Paperback. Condición: Very Good. On a winter's day in 1968, in a town in South Africa, a nineteen-year-old medical student changed the course of his country's history. Steve Biko's philosophy of Black Consciousness would inspire thousands of black students to demand an equal education. In this wide-ranging history and analysis, Manju Soni melds her own personal history with the growth of the youth movement against apartheid. She chronicles that movement's evolution from the sporadic protests of the Soweto Uprising, to the emergence of a national youth movement with over a million members. Delving deep into the archives of South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission, she profiles in chilling detail the individuals in the apartheid government who made assassination a key tool of state policy. This story captures the power and desire of young black South Africans to become the agents of change. It is essential reading for readers of all ages, regardless of race.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. The Quantum Being is for anyone looking for inspiration, direction, and comprehension to jump-start their life to move forward, embrace freedom and create their magickal life.By reading this book, you will embark on a journey to get you in touch with your superpower within.I had an awareness growing up about myself and my surrounding. This awareness led me to ask questions. Answers came in the form of people, experiences, tests, and sometimes trial and error. Living my life for half a century in this quantum body has gifted me with the wisdom to navigate life and its universal laws. Hence this book is the catharsis of my soul.The rhythm of my life started at a faster pace when I came to the United States (US) in 1992 at an early age, soon after an arranged marriage. I was born and raised as an orthodox Muslim in Karachi, Pakistan. Upon my arrival in Los Angeles, CA, I couldn't speak English, nor did I have any financial means. Being new to a country like the United States felt like being on a new planet to me, and complicated by the fact that I accompanied a man I barely knew.Life took a path that has been full of hard lessons, emotionally challenging experiences, roadblocks, and cultural and language barriers.How did I come this far despite my conservative upbringing?How did I break through all the cultural, social, and religious barriers?How did I stay strong through the storms and come all this way far enough to touch the star? To live in a world where science fiction is becoming a reality.How did I navigate my life to draw happiness and independence?This book shares wisdom via storytelling to help you come out of trenches no matter how deep the hole is.This book bridges science and spirituality and helps you see the truth for yourself by showing you the magnificent interconnectedness we have all around us and within us guiding our pathway to our true self, home, and final destiny.…
