Using My Word Power Book II 2024
This is Book II, Patriotism and Politics, of three books in the Real Advocacy Journalism® series. Book I focused on Ethics and Values. Book III will address Justice and Equality.
Book I has received great editorial reviews from Kirkus Reviews, Midwest Book Reviews, Chanticleer International Book Reviews and more. It also won the Silver Award from the Midwest Independent Publishers Association.
I have been an advocate journalist for the past four decades.
Being a journalist has not been my formal training nor my profession. Becoming an advocate journalist has been my calling.
As circumstances, issues, and forces—social, political, economic—occur all around me, push against me, I have chosen to push back. I have consciously entered and continue to enter the fray, using the power of words—the only real and lasting weapon I have.
The writings of an advocate journalist always boil down, directly, or indirectly, intentionally, or unintentionally, to a plea—imploring the reader or listener to think, to consider the facts, the circumstances, the workable solutions for the issues at hand, and when appropriate and necessary to engage in action.
In carrying out my calling to be an advocate journalist, I have primarily addressed some of the most enduring issues of our times. But also, I could not ignore the temporal—pressing issues of the hour. Most of my writings during the last four decades have maintained their relevancy, fulfilling a needed voice.
As a collection, the selected commentaries are snapshots of history and are included because of their timeliness and timelessness.
During the past four decades, they have been written for a large radio station, a major metropolitan daily newspaper, community newspapers, and are currently online.
In my writings, I have endeavored to practice the tenets of Real Advocacy Journalism® —stick to the facts, analyze them, and put an event, situation, or issue into perspective in order to foster a better understanding and provide direction to form an opinion or pursue an action. Real Advocacy Journalism® is the focus of my book, Shaping Public Opinion: How Real Advocacy Journalism® Should Be Practiced (2021).
All commentaries, written across the decades, have been chosen for their enduring relevancy in terms of the timeliness, or timelessness of their subject matter—then and now. Many represent historical accounts of defining moments, incidents, and issues that have had lasting impacts and lessons learned.
My hope is that in sharing my attempt to improve understanding about issues that impact us all you will be informed, enlightened, inspired, and have reaffirmation that in addition to our beliefs, our words and actions are what advance a more civilized and better society.
