October 15, 1995. Congress makes a decision changing the federal drug law, inciting simultaneous riots in over 10 federal prisons as a result of the seemingly racial motivation, causing over 39 million dollars in damage.And no one reported it.Joel Blaeser survived the riot at FCI Talladega, the first of over ten, only to be charged with inciting it along with 21 other convicts, all black. An inspiring educational book that breaks many myths about the war on drugs, the american prison system and race in america. Joel's story chronicles his journey through the prison system, beginning with his trek across the globe following the Grateful Dead, then spanning the 6 federal prisons he did time in, in USP Marion, the most dangerous federal super maximum prison ever built, eventually culminating in the loss of his 2.9 million dollar lake estate and recovery from alcohol. Incarcerated (after losing his federal jury trial) as a naive Midwesterner 23 year old, Joel is amongst and one of the morally corrupt living in lock up where the guards are as corrupt as the criminals. A backstage pass to a otherwise off limits world, Joel's story's rich unvarnished details of life inside "the" most predacious super maximum prison ever devised, USP Marion during the 1990's, where the entire prison population was on 22-23 hour lock down.Sentenced to 151 months as a first time non violent offender, he grew up in a university of crime; learning how to survive both in and outside of the spiritually bereft walls of prison from the likes of John gotti, Bruce Pierce, James (Doc) Holliday and many others, some of the most predacious and sophisticated criminals of our time.

A beautiful commemorative edition of Dr. Martin Luther King's essay "Letter from Birmingham Jail," part of Dr. King's archives published exclusively by HarperCollins. With an afterword by Reginald Dwayne Betts On April 16, 1923, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., responded to an open letter written and published by eight white clergyman admonishing the civil rights demonstrations happening in Birmingham, Alabama. Dr. King drafted his seminal response on scraps of paper smuggled into jail. King criticizes his detractors for caring more about order than justice, defends nonviolent protests, and argues for the moral responsibility to obey just laws while disobeying unjust ones. "Letter from Birmingham Jail" proclaims a message - confronting any injustice is an acceptable and righteous reason for civil disobedience. This beautifully designed edition presents Dr. King's speech in its entirety, paying tribute to this extraordinary leader and his immeasurable contribution, and inspiring a new generation of activists dedicated to carrying on the fight for justice and equality.

From Jacqueline Jackson, wife of Jesse Jackson, role model, and civil rights veteran, comes an inspiring gift of love to a child in his darkest hour—and a lesson to everyone who has been touched by the scourge of mass incarceration. Jacqueline Jackson promised her son, Congressman Jesse L. Jackson, Jr., that she would write him every day during his incarceration in prison while he served his thirty-month sentence. This book is an inspiring and moving selection of the letters she wrote him. Together, they comprise a powerful act of love—nurturing and ministering to her son's heart, health, and mind and maintaining his essential connection with home. Frank, anecdotal, imbued with faith, and sometimes humorous, they offer intimate details from the family’s daily life, along with news of friends and the community and glimpses of such figures as Nelson Mandela, Winnie Mandela, and Mayor Marion Barry. They also touch eloquently on issues of social justice, politics, and history, as when Mrs. Jackson recalls growing up in Jim Crow Florida, and they reflect the qualities, instilled by her own mother, that made her a role model for much of her life. Ultimately, these letters offer a blueprint for why we have to support our families not just as they elevate but when they fall. This collection is Mrs. Jackson's contribution to healing during a time when our prisons are full and our communities are suffering. She provides the road map for ensuring that the individuals serving sentences understand that prison is where they are, not who they are and for helping them sustain the courage to keep hope alive.

In June 2007, Lee Stagni, an accomplished computer technology executive and advocate for disabled children began a 43-month journey through the Federal prison system that forever changed his life and the lives of those around him. Reading Letters from Camp— One Family’s Prison Story, we relive his experience through his weekly letters home, and gain added insight about his family’s struggles from his wife’s personal diary. The story chronicles life in two federal prisons; the residential drug abuse program (RDAP); the untimely death of his father and his attempts to attend the funeral; and ultimately his return to society through the halfway house and term of supervised release. Stagni’s observations and “lessons learned” are eye-openers. First-time white-collar offenders facing incarceration will discover what awaits them upon their arrival. Stagni and his wife tell their story with the hope that it might somehow help other families through the emotionally ravaging and sometimes terrifying odyssey that is prison.
