SITWE JOSEPH FIGHTS COVID

Jackson Kaguri, creator of what started out in affect as AIDS Orphanage Nyaka in his native Uganda, mines his younger self, mixed with youngsters his organization is helping to thrive – and a young voice emerges that is warm, informative, positive, aspirational, and life affirming. Sitwe Joseph, a great storyteller, runs with friends, most notable a little girl his age named Patience Mariza, creating a world that is book series worthy and dare we say the substance of a powerful colorful educational program and television series in the tradition of Dora the Explorer.

Howard Kern
$20 plus shipping and handling
Poetry Without Pants: Written When Nobody’s Looking is the second volume in an evolving series of books created by ShiftPoetry(TM), a program designed to use freewheeling writing (poetry in the broadest sense aka writing without rules) to get to a better place in life. ShiftPoetry(TM) is bibliotherapy – using words to heal, to understand problems, to find solutions. Journaling and memoir writing are forms of bibliotherapy but ShiftPoetry(TM) is faster, more spirited, encourages group participation, allows for deep self-awareness but it is also gratifying and at times even lighthearted – and fun.
