The Powerful, The Powerless
This story is set in a fictitious country where deceitful, Machiavellian politicians, who commit heinous crimes without batting an eyelid, pretend to be the guardians of the country, making a farce of democracy.
Bharat, the protagonist of the novel, is a humble young man from a lowly background who has big dreams. But his dreams go awry when his path in life crosses that of some such powerful and unscrupulous politicians. Does he have any chance to fight and triumph over them?
Young Bharat finds his life living in a small, far-flung town, in a community that fiercely holds on to all regressive ideas and beliefs, so far removed from what he imagines for himself.
Bharat dreams big, and when a crisis in his life threatens his dream he flees to a big city, hoping that he could lean on some arm of the government and the country and realize his dream one day.
But what his life in the big city – through his adolescence to adulthood – teaches him is shockingly different from what he had imagined and hoped for.
He finds the very guardians of the country turn his nemeses, and throw hurdles his way, at various points in his life.
Then he faces the biggest hurdle of his life, Kansakumar, the Chief Minister of the state, who wrongs the love of his life and makes his whole world turn topsy-turvy. Can he take on this challenge?
CHRISTIAN ORTHODOX POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY, A THEOLOGICAL APPROACH IN PROPOSALS OF POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY
This book attempts to construct a political philosophy based on Christian Orthodox Theology. This philosophy cannot be based on ideology because in Orthodoxy truth is, and emanates from, the person-in-communion. Truth is not an idea but a Person, and this Person is Christ. A person derives existence, not from his own self, but from his relationship and communion with God and neighbor. As a disciple of Christ, the person gives and sacrifices himself, and in so doing, he does not lose himself but finds his true self. Hence a Christian Orthodox political philosophy must not be an “idea-ology” but a “Person-ology.” It should strive to provide guidance to the person in society and, at the same time, to be guided by the person in society, to be subject to, and be immersed in, the communion of persons and, in so doing, attain truth and authenticity.
I PASS AS WHITE
I was wondering if you could promote a book that I have just had published. Our dad wrote the book in the fifties and it was found after he passed away. Due to the unrest times, I feel this would be a great book to promote.
The name of the book is “I PASS AS WHITE” by William “Tex” Pointer. My dad was African American. Back then, he was what was known as a “white skinned Negro”. The book portrays his life, segregation and many statistics from the times. Through his life, at one point, he decided that he just wanted the opportunities that others had. He decided to pass as white. But, he vowed to strike a match for the Negro at every opportunity that he could. He never gave up on his race. He met my mom on leave from the Navy in Boston, married, moved to the suburbs, had children and went on to pass as white throughout his life. Below is the back cover for a quick overview.
This book was written in the 1950’s by our dad. The manuscript was found after he passed away. This is his story of what hate, ignorance, poverty and racism can do to a nation. What if you could change the direction of your life? Would you have the strength to make the sacrifices to get there? Bill Pointer had that strength. In these pages, you will see the price he paid for security and happiness. His life started out like most people. There was mom, dad, friends, school, several jobs, and the ambition to get ahead. But that is where the similarity ends. Bill’s journey through life was full of pain and mis
