Betrayal in the City
Author: F. D. Imbuga
Publisher: East African Publishers
ISBN: 9789966463609
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 84
Book Description
Betrayal in the City, first published in 1976 and 1977, was Kenya's national entry to the Second World Black and African Festival of Arts and Culture in Lagos, Nigeria. The play is an incisive, thought-provoking examination of the problems of independence and freedom in post-colonial African states, where a sizeable number of people feel that their future is either blank or bleak. In the words of Mosese, one of the characters: "It was better while we waited. Now we have nothing to look forward to. We have killed our past and are busy killing our future."--Page 4 of cover

ISBN: 9781092143035
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
Among the most widely accepted claims in American political discourse today is the notion that the Democratic Party is the party that stands up for the so-called "common man"; that it advocates for public policies that will improve the lives of the poorest and most powerless among us. But in city after city where Democrats have been in political control for any extended period of time, we find colossal levels of poverty and crime eroding the people's quality of life. And the longer those Democrats have been in charge, the worse the conditions tend to be. In short, Democrats have transformed a host of once-great metropolises into urban prisons where the common man has been grievously harmed by one destructive Democratic policy after another. Moreover, the failure of Democratic leaders in American cities has been mirrored by similar failures on the state level. It is time for serious-minded individuals who may have long supported the Democratic Party for reasons they deemed worthy, to recognize that their party has betrayed them so consistently and so monstrously, that they now have a moral imperative to walk away from it.

The Hidden History of the Supreme Court and the Betrayal of America
Author: Thom Hartmann
Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers
ISBN: 1523085967
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Thom Hartmann, the most popular progressive radio host in America and a New York Times bestselling author, explains how the Supreme Court has spilled beyond its Constitutional powers and how we the people should take that power back. Taking his typically in-depth, historically informed view, Thom Hartmann asks, What if the Supreme Court didn't have the power to strike down laws? According to the Constitution, it doesn't. From the founding of the republic until 1803, the Supreme Court was the final court of appeals, as it was always meant to be. So where did the concept of judicial review start? As so much of modern American history, it began with the battle between the Federalists and Anti-Federalists, and with Marbury v. Madison. Hartmann argues it is not the role of the Supreme Court to decide what the law is but rather the duty of the people themselves. He lays out the history of the Supreme Court of the United States, since Alexander Hamilton's defense to modern-day debates, with key examples of cases where the Supreme Court overstepped its constitutional powers. The ultimate remedy to the Supreme Court's abuse of power is with the people--the ultimate arbiter of the law--using the ballot box. America does not belong to the kings and queens; it belongs to the people.
