Описание: What are you?Excuse me?You know, like where are you from?Nebraska.No, I mean like, what ARE you?


Ive been asked this question more times than I can count. And I always know what the person is trying to ask, but I have to admit I kind of like to see them struggle. It shouldnt be so hard to ask, Hey, what race are you? But it is. Especially when the person doesnt fit nicely into one box. This is the plight of every ethnically ambiguous-looking person on earth.

Growing up in the Midwest, I never knew I wasnt black until a 12-year-old white boy told me so. Do you have any idea how discombobulating that is? (I love that word.) Anyway - its confusing. Id spent the first 11 years of my life thinking I was black. All of sudden, I didnt know what I was. And neither did anybody else.

So, my journey from black to ethnic ambiguity began. There were a few challenges along the way like the time a white supremacist accepted me, but not my brother or father. That was a really strange encounter. Or, when a drunk white guy asked if he could use a plastic fork to comb my beautiful curls. (Everyone knows you dont mess with a black womans hair.)

But one of the best things about being biracial is the superpower that comes with it. Yeah, you read that right. I have the ability to blend into almost every ethnic group on the planet. Can you do that? With this power comes great responsibility (Thank you Uncle Ben.) And I take it very seriously. Being biracial is about accepting who I am and demonstrating a willingness to accept who everyone else it, too.

Just to be clear, because I dont want you to be disappointed, this book isnt for everyone. Youll need a thick skin, open mind, and a sense of humor to digest it. After all, thats whats gotten me this far.

Who is it for? Im glad you asked (and youre still reading this blurb.)

  • If you like reading about other peoples challenges and how they overcame them, then youre going to love this book.
  • If you know a biracial kid whos struggling with who they are, then give them this book. (And tell them to get in touch with me. Im happy to chat with them.)
  • If youre curious about what it takes to make it in a black and white world when youre not one or the other, this is the book for you.

Buy My Life in Black and White and youll never be discombobulated about race in America, again. (Of course, I cant really guarantee that )

Описание: You'll love all nine stories in this new, private detective series, by native Nebraskan, Kori D. Miller. She's created a strong, sassy PI who doesn't hold back.Private investigator Dezeray Jackson hates Florida; she hated it 24 hours after she arrived 5 years ago. Not for any particular reason, really, just a whole lot of little ones - bugs, alligators, snakes, and rude, obnoxious people. Dez thinks a break is in order, then she gets the Millicent James case. All she has to do is follow Millicent's gamer grandson for a month, which could be as exciting as waiting for water to boil, Dez thinks. But a boring, routine assignment suddenly takes some interesting twists when a much-anticipated pre-release game disappears. It's a hot commodity that could make somebody millions of dollars. But who? After two years in the Big Apple, Dez is fed up with cheating spouses and embezzling employees. Convinced that she needs a change, Dez tells her boss that she's ready to move on. He gives her a farewell gift - one last case, involving a missing artifact. Dez and her partner hit the streets, and soon learn that the missing artifact is something more. To recover it, Dez will enter a world that few know about. Dez thought she'd seen it all ... she hadn't.When Dez left New York, she didn't think she'd end up back in Omaha, NE, her home town. But here she is three months later. After stints in Florida and the Big Apple, Omaha was an unexpected, but welcome change. But the grass isn't always greener on the other side. One evening, after hearing Dez speak to her female self-defense class, a student is killed in a hit-and-run. Dez gets the case, which leads to an unpleasant stroll down memory lane, with a character she'd rather forget, and involvement with some deadly corporate shenanigans.Eccentric Mayville Toussaint hires Dez to find two men who stole a box from her. Toussaint's instructions are simple - find the thieves, recover the box, and return it unopened. A dangerous game of cat and mouse, double-dealing and lying place Dez in harm's way. Dez recovers the box - case closed. But when returning the treasured item, Dez learns that Toussaint has been playing her own game of cat and mouse ... with Dez. Toussaint clearly is not who she seems. But who is she?

Описание:

Adoring Christ and becoming like Him is the most fundamental and crucial aspect of the human life. We long for love, beauty, power, security, and fame because these things describe God, who is majestic and beautiful. And He has designed humanity in His image to participate in His glorious likeness.

In Adoring Christ: Beholding God's Beauty and Becoming Like Him, author Kori de Leon discusses how adoring Christ sets our hearts free from self focus and pursuing glory in the wrong way so we can see the grandeur of God and participate in His glory the right way. Covering a wide range of topics like loveliness, dignity, and spiritual vitality this book specifically geared for women concludes each of its twelve chapters with a section designed to help readers actively engage with the truths presented in the book.

Glory is God's design for mankind. Together with the Bible, this book will encourage you to get lost in the wonder of God and His character as you enter into an adoration that will lead you to glorious transformation.

Описание: The classification of pituitary disease is becoming easier, and as targeted therapies are being developed, the role of the pathologist in determining accurate diagnoses is increasingly important. The surgical pathologist must therefore recognise the important role of morphologic analysis in classifying sellar pathology for the diagnosis and management of the pituitary patient. Highly illustrated.
