Kevin Powell manages to share this most important history in a clear accurate language that will benefit both young and old, especially those who believe that hip hop culture began during the age of music and television videos and those who are not quite certain if hip hop is a culture ...

Christ and the Maya Calendar

Robert Powell, Kevin Dann

Lindisfarne Books, 2009

Great book
Enjoyed this book immensely. Every anthroposophist with an interest in 2012 should read this book. It cuts through the confusion running rampant through the new age community on this topic and places it firmly within a context of anthroposophical concepts. Is also a great summary of various ideas in anthroposophy as well as emphasizes the anthrosophical conception of the Christ as well as ...

Excellent book for kids and adults who love the coast!
This book accomplishes everything -- its detailed pictures of plants and animals give kids something to look for on every page, while the descriptive and easy-to-read poetic text teaches about the complex system of a salt marsh. It shows that it was written by Kevin Kurtz, someone who has the perfect background of teaching marine education to students who visited the SC Dept. of Natural ...

Will Eisner, P. Craig Russell, ...

Dark Horse, 2002

Heartfelt Tales of September 11th and it's Aftermath
There's really not much I can say about this book. The stories contained in it are poignant and touching and heartbreaking and hopeful all at once, and each and every contributor has given not only their time and talent to the project, but clearly they've also given a piece of their hearts. Being born and raised in New York City, the events of September 11th are especially painful to me, but I ...

Kevin Powell

One World/Ballantine, 1998

This Book Is Bangin'
I think that this book was so hot because it is written by a person from my generation. I have to say that Kevin did "Keep It Real" and that he told us what was on his mind. I also like that Kevin matured in the book as he was able to see what his flaws were. I also have to thank him because after reading his book I realized that I was making some of the same mistakes that he made. Kevin is a ...

Who's Gonna Take the Weight: Manhood, Race, and Power in America

Kevin Powell

Three Rivers Press, 2003

The truth
I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Powell at the Essence Music Festival this year, and made sure to let him know his book is the truth. It's not for everyone, meaning you have to be able to expand your mind and be willing to be objective. It's obvious he speaks and writes what he writes, because these are very important issues, and also uses himself in many instances to show he isn't merely just ...
