Описание:
Black Power, Black Lawyer is a memoir that stitches suspense, calamity, humor and wit into a tapestry of history, politics, law, culture and romance. Both serious and scandalous, Nkechi Taifa's audacious quest for justice is a gripping commentary on life; the perennial nature of human resistance against oppression; and her earnest embrace of what is fair and correct. Sometimes raw, sometimes abrasive, sometimes passionate, Taifa offers her truth, unapologetically and unfiltered, with honesty and authenticity.
Her memoir is the story of a quest rarely told. The search for the resisters and the rebellious; the pursuit of issues on the cutting edge. Although there are memoirs that chronicle iconic leaders striving for justice during the civil rights era, there is scant reminiscence of the transformative journeys for self-realization of ordinary people growing up during the tumultuous Black Power era. Black Power, Black Lawyer offers a uniquely personal glimpse from an insider's perspective into little known or understood parts of this country's history - from juicy stories of the more controversial and militant aspects of the Black liberation struggle, to the craziness of congressional "sausage-making" and the pivotal role of "strange bedfellows."
Navigate this audacious quest with Taifa as she bears witness to ancestors, people and episodes that swayed the shaping of her identity and consciousness. No matter which vantage point she found herself - from sitting on the lap of that fine brother pulling security in the front office of the Black Panther Party; to getting arrested right after graduating from law school; to being accused of being an FBI agent; to representing the lead defendant in the Capitol Bombing case; to being detained at an airport five months pregnant as an alleged enemy of the state; to winning a six-figure settlement for clients in a pivotal employment discrimination suit against a major news media network; or to being a catalyst which sparked the change to the infamous crack cocaine laws -- her quest for justice in society reigned supreme.
Taifa's memoir is sure to awaken, inform, provoke, move and, at its best, fire you up to either join, or continue, "The Struggle "

Suddenly, a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. The disciples went and woke Him, saying, "Lord, save us We're going to drown " He replied, "You of little faith why are you so afraid?" Then He got up and rebuked the winds and waves, and it was completely calm. The men were amazed and asked "What kind of man is this? Even the winds and waves obey Him " Matthew 8:24-27 (NIV)
Often, we can find ourselves lost in the wonder of what God is capable of. But, we can also at times lose track of what it means to be children of God. Many believe that if you walk with the Lord that you should not face trials, but this is not true; rather, you walk with the Lord through the trials. He can calm the raging storm in an instant, but sometimes we must face it with Him.
In her book, What Kind of Man Is This?, author Nkechi Chinedum Uwaga shares a glimpse into her loving relationship with her Savior Jesus Christ. Her personal testimonies provide a thoughtful and insightful look into the glory that the Lord is capable of and what life can look like if you are close to the Lord.
This journey of love, faith, God's faithfulness, and answered prayers invites others to embrace the Savior in their lives. The path that God led Nkechi and her family down is now the bedrock of her faith. She is sharing her story here in hopes that you may find similarities with your own experiences and see how the Lord may work in your life. Discover how the Lord will help provide for you, will answer prayers, and can bless your life.
If you are in the eye of a storm, cling to the Lord. We will be tested, and we will face hard times--but Jesus can help you through the storm and calm the seas you are traveling in your Christian journey.

A new job; the hoped-for spouse; a baby that seemed impossible to conceive; a difficult exam: these are prayers people bring to the feet of Jesus, but may or may not believe, in their hearts, God can make into realities. Include also a society where the drive to do things your way is seen as better than God's way, and we drift further from knowing God fulfills our every need. However, author Nkechi Chinedum Uwaga wholeheartedly believes anything asked of God in prayer is to be received if one has faith that this is God's will and He can do the impossible. She seeks to inspire readers' prayer lives and hope in God's abilities to provide in her new, nonfiction book, Ask and It Will Be Given You, For Everyone Who Asks Receives. Stemming from the scripture verses of Matthew 7:7-8, "Ask, and it will be given you...," Nkechi educates readers on the belief that when we ask needs for our lives, God will provide when we pray in knowledge that He alone can produce this hope, provision, or dream. Nkechi goes methodically through important attributes of prayer for needs, beginning with why we should ask God to fulfill our needs to how all perfect gifts come from God and concluding with reasons to not give up when our prayers aren't "answered" in a timely manner to us. Stories of the Bible, such as the Syrophoenician woman with the demon-possessed daughter, as well as Nkechi's own experiences give readers plausible examples of exercised faith shown to God in prayer and the positive results to come from them. So, what do you need to lay in prayer at God's feet? For Nkechi, anything can become a reality when given to our Father in heaven who gives good gifts to those who ask Him (Matt. 7:11).
