Download or read book Jailcare written by Carolyn Sufrin and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thousands of pregnant women pass through our nation’s jails every year. What happens to them as they gestate their pregnancies in a space of punishment? Using her ethnographic fieldwork and clinical work as an Ob/Gyn in a women’s jail, Carolyn Sufrin explores how, in this time when the public safety net is frayed and incarceration has become a central and racialized strategy for managing the poor, jail has, paradoxically, become a place where women can find care. Focusing on the experiences of pregnant, incarcerated women as well as on the practices of the jail guards and health providers who care for them, Jailcare describes the contradictory ways that care and maternal identity emerge within a punitive space presumed to be devoid of care. Sufrin argues that jail is not simply a disciplinary institution that serves to punish. Rather, when understood in the context of the poverty, addiction, violence, and racial oppression that characterize these women’s lives and their reproduction, jail can become a safety net for women on the margins of society.

Download or read book I Will Survive written by Gloria Gaynor and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2014-03-11 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I Will Survive is the story of Gloria Gaynor, America's "Queen of Disco." It is the story of riches and fame, despair, and finally salvation. Her meteoric rise to stardom in the mid-1970s was nothing short of phenomenal, and hits poured forth that pushed her to the top of the charts, including "Honey Bee," "I Got You Under My Skin," "Never Can Say Goodbye," and the song that has immortalized her, "I Will Survive," which became a #1 international gold seller. With that song, Gloria heralded the international rise of disco that became synonymous with a way of life in the fast lane - the sweaty bodies at Studio 54, the lines of cocaine, the indescribable feeling that you could always be at the top of your game and never come down. But down she came after her early stardom, and problems followed in the wake, including the death of her mother, whose love had anchored the young singer, as well as constant battles with weight, drugs, and alcohol. While her fans always imagined her to be rich, her personal finances collapsed due to poor management; and while many envied her, she felt completely empty inside. In the early 1980s, sustained by her marriage to music publisher Linwood Simon, Gloria took three years off and reflected upon her life. She visited churches and revisited her mother's old Bible. Discovering the world of gospel, she made a commitment to Christ that sustains her to this day.

Book excerpt: “Masterful . . . an epic tale of backbiting, shady deal-making, and greed [that] reads like a John Grisham novel.”—The Wall Street Journal A real-life legal thriller as timeless as a Greek tragedy, tracing the downfall of one of America’s most famous lawyers and exposing the dark side of Southern politics—from the author of When Evil Lived in Laurel Dickie Scruggs was arguably the most successful plaintiff’s lawyer in America. A brother-in-law of former U.S. Senate majority leader Trent Lott, Scruggs made a fortune taking on mass tort lawsuits against Big Tobacco and the asbestos industries. He was hailed by Newsweek as a latter-day Robin Hood and was portrayed in the movie The Insider as a dapper aviator-lawyer. Scruggs’s legal triumphs rewarded him lavishly, and his success emboldened both his career maneuvering and his influence in Southern politics—but at a terrible cost, culminating in his spectacular fall, when he was convicted for conspiring to bribe a Mississippi state judge. Based on extensive interviews, transcripts, and FBI recordings never made public, The Fall of the House of Zeus uncovers the Washington legal games and power politics: the swirl of fixed cases, blocked investigations, judicial tampering, and a zealous prosecution that would eventually ensnare not only Scruggs but his own son, Zach, in the midst of their struggle with insurance companies over Hurricane Katrina damages. Featuring Trent Lott and Jim Biden, brother of then-Senator Joe Biden, in supporting roles, with cameos by John McCain, Al Gore, and other Washington insiders, Curtis Wilkie’s account of this uniquely American tragedy reveals the seedy underbelly of institutional power.

Download or read book Your Greatest Gift written by Richard Dotts and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-10-16 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If we are all powerful creators blessed with the ability to manifest whatever we want in life, why is it so difficult for some people to do so? Is there anything we have to do to "activate" our latent creative abilities as free-willed beings? In his latest book Your Greatest Gift, bestselling author and spiritual explorer Richard Dotts shares the two chance encounters in his life that led him to the realization of his greatest gift. A gift which not only unlocks all our desired manifestations but also has the power to help us transcend the perceived issues and challenges in our lives, whatever they may be. Many years ago while studying the various spiritual traditions, it suddenly dawned on Richard that tapping into our manifestation abilities should be something that anyone can do at will. It should not be something complicated, certainly not something that requires an instruction manual or a PhD to understand. As Richard writes in Your Greatest Gift, "I reasoned that if creation is our birthright, then manifesting should be a fundamental ability that every human being on this planet, regardless of race, background or education can tap into at will. Could it be something so fundamentally simple and obvious that most of us have overlooked?" It wasn't until the most challenging years of his life that pieces of the puzzle began to fall in place. Richard experienced the power of the greatest gift twice during his most trying times and noticed how his insurmountable problems seemed to straighten themselves out each time without his active intervention. The more Richard studied these two serendipitous episodes in his life, the more he realized something in common but overlooked at their core. He had unknowingly tapped into the greatest gift that unlocks all our desired manifestations.The greatest gift is not what we think it is. It is not about the Law of Attraction, not about having a sense of gratitude, appreciation or love, not about praying, affirmations and certainly not about tapping into the powers of our subconscious mind. All of those are useful tools along our journey, but our greatest gift is something way more fundamental than that.It is a latent ability which all of us possess, but have either forgotten or overlooked along the way. It is an action so simple that we can do it at any time and any place... yet most of us do not do it because we are always looking for external solutions to our "problems" in life. It is an action which does not depend on our intellect. It is something which is referred to over and over again in the Bible and in religious texts across the ages, but a concept that is so misunderstood in our modern society. When you finally understand what the greatest gift is and how it has always been within you, you'll understand how it can be transmuted and applied not only in your own life but also in the lives of others. In Your Greatest Gift, Richard teaches readers how to access this gift for themselves and also how to guide others to their own healing. This book goes beyond the manifestation of physical objects into the realm of effecting spiritual healing and wellness in all areas of our life. In his usual trademark and frank style, Richard explains how this greatest gift can be called upon in times of need and even used to help others through a non-verbal protocol which he shares in the book. When you have experienced the transformational power of this gift for yourself, you too, will recognize it as your greatest gift that unlocks all manifestations.
