Book Description
This true story reveals the horrific details of life behind bars. A journal recorded during nearly nine months of incarceration explores the abject cruelty and punishment suffered by a falsely accused man. Interwoven are accounts of episodes that lead to the erroneous apprehension of two Rhode Island natives - a same sex couple - who took in two young siblings on the brink of separation. The teenage biological brother and sister, adopted on the infamous date of Sept. 11, 2001, accuse the couple of sexual abuse six years later. The innocent men are arrested, indicted on charges of child molestation, and held without bail at an adult correctional institution. They are victimized and endure unspeakable abuse, primarily resulting from coercion by prison staff and state marshals. Release from prison comes nine months later, following a mistrial held in Rhode Island Superior Court, and a plea bargain to avoid further incarceration. Most significant in the book Incite is its commentary concerning crime and punishment, the criminal injustice system, humanitarianism, and personal growth.This chronicle of transcendence reveals insight on courage in the face of uncertainty, as well as highlighting the concepts of judgment and forgiveness, diversity, acceptance, and personal choice. About the Author: Raymond Grenier lives in Rhode Island. He has undergone hip restoration surgery as a result of being attacked in prison while awaiting trial. He says, Names have been changed to protect the innocent and shield the guilty. Publisher's website: http: //www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/Incite.htm

Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 0822373440
Category : Social Science

Pages : 282
Book Description
The editors and contributors to Color of Violence ask: What would it take to end violence against women of color? Presenting the fierce and vital writing of organizers, lawyers, scholars, poets, and policy makers, Color of Violence radically repositions the antiviolence movement by putting women of color at its center. The contributors shift the focus from domestic violence and sexual assault and map innovative strategies of movement building and resistance used by women of color around the world. The volume's thirty pieces—which include poems, short essays, position papers, letters, and personal reflections—cover violence against women of color in its myriad forms, manifestations, and settings, while identifying the links between gender, militarism, reproductive and economic violence, prisons and policing, colonialism, and war. At a time of heightened state surveillance and repression of people of color, Color of Violence is an essential intervention. Contributors. Dena Al-Adeeb, Patricia Allard, Lina Baroudi, Communities Against Rape and Abuse (CARA), Critical Resistance, Sarah Deer, Eman Desouky, Ana Clarissa Rojas Durazo, Dana Erekat, Nirmala Erevelles, Sylvanna Falcón, Rosa Linda Fregoso, Emi Koyama, Elizabeth "Betita" Martínez, maina minahal, Nadine Naber, Stormy Ogden, Julia Chinyere Oparah, Beth Richie, Andrea J.

Pages : 277
Book Description
A trillion-dollar industry, the US non-profit sector is one of the world's largest economies. From art museums and university hospitals to think tanks and church charities, over 1.5 million organizations of staggering diversity share the tax-exempt 501(c)(3) designation, if little else. Many social justice organizations have joined this world, often blunting political goals to satisfy government and foundation mandates. But even as funding shrinks, many activists often find it difficult to imagine movement-building outside the non-profit model. The Revolution Will Not Be Funded gathers essays by radical activists, educators, and non-profit staff from around the globe who critically rethink the long-term consequences of what they call the "non-profit industrial complex." Drawing on their own experiences, the contributors track the history of non-profits and provide strategies to transform and work outside them. Urgent and visionary, The Revolution Will Not Be Funded presents a biting critique of the quietly devastating role the non-profit industrial complex plays in managing dissent. Contributors. Christine E. Ahn, Robert L. Allen, Alisa Bierria, Nicole Burrowes, Communities Against Rape and Abuse (CARA), William Cordery, Morgan Cousins, Ruth Wilson Gilmore, Stephanie Guilloud, Adjoa Florência Jones de Almeida, Tiffany Lethabo King, Paul Kivel, Soniya Munshi, Ewuare Osayande, Amara H.
