solo circumnavigation of the globe, aboard a refitted oyster sloop. Sailing through pirate-infested waters, confronting the sea at its most cruel, surviving beachings and wrestling with the demons of solitude, Joshua Slocum achieved a voyage that will forever rank among the epic feats of seamanship.
Includes examples of Anne Spencer's poetry.
Anne Frank and Martin Luther King Jr. were born the same year a world apart. Both faced ugly prejudices and violence, which both answered with words of love and faith in humanity. This is the story of their parallel journeys to find hope in darkness and to follow their dreams.
(Princess) Diana Spencer contacted British healer and PSYCHIC Anne Stewart in July 2011 and began a series of channellings that, to use her own words 'will change the world.' The Diana message is unsurprisingly one of Love. 'It isn't just about loving each other and changing the world; it is loving everything to change the world.' In this book, through nineteen channellings from January 2012 to July 2013, read Diana's very simple, workable and profound recipe for humanity to 're-claim our birth right and birth place.' * Heal your mind and body using an ancient healing symbol. * De-toxify your food and water. * Wake up to the truth of what's going on in the world. * Let go of a lifetime of negative, restrictive conditioning. * Improve your breathing; balance your body's energy system. * Realise the power of prayer, blessing and gratitude. * Send the 'love vibration' out to everyone and 'take the planet to another dimension.' Diana chose Anne Stewart because 'I had been with her in other times', for her 'purity of heart' and because 'people trust her.' This is a book by Diana, not about Diana. Anne and author husband Jack run Diana Divine Healing workshops wherever the call takes them. Diana has already promised a sequel.
