		<description><![CDATA[This Website will be devoted to essays and insights related to diversity, addiction/recovery, psychological growth issues, global perspectives, the disenfranchised,  aesthetics, and cultural values. The core value streaming throughout the essays I write will be about returning to our innocence, which sometimes requires a trauma, a jolt, an invasion of the “other,” or a paradigm [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In his recent controversial Munich Multiculturalism speech, UK Prime Minister, David Cameron, called for a “muscular liberalism” in the face of what he refers to as state-supported multiculturalism. According to the Prime Minister, multiculturalism, as it exists in what he considers to be its segregated form, is the disease; complete assimilation, of course, is the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I retired from college teaching many years ago, I had become radicalized by my experiences with teaching International film and culture and African-American Literature. Both courses led me to my belief that “story” is an essential ingredient in teaching students how to understand another culture. Once a student can identify with a person in [...]]]></description>

Three issues, however, seem to stick in the craw of those who believe in their heart of hearts that America is on the road to self-destruction: (1) The continuing loss of freedom because of big government and what [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is difficult to write a review of a novel that has significant events that cannot be revealed without destroying the tension of those events. In the same vein, Internet film reviews often caution their readers that the review contains spoiler information that gives away key plot information. If you&#8217;re writing a review of a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Insanity as a literary theme has always had an audience—those ardent peeping-Toms who love to wallow around in somebody else&#8217;s mania. And there is something about the draw of a house fire or a mangled car on the Interstate that seeps into our indifference with the power of a jackhammer. Add a paranoid schizophrenic, some [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a recent Harper&#8217;s Magazine essay, &#8220;Go Forth and Falsify,&#8221; William Gass made the comment that a &#8220;storyteller&#8217;s assignment&#8230;was to glorify the past and its daring, protect the family tree, justify male ownership of land&#8230;&#8221; among other obligations. It appeared at first glance that Gass had no aesthetic sympathy with the classic role of the [...]]]></description>
