- The handbook of Yoruba religious concepts / by Karade, Baba Ifa,author;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 131-132) and index. "Most of the Africans who were enslaved and brought to the Americas were from the Yoruba nation of West Africa, an ancient and vast civilization. In the diaspora caused by the slave trade, the guiding concepts of the Yoruba spiritual tradition took root in Haiti, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Brazil, and the United States. In this introduction to the practice, the author provides an overview of the Yoruba tradition and its influence in the West. He describes the 16 Orisha, or spirit gods, and shows us how to work with divination, how to use the energy centers of the body to internalize the teachings of Yoruba, and describes how to create a sacred place of worship"--- Subjects: Yoruba (African people)|xReligion.;

Includes bibliographical references and index.The mesmerist -- Visiting the poet in prison -- Hatred and fear -- Victims -- Petnjica -- Visiting the poet's family -- The poet becomes a politician -- Martyrs -- The hunt -- Houdini -- Moral hazard -- Fear -- The return of nationalism -- The problem of evil."Between October 2014 and November 2016, global terrorism expert Jessica Stern held a series of conversations in a prison cell in The Hague with Radovan Karadžić, a Bosnian Serb former politician who had been indicted for genocide and other war crimes during the Bosnian War and who became an inspiration for white nationalists. Though Stern was used to interviewing terrorists in the field in an effort to understand their hidden motives, the conversations she had with Karadžić would profoundly alter her understanding of the mechanics of fear, the motivations of violence, and the psychology of those who perpetrate mass atrocities at a state level and who--like the terrorists she had previously studied--target noncombatants, in violation of ethical norms and international law." -- provided by publisher.- Subjects: Autobiographies.; Biographies.; Stern, Jessica, 1958-; Karadžić, Radovan V., 1945-; Yugoslav War, 1991-1995; War criminals; War crimes; Genocide.; Interviewing in journalism;
