  • Fast Lane by Kristen Ashley
    FAST LANE BY KRISTEN ASHLEY Acknowledgments Many moons ago, I had the occasion to really listen to the song “Life in the Fast Lane” by The Eagles. I’d heard it before, tons of times. But on that listen, something struck me. Being a romantic at heart, a romance novelist and addicted to romance for as long as I can remember, that song captured me as lyrics often do. Especially if a love story is told. Any kind of love story. Even the ones without happy endings. Maybe especially ones without happy endings. So much said in a few spare lines. So many emotions welling. And as is the magic of music, on each new listen, it happens again like you’d never heard that song before. I became obsessed with it, inspired by this cautionary tale, and determined to find the right story that would fit that inspiration. It was something I thought I’d fiddle with “someday,” which is where a great number of my ideas or inspirations are relegated. Then I read Taylor Jenkins Reid’s Daisy Jones and the Six. I have never, in my life, put down a book because I was loving it so much, I had to draw it out for as long as I could. And then, weeks later, I picked it up, only begrudgingly, because I knew opening that book again would mean finishing it, and I never wanted it to end. The fresh, unique way TJR told that story as an oral history of a 70s rock band blew my mind.

  • A Prisoner Story: the Third Turkey
    A PRISONER STORY: THE THIRD TURKEY G. David Curry: Professor Emeritus, University Of Missouri-St. Louis, USA Many men on their release carry their prison about with them into the air, and hide it as a secret disgrace in their hearts, and at length, like poor poisoned things, creep into some hole and die. It is wretched that they should have to do so, and it is wrong, terribly wrong, of society that it should force them to do so. Oscar Wilde, 2011, De Profundis Kindle Edition, Golgotha Press. Locations 175-177. A Bus Ride The night was one of those nights when I wasn’t sure if I slept at all. I was excited. Something was going to change, but I didn’t know exactly what or how. The only person whom I was able to reach by phone on the day that I found out that I was going to be moved was my friend Jane. Prison phone calls are like that. There is no leaving of messages. There is no making two calls without stressing potentially fatal line etiquette. I could only hope that Jane, whose own husband was incarcerated would be able to reach my ever stalwartly protective attorney Arthur Madden. I was a pro bono case for Arthur, but that was not a qualification affecting his actions on my behalf. As I hopelessly tried to sleep, I distinctly remember the shadow of prison bars on the top bunk a few feet away. The shadow of the bars were a stark reminder that I was caged in what e.e.

  • Slaves' Resistance on Southern Plantations
    National Humanities Center Resource Toolbox The Making of African American Identity: Vol. I, 1500-1865 SLAVES’ RESISTANCE on Southern Plantations *Selections from the WPA Slave Narratives Over 2300 former slaves were interviewed during the Great Depression of the 1930s by members of the Federal Writers' Project, a New Deal agency in the Works Progress Administration (WPA). Many recount acts of resistance ⎯ direct and indirect ⎯ performed despite the risk of severe punishment. Praying for strength was an act of resistance in itself, explains Delia Garlic. “We didn’t ’spect nothin’ but to stay in bondage ’till we died.” Note: Selections from the narratives are presented as transcribed. Black interviewees often referred to them-selves with terms that in some uses are considered offensive. Some white interviewers, despite project guidelines for transcribing the narratives, used stereotypical patterns of representing black speech. See “A Note on the Language of the Narratives” at lcweb2.loc.gov/ammem/snhtml/snlang.html and “Guidelines for Interview- ers” at national humanitiescenter.org/pds/maai/wpanarrsuggestions.pdf. One day I remembers my brother, January, was cotched ober [caught over] seein’ a gal on de next plantation. He had a pass but de time on it done gib out. Well suh, when de massa found out dat he wuz a hour late, he got as mad as a hive of bees. So when brother “January neber said a word” January he come home, de massa took down his long mule skinner1 and William Colbert, 1937 tied him wid a rope to a pine tree. He strip’ his shirt off and said: “Now, nigger, I’m goin’ to teach you some sense.” Wid dat he started layin’ on de lashes.

As you sing the songs again, may they recall memories of sunny days, and some misty and rainy ones too, of sailing on sparkling blue water, of cantering along leafy trails, of exploring the beach when the tide is out.

  • Camp Illahee Songbook
    Illahee Songbook Camp Songs Praise Songs Blessings A Day in the Life There are times in my life, when I am so afraid, And I can’t seem to find where I belong. I will love who I am, and learn from my mistakes, For we all have our own special song. Chorus And the life I live, and the love I give, Will flow free like the rivers and the streams, And wherever I go, I will always know, It’s a day in the life of my dreams. I will reach out my hand, to show that I care, And encourage those whose tears they cannot hide, I will learn how to trust, and to ask when I need help, And to talk about my feelings deep inside. Chorus I have dreams, I have songs, that I carry in my heart, As I walk in harmony upon the earth, Like the sun in the sky, the leaves beneath the wind, I will realize the value of my worth. Chorus Annie Mae Annie Mae, where are you going? Upstairs to take a bath. Annie Mae with legs like toothpicks, And a neck like a giraffe. Annie Mae stepped in the bathtub, Annie Mae pulled out the plug, Oh my goodness, Oh my soul, There goes Annie Mae down that hole! Annie Mae, Annie Mae, glub, glub, glub Ash Grove Down yonder green valley where streamlets meander, When twilight is fading, I pensively roam. Or at the bright noontide in solitude wander, Amid the dark shades of the lonely ash grove.
