The enemy of your soul will always have the upper hand as long as you refuse to expose him. You are fueling him to go on when you don't speak up. Sweeping it under the rug, having shut mouth grace, being humble, sweet and reserved does not free you from the tactics of the enemy. As a matter of fact, it causes more pain than gain because you are bound with an inside frown. Internal warfare and silent frustration will always give the enemy the upper hand. we must be willing to deal with the strong man of our house. It's time to refuse anything that empowers the enemy by exposing him and releasing the grip of silence. I choose to expose him by releasing the grip of silence. Color It Red will pave the path to freedom and victory for your life and it will help you end the inner struggle and release the silent frustration. The struggle is real but it doesn't have to be your struggle. My prayers are that I will inspire you to expose the enemy, be free and COLOR IT RED.
On Being German: A Personal Journey Into the German Experience
In the second half of my life, my thoughts and feelings have centered around one thing: the Holocaust. In my younger years I avoided that subject, be it in literature or in entertainment, whenever I possibly could. That was not easy. Television was full of programs in which Germans looked stupid and heinous. My own children watched these things with glee; I fled into another room. Since I have always read a lot, I was at least aware of the avalanche of books that were published about the Holocaust. Still, I kept my blinkers on. I firmly told myself that it was not my business, since I was just a child during that time. Sooner or later such an attitude will have to come to an end. It did for me after I fled a difficult marriage and finally began to examine my life. This was a slow process, aided by a patient psychiatrist. Now, years later, I want to write about my life and about the conflicted feelings such a search will cause in a woman of German nationality.

The Autobiography of Poverty

In her compelling work, The Autobiography of Poverty: My Childhood in Poem, author, Doris Wellington interweaves graphic poetic narratives that open the portal to a symphonic expose in which those least expected battle and overcome the crucibles of poverty-one of the most devastating of all human experiences. Dramatic literary language extracts from the severity of her childhood reality and invites readers into a world of transparent vulnerabilities, challenges, and distresses.She is not afraid to confront what some attempt to paint and pass off as an irreversible affliction that disfigures an otherwise perfect society. However, the author points out that it is not the poor who are the stain on society; rather those who close their eyes, pull down their shutters in hopes that the poor will go away-forgetting that when we turn a deaf ear or a cold heart against human suffering-whatever the plight, we have become the affliction among the afflicted we hate-the evil that stains society with indifference. With her mother as her guiding force she reveals how she was taught to use faith in God and dreams with wings to overcome the perils of poverty and all of its pathogenic matter. And to understand without reservation that you might live among the relics and rituals of poverty, but you do not have to breath in its content as your stationary place in life. You can dream and achieve a better life if you don't give up working to that end.

This is an extraordinary story of courage and faith. It is based on the actual experiences of three girls who fled from the repressive life of Moore River Native Settlement, following along the rabbit-proof fence back to their homelands. Assimilationist policy deemed these girls were taken from their kin and their land in order to be made white. Never having seen the ocean before, the three girls' experience of transportation by boat to the settlement was tormenting. But their torment was just beginning. Settlement life was unbearable with its chains and padlocks, barred windows, hard cold beds and horrible food. Solitary confinement was doled out as regular punishment. They were not even allowed to speak their language. Of all the journeys made since white people set foot on Australian soil, the 1931 journey made by these girls born of Aboriginal mothers and white fathers speaks something to us all.

Muslim Women on the Move

Muslim Women on the Move offers a comparison of two Muslim populations that to date have not been compared in this way. Author Doris Gray compares the personal views of young educated women in Morocco with those of young educated women of Moroccan immigrant origins in France. She conducted extensive personal interviews, loosely structured around three main themes, over a period of three years in Morocco and in France. The three thematic groups are: conceptions of the religion of Islam, legal changes affecting women in Morocco and Muslim women in France, and personal and professional goals and challenges. This book challenges the conventional dichotomy between the Western and the Muslim world. Voices of a select group of individuals from each of these very different countries show that despite their different national circumstances, they have much more in common than is conventionally assumed. Gray summarizes individual perceptions and puts them into the larger context of Muslim women and their particular circumstances in the two Western Mediterranean countries. Muslim Women on the Move will interest students and scholars of Middle Eastern Studies, Women's Studies, French and Francophone Studies, Religious Studies, African Studies, Anthropology, and Anthropology of Religion.

Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln
An analysis of Abraham Lincoln's political talents identifies the character strengths and abilities that enabled his successful election above three accomplished candidates, in an account that also describes how he used the same abilities to rally former opponents in forming his cabinet and winning the Civil War. By the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of No Ordinary Time. Reprint. 300,000 first printing.
Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln
One of the most influential books of the past fifty years, Team of Rivals is Pulitzer Prize-winning author and esteemed presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin's modern classic about the political genius of Abraham Lincoln, his unlikely presidency, and his cabinet of former political foes. Winner of the prestigious Lincoln Prize and the inspiration for the Oscar Award winning-film Lincoln, starring Daniel Day-Lewis, directed by Steven Spielberg, and written by Tony Kushner. On May 18, 1860, William H. Seward, Salmon P. Chase, Edward Bates, and Abraham Lincoln waited in their hometowns for the results from the Republican National Convention in Chicago. When Lincoln emerged as the victor, his rivals were dismayed and angry. Throughout the turbulent 1850s, each had energetically sought the presidency as the conflict over slavery was leading inexorably to secession and civil war. That Lincoln succeeded, Goodwin demonstrates, was the result of a character that had been forged by experiences that raised him above his more privileged and accomplished rivals. He won because he possessed an extraordinary ability to put himself in the place of other men, to experience what they were feeling, to understand their motives and desires. It was this capacity that enabled Lincoln as president to bring his disgruntled opponents together, create the most unusual cabinet in history, and marshal their talents to the task of preserving the Union and winning the war. We view the long, horrifying struggle from the vantage of the White House as Lincoln copes with incompetent generals, hostile congressmen, and his raucous cabinet. He overcomes these obstacles by winning the respect of his former competitors, and in the case of Seward, finds a loyal and crucial friend to see him through. This brilliant multiple biography is centered on Lincoln's mastery of men and how it shaped the most significant presidency in the nation's history.
