Pistis Sofa con sus sabias revelaciones, enriquecidas en la presente develacin, d inicio a una esperanzadora Era de Luz, donde la Verdad deba ser divisa suprema a encarnarse individualmente por un autntico Laborante, llegndose a repeler y vencer con autoridad ntima, todo mal. A travs del tiempo se haban sucedido en la esfera terrestre los ms variados experimentos de pretendida religiosidad, mediante manipuladas instituciones egostas, plagadas de celos, envidias y odios, habindose apropiado indebida y descaradamente de la Doctrina Celestial, con la finalidad de explotar materialmente su Sagrado Mensaje, trastocndolo con toda clase de aberraciones imperantes en cada era, satisfaciendo la vulgaridad de los desbordes infra sociales, repletos de corrupcin y vicios, situacin anmala que ha sido sostenida y transmitida desde los ms diversos plpitos, constituyendo el dormido y multiplicado remedo de espiritualidad que orgullosa domina en la Tierra desde hace ya varios milenios.

Autor: Mikel Santiago

Número de Páginas: 617

Más de 900.000 lectores ya recomiendan la trilogía de Illumbe. Tras el éxito de El mentiroso, empieza la segunda parte de la trilogía ambientada en Illumbe, el pueblo con más misterios y secretos del País Vasco. Un grupo de rock. Un concierto. Una chica desaparecida. Han pasado más de veinte años, pero hay noches que nunca terminan. ¿Puede una noche marcar el destino de todos los que la vivieron? Han pasado más de veinte años desde que Diego Letamendia, estrella del rock en declive, actuó por última vez en su pueblo natal, Illumbe. Esa fue la noche del final de su banda y su grupo de amigos, y también la de la desaparición de Lorea, su novia. La policía nunca logró esclarecer lo ocurrido con la chica, que fue vista saliendo a toda prisa de la sala de conciertos, como si huyera de algo o de alguien. Después de aquello, Diego emprendió una carrera de éxitos en solitario y jamás regresó al pueblo. Cuando uno de los miembros de la banda muere en un extraño incendio, Diego decide volver a Illumbe. Han pasado muchos años y el reencuentro con los antiguos amigos es difícil: ninguno de ellos sigue siendo la persona que fue. Mientras, crece la sospecha de que el...

The Paralysis of Analysis in African American Studies

The Paralysis of Analysis in African American Studies

Autor: Stephen Ferguson Ii

Número de Páginas: 265

Stephen C. Ferguson II provides a philosophical examination of Black popular culture for the first time. From extensive discussion of the philosophy and political economy of Hip-Hop music through to a developed exploration of the influence of the postmodernism-poststructuralist ideology on African American studies, he argues how postmodernism ideology plays a seminal role in justifying the relationship between corporate capitalism and Black popular culture. Chapters cover topics such as cultural populism, capitalism and Black liberation, the philosophy of Hip-Hop music, and Harold Cruse's influence on the “cultural turn” in African American studies. Ferguson combines case studies of past and contemporary Black cultural and intellectual productions with a Marxist ideological critique to provide a cutting edge reflection on the economic structure in which Black popular culture emerged. He highlights the contradictions that are central to the juxtaposition of Black cultural artists as political participants in socioeconomic struggle and the political participants who perform the rigorous task of social criticism. Adopting capitalism as an explanatory framework, Ferguson...

Solving Public Problems

Solving Public Problems

Autor: Beth Simone Noveck

Número de Páginas: 449

How to take advantage of technology, data, and the collective wisdom in our communities to design powerful solutions to contemporary problems The challenges societies face today, from inequality to climate change to systemic racism, cannot be solved with yesterday’s toolkit. Solving Public Problems shows how readers can take advantage of digital technology, data, and the collective wisdom of our communities to design and deliver powerful solutions to contemporary problems. Offering a radical rethinking of the role of the public servant and the skills of the public workforce, this book is about the vast gap between failing public institutions and the huge number of public entrepreneurs doing extraordinary things—and how to close that gap. Drawing on lessons learned from decades of advising global leaders and from original interviews and surveys of thousands of public problem solvers, Beth Simone Noveck provides a practical guide for public servants, community leaders, students, and activists to become more effective, equitable, and inclusive leaders and repair our troubled, twenty-first-century world.

Who was Who on TV

Who was Who on TV

Autor: Norman Chance

Número de Páginas: 534

The information herein was accumulated of fifty some odd years. The collection process started when TV first came out and continued until today. The books are in alphabetical order and cover shows from the 1940s to 2010. The author has added a brief explanation of each show and then listed all the characters, who played the roles and for the most part, the year or years the actor or actress played that role. Also included are most of the people who created the shows, the producers, directors, and the writers of the shows. These books are a great source of trivia information and for most of the older folk will bring back some very fond memories. I know a lot of times we think back and say, "Who was the guy that played such and such a role?" Enjoy!

Attacking Terrorism

Attacking Terrorism

Autor: Audrey Kurth Cronin , James M. Ludes

Número de Páginas: 332

The definition and understanding of "terrorism" is in a state of unprecedented evolution. No longer are acts of terrorism rare and far-flung. Following the horrendous attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, U.S. citizens have had their eyes opened to a new world where this nightmare stalks the daily news and is never far from consciousness. Attacking Terrorism brings together some of the world's finest experts, people who have made the study of this rising menace their life's work, to provide a comprehensive picture of the challenges and opportunities of the campaign against international terrorism. Part one, "The Nature of Terrorism," provides an overview and foundation for the current campaign, placing it within the political and historical context of previous threats and responses. Part two, "The Responses to Terrorism," looks at the range of policy instruments required in an effective strategy against terrorism. The contributors to this volume bring finely honed analyses and nuanced perspectives to the terrorist realities of the twenty-first century—history, analyses, and perspectives that have been too often oversimplified or myopic. They bring a new depth of...

Las peregrinaciones a Santiago y San Salvador

Las peregrinaciones a Santiago y San Salvador

Autor: Juan Uría Ríu , Juan Uría Maqua

Número de Páginas: 972

El análisis de las peregrinaciones a Santiago de Compostela a lo largo de la historia ha generado gran cantidad de bibliografía. Uno de esos estudios, publicado hace más de medio siglo y realizado por Juan Uría en compañía de Jose María Lacarra y Luis Vázquez de Parga, supuso un hito en la historiografía, tanto por la amplitud de su análisis, como por su acercamiento al tema a través de una innumerable tipología de fuentes históricas. Las partes realizadas por Uría se encuentran hoy aquí recopiladas y complementadas con otros artículos que ahondan en su visión general del proceso. Pero, además, hubo una época en que la peregrinación a la ciudad de Oviedo alcanzó una enorme popularidad, como consecuencia de las reliquias existentes en San Salvador. Juan Uría no quiso dejar de lado este aspecto que atañe directamente a su ciudad, por lo que, primero por medio de su tesis, inédita hasta ahora, y luego en posteriores estudios, buscó rescatar del olvido la importancia que tuvo esta ciudad en las rutas de peregrinación medievales y modernas, y lo que esta afluencia de peregrinos supuso en el desarrollo, evolución y gestación de la vida y carácter de las...

American Deadline

American Deadline

Autor: Greg Glassner , Charles Richardson , Sandra Sanchez , Jason Togyer

Número de Páginas: 152

The dramatic events of 2020—the presidential election, the COVID-19 pandemic, protests for racial justice—affected every corner of American life. What did these events mean for the residents of small towns and cities that are often overlooked by national newspapers? How do local stories change when they are told by journalists with roots in these communities? And what is lost as this kind of coverage disappears? American Deadline brings together dispatches from four longtime local journalists in different parts of the United States that tell the story of 2020 anew. It shares reporting from Bowling Green, Virginia; Macon, Georgia; McKeesport, Pennsylvania; and McAllen, Texas—two towns that lost their local newspapers and two where they are barely hanging on. The authors consider what makes each town distinctive and how these local perspectives tell a part of a broader American story. This book reports on how residents of these towns grapple with and talk about issues relating to race, schooling, health, immigration, deindustrialization, as well as local and national politics amid a changing and increasingly precarious information ecosystem. A distinct and intimate look at a...

Anti-Black Racism Portrayed in the Song "Reagan" by Killer Mike

Autor: Farisa Chamajewa

Número de Páginas: 18

Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject American Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 2, Klagenfurt University (English Department), language: English, abstract: With “Ronald Reagan”, Killer Mike highlights political and social issues in the US during the Reagan era. The song, which the paper analyzes is a rap song consisting of two original samples, two verses, and an outro, featured in the album R.A.P. in May 2012. The paper firstly introduces the artist and goes on with the historical and cultural background of the main theme and the Reagan character. The next chapter analyzes the song, as well as the music video. The paper concludes with chapter 6. With his song, Killer Mike highlights anti-black racism and social issues amongst black people in the US. Slavery, systematic racism, and police brutality is not a rare case in the United States. In pop culture, there are several ways to raise one’s voice against unfair treatment; through poetry, movies, art, and songs. The majority of African American people have been racially attacked in their lives. Some of those people remain silent, while others get active.

Irresistible Revolution

Irresistible Revolution

Autor: Matthew Lohmeier

Número de Páginas: 224

Irresistible Revolution is a timely and bold contribution from an active-duty Space Force lieutenant colonel who sees the impact of a neo-Marxist agenda at the ground level within our armed forces. In it, author Matthew Lohmeier provides answers to many important questions that Americans are currently asking: Is systemic racism a reality, or is much of our talk about race merely a rhetorical tool used to divide Americans? Why has the Defense Department suddenly shifted to a focus on extremism within the ranks? Is there really a white supremacy or white nationalist problem within our armed forces? Are the many Diversity and Inclusion trainings that are being conducted in our federal agencies helping solve these problems, or are they creating conflict where none previously existed? What is Marxism, and what does it have to do with all of this? Though pundits often appear perplexed by current policy decisions being made in our country, our apparent missteps are part of a longstanding plot against America, patiently and methodically pursued by those with a mind intent on the overthrow of the US Government and its replacement with a communist dictatorship. Unfortunately, many of those...

"This book tells the story of American education by examining this unique element of student life. The author shows the evolution of how teachers, students, parents, and administrators responded to report cards. Report cards, he shows, were more than just a means by which a school documented each student's deportment, academic standing, and attendance. They were a tool of control, a microcosm for the changing power dynamics between teachers, parents, and students"--

Inevitable Uncertainty

Inevitable Uncertainty

Autor: Isaac Hill Sr.

Número de Páginas: 334

Is the worst yet to come, or will there be a darkness that precedes the dawn as everyone awaits the last days? And can it be possible that the last days are the new beginning of what is truly marvelous and worth every struggle, both real and imaginary? This matter of inevitable uncertainty is a lifelong challenge that will not yield to the intentions of the best plans. One must endure its magnitude with boldness and faith that is nurtured in the mind and deposited into the heart, where every beat pounds it into submission to indomitable will, lest despair direct one to an insignifi cant fate. I believe! One must proclaim, and then prophesy to the horizon whether it forebodes malady or casts a sweet allurement. I will! One must proclaim in spite of dissenters who prove to be great fair weather company along for the ride. And one must pray that one will survive through the foolish measures of their own unbridled bravery, while the course through the unknown looms as an undefeatable giant. No time is wasted, for every step forward is progress and every resting place is a recharge, every fall is a chance to rise again. Surely the demons will howl when the moon rises and the day...

CAMION BLANC

CAMION BLANC

Autor: Mark Levine

Número de Páginas: 300

Le metal, c’était vraiment le son qui correspondait parfaitement à l’agressivité qu’on ressentait en vivant dans une dictature. Et c’est ce qui nous a permis de faire sortir sainement notre colère (Sajid, Pakistan). Le metal est dans notre sang. C’est pas un divertissement, c’est notre souffrance, et aussi un antidote à l’hypocrisie de la religion qui est injectée en chacun de nous dès notre naissance (Tarantist, Iran). Quand on est palestinien, pakistanais ou même marocain et qu’on a le malheur d’être fan de metal, on comprend très vite que ce n’est pas que de la musique. Non. On comprend qu’on doit engager toute sa vie. Et c’est ce qui renforce paradoxalement le degré d’attachement. Ceux qui auront été emprisonnés pour cela en témoignent dans cette enquête du professeur à l’Université de Californie et docteur en études islamiques, Mark LeVine. Il a réalisé vingt voyages et parcouru seize pays pour en rapporter ce livre fondamental. En tant que guitariste semi-pro, il a pu aussi partager la scène et enregistrer avec les musiciens qu’il interviewait (Orphaned Land, Khalas, Junoon, les filles de Mystik Moods…). Il a rencontré...

Ism, Ism, Ism / Ismo, Ismo, Ismo is the first comprehensive, United States–based film program and catalogue to treat the full breadth of Latin America’s vibrant experimental film production. The exhibition features key historical and contemporary films from Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela, Puerto Rico and the United States. From innovative works by Brazilian artist Hélio Oiticica and Mexican photographer Manuel Álvarez Bravo to the breathtaking yet practically unknown ouevre of queer Ecuadorian filmmaker Eduardo Solá Franco, the exhibition takes both the aficionado and the open-minded viewer on a journey into a wealth of materials culled from the forgotten corners of Latin American film archives. Equally unprecedented in its approach and scope, the accompanying fully bilingual catalogue features major scholars and artists working across nationalities, mediums, and time periods. Lerner and Piazza assemble a mix of original content authored by key curators, scholars, and archivists from Latin America: eighteen essays and articles translated for the first time pertaining to the history of Latin American...
