Danna Jo Napoli discusses her historical fiction book "Hush - An Irish Princess' Tale". The book is about a 15-year old Irish princess named Melkorka who is kidnapped by slave traders. After being taken to another unknown country, Melkorka has no connections to help her survive on her own, except for a young boy she meets on the streets, though he later leaves her. Napoli explains that she started the book with Melkorka shopping with her family rather than just introducing her, to grab readers' attention and prevent them from losing interest or skipping ahead. The reporter encourages listeners to purchase the book to discover its surprises.

CH1:Rowdy Gives Me Advice About Love
Have you ever watched a beautiful woman play volleyball?
Yesterday, during a game, Penelope was serving the ball and I watched
her like she was a work of art.
She was wearing a white shirt and white shorts, and I could see the
outlines of her white bra and white panties.
Her skin was pale white. Milky white. Cloud white.
So she was all white on white on white, like the most perfect kind of
vanilla dessert cake you've ever seen.
I wanted to be her chocolate topping.
She was serving against the mean girls from Davenport Lady Gorillas.
Yeah, you read that correctly. They willingly called themselves the Lady
Gorillas. And they played like superstrong primates, too. Penelope and
her teammates were getting killed. The score was like 12 to 0 in the first
set.
But I didn't care.
I just wanted to watch the sweaty Penelope sweat her perfect sweat on
that perfectly sweaty day.
She stood at the service line, bounced the volleyball a few lines to get
her rhythm, then tossed it into the air above her head.
She tracked the ball with her blue eyes. Just watched it intensely. Like
that volleyball mattered more than anything he in the world. I got jealous
of that ball. I wished I were that ball. As the ball floated in the air,
Penelope twisted her hips id back and swung her right arm
back over her shoulder, coiling like a really pretty snake. Her leg
muscles were stretched and taut. I almost fainted when she served. Using
all of that twisting id flexing and concentration,
she smashed the ball and aced le Lady Gorillas.
And then Penelope clenched a fist and shouted, "Yes!"
Absolutely gorgeous.
Even though I didn't think I'd ever hear back, I wanted to know what to
do with my
feelings, so I walked over to the computer lab and e-mailed Rowdy. He's
had the same address for five years.
"Hey, Rowdy," I wrote. "I'm in love with a white girl. What should I
do?"
A few minutes later, Rowdy wrote back.
"Hey, Asshole," Rowdy wrote back. "I'm sick of Indian guys who treat
white women like
bowling trophies. Get a life."
Well, that didn't do me any good. So I asked Gordy what I should do
about Penelope. "I'm an Indian boy," I said. "How can I get a white girl
to love me?"
"Let me do some research on that," Gordy said.
A few days later, he gave me a brief report.
"Hey, Arnold," he said. "I looked up 'in love with a white girl' on Google
and found an
article about that white girl named Cynthia who disappeared in Mexico
last summer. You remember how her face was all over the papers and
everybody said it was such a sad thing?"
"I kinda remember," I said.
"Well, this article said that over two hundred Mexican girls have
disappeared in the last three years in that same part of the country. And
nobody says much about that. And that's racist.
The guy who wrote the article says people care more about beautiful
white girls than they do about everybody else on the p.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

3. Reporter: Hello everyone, Welcome back
to the Leon’s new. For today’s show we
will be interviewing Danna Jo Napoli. She
will be talking about one of her historical
fiction books called Hush – An Irish
Princess’ Tale.
Click
4. Danna Jo Napoli: Hi, and yes I will
be talking about my book called
Hush – An Irish Princess’ Tale.
5. Reporter: So, I have heard a lot about your
book and I have few questions I would like
to ask you about.
7. The first thing I want to know, is that what
exactly is the book about?
8. Danna Jo Napoli: This book is basically
based on a princess, who comes from
Ireland and is kidnapped by her slave
traders. Her name is Melkorka, she is
fifteen. After she gets kidnapped, all
her family and friends try to find her
and try to get information out of the
guards.
9. Wow that sounds very interesting. Ok so
why have you started the book by
Melkorka and her younger sister, shopping
in Dublin with her family? I mean why not
introducing the character first and then
getting to the point?
10. Danna Jo Napoli: That is a really good
question. Well you see usually novels start
off by the introduction but i thought I
should have started it with a change, and
start with an event. Another reason is so
the readers won’t skip some pages, or
become bored, because readers usually
enjoy when you finally get to the point and
start off straight away.
14. Danna Jo Napoli: Well after getting
kidnapped she was brought to
another country which she didn’t
know about. And because she was a
15 YEAR old princess no one really
knew her and just took her as a
normal citizen.
15. Reporter: Wait, if she was brought to a
country which she had no idea about
how did she have connections with her
family and how must have she survive?
16. Danna Jo Napoli: She didn’t have any
connections with her family or
friends. And he had no one who to
help her survive all by herself but this
young aged boy who she found in the
streets. But after a while the boy left
the princess.
19. Reporter: Well thanks for coming; we
really enjoyed having you here. All of the
viewers should dash to the store grab this
book have a read and we assure you that
you will enjoy! You never know what
surprises you will come across in the
book so just give it a go and thanks for
listening.
20. Danna Jo Napoli: Bye I had a great
time and I hope we see each other
again.
