In my stories, we encounter the sorrows that often go unspoken. The stories pull back the curtain on the realities faced by women and girls in rural areas, where access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities can be limited. They shed light on the unequal burdens women bear and the strength it takes to carry them. But within the pages of these tales, there is also hope. The book is not just about despair; it is about resilience. It showcases the wisdom passed down from mothers to daughters, the rituals that bind communities, and the courage to challenge the status quo.

This is the story of a dynasty founded by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, a Max Weberian Charismatic leader but unfortunately not a statesman who established a one-party rule, which led to a rebellion and his predictable death. Mujib died of his self-inflicted wound called BAKSAL Dictatorship. Mujib is not frozen in time; his daughter, Sheikh Hasina (the "digital dictator"), and her Awami cadres (followers) continue Mujib's brutal BAKSAL tradition. On the parliament floor, Mujib boasted about his government's extrajudicial killing and exclaimed, "Sheraj Shikder, where are you now?" These and other remarks by Mujib show his problems with self-discipline. Pinaki Bhattacharya, a researcher on Bangladesh politics, says, "Mujib was a great trickster."

Dive in to where a couple meet a crossroads of a modern world. Overcoming troubles that some face on a regular day to day basis. With just a little help they rewrite there life. The grammar I used is written this way on purpose. There are a couple, few run on sentences, maybe a fragment or two as well. Also there is one or two paragraph breaks. I used guidelines from an ancient idea, it is no secret. I brought the story up to the present. Added some extra time, if one can only count or follow a map. Using any current or modern grammar format would not have done it any justice. The Idea has been butchered enough.

In Still to Fight On, Dr. Quentin White proposes a ministry model for African American veterans in VA hospitals. Inspired by his service in the military, veteran's hospital, and the African Methodist Episcopal Church, Dr. White offers a unique perspective on how to serve these veterans and by extension, all veterans in hospitals and religious settings. Using autobiographical, theological, biblical, historical, and practical resources, Dr. White suggests ways to break through the alienation, woundedness, suspicion, and mistrust of Black veterans toward the system, to deeper relationships with self, others and God. Still to Fight On is one veteran's way of helping chaplains, counselors, ministers, veterans' advocates, clinicians, and caregivers of Black veterans gain new insights on their work with Black veterans. In addition to veterans themselves, anyone who has a passion for the survival and wholeness of those who have worn their country's uniform and, in some cases, carry the scars of battle, should welcome this resource.
