William Jefferson Clinton : from Hope to Harlem

By: Janis F. Kearney

Cultural Writing. African American Studies. Biography and Memoir. Former Clinton diarist, Janis F. Kearney, pens a biography that is part historical narrative and part oral history. In 2001, Kearney began a journey, in search of black American's stories about the south that shaped a man and a leader such as William Jefferson Clinton; and memories about this southern enigma, from those who knew him. Over a two year span she collected conversations, memories, and stories from men and women from across the country. These conversations, and a carefully painted abstract of the pre-civil rights Arkansas that Bill Clinton called home; are the centerpieces of this biography. CONVERSATIONS includes rare and unheard voices of black Americans speaking candidly about America's 42nd President. Their memories, stories and thoughts on William J. Clinton, the man, the president and the enigma offer unique and rare pictures of Bill Clinton and his role in American and presidential history. The book include narratives from former President William J. Clinton; former Transportation Secretary Rodney Slater, U.S. Congressman John Lewis; Civil Rights leader, and NFPW Founder Dorothy Height; Baseball Great Hank Aaron; Pulitizer Prize winning biographer David Levering Lewis, and Harvard Sociologist, professor, William Julius Wilson, and many more.

100 Years of Memories on Varner Road

By: Janis F. Kearney

Trains, and boats and the Mississippi River are the things that defined young TJ Kearney of southeast Arkansas. At 107-years old, he has seen it all, and lived to tell it...and, tell it, he does. The 107-year old TJ Kearney has spent his lifetime sharing the stories of his life with family, friends and passersby who happened to stop by, on Varner Road. Born just 40 years after Lincoln's Abolition of Slavery, in the atypical southern town of Lake Village, Arkansas; TJ's life was defined by struggles, losses and miracles. The wanderer-turned family patriarch was first introduced in Janis F. Kearney's award winning memoir, -Cotton Field of Dreams,- in 2004. Now, just months after he passed in 2013, the author reintroduces TJ to old and new acquaintances.
