There is life after fifty. In case you were wondering. And best-selling author and very funny lady Martha Bolton is here to wax hilarious on every part of it -- from the perils of exercise to the puzzling tradition of fruitcake, the annoyance of tailgaters to the miraculous powers of pie. Martha's humour is just as clever (and needed) as ever -- she takes on nutritional labelling, iPhones, and the upside of a recession. With chapters like, 'When One Door Closes, It's Usually on My Foot' and '12-Step Program for Buffet Addicts', she will have you laughing your socks off. She also writes touching pieces about the things she misses -- land lines, in-store coffee shops, hand-written letters, dressing up, her parents -- and the one thing that grounds her: her faith in God. Laugh along with Martha as she reminds you of what is truly important and turns the normal stuff of life -- after fifty -- into riotous fun.

Chloe and Her People offers an Africana Womanist reading of First Corinthians that privileges the knowledge, experiences, histories, traditions, voices, and artifacts of Black women and the Black community that challenge or dissent from Paul’s rhetorical epistemic constructions. Smith reads First Corinthians dialogically from the perspective of oppressed and marginalized readers situated in front of the text and those muted within and behind the letter. Struggling toward unmitigated freedom, Chloe and Her People talks back to and throws shade on, sometimes poetically, Paul’s muting and subordination of women, rhetorically constructed binary knowledge, the glass ceiling placed on women’s heads, heterosexual marriage as a mechanism for managing lust, and androcentric patriarchal love built on women’s passive bodies.
Having sacrificed her freedom to establish peace with a neighboring kingdom, Shalia discovers that she has the power to control earth the day she marries Calix, whose only motivation is to eliminate the Elementae. First in a sweeping new fantasy series.
A photographic panorama of the creativity and variety of Black women's hairstyles In Crowns: My Hair, My Soul, My FreedomAmerican photographer Sandro Miller (born 1958) celebrates the social endurance, cultural heritage and self-expression of Black women through their hairstyles. In this series of portraits, each subject is posed in front of either a strikingly black or vibrant geometric background that serves to highlight the models' skin tones and accentuates their ultra-stylized hair, whether a halo of bright gold curls or crimson locks swept into an elegant bun. Each image is based on the relevant model's "hair story" and pays homage to her personal fashion sense, documenting the many unspoken ways in which Black women assert their autonomy through their physical appearance. In this project, Miller seeks to recognize and honor Black women's creativity and beauty while celebrating their social endurance and cultural memory at the same time.
Important American periodical dating back to 1850.
