Sinopsis

"Jazz Radio Legacy" explores the vital, yet often overlooked, connection between jazz music and radio broadcasting. This book highlights how radio served as a crucial platform for disseminating jazz, shaping its evolution and securing its place in American cultural history. Readers will discover how radio not only amplified the sounds of jazz across geographical boundaries but also fostered a sense of community among listeners, critics, and performers. For example, the book illuminates how historically Black colleges and universities utilized radio to champion this emerging art form.

 
The book progresses chronologically, beginning with the parallel emergence of jazz and radio in the early 20th century. It examines the impact of network radio during the Swing Era and the role of independent stations in preserving bebop. By drawing on archival recordings, oral histories, and industry data, "Jazz Radio Legacy" offers a comprehensive and engaging look at the symbiotic relationship between jazz and radio, highlighting its enduring legacy in the digital age.

    "The Communist Manifesto," co-authored by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in 1848, is a profound critique of capitalism and a blueprint for a new social order, communism. It argues that the proletariat, or working class, will lead the revolution against the capitalist system's inherent class inequalities. 
    Spanning four sections, the manifesto traces class struggles, critiques the bourgeoisie, reviews socialist and communist literature, and examines the position of communists relative to opposition parties. 
    In reading this key political tract, remember it is a product of its time. Yet its discourse on wealth, power, and economic disparity remains relevant today. This timeless work invites us to critically examine our society, offering crucial insights into socio-political ideologies shaping our world.

    Robert Foley had only been in Vietnam for six months when he was promoted to captain and given command of a rifle company. In November 1966, Foley led his men on a mission to rescue another company that had been pinned down by Viet Cong forces. His leadership that day inspired his men and led to a successful operation—and the Medal of Honor. His actions in Vietnam were only a small portion of a long and varied career of service in the US Army, but Foley did not always seem marked for success. Coming from a blue-collar suburb of Boston, his years in West Point were marked by poor grades, injuries, and sickness. With a determination to lead by example and inspire trust among others, Foley served across the globe and rose through the ranks. He even returned to West Point as Commandant of Cadets, later retiring as a 3-star general and commander of Fifth Army.

    Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist
    A Groundbreaking Portrait of African American Christianity
    The history of African American Christianity is one of the determined faith of a people driven to pursue spiritual and social uplift for themselves and others to God's glory. Yet stories of faithful Black Christians have often been forgotten or minimized. The dynamic witness of the Black church in the United States is an essential part of Christian history that must be heard and dependably retold.
    In this groundbreaking two-volume work, Walter R. Strickland II does just that through a theological-intellectual history highlighting the ways theology has formed and motivated Black Christianity across the centuries. Through his original research he has identified five theological anchors grounding African Americans in Christian orthodoxy:
    
    - Big God
    - Jesus
    - Conversion and walking in the Spirit
    - The Good Book
    - Deliverance
    In volume 1, a narrative history, Strickland tells the story of these themes from the 1600s to the present. He explores the crucial ecclesiastical, social, and theological developments, including the rise of Black evangelicalism as well as broader contributions to politics and culture.
    Swing Low offers a defining rubric under which to observe, understand, and learn from the diverse and living entity that is African American Christianity. Volume 2, a companion anthology, covers the breadth of these historical developments by presenting primary-source documents so we can listen to Black Christianity in its own words.
