Discover the powerful story behind one of Australia's most iconic images in 'Black and Proud'. On April 17, 1993, Indigenous AFL footballer Nicky Winmar made history by standing up against racial abuse from the Collingwood crowd. By lifting his shirt and proclaiming 'I'm black and I'm proud to be black', Winmar sparked a nationwide conversation about racism and identity in Australia. This compelling book takes you beyond the photograph to explore the narratives of those who stood beside him—his courageous Indigenous teammates Nicky Winmar and Gilbert McAdam, as well as the photographers Wayne Ludbey and John Feder. These stories highlight acts of valor and provide an intimate look at the struggles and triumphs faced by these individuals in the realm of sport and society. 'Black and Proud' is not just a celebration of sporting history; it’s a profound examination of cultural pride and resilience.

Readable, concise, and clear
Format: Paperback
I am a fan of the late Dr. Heiser. He was a consummate scholar who was not afraid to challenge the status quo or tradition in cases where he felt Scripture was being mishandled or interpreted out of context. This book, the second of a two volume commentary series on the book of Enoch, was written to provide a readable commentary text to help the average person to understand this fascinating second temple period composition. I believe he succeeded admirably in navigating and explaining this work drawing heavily on the best scholarly interpretive sources.

Excellent commentary! Well documented!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Michael Heiser can be trusted to provide clear explanations of the text, the context and some of the various opposing schools of thought concerning a host of Biblical issues. He provides excellent resources and asks questions to help the seeker to understand what Scripture REALLY says. Careful! Some of your denominational doctrines may need to be re-examined. But if that’s the case, isn’t “now” a better time than later? Be blessed on your journey 🙏
