Combat Black Dog Syndrome worldwide; a portion of all proceeds from Black Dog Project will be donated to black dog rescue. One of Tumblr's most viral blogs of 2014, the Black Dogs Project is a stunning photo series by animal photographer Fred Levy. Known as "Black Dog Syndrome" in animal shelters and rescues, it refers to the unfortunate phenomenon that black dogs are frequently the LAST dogs to be adopted and the FIRST dogs to be euthanized in rescue shelters. Animal photographer Fred Levy couldn't believe that it was true, so he began talking with shelters. Not only does the phenomen exist, but he discovered it's an epidemic. Levy decided to turn his camera lens to black dogs, showing the world how beautiful they truly are. He called the photo series, The Black Dogs Project, and the stunning photographs have been shared worldwide, spreading awareness and attention to the problem. A portion of all proceeds for Black Dogs Project will be donated to black dog rescue.

Hundreds of ordinary citizens appear to be under the watchful eye of black helicopters said to be among the surveillance tools of the New World Order -- a secret society of high powered individuals who are working behind the scenes to control global destiny. The author maintains that there are now all kinds of strange aircraft flying overhead which may -- or may not -- be based on alien technology. Reports of unusual activity around Area 51 are now ignored heavily because of the 'kook factor' associated with UFOs. But for misinformation to be effective, it must contain some elements of truth. These secret, black budgeted aircraft continue to be developed using technologies -- including anti-gravity -- that are so highly sophisticated that the possibility exists the science used could be the result of an exchange between secret earthly forces with some unknown intelligence. Includes information on many of these secret black projects; including a series of 129 underground military bases in the US which are connected by magneto-leviton trains that have speeds up to Mach 2 that are solely under the command of the New World Order.

"This volume of essays is the first to focus on the Colored Conventions movement, the nineteenth century's longest campaign for Black civil rights. Well before the founding of the NAACP and other twentieth-century pillars of the civil rights movement, tens of thousands of Black leaders organized state and national conventions across North America. Over seven decades, they advocated for social justice and against slavery, protesting state-sanctioned and mob violence while demanding voting, legal, labor, and educational rights. Collectively, these essays highlight the vital role of the Colored Conventions in the lives of thousands of early organizers, including many of the most famous writers, ministers, politicians, and entrepreneurs in the long history of Black activism"--
