Nelson Beats the Odds Author Ronnie Sidney, II, Releasing Second Book in June

From: "Ronnie Sidney, II, MSW" <Ronnie@creative-medicine.com>
Subject: Nelson Beats the Odds Author Ronnie Sidney, II, Releasing Second Book in June.

Greetings, my name is Ronnie Sidney, II, MSW and I am the author of Nelson Beats the Odds. Nelson Beats the Odds is a semiautobiographical graphic novel about a young man who struggles with the stigma of being placed in special education. It is currently #1 on the Amazon Best-Seller list in the learning disabilities category. Since April I've sold over 700 books online thanks to my blog and appearance on Fox News. I appeared on Fox and Friends Weekend and spoke candidly about growing up with an ADHD and learning disabled diagnosis. Two weeks ago NBC 12's Karla Redditte interviewed me about Nelson Beats the Odds and my upcoming book Tameka's New Dress. The interview will air on NBC Monday, May 30th, 2016.

 

 

 

On June 20, 2016 I will be releasing my second children's book Tameka's New Dress. The graphic novel will explore childhood trauma, parental substance abuse, bullying and kinship care. Tameka's New Dress shines light on these very tough issues and lays them out on the table for children and adults to talk about. In the book Tameka finds a creative way to confront her bullies without becoming a bully herself.  As a therapist, I work with young people who cope experiences like this on a daily basis. I wanted to write a book that would reflect their experience and encourage them to beat the odds.

 


Aside from my books, I've developed the Nelson Beats the Odds Comic Creator app for iOS mobile devices. The companion app allows users to customize photos and share them with friends on social media. I also started #iBeatTheOdds, a popular social media campaign that gives individuals a platform to share stories about how they beat the odds.

 

 

Over the past six months, I have presented at Virginia Commonwealth University, Virginia Union University, Reynolds Community College, Rappahannock Community College, Hamilton-Holmes Middle School, Richmond County High School, Northumberland High School, Tappahannock Elementary School, Richmond Public Library, Portsmouth Public Library and Central Rappahannock Regional Library. Speaking to children, parents and educators has been the most enjoyable part of my experience. For booking information, bulk orders and other requests please visit my website at www.creative-medicine.com.

FUNDAMENTALS IN AFRICAN HISTORY WITH RUNOKO RASHIDI

12 May 2016



Family, beginning Friday evening June 17 I will begin my Summer 2016 Facebook course.  It is called Fundamentals in African History with Runoko Rashidi.  All are welcome.  The classes, taught through text, photos and videos, begin at 9:00 pm United States Eastern Standard Time and last approximately 2.5 hours per class.  The contents of each class will remain posted throughout the duration of the course if you cannot participate live.

The classes, of which there will be twelve, are interactive, meaning there is ample time for questions and answers and discussion.  The course project, completely voluntary, is to compile a succinct timeline of the history of African rebellions and resistance movements, at home and abroad.  

The complete cost of the course is only $50.00 per household.  The total amount is used to help subsidize our ongoing efforts to rewrite and reconstruct the global history of African people.  The course will be taught on a special Facebook page set up specifically for this purpose. 

To pay your $50.00 tuition post via Paypal to Runoko@hotmail.com.  You will be immediately notified upon receipt of payment and enrolled in the course.  

No special equipment is required.  You only need a Facebook account.  

Here are the individual classes.  I reserve the right of course to make revisions to the course.

The Golden Age of the Olmec

The Moors in History

The Great Kings and Queens of Ancient Egypt

The Black Presence in Southeast Asia
