Book Description

My four books at this site are:- CHOSEN WORLD - OUR WAR ON ISLAM AND OUR OWN FREEDOMS; US INVASION OF CANADA AND ITS ABSORPTION; THE BLACK BUG - THE GENETIC BOMB & MORE BLACK HOLOCAUSTS; POETRY OF LOVE AND PROTEST. I grew up in a British Colony, British Guiana, and lived through its fight for independence, led by Cheddi Jagan with his wife Janet Rosenberg and Forbes Burnham. I also lived through the dark times of CIA and MI6 interventions. I left Guyana for Canada in 1971, while that county endured 40 years of darkness. After President Jimmy Carter eventually brokered fair elections Guyana is healing itself of its ethnic strife. Canada became my home in the 1970´s and I used my experience as a journalist for the "Guiana Graphic" and the "Chronicle" to research my books. My research for "CHOSEN WORLD - Our war on Islam and our own freedoms" led me to step beyond my own Christian faith and to investigate that of Judaism and Islam, primarily. My self education about Buddism, Hinduism, Zorastrianism and Bahiism was short and requires my followup. CHOSEN WORLD views contemporary events with as a ladder to future sequences and the lover rungs as leading to the origins of the events. This book then takes the reader into various futures that can arise from the events first discussed. One of the most challenging ´Chosen Worlds´ I examined forced me to enter the mind of a future Pope who is being blackmailed to cast the Church´s vote as directed by the world blight that American has become as it has become fully parasatized by foreign influences. My poetry of youth in Guyana and of my adult life in Canada, is also heavily influenced by my deep appreciation of women in my life and my love of nature. It speaks of my teen years when I was fortunate to have been romantically involved with ladies twice my age. Today, these older women would be called predators. Like all of my country people of those years, I grew up very close to nature and travelling in the tropical rain forests and on the mighty rivers of Guyana also influenced my POETRY OF LOVE AND PROTEST. The "protest" in the title of my poetry and in my novels stems my period of journalism in Guyana, writing about about the Amerindian, Chinese, Black and East Indian condition and of our overall poverty and despair. That protest reaches to my mid and later years. I experienced the same emotions of protest as I visited Canadian Reservations of slow genocide and experienced the fierce hatred that my Arab-Islamic name evoked among a small but active group in Winnipeg Manitoba. This group was weaned on the biblical stories of Ishmael and Isaac and carry with them their interpretation that they were short changed by God, in favour of the descendants of the biblical Ishmael. Millions of these nutcases are determined to contol the oil and water resources of the Islamic Middle East that they claim is their inheritance. CHOSEN WORLD addresses some of this. My Canadian experience is also shaped by experiences such as that with a former employer, who, when I gave him notice, played a Ben Franklin tape for me that said that to be successful I must not be like "Arabs who are dirty, lazy and failures."My name evoked passion simply by my speaking it, in Manitoba. Over the past decades, after Pierre Elliot Trudeau, I have been aghast at Canada´s steady morphing into an armed appendage of the Empire next door and at General Rick Hillier sending our lads and lasses to "kill the scum" in Afghanistan and to be sent back as dead "heroes.´ I flinch at the horror told by Palestinian survivors and Israeli journalists of the Sharon engineered genocides at Sabra and Chatilla. I am inured to the actions of those who react with outrage at criticism especially of the Occupation of Palestine. These antagonists were formed with their own prejudices and I came by min
