A Path-Maker: An Unfollowable Path
In a world where conformity often reigns, the Path-Maker archetype emerges as an extraordinary figure—a genderless transformative leader who boldly ventures off the well-trodden path to forge a trail that is unfollowable. This ebook delves into the meta-spiritual and multi-faith dimensions of the Path-Maker, celebrating their role as decentralized leaders within community. Embodying courage, innovation, and authenticity, the Path-Maker advocates for individuality and inspires transformation in meta-spiritual communities. They bridge the gap between spiritual realms and the physical world, offering profound insights and guidance on multi-faith journeys of Self-discovery and personal transformation. This book explores how the Path-Maker archetype fosters environments of growth, Self-liberation, and collective development, embodying the essence of truth-seeking and catalyzing profound shifts in consciousness.
A Strange Fruit: A Theopoetics of Slavery in Amerika
In A Strange Fruit: A Theopoetics of Slavery in Amerika, the author, a 21st-century Theopoet and descendant of enslaved People of Color (POC), explores the complex intersections of colonized religion, chattel slavery, and their enduring impact on the spiritual and cultural identity of POC in America. The term “Strange Fruit” evokes the haunting legacy of lynching and systemic oppression, while also reflecting the fragmented identities that colonialism imposed on POC.
Through the lens of Theopoetics, this work uncovers how the religious symbols and meanings that colonized authorities wielded were not merely tools of spiritual control but weapons of dehumanization, leaving deep scars of religious trauma. The book grapples with the ongoing “Meaning Crisis” that many POC face in the 21st century as they struggle to reclaim their sense of self from the grip of oppressive religious and cultural narratives.
