Описание:
A biography with pictures about the career and life of Daryl E. Johnson, who attended Maggie L. Walker High School, Morgan State University and was drafted by the Boston Patriots in 1964.
In the words of Gayle Jones Carter:
Growing up in Richmond, Virginia, Daryl navigated the streets of our segregated city riding the back of buses, as we Blacks were forced to do in the late 50s. He had childish thoughts wondering why God had made him so dark, and why he couldn't look like "this one" or "that one." Yes, I gave him all the old clichйs about being a sweet black berry, and we laughed. He agreed with everything I said, and I could not stop laughing!
Daryl told me he was sprinkled with Holy Water at All Souls Presbyterian Church on Overbrook Road, and so was I. He said his baptism gave him a feeling of being protected and the comfort of belonging. Even though his father was absent from the home, his mother made sure she was an everlasting example of leadership and strength for her sons.
Perhaps the absence of a father gave Daryl his strong intestinal fortitude-the strength of mind that enabled him to face danger, endure pain and challenge adversity with courage. Today, Daryl is a family man, living in Massachusetts... dealing with some ailments that resulted from playing a rough and dangerous sport. He is happy and says he has never been depressed. Daryl is a man speaking his truths and his convictions to all. He loves to laugh and enjoys all genres of music, from Ave Maria to LXW's Great God, to R&B to George Benson, to Yuna's Blank Marquee. The following photographs and documents are treasures from Daryl's collection. Every aspect of his sporting career-both public and private-are explored and richly reproduced. You will see... Daryl's marquee is far from being blank.

Описание: The new edition of an American masterpiece, this is the harrowing story of Ursa Corregidora, a blues singer in the early 20th century forced to confront the inherited trauma of slavery. Selected and first edited by Toni Morrison, it is "the most brutally honest and painful revelation of what has occurred, and is occurring, in the souls of Black men and women," (James Baldwin) and "a tale as American as Mount Rushmore and as murky as the Florida swamps." (Maya Angelou). A literary classic that remains vital to our understanding of the past, Corregidora is Gayl Jones's powerful debut novel, examining womanhood, sexuality, and the psychological residue of slavery. Jones masterfully tells the story of Ursa, a Kentucky blues singer, who, in the wake of a tragic loss, confronts her maternal history and the legacy of Corregidora, the Portuguese slave master who fathered both her mother and grandmother. Consumed and haunted by her hatred of the man who irrevocably shaped her life and the lives of her family, Ursa Corregidora must come to terms with a past that is never too distant from the present.
