Download or read book Get Out Stay Out written by Mike Enemigo and published by Cell Block Publishing. This book was released on 2023-05-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book should be in the hands of everyone in a prison cell. It reveals a challenging but clear course for overcoming the obstacles that stand between prisoners and their freedom. For those behind bars, one goal outshines all others: GETTING OUT! After being released, that goal then shifts to STAYING OUT! This book will help prisoners do both. It has been masterfully constructed into five parts that will help prisoners maximize focus while they strive to accomplish whichever goal is at hand. Part One: Get Out! Preparing For Board Hearings breaks down the process step by step and provides prisoners with much-needed tips and information that will increase their odds of being granted parole. Part Two: Understanding Recidivism explains the forces that make recidivist prisoners repeat the same cycle over and over -they themselves are often baffled at their situation. This part provides information, understanding, and insights that they need to uproot their compulsive-criminal mentality, and break the recidivist cycle. Part Three: The Change Process provides prisoners with proven strategies to a positive life change. These strategies cover multiple topics that may have affected their lives, such as anger, substance abuse, illegal activity, and gang involvement. Part Four: Stay Out! Preparing for Release covers obvious survival issues like money, employment, housing, and transportation, as well as not so obvious issues, like how to deal with the mental, emotional, and social changes that prisoners face upon release. Part Five: Social Security and Other Benefits covers benefits that are available to prisoners reentering society. It focuses on what these benefits offer, which ones they qualify for, and how they can get those benefits.

Download or read book Tazmamart written by Aziz BineBine and published by Haus Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-05 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A memoir from a political prisoner in Morocco's notorious Tazmamart prison. On July 10, 1971, during birthday celebrations for King Hassan II of Morocco, attendant officers and cadets opened fire on visiting dignitaries. A young officer, Aziz BineBine, arrived late and witnessed the ensuing massacre without firing a single shot, yet he would spend the next two decades in a political prison hidden in the Atlas Mountains—Tazmamart. Conditions in this now-infamous prison were nightmarish. The dark, underground cells, too small for standing up in, exposed prisoners to extreme weather, overflowing sewage, and disease-ridden rats. Forgetting life outside his cell—his past, his family, his friends—and clinging to God, BineBine resolved to survive. Tazmamart: 18 Years in Morocco’s Secret Prison is a memorial to BineBine and his fellow inmates’ sacrifice. This searing tale of endurance offers an unfiltered depiction of the agonizing life of a political prisoner.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having emigrated from Kerala, India, to the United States in 1973 at the age of twenty-five and experiencing life in India as a young man and the rest in the United States, Andrew faced many challenges and was always trying to reason with various incidents and opportunities. Growing up as one of the five children in a village close to Kottayam town in the state of Kerala during the 1950s and 60s, he had unique experiences during his childhood and young life. Andrew finds life interesting, enjoyable, and challenging, yet he is disturbed by people s criminal activities and evil behavior. He was always trying to find the reason why people get into these negative forces. Often, the reason for criminal behavior is greed, hatred, anger, jealousy, doubts, and sometimes poverty. But he has seen criminal behavior among drug addicts and alcoholics. Andrew concludes that most of the time, a criminal is created during his or her childhood. A person s behavior, habits, thinking patterns, and character are molded during childhood, through the influence of parents, teachers, and others. Andrew also believes that a person can change if opportunity is given by being with good people in good surroundings. Andrew has a master s degree in environmental engineering from Stevens Institute of Technology, New Jersey, and a master s degree in chemistry from Kerala University. He currently works as the director of operations of a utility operating company. He has written extensively in various magazines in India on environmental issues. He has published three books through AuthorHouse: A Journey through Generations, an autobiography, and two novels, Secrets of Passion and Love with the Ghost, using the pen name Andreos. Andrew is a community activist involved in various community organizations.
