  An engaging examination of Black Girl Magic and its significance in American literature 
   
   
   
  In Light and Legacies, author Janaka Bowman Lewis examines Black girlhood in American literature from the mid-twentieth century to the present. The representation of Black girlhood in contemporary literature has long remained underexplored. Through this literary history of "Black Girl Magic," Lewis offers one of the first studies in this rapidly growing field of study. Light and Legacies poignantly showcases the activist dimensions of creative literature through work by women writers such as Toni Morrison and Toni Cade. As vectors of protest, these stories reflect historical events while also creating an enduring space of liberation and expression. The book provides didactic and reflective portrayals of the Black experience—an experience that has long been misunderstood. In a work both enlightening and personal, Lewis brilliantly weaves accounts of her own journey together with the liberating stories that shaped her and so many others.

  Public Safety: A Necessity

  O. T. Osawaru

  A community without public safety will be like the land of Israel in those days when there was no king in Israel—everyone does what seems good to them. They kill at will, rape both men, women, and children at will, steal at will, and whatsoever seems good to them, just like the animal kingdom. 
  I, O. T. Osawaru, the author of this book, observed that our societies are gradually becoming lawless. The police and other public safety departments were defunded while empowering criminals and making them heroes. Hence the need to write this book. And to shift our focus on the consequence of these acts and bring back law and order in our societies to preserve lives and properties. 
  After listening to this book, I pray you will become an advocate for the need for public safety and the funding of every public safety body—furthermore, to encourage every public safety officer for their noble service in our societies.

  One night in 2009, Tanya Frank finds her nineteen-year-old son, Zach—gentle and full of promise—in the grip of what the psychiatrists would label a psychotic break. Suddenly and inexplicably, Tanya is thrown into a parallel universe: Zach's world, where the phones are bugged, his friends have joined the Mafia, and helicopters are spying on his family. 
   
   
   
  In the years following Zach's shifting psychiatric diagnoses, Tanya goes to war for her son, desperate to find the right answer, the right drug, the right doctor to bring him back to reality. Meanwhile, the boy she raised—the chatty, precocious dog-lover, the teenager who spent summers surfing with his big brother, the UCLA student—suffers the effects of multiple hospitalizations, powerful drugs that blunt his emotions, therapies that don't work, and torturous nights on the streets. Holding on to startling moments of hope and seeking solace in nature and community, Tanya learns how to abandon her fears for the future and accept the mysteries of her son’s altered states. 
   
   
   
  With tenderness, lyricism, and generous candor, this compelling story conveys the power of a mother's love. Zig-Zag Boy is both a moving lamentation for things lost and a brave testament to the people we become in difficult circumstances.
