The Red Road and Other Narratives of the Dakota Sioux

By: Samuel I. Mniyo,Robert Goodvoice

2021 Scholarly Writing Award in the Saskatchewan Book Awards This book presents two of the most important traditions of the Dakota people, the Red Road and the Holy Dance, as told by Samuel Mniyo and Robert Goodvoice, two Dakota men from the Wahpeton Dakota Nation near Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Canada. Their accounts of these central spiritual traditions and other aspects of Dakota life and history go back seven generations and help to illuminate the worldview of the Dakota people for the younger generation of Dakotas, also called the Santee Sioux. "The Good Red Road," an important symbolic concept in the Holy Dance, means the good way of living or the path of goodness. The Holy Dance (also called the Medicine Dance) is a Dakota ceremony of earlier generations. Although it is no longer practiced, it too was a central part of the tradition and likely the most important ceremonial organization of the Dakotas. While some people believe that the Holy Dance is sacred and that the information regarding its subjects should be allowed to die with the last believers, Mniyo believed that these spiritual ceremonies played a key role in maintaining connections with the spirit world and were important aspects of shaping the identity of the Dakota people. In The Red Road and Other Narratives of the Dakota Sioux, Daniel Beveridge brings together Mniyo and Goodvoice's narratives and biographies, as well as songs of the Holy Dance and the pictographic notebooks of James Black (Jim Sapa), to make this volume indispensable for scholars and members of the Dakota community.

Angels and Ascension

Integrate Celestial Energy for a Benevolent Life

By: Rae Chandran;Robert Mason Pollock

Much support is available for humanity. Angelic support has always been available, but people did not know about it because they were looking for a tangible support system — something they could see, feel, or touch. In the new consciousness, you must learn to believe in the unseen. Know support is available if you focus. The angels completely support every human soul on the planet as well as all animals, plants, and trees, but you must ask for this support system to be activated. We bring the understanding of angels so that you can work with them to find joy, peace, and freedom in your heart. We encourage you to speak with all your friends and family about the benefits of working with angels. Work with angels every day, and you will see the difference. Includes Mudras, Breathing Exercises, and Intonations! Chapters Include: • Enhance Your Senses and Vitality • Boost Your Mental Facilities • Expand Your Consciousness • Use Numbers to Improve Your Life • Find Your Blueprint and Life Plan • Clear Karmic Energy • Spiritual Cosmology • Ascension Practices

Written for those who speak on behalf of commercial companies, public services, charities, NGOs, or as a subject expert (or for those briefing clients prior to interviews), no communications professional can afford to be without a copy. The book is also supported by online resources, including web links to relevant media interviews for each chapter and high-profile news stories.

The Divine Miss Marble

A Life of Tennis, Fame, and Mystery

By: Robert Weintraub

“In Robert Weintraub’s exhaustive biography, The Divine Miss Marble, he transports the reader into Marble’s vibrant world. It’s a dreamy, indomitable life worth reading about as today’s tennis tries to return to form.”—The Washington Post “An intriguing book about a fascinating woman . . . Highly recommended.”—Library Journal (starred review) “Delightful and engrossing, this is a must for tennis fans.”—Publishers Weekly The story of 1930s tennis icon Alice Marble, and her life of sports, celebrity, and incredible mystery Who was Alice Marble? In her public life, she was the biggest tennis star of the pre-war era, a household name like Joe DiMaggio and Joe Louis. She was famous for overcoming serious illness to win the biggest tournaments, including Wimbledon. She was also a fashion designer and trendsetter, a contributor to a pioneering new comic called Wonder Woman—and friend to the biggest names in Hollywood and society, like Carole Lombard and Clark Gable, William Randolph Hearst and Marion Davies, and members of families named Bloomingdale, Loew, and du Pont. She helped integrate tennis with her support of Althea Gibson, and even coached two young women who became stars in their own right: Billie Jean King and Sally Ride. Yet her private life provoked constant speculation while she was alive, and her own memoirs added layers of legend upon stories. According to Alice, she married a man who was killed in the skies over Europe during World War II. But who was the man she loved, and had he even existed? She was widely known for her patriotism during World War II. Had she really nearly given her life for her country as a spy, shot during a wild car chase fleeing foreign espionage agents? In The Divine Miss Marble, bestselling author Robert Weintraub traveled the country to uncover her fascinating story. And the more he learned about her, the more her mysteries and contradictions deepened. Alice was a powerful woman who knew her worth, demanding equal pay to men decades earlier than other female athletes; yet she was held in sway by a domineering, highly successful coach with whom she had a volatile relationship. She was renowned for her California style, and had a brilliant mind and the guts to overcome a lifetime of physical trauma. For the first time here, we come closer than ever before to the truths of this unforgettable life, and somehow it’s a story even more extraordinary than everything we already know about the divine Alice Marble.

Unjustifiable Means

By: Robert T. Donohue

Unjustifiable Means is an inspirational, political, thriller for our times. The author brings to bear a progressive and Judeo-Christian perspective on todays political news. Stultifying, divisive partisanship in congress, pro-life verses pro-choice, senate filibuster reform, civil rights, gay rights, class warfare, all come under the authors discerning scrutiny. As our story begins, the U.S. Senate is evenly split, fifty Republicans and fifty Democrats. Both camps are engaged in a civil war of words and polarized ideologies over President Warners nomination of right-wing leaning John Cameron to the Supreme Court. The future of American democracy is at stake. The democrats have filibustered against Cameron for weeks. Nothing, nothing is getting done in Washington. A well-planned right-wing conspiracy to assure Camerons confirmation is hatched. Deadly consequences follow in this fast-paced twenty-four hour saga that includes mystery, suspense, and romance as it calls for tolerance, inclusiveness, compromise, courage, and faith in American politics and life.
