Download or read book A Call for Injustice written by E. M. Moore and published by . This book was released on 2008-03-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1998 eighty to ninety percent of the criminal and domestic violence arrests in this country have been men. In California alone, from 1988 through 1998 nearly 450,000 men have gone to jail. Think about it - nearly half a million men incarcerated. And while the numbers aren't as daunting in the rest of the country, the statistics are the same...80-90% of thousands of men have been arrested on what is often flimsy evidence. Although it has been known for years that women are equally violent in domestic relationships, and though it is often they, not the men who initiate the violence, through manipulation of the legal system, they are avoiding arrests. I know it, I lived it. A Call for InJustice recounts the real life story of how this happens. Through the lives of Jim and Jan Avery (not their real names) it exposes the process that has been unleashed upon men for the sins of people that have preceded them. A Call for Injustice is so unbelievably personal and incredibly honest that, to paraphrase one booklover, it nearly begs that you ask permission from the author to read it.

Download or read book Backs Against the Wall written by Kathy A McCloskey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Backs Against the Wall: Battered Women’s Resistance Strategies tackles several controversial aspects involved with intimate partner violence (IPV)—namely the approaches many victims use when resisting their oppressors. This sensitive and sensible feminist perspective concerning battered women's use of different resistance strategies, and the reasons why they use them, also focuses on ways to support victims through intervention and prevention strategies. Leading experts provide current research, revealing viewpoints, and convincing assertions about the victims of IPV. This book powerfully refutes the sweeping assertions made by today’s antifeminist-based mindset that women are as violent as men in cases of IPV perpetration. This insightful source provides strong evidence of the different resistance strategies that battered women use in response to multiple oppressions, including IPV, in the case against the gender parity argument—that may very well be politically motivated. The text provides extensive references and several figures and tables to clearly present data. This book is a valuable resource for activists, educators, students, health providers, justice system workers, advocates, and researchers. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Aggression, Maltreatment and Trauma.
