NEW YORK - Nyenta -- "Wordeee is pleased to announce the publication of Kamau Ptah's seminal book, Crossing the Threshold; Embracing the Call: Conceptualizing, Co-Creating and Building Community Through Rites of Passage," stated Marva Allen, Wordeee CEO.
Crossing the Threshold helps guide a new generation of educators, mentors, and Rites of Passage facilitators through the timeless pillars, concepts, and frameworks that support contextualizing the transformational initiation experiences that have occurred in their personal lives and provides tools for designing passages for future generations. Restoring a sacred, timeless method for optimal levels of community building, Crossing the Threshold is the foundation for the harvesting of affirmative identity, sacred gifts and the actualization of one's Divine purpose. It is a representation of a lifelong journey of Ptah's passages, coupled with thirty years of professional experiences conceptualizing, designing, implementing, and facilitating rites of passages in every community he served worldwide.

"For Black young men who are bombarded with conflicting and contradictory messages about what it means to be a man today, this book can serve as a source of grounding and a guide on how to live a purposeful, fulfilling life. Written with elegance and insight, it is truly a treatise full of wisdom and thought-provoking ideas. It will open eyes and hearts to the possibilities awaiting those who seek to understand who they are and why they are here."
— Pedro A. Noguera, PhD, Dean, Rossier School of Education; Distinguished Professor of Education, Univ. of Southern California.
"This critically important work provides a clear and present avenue to personal transformation and self-healing. It will also serve as the catalyst to a broader, deeper healing for those who are so moved to answer their call to facilitate and lead a broader and deeper community transformation through the Rites of Passage process. Kamau Ptah, through his personal deep reflective and active personal transformation, has powerfully articulated the blueprint steps to follow."
