  Fighting Back is the story of Stan Andrews, an assimilated American Jew and World War II veteran who became one of the first fighter pilots in the history of the Israeli Air Force. 
   
   
   
  In 1948, Stan Andrews left a comfortable postwar life in Los Angeles to travel to the war-torn Middle East, where a four-front Arab invasion threatened to destroy the newly-declared State of Israel. There he joined the Israeli Air Force and became one of its first fighter pilots. Andrews was an unexpected volunteer for the fight for a Jewish state. He was many things—an artist, writer, assimilated Jew, ladies' man, pilot, and combat veteran of the Pacific War. He had previously been aloof from the struggle for Jewish independence but found himself so roused by the anti-Semitism of 1940s America that he decided to go to Israel and risk everything. Stan made the most of his time in Israel, serving in fighter and bomber squadrons and leaving his mark on an Israeli Air Force that has since become the stuff of legend.

  "Darkwater: Voices from Within the Veil" is a book written by William Edward Burghardt Du Bois, an American sociologist, historian, civil rights activist, and writer. The book was first published in 1920 and is a collection of essays, poems, and sketches that reflect on the experiences of African Americans in the United States. 
  The title of the book, "Darkwater," refers to the "veil" that Du Bois believes separates African Americans from white Americans. This veil is a metaphor for the racial divide in American society and the ways in which black people are excluded from full participation in American life. 
  The essays in "Darkwater" cover a wide range of topics, including the history of slavery and the Jim Crow era, the role of religion in African American communities, the relationship between black people and the natural world, and the struggles of black women. The book also includes several personal essays in which Du Bois reflects on his own experiences as a black man in America. 
  "Darkwater" is considered a groundbreaking work in African American literature and is widely regarded as one of Du Bois's most important books. The themes and ideas explored in the book continue to be relevant today and have influenced generations of writers and activists.

  - Darnell Moore, author of No Ashes in The Fire: Coming of Age Black and Free in America 
  "What an honor it has been to cultivate this manuscript and elevate the voice of Dr. Ashley Crooks-Allen. I published this book because I believe in its mission- to put together the broken and to create beauty from unexpected pieces. Ashley invites us to revisit subjects we may have fooled ourselves into thinking we'd moved on from- gently saying 'Aht-aht! There's more work to do here.'"

  We are much more than our personality type. The Enneagram Map to Your Deeper Self is an invitation to see ourselves as more than we believe we are, to learn and engage practices that liberate us from automatic patterns.  The Enneagram Map to Your Deeper Self is an invitation to see yourself as more than your personality type and engage in practices that liberate you from automatic patterns. Certified Narrative Enneagram teacher Sandra Smith, MDiv, has taught the Enneagram internationally as a tool for personal, professional, and spiritual development for over twenty-two years. She shows readers how to deepen their use of the Enneagram in support of their spiritual lives as well as psychological health.   With clarity and consistency, this book shows how to understand your Enneagram type without reinforcing the patterns of your type. The gift of the Enneagram is its accuracy to show us the motivations beneath behaviors and egoic patterns that limit us and keep us from growing. The Enneagram Map to Your Deeper Self discusses the makeup of these patterns and gives us a greater capacity to unhook from them. Free from these habits, we are able to live more mindfully and grow into our full dimensionality, becoming more of ourselves.   Smith provides a detailed teaching of the components of the Enneagram type structures along with type-specific practices to counter automatic patterns. Also included are contributions from a diverse range of Enneagram practitioners. With their help, Smith dives into the components of the Enneagram types to tease out the patterns and pitfalls preventing us from living our radiance. Prayers, poems, and practices beckon us out of our confining comfort zones and into witnessing and honoring our lives.
