LEXINGTON, N.C. (Newswire.com) – Fulton Books author Caitlin Bishop, a freshman at Campbell University who enjoys walking her beloved dog Jackie Chan and painting in her free time, has completed her most recent book “Kit’s Curly Hair”: a charming and poignant story about the importance of loving one’s self and embracing what makes one unique and different.

A young girl named Kit finds herself being made fun of by her peers at school because of her curly hair. Unable to wear it in braids like her friends or use fun hair clips, Kit tries her best to hide her hair, choosing to hate a part of herself that she has no control over. Despite this, as she grows older Kit learns not to judge herself based on the mean comments of others, and soon grows to appreciate her curly hair as what sets her apart from the crowd.

Published by Fulton Books, Caitlin Bishop’s book encourages young readers to not give into bullying and allow others to tear down their self-esteem. Rather, Bishop shares her tale to inspire others to learn to love what makes them special, and not hide their uniqueness from the world but to show it off with pride.

Readers who wish to experience this uplifting work can purchase “Kit’s Curly Hair” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes & Noble.

OBAMANOMICS AND FRANCISCONOMICS: Morgan State University’s Philosopher ‘Outsources’ His Economic Philosophy to Rome’s World Congress of Philosophy

Published

on

ROME /PRNewswire/ — Two years after the publication of OBAMANOMICS AND FRANCISCONOMICS (2022), Dr. Zekeh Gbotokuma was boosted by three international accolades that his book has received. Everything began with the book launch at the Assisi 2022 Global Event with Pope Francis on September 22-24. The three accolades that followed the book launch were the Second Place win at Milano International Literary Awards 2022; the Special Critics Prize at Cattolica International Literary Awards 2023 a.k.a. “The Oscar of Italian Literature” (https://ereleases.com/y/lkxa); and Literary Global Book Awards 2023 in the Category of Social Change (2023 Literary Global Book Awards Winners and Finalists). These accolades have incentivized the author to spread the word about his book from Johns Hopkins University’s Humanities in the Village program to Paris’ Université Sorbonne and Rome’s La Sapienza University, the venue of the XXVth World Congress of Philosophy (XXVWCP), 1-8 August, 2024. Dr. Gbotokuma’s paper title is, “OBAMANOMICS AND FRANCISCONOMICS: Reflections on President Obama’s and Pope Francis’s S.O.S. Call for Poverty Alleviation and Green Economy.”


ABSTRACT
President Obama and Pope Francis are two global leaders, whose elections have symbolized hope and change in a spider’s web-like world. Their synergy was useful in a concerted effort to wage the war on poverty and climate change in accordance with the UN’s Global Goals and the Paris Accord of 2015.

Obamanomics and Francisconomics is a critical economics theory. It questions existing capitalist system. Its commitment to economic and ecological justice leads the two leaders to suggest ways to improve life in our unequal world. Obama and Francis believe that poverty and climate change are phenomena that humans can control via the green revolution. They decry greed as a contributing factor to inequalities. Francis proposes a new approach to property based on the early Christian thought. Obama stresses equal opportunity and a fair share and fair shot middle-class economics.

WCP is the biggest philosophical gathering organized by the Fédération Internationale des Sociétés Philosophiques (FISP). For Gbotokuma, XXVWCP is also like a homecoming since he is an alumnus of Rome’s Gregorian University.

Dr. Gbotokuma is a Philosophy Professor at Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. He is the author of numerous publications and one of “the Key Figures in the African Intellectual Revolution” (QUORA).
