    Tuskegee Airmen and Montford...

    The United States has no shortage of famous military units, from the Civil War’s Iron Brigade to the 101st Airborne, but one would be hard pressed to find one that had to go through as many hardships off the field as the Tuskegee Airmen, a group of African American fighter pilots who overcame Jim Crow at home and official segregation in the military to serve their country in the final years of World War II. In fact, it required a concerted effort by groups such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the extreme circumstances brought about by World War II that the military eventually decided to establish the “Tuskegee Experiment.” 
    The black crews trained at Tuskegee before being sent overseas, and even then, they faced discrimination from those who didn’t trust them to do more than escort bombers flown by white pilots. However, as the men proved their worth in the heat of battle, some of the squadrons’ red markings helped them earn the nickname “Red Tails,” and their track record was so good that eventually the white pilots of American bombers wanted to fly with them. As Tuskegee airman Roscoe Brown eloquently put it, “They have a saying that excellence is the antidote to prejudice; so, once you show you can do it, some of the barriers will come down.” 
    In the summer of 1942, the first group of African American recruits stepped off a bus into the pine woods of North Carolina, bound for an experiment the Marine Corps had long vowed never to attempt. Their destination - Montford Point, a hastily constructed satellite to the new Camp Lejeune - was more than a training ground. It was a compromise with democracy, a segregated doorway into an institution that had defined itself for generations by who could not enter. The Corps’ exclusivity had a racial edge, as the Marines had barred black men outright from 1798 all the way up the start of the Second World War.

    ""Dispels the myth that people of color are somehow predisposed to poor health, blaming systemic injustice in the health care system."" —New York Times Book Review 
    Legendary comedian D.L. Hughley uses his ""hilarious yet soul-shaking"" (Black Enterprise) humor to confront racism's unjust impact on the health and wellbeing of Blacks and minorities  
    White people love survival guides. But have you noticed they’re always about ridiculous activities in locations far from home, with chapters like “How to Survive an Avalanche"" or ""How to Live on Bugs in the Jungle.” Huh?! 
    You know who really needs a survival guide? Black and brown Americans. For surviving their own damn country! Minority populations wake up every day in a battle for their health and safety. Thankfully, legendary activist-comedian D.L. Hughley offers How to Survive America, a fearless satire that exposes racism’s unjust toll on our bodies and minds. 
    Even before COVID-19 disproportionately impacted minority communities, life expectancy for Blacks was a full three years less than for white Americans. The very air we breathe is more polluted, our water is more contaminated, our local food options are toxic, and our jobs are underpaid. Despite the obvious need, the quality of our health care is tragically inadequate. Our communities are statistically less safe than the average, and yet we’re terrorized by the law-enforcement and criminal-justice systems that are supposed to protect us, sending Blacks to prison at five times the rate of whites. Not least, our means of addressing these injustices—voting—is perennially under assault. 
    It’s enough to drive you crazy. Well, guess what? According to Cigna, Blacks are 20 percent more likely to report “psychological distress” yet “50 percent less likely to receive counseling or mental health treatment.” It’s almost like the entire country has been structured with no regard for our welfare. Hmmm. 
    Whether you’re Black, white, brown, or Asian, don’t leave home without arming yourself with How to Survive America!

    Let this beautiful book of affirmations guide and soothe your day. Soft, profound, reflective, and beautiful, they perfectly embody James Allen's integrated and spiritual life.Thirty-one thoughts for the beginning and end of the day from one of the original pioneers of the self-help movement, these softly spoken and hypnotically beautiful passages are set to gentle music to help you internalise and sublimate thoughts and habits of right action.Woven from a cloth of Buddhism, Confucianism, Daoism and Christianity, this book is a perfect accompaniment to the rest of Allen's more practical or direct works. In this book, there are no polemics or breakdowns; just gentle thoughts, beautifully expressed. ---------------------------------------Author of As A Man Thinketh, James Allen was a pioneer of a new, secular and humanist spirituality. Being born poor in the Victorian era, with a father who was murderd when James was 15, he found a deeply grounded and spiritually profound application of the Eastern thinking that was only just beginning to percolate through society in Victorian England.

    If there is one thing I believe I have held fast all these years, it is the one that holds no shame in all the intricacies of the human mind, body, and soul. What intrigues me the most is how two or more people can create rhythms, music, trust, and bodily pleasure. No matter what debauchery society might try to bestow on those who seek a little bit of freedom using a natural and exciting mechanism, I offer no judgment. This book is a series of stories to “get the juices flowing” and probably allow you to be more comfortable with yourself and maybe your partner(s). Outlined is an array of adventures, kinky twists, and quirks you will enjoy. I know I certainly enjoyed curating them for you. 
    This book is a no-holds-barred platform, and it is certainly not a euphemism for the soft, adulterated, hidden wantings of intimacy. 
    It is a dive into the art of satisfying primal needs with drooling, tears, a tinge of unrepentant guilt, and, dare I say, pleasurable heavings, screams, and possible drownings as the best possible side effects. 
    Between your wildest imaginations and a rather sultrily dexterous pen, shameless pleasure is the only goal. 
    With you in mind, 
    Ben Dover
