Barack Obama’s Speeches

Achille Albonetti

Summary

The greatest and most conflicted nation of our world democratically chose an Afro-American to serve as first citizen, and it happened twice already. On the 4th of November 2008, Barack Obama was elected President of the United States of America by defeating the Republican candidate, Senator John McCain and by prevailing over Hillary Clinton. On the 6th of November 2012, he was confirmed in his office when he triumphed over the Republican candidate, Mitt Romney. 
This was an unprecedented event. By making this choice, the United States of America stressed the importance of equality between men and women, the equal dignity, and the fact that everyone can aim for the highest office in the land. This collection of speeches of President Obama highlights not only the traits which make him an undeniable charismatic leader; but also, his great humanity and the wisdom that lies underneath his unforgettable words.

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.

The Silence Between Stitches -...

Tessa Marie Vaughn

After the death of her husband, Miriam retreats into the quiet rhythm of quiltmaking and life on the farm. Each stitch is a thread of memory, a safeguard against a world that has taken too much. Her days are measured in silence—safe, predictable, untouched by risk.
 
Then Levi returns.
 
Her late husband’s cousin, long absent from the community, arrives to help with the harvest. He brings quiet strength, gentle hands, and a past that lingers like unfinished seams. Miriam never asked for company, especially not from someone who once cared too much, too silently.
 
Levi has carried his own burden of guilt for years. His feelings for Miriam were always hidden, always wrong. But now, as autumn settles in and hours are shared between fences, fields, and fading light, something stirs again—soft, tentative, undeniable.
 
In a world stitched by grief and custom, can two hearts find the courage to create something new from the silence between stitches?
