Boade Mandeng in partnership with Studio of Books, published the book “Rise from the Blue”. This is now available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other leading online bookstores.
In this poignant and thought-provoking narrative, the book follows the journey of John Nobola, an immigrant of color who arrives in the United States with high hopes of finding refuge and happiness in what he once believed to be a noble society.
However, as the years pass, Nobola’s idealistic view begins to crumble as he witnesses a growing wave of social violence, unrest, and political corruption.
What seemed like a land of opportunity turns into a battleground of conflicting ideologies and destructive forces, leaving Nobola deeply disillusioned by the America he had once dreamed of.
Despite his frustrations, Nobola remains resilient and hopeful for a brighter future. Through social media, public events, and heartfelt conversations with friends and family, he channels his dissatisfaction while continuing to praise the efforts of the few patriotic politicians fighting for change.
This story is a powerful exploration of the challenges faced by immigrants in today’s America, and it critiques the complex political landscape, urging readers to reflect on the country’s future and their own role in shaping it.
With a mixture of hope and realism, the book presents an emotional journey that will resonate with anyone grappling with the promises and disappointments of the modern world.
