Summary

W.E.B. Du Bois's "Du Bois: Essays" is a compelling collection that delves into the complexities of race, identity, and sociology in America. The essays are characterized by Du Bois's incisive prose and a blend of personal narrative and rigorous academic analysis, offering readers profound insights into the African American experience during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His literary style is marked by eloquence and a keen observational acumen, positioning him as a pioneer of sociological thought and an early voice of the civil rights movement. Presented in a historical context where race relations were tumultuous, Du Bois'Äôs work critically examines the societal structures that perpetuate inequality and injustice. W.E.B. Du Bois, an esteemed sociologist, historian, and civil rights activist, played a pivotal role in shaping African American identity and thought. A graduate of Fisk University and Harvard, he became the first African American to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1895. His extensive work as a co-founder of the NAACP and editor of The Crisis reflects a commitment not only to social justice but also to the empowerment of African Americans through education and advocacy, infusing his essays with urgency and purpose. "Du Bois: Essays" is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the historical and socio-political landscape of race in America. For students, scholars, and general readers alike, Du Bois's eloquent discourse invites reflection on contemporary issues that resonate to this day, making it a timeless contribution to American literature and social thought.

    An MDLG and ABDL themed love story for the age play fetishist. 
    Please note: This book contains content only appropriate for individuals interested in the MDLG subgroup of BDSM. It includes kink related themes, psychological power-play both sexual and non-sexual, sub training in diaper wetting, punishment by bondage, spankings, butt plug, and genital teasing. 
    The story is a work of fiction, and although based on multiple personal experiences, Tina Moore does not assume to speak for the entire community. She also believes that the kink is as broad and diverse as the consenting adults who engage in it, and thus there is not a ‘correct’ way to be a consenting adult involved in age play and/or regression. 
    Tina Moore would like to thank all her loyal, supportive, and loving fans. She wishes you every happiness and success and hopes that you stay safe, calm, and healthy.

    Do you believe in evolution, but do not see this belief as necessarily negating the existence of an advanced Intelligence?  
    If so, you may find comfort, inspiration, and perhaps even proof for your beliefs within this ancient Hindu work.  
    The Aitareya Upanishad, which dates back to somewhere around 600-500 BCE, takes us through a journey … the journey of creation. It then leads us through the evolutionary changes that have brought us into this day and age and beyond, into the stage of existence that the ancient Hindus believed would come next. We were all created, the Hindus tell us, for a reason, and we are all evolving towards a particular state of beingness.  
    How can the Hindus be so sure that evolution is fact, and how can they be so sure that there is some sort of Intelligence behind it all? The Hindu religion is the oldest on earth. Their ancestors claim to have actually witnessed a small portion of evolution in action, and through their experiences, also claim to have discovered the underlying intent of life (both in the general and the individual sense). This work goes into these experiences and the insights the Hindus claim to have gained from them. 
    Also included in this narrative is an early Hindu concept of time and space that is extremely difficult to wrapt the human mind around. These concepts, however, coincide very closely with the findings of modern physics. 
    This work is my interpretation of the Aitareya Upanishad. I have endeavored to simplify its teachings, expand where needed, and include modern concepts, discoveries, and quotes to make the central concepts found within it more digestible to modern seekers, especially beginners.
