ABOUT LOOKING
The lyrics from Looking are included in this book. The songs speak to the pulse of the nation. This book is unique in its own way. Each chapter has its own voice while depicting fiction, nonfiction, poetry, prose, commentary, short stories, and memoirs. Economic, social, political, and religious beliefs are found in different chapters. History that is non-fiction is often hard to separate from creative fiction. The reader determines what is truth.
Looking: Past, Present, Future” by James V. Cockerham is an engaging exploration of human experiences across time, masterfully weaving a tapestry of narratives that seamlessly blend fiction and non-fiction. With a profound grasp of the intricacies of life’s journey, Cockerham delves into the stories of individuals, places, and events, spanning generations and echoing the struggles and triumphs of Americans of African descent. The book’s foundation in lyrics from Cockerham’s musical creation, CD, “Looking,” lends an artistic dimension to the storytelling, infusing each tale with a rhythmic resonance.

Looking Past, Present, Future” is an amazing set of circumstances put together on paper, in song and acted on stage. It’s format is original and simple, yet startles the viewers. It grabs the readers and hearers in such a way that we see and hear life’s realities explicitly and awkwardly displayed.
The book is poetic and marvelously written and the music that accompanies the theme of “Looking Past, Present, Future” is creatively styled in several genre’s of musical offerings. James V. Cockerham is a genius and has created a new form of theatrics for all ages and talents.
