Her leadership of the Pillar of Fire Church in Zarephath New Jersey represented a radical departure from mainstream Methodism focusing on rigorous lifestyle restrictions including the vegetarianism detailed in this 1915 work.</p> <br /> <p data-path-to-node="6">White's legacy is deeply polarized. While 'Why I Do Not Eat Meat' showcases her progressive views on animal ethics and women's health it was written just years before she became a leading religious apologist for the Ku Klux Klan. This work is a vital artifact for the study of early 20th-century "fringe" religious movements and the often-contradictory intersection of social reform vegetarianism/feminism and nativist ideologies in American history.</p> <br /> <p data-path-to-node="7">SUBJECTS: Alma White Pillar of Fire Church Vegetarianism Animal Ethics Women in Religion New Jersey History Holiness Movement Religious Extremism Religious History Health & Wellness Social Reform.</p> The Pentecostal Union unknown

ill., br. "What happened, Miss Simone?" è la storia di una bambina nera del Sud che inseguì un talento prodigioso e divenne Nina Simone; di Nina Simone imprevedibile e tormentata, che attraversò il proprio tempo e divenne la Sacerdotessa del soul; del soul che rincorse le sue dita sul piano, tra le fughe di Bach e il cuore del blues; è la vita e la leggenda di una donna che marciò con Luther King e MalcolmX, che cantò orgoglio e segregazione, che fece piangere e ballare. È la storia di una voce profonda e oscura, di una voce brutale e sincera che parlava d'amore e scagliava accuse, di una donna incapace di chiedere scusa, del suo disturbo mentale, di occhi severi e solitudine; della meraviglia di "Sinnerman", della rabbia di "Mississippi Goddam". Alan Light scrive la biografia più completa dedicata a Nina Simone: dall'esordio a dieci anni - in cui si rifiutò di suonare finché i suoi genitori non poterono sedersi con i bianchi - ai trionfi della Carnegie Hall, dal sogno di diventare una grande pianista classica alla consacrazione pop con il successo planetario di "My Baby Just Cares for Me". Nato come arricchimento dell'omonimo documentario candidato all'Oscar, con documenti nuovi e inediti, "What happened, Miss Simone?" insegue, tra le cadute e i trionfi, il fantasma di una regina del jazz che visse con la stessa ruvida autenticità il suo tempo, la sua razza e il suo sesso, amò molti uomini, fu picchiata dal marito e oppresse sua figlia.
