The true story behind the film starring Academy Award winner Forest Whitaker and Garrett Hedlund; written and directed by Andrew Heckler; produced by Academy Award nominee Robbie Brenner (Dallas Buyers Club)A powerful, timely story about an African American reverend whose faith compelled him to help a KKK member leave a life of hate “Honest, empowering, incredibly enjoyable, and unforgettable.”—Bret Witter, bestselling co-author of The Monuments Men, Dewey, and StrongerIn 1996, the town of Laurens, South Carolina, was thrust into the spotlight when a white supremacist named Michael Burden opened a museum celebrating the Ku Klux Klan in the community’s main square. Journalists and protestors flooded the town, and hate groups rallied to the establishment’s defense, dredging up the long history of racism and injustice. What came next is the subject of the film Burden, which won the 2018 Sundance Film Festival Audience Award. Shortly after his museum opened, Burden abruptly left the Klan in search of a better life. Broke and homeless, he was taken in by Reverend David Kennedy, an African American leader in the Laurens community, who plunged his church, friends, and family into an inspiring quest to save their former enemy. In this spellbinding Southern epic, journalist Courtney Hargrave further uncovers the complex events behind the story told in Andrew Heckler’s film. Hargrave explores the choices that led to Kennedy and Burden’s friendship, the social factors that drive young men to join hate groups, and the difference one person can make in confronting America’s oldest sin.

Since 1795, when Peter Whitaker built the first known settlement on what is now Linefork Creek, Letcher Countians have demonstrated the perseverance and fortitude for which Appalachian people are known. The majesty of Pine Mountain in the south of the county or the rare beauty of old-growth forests that became Lilley Cornett Woods must have brought Daniel Boone to seek a paradise in “Kanta-ke.” Whitesburg and Letcher County have seen their resources of timber, oil, and coal bring growth, as well as decline. With the rise of the coal industry before World War I came a steady flow of Eastern European immigrants who contributed a new and exciting perspective on life, business, and art. It was Italian stonemason John Palumbo Sr. who led other Italians to Whitesburg because the beauty of it reminded him of his home in the Campania region of Southern Italy. The churches, homes, and buildings they established stand in homage to their energy and skill.

Previously published as Stories of Your Life and Others. Includes "Story Of Your Life," the basis for the major motion picture Arrival, starring Amy Adams, Forest Whitaker, Jeremy Renner, and directed by Denis Villeneuve.“A swell movie adaptation always sends me to the source material, so Arrival had me pick up Ted Chiang's Stories of Your Life and Others: lean, relentless, and incandescent.” —Colson Whitehead, GQTed Chiang has long been known as one of the most powerful science fiction writers working today. Offering readers the dual delights of the very strange and the heartbreakingly familiar, Arrival presents characters who must confront sudden change. In "Story of Your Life," which provides the basis for the film Arrival, alien lifeforms suddenly appear on Earth. When a linguist is brought in to help communicate with them and discern their intentions, her new knowledge of their language and its nonlinear structure allows her to see future events and all the joy and pain they may bring. In each story of this incredible collection, with sharp intelligence and humor, Ted Chiang examines what it means to be alive in a world marked by uncertainty, but also by wonder.

Idi Amin ruled the East African country of Uganda from January 1971 to April 1979 when he was ousted from power by a combined force of the Tanzania Peoples' Defence Force and Ugandan exiles operating through Tanzania. He left a controversial and conflicted legacy, as depicted by Oscar-winning film star Forest Whitaker in the hit movie "The Last King of Scotland"; but have authors and filmmakers who have attempted to tell his story to date really told the whole truth? Have they delved deep enough to uncover everything there is to know about Idi Amin, everything there is to tell about him and what actually happened during his rule and after he was forced to live in exile, first in Libya and then in Saudi Arabia? "No" says his son Jaffar Amin and other people! Was Idi Amin "Framed" or "Guilty as Charged"? Was something "insidious" going on during his rule in Uganda as alleged by many? What role did racism, colonialism, neocolonialism, classism, religion, tribalism and greed play in "creating" Idi Amin? In this unprecedented series devoted to telling Idi Amin's story in its entirety and not just "selected" parts, Margaret Akulia engages his son Jaffar Amin and other people in candid "conversation" about his legacy. As the world continues to pronounce "A Guilty Verdict" on Idi Amin after "finding him guilty beyond reasonable doubt", many people are adamant in asserting that "others" and not Idi Amin committed the "mass murders" attributed to him in Uganda which begs the question: Was Idi Amin a Hero or a Villain? This is a series devoted to uncovering Idi Amin's story in its entirety, layer by layer, telling all the truth and shedding light on the untruths! Compiled and co-written by Jaffar Amin and Margaret Akulia.
