At eight years old in 1968 Magnus Duruji saw the evil of Communism and Islamic fundamentalism through the ravages of a civil war, his mother dragging him and his four little siblings into an underground bomb bunker behind his house, built by his father with the help of his brother and a male refugee. Then in 1970 at age eleven Magnus , his parents and his seven siblings survived the civil war after barrage of roaring and thundering brutal bombardment in my little farming country hometown from then Soviet Union, now Russia, and from the Arab Islamic fighter pilots in Russian MIGS and British Harrier Jets on behalf of then divided national Nigerian government , but, only to make it into the United States for freedom to be thrown into Prison on a disguised U.S. Department of Justice Immigration illegal imposition when applicable laws weren't retroactive in non criminal dynamic events relevant to Magnus Duruji. Unconstitutionally imprisoned by the U&.S. department Of Justice Immigration ICE, and consequently shuffled from one prison to another in his quest to become a United States citizen, Magnus fasted and cumulatively cried out to God for Divine intervention. Magnus exchanged a solemn oath of promise with God if He will intervene and make His presence practically clear that He God exists. Well, the rest of the fight for for freedom to become an American Citizen was Divinely written. This is the story about my childhood journey for Freedom from age eight to now 52, tipping in the United States of America. " In America you fight, you don't give up" Magnus Duruji, quoted in the Columbus Dispatch February 23, 2012; Associated Press February 24,2012The Audacity of Courage challenges our conscience in relation to our belief in a free democratic system by taking us back to examine our relationship with the Purest form of Goodness: God. Through perseverance , a new level of humility was attained but not without audacious spiritually directed content of missteps and emergentic guidelines that may lead freedom. But, for this quest of freedom to be romantically fulfilled, the emergentic driving energy will challenge the very pristine document that currently holds the conscience of mankind to order: The Constitution of the United States. The issues that emerge in an effort to derail the mother of life known as "freedom" as enshrined in the U.S. constitution will also escalate through invisible rowdy noise of energy calling for the release of an innocent man through pious legal frame work. Interestingly, the journey of freedom for American citizen Magnus Duruji only serves as an instrument or tool if you will to showcase the the character of the American mind. "What is the mind mind"? The American mind is the in-dominate spirit of the American people to sacrifice their blood, their reputation, their wealth and their character for the good of all. This spirit of true will of character representative for all Americans in the people of the Great State Of Ohio ( my adopted home State) is what makes America " The Land and Home of the freest people in the world. Ohio fought for me and my family free of color and accent. They only had interest in the preservation of the Great Constitution of the United States of America. Well, the audacity of courage is a politically incorrect book of the 21st century. it calls out the blights of arrogance in the current politically correct world we live. The American mind endures the truth it hurts in the politically correct society we live in. Thus, the Audacity of Courage highlights the story of a man who by his fathers mythological bedtime stories aspired for the United States of America. Having obtained permissible work student Visa directly from then U.S. Ambassador to Nigeria Thomas Pickering Jr. Magnus Duruji arrived in the United States in 1981. "Will Magnus Duruji be welcomed by ICE" To say the least, his welcome will only become unfolding unconstitutional events in profiling.

From the star of the hit Netflix series The Duchess comes a brilliantly funny, fiercely honest, and dangerously astute handbook of life instruction. "I’ve come to accept that being audacious is a gift I can’t escape." People "know" my on-stage comedy persona or my scripted ballsy characters and wrongly assume that I must stomp around all day in designer dresses eviscerating those who dare to cross my path. But mostly, I’m just sat eating pickles and being nice to some dogs. Whatever strangers think of me is fine with me. How audacious is that? I can always take a joke, I don’t waste time worrying about things I can’t control. I embrace the reality that you just can’t please everyone, so you might as well put yourself out there and have a laugh. As my mother always said, "Katherine, if we all liked the same thing, we’d all be married to your father." I’m often asked how I developed my lurid level of courage and assurance and for tips on how others can match. The Audacity is my chance to share my blueprint for just that. You will learn: • How To Be the Most Popular Girl in School • How to Waste All Your Money on Designer Dogs • How To Attract Toxic Men… AND Keep Them Interested! And so much more… Secrets are my favourite things to be told and I figured I’d better tell a few juicy ones myself, too. Why not? No matter what I do, there will always be something about me that reads as simply, outrageously audacious.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Barack Obama’s lucid vision of America’s place in the world and call for a new kind of politics that builds upon our shared understandings as Americans, based on his years in the Senate “In our lowdown, dispiriting era, Obama’s talent for proposing humane, sensible solutions with uplifting, elegant prose does fill one with hope.”—Michael Kazin, The Washington Post In July 2004, four years before his presidency, Barack Obama electrified the Democratic National Convention with an address that spoke to Americans across the political spectrum. One phrase in particular anchored itself in listeners’ minds, a reminder that for all the discord and struggle to be found in our history as a nation, we have always been guided by a dogged optimism in the future, or what Obama called “the audacity of hope.” The Audacity of Hope is Barack Obama’s call for a different brand of politics—a politics for those weary of bitter partisanship and alienated by the “endless clash of armies” we see in congress and on the campaign trail; a politics rooted in the faith, inclusiveness, and nobility of spirit at the heart of “our improbable experiment in democracy.” He explores those forces—from the fear of losing to the perpetual need to raise money to the power of the media—that can stifle even the best-intentioned politician. He also writes, with surprising intimacy and self-deprecating humor, about settling in as a senator, seeking to balance the demands of public service and family life, and his own deepening religious commitment. At the heart of this book is Barack Obama’s vision of how we can move beyond our divisions to tackle concrete problems. He examines the growing economic insecurity of American families, the racial and religious tensions within the body politic, and the transnational threats—from terrorism to pandemic—that gather beyond our shores. And he grapples with the role that faith plays in a democracy—where it is vital and where it must never intrude. Underlying his stories is a vigorous search for connection: the foundation for a radically hopeful political consensus. Only by returning to the principles that gave birth to our Constitution, Obama says, can Americans repair a political process that is broken, and restore to working order a government that has fallen dangerously out of touch with millions of ordinary Americans. Those Americans are out there, he writes—“waiting for Republicans and Democrats to catch up with them.”
