Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller “Organizing is both science and art. It is thinking through a vision, a strategy, and then figuring out who your targets are, always being concerned about power, always being concerned about how you’re going to actually build power in order to be able to push your issues, in order to be able to get the target to actually move in the way that you want to.” What if social transformation and liberation isn’t about waiting for someone else to come along and save us? What if ordinary people have the power to collectively free ourselves? In this timely collection of essays and interviews, Mariame Kaba reflects on the deep work of abolition and transformative political struggle. With a foreword by Naomi Murakawa and chapters on seeking justice beyond the punishment system, transforming how we deal with harm and accountability, and finding hope in collective struggle for abolition, Kaba’s work is deeply rooted in the relentless belief that we can fundamentally change the world. As Kaba writes, “Nothing that we do that is worthwhile is done alone.”

Book excerpt: Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor tells her own story for young readers for the very first time! As the first Latina Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor has inspired young people around the world to reach for their dreams. But what inspired her? For young Sonia, the answer was books! They were her mirrors, her maps, her friends, and her teachers. They helped her to connect with her family in New York and in Puerto Rico, to deal with her diabetes diagnosis, to cope with her father's death, to uncover the secrets of the world, and to dream of a future for herself in which anything was possible. In Turning Pages, Justice Sotomayor shares that love of books with a new generation of readers, and inspires them to read and puzzle and dream for themselves. Accompanied by Lulu Delacre's vibrant art, this story of the Justice's life shows readers that the world is full of promise and possibility--all they need to do is turn the page. Praise for Turning Pages: * "A sincere and insightful autobiography that also demonstrates the power of the written word. A winning addition to libraries that serve young readers." --School Library Journal, starred review "A personal and appealing book made to inspire." --Booklist "A thoughtful introduction to both the power of reading and an inspiring role model." --Kirkus Reviews "This book would be great as a read-aloud for class discussions of the Supreme Court, or United States government, or of important people in public service. It would also be good for independent reading by students interested in biographies or political figures." --School Library Connection

In clear and simple language, Preet Bharara, former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, explains what justice is and what it takes to achieve it for even the youngest readers. Drawing on examples of historic justice seekers whose deeds best demonstrate those attributes by asking hard questions, keeping an open mind, defending the truth, and using their voices and their bodies to fight injustice—such as Ida B. Wells, John Lewis, Malala Yousafzai, and many others, this timely book is perfect for exploring the concept of justice. Inspire young readers to fight for justice in their world and to remain hopeful that by standing together, it can triumph.

Book excerpt: Bringing together theory, research, and practice to dismantle Anti-Black Linguistic Racism and white linguistic supremacy, this book provides ethnographic snapshots of how Black students navigate and negotiate their linguistic and racial identities across multiple contexts. By highlighting the counterstories of Black students, Baker-Bell demonstrates how traditional approaches to language education do not account for the emotional harm, internalized linguistic racism, or consequences these approaches have on Black students' sense of self and identity. This book presents Anti-Black Linguistic Racism as a framework that explicitly names and richly captures the linguistic violence, persecution, dehumanization, and marginalization Black Language-speakers endure when using their language in schools and in everyday life. To move toward Black linguistic liberation, Baker-Bell introduces a new way forward through Antiracist Black Language Pedagogy, a pedagogical approach that intentionally and unapologetically centers the linguistic, cultural, racial, intellectual, and self-confidence needs of Black students. This volume captures what Antiracist Black Language Pedagogy looks like in classrooms while simultaneously illustrating how theory, research, and practice can operate in tandem in pursuit of linguistic and racial justice. A crucial resource for educators, researchers, professors, and graduate students in language and literacy education, writing studies, sociology of education, sociolinguistics, and critical pedagogy, this book features a range of multimodal examples and practices through instructional maps, charts, artwork, and stories that reflect the urgent need for antiracist language pedagogies in our current social and political climate.

A.Graduated at University of Czechoslovakia with Academic Title Mgr.- Magister.Witnessed first hand suffering of innocent citizens Communist system brought to Czechoslovakia, when his mom and dad were robbed of their small bakery.It wasn't hard to recognize cruelty of communist system, when it was OK to rob by Government Officials and visiting the church could be used against you.In 1968, when Soviets invaded his homeland, Jozef escaped to Canada and became High school teacher. After more than 20 years it looked that it was safe to visit mom and dad.It was too late for Jozef to find out that Slovaks are building democracy by old corrupted communist creeps.Jozef was kidnapped by police car, kept for ransom in government jail, was tortured.Piles of documents were fabricated, number of signatures forged, children abused, families destroyed, just to cover up illegal acts of corrupted Slovak police and other bastards in Slovak justice system to get finances from Jozef.Jozef is probably most qualifying person in the world to understand what is going on in all communist and post communist jails, because he was in one of them.He understands how brains of abusers work, because he studied psychology and Marks-Lenin dogma. He had also grown up with some of the abusers. Most importantly he survived torture on his own skin.All this knowledge and experience is wasted by Canadian Government as they do not want to hear about it.If they did, somebody could ask the question:- Why didn't they try to stop abuse when it was taking place and why they are defending abusers now.Jozef has written this story for only one reason. He believes strongly that everybody should do something becauseTORTURE and ABUSE MUST STOP.

Book excerpt: “This book commits almost every crime against heroic fantasy that I can imagine ... and I have not been able to put it down.” —Glen Cook, bestselling author of The Black Company A young warrior and his improbable band of allies face impossible odds as they seek to rescue his brother from the servants of the Fallen God. Emrael Ire is a student of war with lofty ambitions, despite being so poor his boots are more hole than leather. He and his talented younger brother Ban work hard to build themselves a better life at the Citadel, a school that specializes in both infusori Crafting and military arts. Their lives are upended when the power-hungry Lord Governor of the neighboring province invades the school with the help of a sinister sect of priests devoted to the newly awakened Fallen God of Glory. Many of the infusori Crafter students are captured—Including Ban. Though Emrael stands little chance against the Lord Governor and his armies, he’s desperate to save his brother—even if that means accepting the help of allies with uncertain motives, or becoming a practitioner of a forbidden magic. There is nothing he won't sacrifice to save his brother, but what happens when the cost of success is not his to pay?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On October 18, 2011 Joel and his family's life changed forever when his older brother and best friend Mathieu was hit and killed by the driver of a 28 ton crane truck. Mathieu, an artist, was riding his bike home from his art studio in Brooklyn, NY. The tragedy made headlines on CNN, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Maclean's Magazine, the CBC, and many other news agencies in Canada and the US. Through his eyes Joel gives first-hand knowledge of what it's been like to go up against one of the world's largest police forces, the NYPD. It took Joel and his family six years to discover the truth about how his brother was killed. In his own straight forward and heartfelt way, Joel speaks of the grief, sadness, anger and frustration he felt during his family's long fight for justice. Joel was inspired to write this story to raise awareness about traffic safety and to show others who are victims of injustice that they have a voice and that they can make a difference. He hopes his story will inspire others who are struggling against injustice.

Book excerpt: "Although the topics dealt with are complex, the author has been very successful in presenting and exploring them clearly. Students may find particularly helpful the summary at the end of each chapter of the main points covered in that section. The Legal Executive "...the real strength of this book lies in the critical thinking that arises from the juxtaposition of two very much unfinished debates: the question of how victims are treated by the justice system, and the practices and implications of restorative justice. "...I feel this book is particularly important because it reframes a whole series of debates and practices which, otherwise, might be in danger of getting 'stuck'. That this is also undertaken by someone who is extremely knowledgeable about the subject matter and perceptive in relation to key issues is an added bonus." Vista Two of the principal and most influential developments within criminal justice policy - taking in a variety of common law jurisdictions during the past thirty years - have been the rise of the ‘victim movement’ and the emergence of a distinctive set of practices that have become associated with the term ‘restorative justice’. Understanding Victims and Restorative Justice examines the origins of and the relationship between these two sets of developments, and seeks to assess their strengths and weaknesses in meeting the needs of victims as part of the overall response to crime. Written in a lively and accessible style this book is of benefit to students from a range of disciplines including criminology, sociology and the law. Also helpful to professionals, practitioners and policymakers working in voluntary agencies within the criminal justice system.

Book excerpt: In Small Claims Court there's only one winner... Don't let your opponent rake you over the coals. It happened to me. Burned like toast! Now I'm fighting back the best way I know how ... by showing you how to fight and win in small claims court. If you're like most honest folks, the closest you've ever come to a courtroom battle is watching two people slug it out in front of television's Judge Judy. But chances are that you have already been wronged by some someone. Like it or not, you are going to have to defend your honor and reputation in front of a judge. Here's just a small sample of what you'll discover the minute you start flipping through Brisk Justice ... * The two keys to a successful outcome in any court case (and no, hiring an attorney is not one of them). page 7 * Simple steps you can take to make the judge's life easier (helping the judge understand your case can make a huge difference in your favor). * How to rip apart your opponent's case (all perfectly legal ... $300 an hour attorneys do it every day). pages 58-60 * Five good reasons why you might want to settle out of court. (Hint: Even if you win the court battle, you could lose the war in other ways.) Read pages 96-99 to avoid making a big mistake! * The one thing you must never do in a court case (guaranteed ... if you miss this little detail, you'll go down in flames). The information in Brisk Justice is the super powerful ammunition you'll need to win in Small Claims Court. I believe in this book so much I proudly offer a money-back guarantee: You'll win your Small Claims Court case or this book is FREE. Just send me a message. I'll refund your money. Done and done. No questions asked. If you're being sued, theclock is already ticking. Get an answer to the court before the deadline or you lose. Here's more ... * Stupid little mistakes to avoid like the plague (make just one and you'll lose the case, hands down). * When and why you should bring your case to court even if the other party decides to settle at the last minute. Don't miss this little insurance policy on page 117. * Get all the lingo down pat - 19 legal terms you need to understand (they're not difficult ... just important). pages 13-16 * Bad checks are a pain in the butt. In small claims court you can get the bum to pay the original amount of the check plus additional money for damages ... if you know how to do this. Flip to page 88. * The only time you should ever raise an objection to your opponent's testimony and why you should never say objection, your honor! It's on page 153. * Verbal promises are contracts enforceable by law, but what I reveal about what's said after a written contract is signed will shock you! (Make sure you read this or you won't have a legal leg to stand on.) pages 62 and 69 * If you've been wronged you'll need to write a demand letter to the yellow dog. On pages 104-113 I show you how to write a legal and effective demand letter ... even if you flunked your creative writing course. I also show you how to write a killer response if you receive a demand letter. I include real samples. Way better than fill-in-the-blanks. * Why even a written contract is no guarantee you've got a winning case (it's a simple matter of law you need to know now!). If you're lucky, you'll be able to settle your differences the old fashioned way . with a handshake and an apology. Maybe it'll cost you a few bucks in theprocess. That's a BIG maybe. You see, today we live in a world where people end up in court over the least little thing. And once it gets to court it becomes a really big thing. If you're not up for the challenge, you could lose your shirt ... as well as your pride and your dignity. There's only one winner in a court battle. I'm here to help you come out on top.
