In The Revolution Has Come Robyn C. Spencer traces the Black Panther Party's organizational evolution in Oakland, California, where hundreds of young people came to political awareness and journeyed to adulthood as members. Challenging the belief that the Panthers were a projection of the leadership, Spencer draws on interviews with rank-and-file members, FBI files, and archival materials to examine the impact the organization's internal politics and COINTELPRO's political repression had on its evolution and dissolution. She shows how the Panthers' members interpreted, implemented, and influenced party ideology and programs; initiated dialogues about gender politics; highlighted ambiguities in the Panthers' armed stance; and criticized organizational priorities. Spencer also centers gender politics and the experiences of women and their contributions to the Panthers and the Black Power movement as a whole. Providing a panoramic view of the party's organization over its sixteen-year history, The Revolution Has Come shows how the Black Panthers embodied Black Power through the party's international activism, interracial alliances, commitment to address state violence, and desire to foster self-determination in Oakland's black communities.

Discourse Perspectives in Organizational Communication brings together researchers from the social sciences and humanities to look at discourse and how it shapes organizations and their social actors. Unlike others in the field, this book assumes that language creates and constitutes reality, rather than simply mirroring or describing it. This collection illustrates the variety of organizational phenomena that might be studied and the range of epistemological and methodological approaches that might be used in discourse analysis techniques.

Mentoring the Prophetic Apprentice is written to every Christian believer and marketplace leader who is willing to accept and live out the prophetic imperative inscribed by the apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 14. God desires to edify His people. He also has a heart to reach those outside the church with a message of redemptive love and hope, as often witnessed in the Biblical narrative. Therefore, this prophetic imperative is essential, not only for leaders within the church, but also for those who operate in the marketplace arena. Prophesy is God's way of revealing life purpose and restoring lives with a piercing word from His loving voice. This book will greatly aid the prophetic apprentice to garner the promised gems from heaven's hand for others.
