During the 1970s, grassroots women activists in and outside of prisons forged a radical politics against gender violence and incarceration. Emily L. Thuma traces the making of this anticarceral feminism at the intersections of struggles for racial and economic justice, prisoners’ and psychiatric patients’ rights, and gender and sexual liberation. All Our Trials explores the organizing, ideas, and influence of those who placed criminalized and marginalized women at the heart of their antiviolence mobilizations. This activism confronted a "tough on crime" political agenda and clashed with the mainstream women’s movement’s strategy of resorting to the criminal legal system as a solution to sexual and domestic violence. Drawing on extensive archival research and first-person narratives, Thuma weaves together the stories of mass defense campaigns, prisoner uprisings, broad-based local coalitions, national gatherings, and radical print cultures that cut through prison walls. In the process, she illuminates a crucial chapter in an unfinished struggle––one that continues in today’s movements against mass incarceration and in support of transformative justice.

Evelyn Summers is imprisoned for a crime that was wiped from her memory. In order for Evelyn to be released, she—along with other “reformed” prisoners—must pass seven mental, physical, and virtual challenges known as the Freedom Trials. One mistake means execution and, with her history of being a snitch, her fellow inmates will do everything they can to get revenge. When new prisoner Alex Martinez arrives, armed with secrets about Evelyn’s missing memories, she must make a choice. She can follow the rules to win and walk free, or covertly uncover details of the crime that sent her there. But competing in the trials and dredging up her erased past may cost Evelyn the one thing more valuable than freedom: her life.

Download T.R.I.A.L.S.: A Journey From Anxiety to Peace Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
If I told you the power of leaving anxiety behind and having positive, joy-filled days was as easy as reading this short book, would you believe me? No worries, I wouldn't either. However, I hope you will join me on a journey to see if you can convince yourself anxiety is a choice that we all have the power to choose to endure or let go. So many areas in our lives cause us anxiety, stress, worry, depression, etc. When we consider all the trigger points for these challenges we face, we must find the root or the core of what brings all these negative feelings and emotions. One of the underlying struggles we all deal with is the desire to be normal. We never want others to look at us and think we aren't "normal," or better put, "like them" (from our own perspective). When we look at the world around us, don't we find the biggest group of people who seem to be similar, and then we try to be like them because they are the "normal" ones? It feels silly just saying those words, but so many live by them. Do we really want to be like everyone else? The T.R.I.A.L.S. method has helped me in my journey to help others reduce stress in their lives. I have developed this acronym hoping to help us all find practical ways to overcome stressful situations and anxiety. T = Transparency R = Responsibility I = Intentionality A = Appreciation L = Limits S = Simplify At the end of each section, we will look at practical ways to implement these principles to reduce your current stress levels. There will also be a section of discussion questions at the end of each chapter to use for personal growth or group studies. Understanding T.R.I.A.L.S. has the potential to bring a tremendous amount of joy to your life. I encourage you to have an open mind and be optimistic about the possibility of reducing your stress and eliminating anxiety from your daily routine. The power to choose lies within you!

Named one of the most important nonfiction books of the 21st century by Entertainment Weekly‚ Slate‚ Chronicle of Higher Education‚ Literary Hub, Book Riot‚ and Zora A tenth-anniversary edition of the iconic bestseller—"one of the most influential books of the past 20 years," according to the Chronicle of Higher Education—with a new preface by the author "It is in no small part thanks to Alexander's account that civil rights organizations such as Black Lives Matter have focused so much of their energy on the criminal justice system." —Adam Shatz, London Review of Books Seldom does a book have the impact of Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow. Since it was first published in 2010, it has been cited in judicial decisions and has been adopted in campus-wide and community-wide reads; it helped inspire the creation of the Marshall Project and the new $100 million Art for Justice Fund; it has been the winner of numerous prizes, including the prestigious NAACP Image Award; and it has spent nearly 250 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. Most important of all, it has spawned a whole generation of criminal justice reform activists and organizations motivated by Michelle Alexander's unforgettable argument that "we have not ended racial caste in America; we have merely redesigned it." As the Birmingham News proclaimed, it is "undoubtedly the most important book published in this century about the U.S." Now, ten years after it was first published, The New Press is proud to issue a tenth-anniversary edition with a new preface by Michelle Alexander that discusses the impact the book has had and the state of the criminal justice reform movement today.

The island killed my friends, but I survived. Now they're forcing me to go back. A month ago, Adaline and Alexander Habermann ripped me from my home and the people I care about, but that seems a lifetime ago. The twisted twins run a sinister experimental facility disguised as a rehabilitation island. They brought me here along with other Supernaturals who became my friends and fought with me for survival, but now they're gone, and I'm still here, a prisoner. But there is a new twist. The twins say I can earn my freedom, but only if I help them. They want me back on the island to guide their fresh recruits-a terrible combination of vulnerable, young wizards, and blood-thirsty vamps. What happened last time still haunts me, and I can't trust the twins' promises. But what choice do I have? I must comply or stay a prisoner. Or worse, become a victim of one of their cruel experiments. To make matters worse, I have to work with Vaughn-the same werewolf I thought I had feelings for until he savagely betrayed me. We must figure out a way to keep these kids alive while the island does its best to kill us all. But Vaughn is dangerous, a vicious werewolf who only cares about himself. What will kill me first? The evil twins? Their island? Or Vaughn? If you loved Seeking the Fae, The Faerie Games, or Dark King, you'll want to check out this Fae Adventure Romance. It is a companion series to Supernatural Academy but can be read alone.
