As a Rideshare Driver, waiting for somebody to show on the App, I had plenty of time to meditate about important subjects that has been difficult to solve since the beginnings of Humanity, like for example: Who was first?, The Egg or the Hen?. After years of discussion, research and study, I’ve came to the conclusion that nobody knows and nobody will, determine WHO IS IMMIGRANT OR NATIONAL, since the Evolution Theory comes with the cell growing and evolving from it through Earlier Apes (Nakalipithecus), Ouranophitecus (Gorilla Split) , Sahelanthropus (Possibly Bipedal), Orrorin (Chimpanzee Split), in the Hominini Stage Miocene Age, then the Homo Habilis Stage of the Pliocene Age including the Ardipithecus & Australophitecus (Earliest Bipedal and use of Stone Tools), and the Pleistocene Age starting with the Homo Erectus (Exit from Africa and Earliest fire use), following the Homo Heidelbergensis (Earliest Clothes and Cooking), the Neanderthals and the Homo sapiens which characterize as Modern Humans/Speech, as published on Wikipedia; some religions still believe that there is a God who created a Man, then took out his rib and made a Woman, in some place (With unknown coordinates) named Eden, then the Woman ate an apple a snake gave her and then they both were kicked out from that place and sent somewhere else, even if I believe this theory, who can answer me who is the IMMIGRANT, if they then began to populate our Planet with their descendants?. These days, sales of tiki torches and white bedding sets skyrocketed thanks to Radical Nationalist nerves stimulated by Leaders and small groups around the US and other "developed" countries on East, West, North and South, setting the public stage to the spread of hate speech and crimes. But, is that bad to be here and speak other language, be fat - non white and ugly (like me)?, How does the US thrive with a population of 329,758,344 humans and around 350 languages spoken in its territory?

Politics has been made difficult to understand since its beginnings. In one hand because of the philosophical, social and academic approach of last centuries, and in the other hand because politicians and the interest groups they represent have no interest to make it comprehensible and easy to discuss and digest. Presented in simple language, social media like format, the author offers the IMDb of politics, with digestible concepts, pictures, likes and dislikes to guide you to see politics the way your human and citizen condition must see it, with responsibility, awareness and conviction that your vote is your voice but only when given to the cause that really shares your interests, as planet earth inhabitant or else. If you feel that the planet is in danger because of global warming, if you are pro-immigration, anti-war, pro-LGBTQ, pro-civil rights, if you are not NAZI-KuKuxKlan-Proud Boy, if you are carrying student debt, if you are a worker, if you are human, if you know that States charge taxes in order to distribute wealth, if you have ever heard about the Social Contract, you may be a Socialist, there is nothing wrong with it! Do not panic, you are not the Venezuelan Dictatorship nor they are Socialists. Just take a look inside to fact check it.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic started to gain space on the front page of the Mainstream Media and then prompted the “closure” of entire countries, following medieval ways to fight epidemics, as exposed by Donald G. McNeil Jr, on his article published by the New York Times in February 28, 2020 titled: “To Take on the Coronavirus, Go Medieval on It”, several phenomena caught my attention. Acting in my role as Gig Economy driver, delivering food in this small and nice town named Huntersville (57K Inhabitants and me: Legal Alien), in North Carolina, United States, was able, first hand to witness different approaches people and companies use to face this pandemic, like: · Use of face masks of any kind, everywhere, everyday=? · Compulsive hoarding of Toilet Paper=? · Installation of small plexiglass dividers or huge plastic curtains on customer service areas=? · The Olympic walking, as pictured by Trevor Noah, Host of the Daily Show, renamed because of the quarantine: “The Daily Social Distancing Show”, mocking people performing pirouettes to avoid being even near other human beings=? · People asking their FOOD to be delivered at the mat of their front doors=? · Closing Doors and forcing people to walk in/out through arbitrary design patterns in stores=? · Washing hands= OK These and other crazy behaviors published by news and people made me think: How was it in other Pandemics, on Part One will try to bring light on those past behaviors. On Part Two will browse facts and most amazing behaviors on this actual Pandemic and on Part Three will work on the question: Was this epidemic, with epicenter in Communist Governed China, convenient for other Governments around the globe?

Hispanics make up the largest and fastest-growing minority group in the United States. Organizations that don't know how to make them feel comfortable, recognized, and rewarded risk losing access to this important source of talent and innovation. Drawing on his own ethnic background and years of experience as director of the organization Hispanic Economics, Louis Nevaer identifies elements unique to the Hispanic worldview that often result in behaviors, beliefs, and expectations very different from, and sometimes seemingly at odds with, those of non-Hispanics. He also describes differences within the Hispanic community—such as between U.S.-born and immigrant Hispanics, and between people from different parts of the Hispanic world—that have a huge, and often unrecognized, impact on how workers interact with each other as well as with non-Hispanics. Through a wealth of examples, Nevaer shows how to develop Hispanic-friendly approaches to every aspect of the modern workplace, from recruitment, retention, and evaluation to training, mentoring, and labor relations.

This hands-on manual provides Latinas with the tools they need to succeed at work by examining some of the societal and cultural obstacles that hinder their progress. Despite being 20 million strong, Latinas represent America's most undervalued human resource. This career guide is the only one of its kind to focus specifically on empowering the working women of the Latina community to embrace success and build skills for workplace advancement. The Latina's Guide to Success in the Workplace explores the complexity of the Hispanic/Latino identity and the impact of this culture on professional mobility. The author asserts that there are five obstacles which Latinas confront within their own belief system: the idea that women do not need an education; the assumption that the needs of men come first; a belief that it is sinful to desire money; the opinion that Latinas should not be ambitious; and the mindset that successful women in the United States lose their femininity. Throughout the book, up-to-date research, case studies, and inspirational interviews offer strategies for overcoming the cultural factors that limit Latinas and providing a roadmap for achieving success.

When examining his own poetry Reinfred Dziedzorm Addo often finds he is merely a conduit for the words, the inspiration source itself being a force or another being. In acknowledging a poem’s inspiration source, he calls the resulting work a ‘dedicada’, meaning something written in dedication or in recognition of another. A debut full poetry collection, Washed Over expands upon Addo’s chapbook The Dedicadas and is a journey through a space filled with a breadth of forces and beings active in one’s existence. Identity, chaos, autumn colors, exile, people learning from the universe itself...these and other dedicadas make this collection an exploration of the experiences of someone washed over by life’s many inspirations.

What if the man next to you perfectly hummed a song that aired today for the first time, as if he'd heard it countless times? Robert Feldman is a young man caught up in a merry-go-round of unusual events that begin with the solar eclipse of April 2024. Taken away from his wife and daughter and thrown into the ripples of time, he is forced to live alternative lives. Facing the ethical and emotional baggage generated by the incredible phenomenon, the protagonist is subjected to the "Groundhog Day" syndrome, but in a different way. He travels back in 2017 several times throughout the book, but it’s never quite the same, as the threads of time are tangled by other time travelers. While Robert is given the choice of different fates in the alternate realities, he crosses the temporal threshold only when he matures enough to accept his destiny, no matter what. At the end of this fast-paced novel, filled with provocative ideas, well-defined characters, and offbeat dialogue hovers the question ’What do we sacrifice to find happiness?’
