  • At the Mercy of Tiberius a Novel
    AT THE MERCY OF TIBERIUS A NOVEL By AUGUSTA JANE EVANS AT THE MERCY OF TIBERIUS CHAPTER I. "You are obstinate and ungrateful. You would rather see me suffer and die, than bend your stubborn pride in the effort to obtain relief for me. You will not try to save me." The thin, hysterically unsteady voice ended in a sob, and the frail wasted form of the speaker leaned forward, as if the issue of life or death hung upon an answer. The tower clock of a neighboring church began to strike the hour of noon, and not until the echo of the last stroke had died away, was there a reply to the appeal. "Mother, try to be just to me. My pride is for you, not for myself. I shrink from seeing my mother crawl to the feet of a man, who has disowned and spurned her; I cannot consent that she should humbly beg for rights, so unnaturally withheld. Every instinct of my nature revolts from the step you require of me, and I feel as if you held a hot iron in your hand, waiting to brand me." "Your proud sensitiveness runs in a strange groove, and it seems you would prefer to see me a pauper in a Hospital, rather than go to your grandfather and ask for help. Beryl, time presses, and if I die for want of aid, you will be responsible; when it is too late, you will reproach yourself. If I only knew where and how to reach my dear boy, I should not importune you.

  • We Organize for Knowledge and Empowerment 2017 Conference Booklet
    W.O.K.E. ‘17 An Institute for College Men of Color We Organize for Knowledge and Empowerment 2017 Conference Booklet Saturday, May 6, 2017 Chicago, Illinois Letter from the Conference Chairs Greetings, Welcome to the inaugural We Organize for Knowledge and Empowerment Conference a.k.a. W.O.K.E. 17! We are glad that you took the time to join us for what is sure to be a dynamic day. There are a number of conference in the United States that are specifically geared towards undergraduate men. Most of which, engage men in masculinity work, but fail to address issues of race and the intersections of race and gender. Our goal was to produce a one-day conference experience which addresses the intersection of race and gender grounded in theory. In this one-day conference we aim to explore the identities of men of color and their socialization within the United States. Using the Cycle of Liberation as a framework for the schedule, you all as undergraduate men of color will engage deeply around your identities, name injustices, build community within and outside of your racial identity, and begin to construct an action plan to combat racism and sexism in your communities. The conference will be divided into five stages that mirror the five beginning levels of the Cycle of Liberation. Using Cycle of Socialization, Privilege Identity Exploration, and Critical Race Theories, we hope you will begin to work through a critical consciousness towards creating effective change in society. Get ready to WAKE UP the activist in you! Let’s get to work.

  • Runaway American Dream, Hope and Disillusion in the Early Work
    Runaway American Dream HOPE AND DISILLUSION IN THE EARLY WORK OF BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN Two young Mexican immigrants who risk their lives trying to cross the border; thousands of factory workers losing their jobs when the Ohio steel industry collapsed; a Vietnam veteran who returns to his hometown, only to discover that he has none anymore; and young lovers learning the hard way that romance is a luxury they cannot afford. All of these people have two things in common. First, they are all disappointed that, for them, the American dream has failed. Rather, it has become a bitter nightmare from which there is no waking up. Secondly, their stories have all been documented by the same artist – a poet of the poor as it were – from New Jersey. Over the span of his 43-year career, Bruce Springsteen has captured the very essence of what it means to dream, fight and fail in America. That journey, from dreaming of success to accepting one’s sour destiny, will be the main subject of this paper. While the majority of themes have remained present in Springsteen’s work up until today, the way in which they have been treated has varied dramatically in the course of those more than forty years. It is this evolution that I will demonstrate in the following chapters. But before looking at something as extensive as a life-long career, one should first try to create some order in the large bulk of material. Many critics have tried to categorize Springsteen’s work in numerous ‘phases’. Some of them have reasonable arguments, but most of them made the mistake of creating strict chronological boundaries between relatively short periods of time1, unfortunately failing to see the numerous connections between chronologically remote works2 and the continuity that Springsteen himself has pointed out repeatedly.
