Obama Guilty of Being President While Black examines how the shadows of oppressive Jim Crow laws played a role in the hate spewed towards the 44th President of the United States. The role of race and gender was front and center during the presidential campaign. How a woman was used as a human shield by the Republicans is also clearly illustrated. Barack Obama received a mandate in the general election. A few months later, it was a curious sight to witness people gathered around town hall meeting sites bearing signs depicting the President as Hitler, socialist or a tyrant. Some even carried guns and a pastor prayed that Obama would die. A Republican Congressman even called President Obama a liar on national television during his health-care speech to a joint session of CongressThere was something much deeper at play with President Obama and it centered on his race. Find out how questions about the President's birth, religion, economic policies and patriotism were all smoke screens for feelings as old as the United States itself.

The United States experienced the emergence of an economic crisis in the last quarter of 2008 that was the worst since the Great Depression. It quickly became evident that the cause of this financial meltdown was a perfect storm of multiple factors including irresponsibility, greed and lax oversight. Some hardworking citizens found themselves living in foreclosure riddled neighborhoods and tent cities that the author has labeled - TARP Towns - after the Troubled Assets Relief Program approved by Congress in October of 2008. ESSENCE® bestselling author D T Pollard expresses a unique view on the economic crisis that exploded onto the scene in 2008 and describes how that financial downturn may save the United States of America from itself.

“Has anyone seen my grandmother Martha Devareaux?” she inquired and all that met her was a blank stare and a shake of the head for no.
Deep down inside her mind, she knew that her grandmother was floating in the water that swamped their house. It came in so quickly. By the time Monique realized what was happening it was up to her neck. She called for her grandmother, but at eighty years old and wheelchair bound, there was little chance that she survived. Not only was she homeless and destitute, she was also alone.
Could Monique rebuild her life in a new city while encountering wealth, love, violence and betrayal along a twenty year journey after Hurricane Katrina?

Hockey coach, Star’s wife in alleged gambling ring. N.Y. producer accused of sexually harassing cast. The story of John, frustrated business professional, and a group of beautiful women married to wealthy older men could be ripped from the current-day scandal headlines the privileged class practice right under the noses of their unsuspecting spouses.
In the country club set of Dallas, Texas, these “Trophy Wives” decide to carve out their individual empowerment, in spite of prenuptial agreements, as a means of future independence. Unforeseen circumstances take them on detours that lead to debauchery, death, and mental meltdown while their neglectful, busy husbands are clueless about their activities. The route they choose to gain personal enrichment exploits the weaknesses and greed of others. From Dallas, Las Vegas, to the piney woods of East Texas and gulf coast, The Trophy Wife Network puts a new spin on the meaning of timesharing and network sales.
