DOWNLOAD EBOOKOne of the New York Times’s Best Books of the 21st Century 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.

He believed in nothing other than true solidarity, unconditional loyalty, and he trusted those who he shared undivided compassion, as a friend, a brother, and a lover. He traveled throughout the country accompanied by men of honor, treachery, and corruption. They commit murders, robberies, and double cross against enemies and themselves. Scandalous acts blinded Paul's arrogance from the men who stood before him. They are James and Larry Williams, Little Harvey Bells, and Billy Green. Men he admired, but before he realized what was happening, the sun set in darkness in a penitentiary cell. Just when he thought everything was in the past far behind him, a more cunning and upsetting betrayal lands in his world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“I died in the Battle of the Somme...” These were the astonishing first words spoken to clairvoyant and healer Stephen Turoff by the soul of James Legett, a young soldier who was killed in the First World War. For two years, the world famous psychic surgeon communicated with the soldier’s soul, and in the process wrote down his remarkable story; not the tale of Legett’s tragically short life on the physical plane, but of his death on a battlefield in France and his soul’s subsequent journey into the afterlife. Although he works with many discarnate spirits in his clinic, the dyslexic Turoff was initially reluctant to undertake the task of writing a book. But he was persuaded by the boisterous and genial soul of the dead man. Their literary collaboration involved an unusual method: Legett presented spiritual pictures to Turoff, who with clairvoyant perception interpreted them into words. The result is this enlightening testimony of life beyond the illusion of death, filled with insight, spiritual wisdom and delightful humour. It is written to show that we are all eternal; there is no death... only change.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThere are no chains strong enough to keep those bound who He has called to be set free! Everyone has a testimony and testimonies never lose their power. This is our testimony of how God continued to pour out miraculous interventions in His predestined plan for our lives. This true account of one man's journey will merge with the next volume of one woman's journey. Together, they point us to the narrow road of oneness we all must choose, if we desire to see God's perfect will in our lives and discover how two become one. Our combined journey portrays an impossible, emotional roller coaster ride, yet all things are possible with God. From death contracts on our lives, to being abducted, the road of miraculous transformations from our will to God's is quite staggering. This resulted in visitations from heaven, angelic interventions, and opened doors to freedom that only God could provide through His mercy, grace and great love. This is a story of two individual storms turning into a hurricane for heaven.
