Wainwright, which guaranteed all criminal defendants the right to legal counsel, Chasing Gideon offers a personal journey through our systemic failure to fulfill this basic constitutional right. Following its publication, Chasing Gideon became an integral part of a growing national conversation about how to reform indigent defense in America and inspired an HBO documentary as well as the resource website GideonAt Keff, a boy who comes from Africa, is different to the rest of the boys in his class.
He writes love poems and poetic pieces for which he is constantly mocked by the others. But he finds hope in his belief that one day he will meet the love of his life and experience for the first time what love is. He comes to the bitter realisation that young people of the present have been corrupted and relationships and marriage are more and more losing their value.
Despairing, in later years he drops down into the party and drugs scene. In his darkest moment, full of depression and anguish, he happens to meet Aaliyah, a young Muslim woman who wears a headscarf.
This encounter is to change his life completely. But Aaliyah bears a terrible secret Though technically Africa is Historical Fiction, it is a story written with the hope that it become just that'a myth,a fairy-tale'for my people. It is my wish, however, that this book reaches much deeper, and much more broadly, to people of any background or ethnicity.
I hope that all who read this book will finish it seeing things a little differently than when they began it. To my people'to the land of my forefathers'this book is a gift that I give, inall humility, to them. Aaliyah, I hope, will become there Cinderella, there Beautyand the Beast, there Pocahontas giving them inssight into their past. I wrote it to reveal that they are more than Africans, Slaves, or victims.
I wrote it to show all the beauty, and wonder, of the Black Person'who is ultimately Evanescent, Ethe-real That is, if they win the team talent competition. Now, the fourth book in the series follows Aaliyah, as she comes face to face with a secret from her past.. It takes a bit of persuading to get Aaliyah to be a part of the Divas, but she gives in, and joins the group to be close to her friends.
During one of their rehearsals, the girls hear a song by Zena, a successful African American singer. All the other girls are inspired and imagine themselves being as successful one day—except for Aaliyah, who turns off the CD and grumbles that they can find a better role model. Then, when Aaliyah learns that Zena will be attending their performance—accompanied by her father—her whole world comes crashing down. In it, Anastasia provides excellent insight into her journey with breast cancer.
She provides helpful hints on how to thrive through the journey, leaning entirely on her faith and her family. Anastasia details the ups and downs through being diagnosed at age thirty-four, a wife and mom to three little ones. Anastasia holds nothing back as she dives into motherhood, friendship, and marriage. With the God-given strength she was given, she shares all of the changes and challenges the cancer journey brings.
I didn't choose cancer. It chose me, but I did decide what I would do with it. I would lend my voice to the situation. I would encourage, empower, and give hope. I would shine in times of darkness, and I would get up after every fall.
