Book Description
SAVE ME A PLACE AT FOREST LAWN is a small but perceptive slice of the lives of two old women, Clara and Gertrude, as they lunch at a cafeteria and face the uncertain interval of life still remaining. Tired, lonely, and weary of it all, they meet daily to discuss their grandchildren, to recall their early life, and to contemplate death, which lurks outside the cafeteria. Yet theirs is a resignation touched with wisdom and humor. When one of the ladies reveals that she had an affair with the other's husband many years before, her friend concedes very casually that she had known about it all along. At the time she had concluded that no great harm would come of it and, besides, it seemed better to protect the friendship which might, in later years, relieve their final, mutual loneliness. -- Dramatists Play Service.

AMERICAN SYSTEMS, CHURCH, EDUCATION, FAMILIES, GOVERNMENT, HOMES, NEIGHBORS, WORK This book focuses on a personal story of the multitude of struggles, survival and thriving techniques a three generational set of families met and overcame during a 100 year period. Two decades ago, someone wrote asking this question 'IS GOD DEAD?" If you could question thousand of black citizens the answer would be 'No God is alive. Without Him I would be dead.' Today a major struggle is 'What is wrong with the teachers'? Without the teachers in our lives many of us would be far worse off than it appears. Is your family falling apart today? The family still is the backbone unit especially when we have children in our society depending on the adults for guidance. Do you know your local city, county and state government officials? How do you interact with these representatives? Discover how you can do more than just vote. What are the characteristics of a good neighbor? What happen when work is not available? Imagine having faith, seeking community harmony, spreading love, offering hope, and maintaining joy, being patient, peaceful and exhibiting absolute self-control.

Book Description
After moving to an affluent suburb of Denver in 1975, ninth-grader Tiphanie, the only Black girl in her new high school, feels out of place until she befriends another outsider--Jackie Sue, whose "trailer trash" home life makes Tiphanie's problems seem like a walk in the park. In October 1975, while most teens are worried about their Happy Days Halloween costumes, Tiphanie Jayne Baker has bigger problems. Her parents have just decided to uproot the family to the ritzy suburb of Brent Hills, Colorado, and now she's the only Black girl at a high school full of Barbies. But the longer Tiphanie stays in her new neighborhood, the more her ties to her old community start to fray. Now that nowhere feels like home, exactly where does she belong?
