Former Buffalo Soldier, Willie Moses Sandwinder, hopes the uncharted territory will provide him a personal homestead. Somewhere in the heart of the beautiful yet treacherous wilderness, Willie stumbles upon BJ, a man who has been mauled by a bear, ans loosley clinging to life. Their encounter sets Willie on a path to fight to the death for his Cherokee wife, Aponi, start a family, and establish a thriving moonshine business.

Book Synopsis Emmett Till and the Mississippi Press by : Davis W. Houck

Download or read book Emmett Till and the Mississippi Press written by Davis W. Houck. This book was released on 2009-09-18. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employing never-before-used historical materials, the authors of Emmett Till and the Mississippi Press reveal how Mississippi journalists both expressed and shaped public opinion in the aftermath of the 1955 Emmett Till murder. Combing small-circulation weeklies as well as large-circulation dailies, Davis W. Houck and Matthew A. Grindy analyze the rhetoric at work as the state attempted to grapple with a brutal, small-town slaying. Initially, coverage tended to be sympathetic to Till, but when the case became a clarion call for civil rights and racial justice in Mississippi, journalists reacted. Newspapers both reported on the Till investigation and editorialized on its protagonists. Within days the Till case transcended the specifics of a murder in the Delta. Coverage wrestled with such complex cultural matters as the role of the press, class, gender, and geography in the determination of guilt and innocence. Emmett Till and the Mississippi Press provides a careful examination of the courtroom testimony given in Sumner, Mississippi, and the trial's conclusion as reported by the state's newspapers. The book closes with an analysis of how Mississippi has attempted to come to terms with its racially troubled past by, in part, memorializing Emmett Till in and around the Delta.
