Nella Larsen's powerful, thrilling, and tragic tale about the fluidity of racial identity that continues to resonate today. A New York Times Editors' Choice Clare Kendry is living on the edge. Light-skinned, elegant, and ambitious, she is married to a racist white man unaware of her African American heritage, and has severed all ties to her past after deciding to "pass" as a white woman. Clare's childhood friend, Irene Redfield, just as light-skinned, has chosen to remain within the African American community, and is simultaneously allured and repelled by Clare's risky decision to engage in racial masquerade for personal and societal gain. After frequenting African American-centric gatherings together in Harlem, Clare's interest in Irene turns into a homoerotic longing for Irene's black identity that she abandoned and can never embrace again, and she is forced to grapple with her decision to pass for white in a way that is both tragic and telling.

Husband loved it!!
Got this for my husband on Christmas and he absolutely loves this. The instructions were straightforward on how to build and it took less than an hour to assemble. The lights are pretty cool. They change different colors and there's different settings with the remote. I will say he did have to nail these to the studs in the wall so it can hold his hefty drinks LOL

A royal pain to install
The width of this item is such that it CANNOT be attached to the wall studs. That is unsafe for something that is intended to hold heavy items like liquor bottles. THEN the anchors that come with it are flimsy so we used a heavier different style anchor (threaded). That said, I like the way it looks, and the light effects.

New Bourbon Shelf
I just got done putting it together and hanging it on my wall. It took approximately 35 minutes to put together and another 15 minutes to hang up. I had to use my own larger wall anchors and screws. I tried the ones that came with it but they didn’t do the job. I am happy with it other than that. Good value and quality materials. As you can see from the picture it holds several bottles and room for more if I want. I think the LED lights look great as well.

Mocks dispensational viewpoints on key Thessalonian chapters.
Format: Hardcover
Very good read. You really walk away feeling like an expert in the Thessalonian Epistles after reading this book because Weima always is searching for theological answers to the questions that arise within the Epistles themselves. You really see the deep unity of Paul's purpose in writing these epistles after reading this commentary. The only problems for me where I did not agree with Weima's conclusions was on dispensational issues in 1 Thess. 4 and 2 Thess. 2. Weima rejected the idea of the rapture without dealing with it at all and then proposed the idea that its talking about a "Hellenistic reception" of a king coming into a city. I don't get it, Weima thinks we do go to the sky meet the Lord in the air and then lead him to the earth, it's so preposterous. It seems like God is in control of this event not man leading Christ to the earth. If he wants to criticize the rapture 'which yes I do believe.' Make your argument. But instead Weima just says things like "so called rapture" without refuting it with logic at all. And then in another eschatological text in 2 Thess. 2 Weima rejects any kind of a literal interpretation and says "We can't actually believe that the Anti-Christ actually goes into a rebuilt Jewish temple as some dispensationalists believe." I'm paraphrasing Weima's words. Weima flat out rejects any dispensational viewpoints on these important verses and doesn't deal with them at all like he does other viewpoints. Other than that I think this was a great read. Highly recommend the book.
