Hardback. Zustand: Good. Tina Alexis Allen is the youngest of thirteen children brought up by a saintly mother and a strict Catholic father in the 1980s suburbs of Maryland. Her father, Sir John, was a formidable, charming, British-born man with the distinct honor of being knighted by the Pope. He ran a successful travel agency that catered to tours of the Holy Land and the Vatican that embodied the values of a good Catholic family. Unlike her devout father, Tina was a smart-mouthed high school basketball prodigy who kept her lesbian identity a secret from her family. When her father discovered her secret at age eighteen, he shocked her with his response: he, too, was gay. Sir John became a confidante for Allen, and her to him, but what began as a tender moment of trust and truth quickly spiraled out of control. Together, Allen and her father made pilgrimages to gay discos, experimented with drugs, and engaged in sex with their respective partners in public places, keeping their family in the dark all the while. Outside of their wild escapades, Sir John invited Allen to be his heir apparent at the travel agency. Under his wing, Allen grew suspicious of his frequent business trips, his multiple passports, briefcases of cash, and cache of illegal documents, and uncovered the stunning double-life of the father she thought she knew, secrets and all. Secrets of a Holy Father is the unbelievable true story of self-discovery, family, secrets, and the power of the truth.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Dr. Dell Sanchez began his journey into the lineage of his Latino family when it surfaced from his research of Jewish survivors of the Spanish and Portuguese Inquisitions of the 15th - 17th Centuries. The more Sanchez dug into historical record, the more he began to suspect his own Sephardic Jewish roots. The DNA of his mother and father served to prove his suspicions. Presented as a personal yet factual narrative, Out from Hiding includes six crucial topics that prove the existence of Sephardic Jewish roots among Latinos: - Historical and genealogical records - DNA evidence corroborating Sephardic Jewish roots among Latinos - Onomastics dealing with the Sephardic origin of surnames - Material evidence found within the Sephardic Latino community - Oral histories disclosing family secrets of thirteen Sephardic Latinos - Sanchez's professional observations and prognostications of the Sephardic Latinos' future Based on continued research, it has been estimated that there are tens of thousands of Hispanic/Latinos with Sephardic Jewish ancestry in America. The majority of these are not aware of their hidden Jewish roots, aren't aware of their hidden backgrounds. Out from Hiding is his journey through history, family genealogy, and personal faith. Perhaps it may be your journey, as well.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A Tell-All Memoir Exposes a Hidden Life and Hard-learned Lessons Southern. Black. Gay. Fatherless. Air Force Veteran. Ordained Methodist Minister. Master of hiding in plain sight. Cedrick Bridgeforth knows what it means to hold, hide, and wrestle with all of these identities. For years Cedrick had taken great pains to shield his full truth from the world. Then one day, at the height of his career, his entire universe came crashing down. Equal parts preacher, poet, confessor, and consummate storyteller, Alabama Grandson chronicles Cedrick's hard-fought journey to come to terms with the hidden and sometimes conflicting parts of himself. Bookended by poignant letters to his grandmother, Cedrick vulnerably depicts the suffering caused by denying his truth: You were the most influential person in my life. Yet as much as I admired and appreciated you, I did not trust you enough to say to you: I am gay. Written over three decades after his grandmother's death and at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, Alabama Grandson asks as many questions as it answers. This memoir will bring you along for a compelling and multidirectional journey into the past in order to point the way forward. All the while, Cedrick elegantly models that there are different paths to living a fully authentic life and different ways of being a leader and agent of change in today's world.…
