Have you ever wondered if you were meant to complete something that generations before you weren't able to complete? As if your grandparents set out to do something you were meant to finish?Marvin's grandmother fled her home when they attacked. My paternal grandparents eloped when they were told that they couldn't be together. My maternal grandparents migrated to the city to seek more opportunities for their growing family. Two generations later, the grandchildren of these migrants met in the United States under the most unlikely circumstances. Still facing barriers and fighting society's expectations and fear-mongering of the current political climate, the two young people continued to fight for what their grandparents set out to attain and what they dared to dream of having: the freedom to love and to be happy living in your own skin- despite of what others told them to believe.Though they came from different backgrounds, they strived to prove ourselves to the world and to our families while facing racism and prejudice as young people of color in the United States while trying to love each other. This is a modern love story about how two people overcame society's obstacles by fighting to live freely in their own skin- and to be together- even when they were forced apart.This book is an autobiographical novella based on true events that illustrate love's great power to transcend generations to liberate and unite even the most marginalized people.

People need a place to record their thoughts and desires. They want to write down their plans and secrets too. This is where Brittany records hers.
Brittany's richly layered landscape has contributed depth and character to the region's traditional oral culture, from stories of the sea and shore to tales of misty moors, sacred hill-tops and secretive forests. Evangelizing Dark Age saints from Britain laid the foundations of Breton language and society, imposing Christianity on the landscape and in the minds of the people. Their legacy rests visually in the prolific spread of chapels, churches and cathedrals, and the Celtic language still preserved with pride. Right on the edge of Europe, the region has been vulnerable to assault and exploitation. Franks, Vikings, English, Germans have all made their mark, resisted at every turn with resilience. The problematic relationship with neighbouring France before and after Union in 1532 has left wounds to this day. The rapacity of the ancien regime was followed by deprivation of privileges during the Revolution, attacks on religion and subsequent suppression of the Breton language which struck at the very heart of Brittany. The nineteenth century combined economic stagnation with growing interest in Celtic roots, fuelling the search for that ultimate chimera - Breton identity. Historians and poets began to assert the distinct character of the region, while foreign travellers also left accounts of a people speaking an unfathomable language and appearing a race apart. This "primitivism" coupled with the lure of the mysterious megaliths created an image of wild exoticism, and made Brittany a prime target for tourists and artists. Today the past is perpetuated and the future welcomed in a packed festival calendar of Celtic music and Breton culture. Yet for all its modernity, Brittany remains as intensely complex and challenging to preconceived notions as ever. LANDSCAPE AND LEGENDS: Marches of Brittany; Druids and megaliths; St-Malo and sea adventures; mysteries of the Monts d'Arree; Merlin in the Foret de Broceliande. COMPLEXITY AND AMBIGUITY: part of France yet a separate world; nationalism, regionalism, resistance, unity and division of language; four departments or five? WRITERS AND ARTISTS: Chaucer, Balzac, Hugo, Flaubert, Ernest Renan, Thomas Adolphus Trollope, Arthur de la Borderie, Mathurin Meheut, Max Jacob, Yves Tanguy.
