Release: 2009
Genre: African Americans
ISBN: 9780972973045

A critically acclaimed anthology of verse, Nigger For Life reflects the painful, later life discovery of Neal Hall, M.D., that in unspoken America, race is the one thing on which he is first judged, by which he is first measured, first against which his life and accomplishments are metered diminished value, dignity and equality. All of which have everything to do with accessing choice, opportunity, power and freedom in America. Nigger For Life reveals Dr. Hall's deep sense of betrayal combined with his fervent passion for life and equality for all. His words pierce through in candid, gut wrenching clarity. He bares his intelligence, wit and dreams.

Peer Gynt is classical drama written by Henrik Ibsen. This modern version is rewritten by Sadr al-Din Arabi. His aim is to criticize the decadent lifestyle in the West from an Islamic point of view. Peer Gynt is obsessed about being himself, but the way he sees himself is not reflective of who he truly is. The well-known scene with the onion depicts this quite clearly. There is no core inside an onion, just as there is no core in a false self. Peer Gynt’s journey is a psychological struggle to discover his true self, his core. A core based on empathy, morality and religious meaning. In this rewritten version is Solveig, a symbol of spiritually, the pure and innocent. She is helping Peer Gynt to be reborn into a spiritual life. - There will be a new enlightenment!
