    The Manhattan Project would ultimately yield the “Little Boy” and “Fat Man” bombs that released more than 100 Terajoules of energy at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but as it turned out, the Axis were not far behind with their own nuclear weapons program. When the Nazis’ quest for a nuclear weapon began in earnest in 1939, no one really had a handle on how important nuclear weapons would prove to war and geopolitics. The attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, along with the Cold War-era tests and their accompanying mushroom clouds, would demonstrate the true power and terror of nuclear weapons, but in the late 1930s these bombs were only vaguely being thought through, particularly after the successful first experiment to split the atom by a German scientist. The nuclear age itself was in its infancy, barely 35 years old, but within a few short years the advent of nuclear war loomed over the world and the prospect of the enemy winning the nuclear race kept Allied leaders awake at night. 
    In November 1921, roughly a year after the Treaty of Versailles came into effect, Japan, Britain, and the United States gathered to sign another treaty of disarmament at the Washington Naval Conference. However, Japan opted against renewing the pact in the mid-1930s, and around the same time, Germany openly breached the terms of the former treaty and began to restock their weapons. This gave rise to the birth of a new and unprecedented arms race, one that had catastrophically disastrous consequences about a decade later. 
    Although their project is typically overlooked given the American use of the bombs and then the Soviets following suit early on in the Cold War, the Japanese avidly pursued nuclear weapons as well.

    Chivalry, a code of conduct and a set of ideals, emerged during the early Middle Ages, forming the backbone of the knightly order and defining the conduct of warriors across Europe. The origins of chivalry can be traced back to the feudal system, where the role of the knight was essential in maintaining the social and political structure of the time. Knights were initially seen as mounted warriors serving a lord or king, and their duties were deeply intertwined with the political and military landscapes of medieval society. 
    The concept of chivalry grew from various sources, including the martial traditions of early medieval Europe, the influence of the church, and the rising importance of courtly love in literature. Early codes of conduct, though not uniform, emphasized qualities such as bravery, loyalty, and honor. These ideals were primarily martial in nature, as knights were expected to protect their lords and lands from invaders. Over time, however, the influence of Christianity began to shape the code of chivalry, adding elements of piety, mercy, and the protection of the weak. 
    One of the key influences in the development of chivalry was the rise of feudalism. As the Roman Empire fell and Europe entered a period of fragmentation, the feudal system became the dominant form of social and economic organization. Lords granted land to vassals in exchange for military service, and knights became essential for the protection of these lands. This system encouraged the development of a warrior class that was bound by loyalty and honor, principles that would later become central to chivalric codes.

    ". . . brutally honest . . . a compelling work. GET IT" -Kirkus Reviews 
     "Moving story of an adopted daughter's search for her own voice." -Booklife 
    "Well-written and poignant . . . engaging. Feelings and experiences to which many adoptees can relate." 
    -Betsie Norris, Founder and Executive Director, Adoption Network Cleveland 
    In 1947, in Celina, Ohio, Dr. Ralph Beare and his wife, Lou, childless and in their early forties, adopted a four-and-a-half-month-old orphan. “Janice” knew she was adopted, because her mommy read her a book about how the Beare's chose her out of a Home. "We chose you, but we love you as if you were our own." However, her mother never seemed to forget she was adopted, especially on Mother’s Day, when she couldn’t look at Janice without crying. 
    Janice learned that most grown-ups in town knew her as "Dr. Beare's Daughter." Her daddy took her everywhere and people stopped to stoop down and tell her how he had saved their lives.  
    With her red hair and freckles, Janice didn't look like her dark-haired parents. Her struggle to become that elusive golden child that she imagined they really wanted came with the erasure of her own identity. Still, there was a small voice, deep inside her, that popped up at the most inconvenient times, saying, "I'm here." Try as she might to silence it, her true self often slipped out to take charge, and then there was trouble.

    Will we choose life for our children and the future of our planet? Everywhere we look, we see signs that all is not right with our earth: Extreme weather patterns wreak havoc. Pollutants sour soils and waterways. Fires and floods ravage land and communities. Climate change is just a symptom of a larger ecological crisis. If we want change, the solutions can’t come through the same systems that created those problems. ​ Ecological justice requires us to challenge our assumptions about creation and our relationship to it. It requires decolonization. We must turn to the leadership of Indigenous communities who struggle for all life as land and water protectors, and we must call on people of faith to join them—to confront climate change and resource extraction and choose life for our children and the future of our planet. This book offers hope for a better future alongside concrete actions for joining with Indigenous Peoples to protect life and negotiate with decision-makers for sustainable change that follows Jesus.

    A Better Black Wall Street is a book that focuses on a movement to create a robust economic system for Black Americans and those in need. The book delves into Business Transparency, emphasizing Trust, Integrity, Openness, and more. The goal of leveraging technology, communication, and AI is to foster unity through interviews, discussions, storytelling, and the reinvention of true brotherhood and sisterhood to maintain a strong sense of community. Learning from the past, we create a protective shield around us, keeping our memories fresh about the hindrances others have placed in our path to success, including those we have imposed on ourselves. To truly understand the necessity of this movement, one must reflect on the historical challenges and systemic barriers that Black Americans have encountered in their pursuit of economic success. This movement seeks to empower individuals by instilling a sense of self-worth and pride and encouraging entrepreneurship and innovation in adversity. Through collaboration and shared experiences, we aim to build a supportive network that uplifts and celebrates the achievements of the Black community, paving the way for a brighter and more equitable future for all.
