Synopsis

Historical Debates explores the ever-evolving interpretations of significant historical events and figures, emphasizing that history is not a fixed set of facts. The book delves into the subjectivity inherent in historical narratives, revealing how historians' biases and cultural contexts shape their understanding. Readers will discover the challenges of interpreting primary sources and how contemporary values influence our perspectives on the past, highlighting the importance of historical context when evaluating any historical claim.

 
The book progresses from introducing fundamental concepts of historical interpretation to detailed case studies, such as the Crusades and the French Revolution, illustrating diverse historical approaches to the same evidence. By presenting a balanced analysis of conflicting narratives and encouraging critical thinking, Historical Debates empowers readers to engage more deeply with history and its relevance to contemporary issues like social justice. This approach helps readers understand how historical narratives shape our understanding of identity, power, and social justice.

    In I Know My Father, Neville focuses on the intimate meaning of “God” as the indwelling “I AM.” Rather than a distant deity, the Father is the awareness that animates you—your very sense of being. The book connects scripture to personal experience, urging you to claim your divine inheritance by assuming the state you desire. It’s devotional in tone, yet grounded in Neville’s central practice: identity creates.
    
    “I AM” as the Father within
    Scripture interpreted as psychological truth
    Identity as the root of manifestation
    Faith as inner knowing, not hope

    From rediscovering an ancestral village in China to experiencing the realities of American life as a Nigerian, the search for belonging crosses borders and generations. Selected from the archives of Catapult magazine, the essays in A Map Is Only One Story highlight the human side of immigration policies and polarized rhetoric, as twenty writers share provocative personal stories of existing between languages and cultures. 
     
     
     
    Victoria Blanco relates how those with family in both El Paso and Ciudad Juárez experience life on the border. Nina Li Coomes recalls the heroines of Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki and what they taught her about her bicultural identity. Nur Nasreen Ibrahim details her grandfather's crossing of the India-Pakistan border sixty years after Partition. Krystal A. Sital writes of how undocumented status in the United States can impact love and relationships. Porochista Khakpour describes the challenges in writing (and rewriting) Iranian America.

    Sumer: The History of the Cities...

    When American archaeologists discovered a collection of cuneiform tablets in Iraq in the late 19th century, they were confronted with a language and a people who were at the time only scarcely known to even the most knowledgeable scholars of ancient Mesopotamia: the Sumerians. The exploits and achievements of other Mesopotamian peoples, such as the Assyrians and Babylonians, were already known to a large segment of the population through the Old Testament and the nascent field of Near Eastern studies had unraveled the enigma of the Akkadian language that was widely used throughout the region in ancient times, but the discovery of the Sumerian tablets brought to light the existence of the Sumerian culture, which was the oldest of all the Mesopotamian cultures. 
    Although the Sumerians continue to get second or even third billing compared to the Babylonians and Assyrians, perhaps because they never built an empire as great as the Assyrians or established a city as enduring and great as Babylon, they were the people who provided the template of civilization that all later Mesopotamians built upon. The Sumerians are credited with being the first people to invent writing, libraries, cities, and schools in Mesopotamia (Ziskind 1972, 34), and many would argue that they were the first people to create and do those things anywhere in world. 
    For a people so great it is unfortunate that their accomplishments and contributions, not only to Mesopotamian civilization but to civilization in general, largely go unnoticed by the majority of the public. Perhaps the Sumerians were victims of their own success; they gradually entered the historical record, established a fine civilization, and then slowly submerged into the cultural patchwork of their surroundings.

    From Dropout to Doctorate -...

    "The author's message is potent and timely... this is a vital call to reform a broken system." – Publishers Weekly Review, June 2025
    Discover An Inspiring Personal Story of Resilience, Redemption, and Advocacy
    Born into an impoverished community in a two-parent household that later fractured, Terence Lester and his sister were moved from place to place by their mother in a search for safety and stability. Carrying the heavy weight of that early trauma, Lester's path led him to gangs, juvenile delinquency, and even homelessness, at one point living out of his car. He eventually dropped out of high school, another statistic in a system designed to fail him.
    But his journey did not end in despair. Lester returned to school, graduating as a fifth-year senior against all odds. He went on to earn five degrees, including a PhD in public policy.
    A Story of Overcoming Systemic Barriers
    From Dropout to Doctorate is Terence Lester's powerful story of overcoming adversity to becoming a champion for educational equity. Lester shares his own story of resilience through trauma, perseverance through pain, and reliance upon community that led him to where he is today—not to glory in success, but to give back to the community that God used to shape him.
    Connecting his personal struggles to the larger, complex challenges faced by Black children in under-resourced communities, Lester's story brings attention to what must be done to ensure that others facing similar odds have the opportunity to achieve their own dreams.
    In this book, you will discover:
    
    - A compelling personal narrative of overcoming adversity, from homelessness and dropping out of high school to earning a doctorate.
    - In-depth insights into the realities of educational injustice and its impact on Black communities.
    - A thoughtful exploration of how poverty, unjust policies, and the school-to-prison pipeline disrupt lives and perpetuate systemic barriers.
    - An inspiring call for educators, leaders, and advocates to champion educational equity and a more just and inclusive world.
    
    A Call to Invest in a More Just Future
    As you travel with Lester through scenes both painful and hopeful from his early life, you'll see how God can take even the most broken parts of your story and use them for his glory. You'll be inspired to advocacy—to confront educational inequity and inspire change. From Dropout to Doctorate offers a hopeful pathway forward for those ready to reimagine what is possible for marginalized communities.
    Will you be the next one to make an impact?
