Sobre IBD

While the nation is consumed with utilizing its time, talent and resources to fight a war on foreign soil, the real domestic battle continues to be ignored. This warfare can be found in any urbanized area in America. It can be found in our schools, in our single parent homes and in our correctional facilities. This combat can be detected on any city corner and in our once cohesive and loving communities. This conflict can be discovered in the prison of our minds.What must happen before those most affected realize that we must take ownership of this condition? When will we make a conscious decision to help ourselves? What will it take to call to arms a people willing to fervently work to put an end to a desperate plight that has haunted the so-called underprivileged far too long?The answers to these queries and many others lie embedded in the pages of these essays. Perspectives on the Real War: Essays of a Human Condition in Crisis is undoubtedly one of the most riveting, profound works to grace our lives since The Souls of Black Folk written by W.E. B. DuBois in 1903.We must make a drastic change while it is day. For night is drawing nigh and the end of time to reclaim the lost quickly approaching. We must seriously move beyond mere planning into effective execution. The season is ripe to reconcile, restore and redirect an endangered people hidden beneath the monoliths of racial and economic division.Divisions that serve as the cornerstone of our American society.

    del mayor guitarrista de la historia del tango. Con solo percibir el empleo del plectro (la llamada púa de guitarra en nuestro canyengue) descubrimos un sonido y estilo tan particular que terminó por deslumbrar a todos. Pero si decimos “bastaría”, en potencial, es que nos debemos mucho más: suele decirse del gran Aníbal Troilo que su música y sus orquestas son la gran marca de ...

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse. As Paul du Quenoy’s globetrotting criticism reveals, the arts were in a ferment that matched profound and yet totally unpredicted social...

Loomis shows in this groundbreaking volume, the you...
