Inhaltsangabe

Use Your Word Power to Bring About Positive Change. You will be amazed!

Being a journalist has not been my formal training nor my profession. Becoming an advocate journalist has been my calling.

As circumstances, issues, and forces—social, political, economic—occur all around me, push against me, I have chosen to push back. I have consciously entered and continue to enter the fray, using the power of words—the only real and lasting weapon I have.

The writings of an advocate journalist always boil down, directly, or indirectly, intentionally, or unintentionally, to a plea—imploring the reader or listener to think, to consider the facts, the circumstances, the workable solutions for the issues at hand, and when appropriate and necessary to engage in action.

In carrying out my calling to be an advocate journalist, I have primarily addressed some of the enduring issues of our times. But also, I could not ignore the temporal—pressing issues of the hour. Most of my writings during the last four decades have maintained their relevancy, fulfilling a needed voice.

As a collection, the selected commentaries are snapshots of history and are included because of their timeliness and timelessness.

During the past four decades, they have been written for a large radio station, a major metropolitan daily newspaper, community newspapers, and currently online.

This is Book I, Ethics and Values, of three books in the Real Advocacy Journalism® series. Book II focuses on Justice and Equality. Book III addresses Patriotism and Politics.

Book I has received great editorial reviews from Kirkus Reviews, Midwest Book Reviews, and Chanticleer International Book Reviews and more.
