Jamerican: The Gift of Poverty is the inspirational true-life story of Sherwin P. Brown, a poor Jamaican boy who grew up barefoot in the jungle to become a top stockbroker in America. Brown's life is an improbable true-life roller coaster of ups and downs-often humorous, sometimes sad-that cannot be put down. Inspired by his mother's intellect and his father's never-say-die work ethic, Brown's journey is an inspiration to Jamaicans, Americans . . . to anybody who seeks success. Not only did Mr. Brown's journey start in poverty, it also started in a third-world country. Unlike many other successful immigrants to America, Brown's success came from sheer hard work-no special tax breaks or other governmental favors. His life is a blueprint for happiness. Jamerican will entertain, inspire, and make you laugh and think. Mr. Brown tells a story that takes place over decades, and he does so in a very easy-to-read and breezy style that's a pure joy to read! Once you start reading, you cannot put this story down.

THE JAMERICAN, by J.J. Gumbs, is a novel about an American Christian living in a Jamaican subculture in NYC. The Jamerican reveals how faith and culture, though we want them sometimes to be mutually exclusive, are really mixed into one thing that forms the principle ingredient of some people's lives. The protagonist, Theresa Brown, was quite happy with her life. She was out of a disastrous marriage, was about to celebrate five years in the magazine publishing business, and was enjoying a closer relationship with her Creator. The last thing on her mind was meeting and falling in love with Anthony Gordon. A turn of events, in which she almost lost a dear friend to a car accident, brought her face to face with Anthony's true self, or did it?

Corey Young is a Jamerican: born on the island of Jamaica and migrated to and living in America while juggling parts of both cultures. Faced with the challenges of a new home, a new world with different cultures and a new system, Corey Young was still confident he could be all that he wanted to be, it was instilled in him at a very young age, it was forged in the very core of his being. But the streets of Brooklyn were mean, the gangs of Brooklyn were meaner, and it wasn't long before he became a product of that environment. Corey fought, stole, and sold drugs at times, succumbing to the pressures of his environment and his peers. Years past, and so did many of the virtues instilled in Corey as a boy, the streets of Brooklyn changed and manipulated his state of mind in the name of survival. Then he met and fell madly in love with a beautiful girl who changed his outlook on life, and ever since then he was always trying to live right. Inspired by love and his mentor Robert Smith, Corey became determined to beat the odds, and rise above his condition, but there always seemed to be forces looming in the shadows waiting to sabotage is life. It was a daily struggle, and he fought very hard, but circumstances and environment, along with his gruesome past, kept pulling him back down into the mire of the gutter that he had unintentionally dug over the years, a past that followed him like a shadow and threatened his life daily. Regardless of his physical strength and mental fortitude, Corey quickly learned that if you walk in darkness you will stumble, and sometimes fall; and the forces of darkness always have malign intentions. His exemplary skills in martial arts gave him confidence , but he quickly learned that was not good enough to withstand or defeat his true enemies. They were not natural, and a reprogramming of his mind had to take place, and the fight would have to be on a different battlefield. Corey struggled to maintain his nobility; as do all men, he has a weakness and a past, and so his relationship with the love of his life suffered; and often times the pressures seemed unbearable. "Too Young To Die" is a phrase Corey used to remind and inspire him to survive from day to day. He is well aware of the high mortality rate of the young men in his community, and that there are extreme challenges because of gang activities and illegal drugs. But as he battled and coped with that reality he painfully learned that there is a much more formidable foe in the background, behind the scenes, and with much higher stakes than his life; one that requires our soul. Through his experiences, thirst for knowledge, and quest for vengeance, Corey became enlightened, and now he's ready to confront the devil himself. Take the ride with Corey as he dabbled with lust, love, good, and evil; and then ran back to Jamaica for solace before returning to America to face the ultimate evil.

This epic story tells the life of a girl/woman living half of her life in Jamaica and the other half in the United States off and on during her young life up until the current. The story tells tales of her molestation bought on by her father, as well as the stripper life, hard times, marriage, abortion...and the list goes on. Her vision of the past is blurry, and therefore brings on unedited short stories in each chapter going back and forth from present to past and in-between to whatever is remembered at the moment in time of writing the book, causing confusion which represents the true turmoil she has been feeling throughout her life.

Tilling Sacred Grounds examines Black women’s interiority and negotiation of race, gender, and sexuality in religious spaces and religious practices. Phillis Isabella Sheppard argues for the importance of the exchange between interiority and public spaces, and examines religion in cyberspace, art, ritual, and street ministry. She refigures the location of religious experience by retrieving Black women’s interiority as religious space. Often excluded from Black religious studies, interiority is necessary for understanding Black women’s complex and even unconscious relationship with religion. The book weaves a thread by stressing that interiority has subjective, intersubjective, conscious, unconscious, and relational dimensions formed in historical, and social contexts.
