The essays that Mumia writes here offer the reader an insight in the criminal justice system that you could only see if you are inside it. When reading this essays,the reader gets the feeling of depression, isolation, sadness and of despair that any person on death row might be feeling. To me, anytime that a reader can feel the emotion of a story, the writer has achieved a point. Now whether or not you agree with the death penalty, I think that you should read this book. It will force you to think about you position and see it justice is really being served. The irony now is that someone else has finally come forward and admitted to the murder that Mumia was convicted of, but Mumia is still in a life or death battle to be freed. I think that the reader will enjoy this book and be overwhelmed by the emotion

A. Ralph Epperson, brilliant author of "The Unseen Hand", has now outdone himself with "The New World Order". Frightening and provocative at the same time, this novel will cause the reader to spend many sleepless nights wondering "what is it all about?". Packed with details and undaunted research that only a true historian can accomplish, Epperson challenges the reader to turn the page only to reveal another startling revelation. From cover to cover, this is a book that will invoke controversy, debate, and unfortunately, FEAR. To quote the character of Fox Mulder from the "X-Files": "The TRUTH is out there...for those who have the time to read." "The New World Order" is one of the best books I've come across this decade which I highly recommend!!

Assata tells stories of her upbringing, narrated her confusion and feelings of being incredibly lost. Sparks of intelligence and pride would fly in her, but she was unsure of where to go with it. This book shows that with action and a hungry motivation for reform to come about either in society or in an individual, something will happen.

People have been reviewing this saying I wish there was more of this or more of that. But what must be understood is that this woman spent more than 10 years in jail, in solitary confinement, after that she fled to cuba for political asylum, it doesn't seem she could just sit down and write what she wanted when she wanted, especially details that could be used against those in the struggle.

In her autobiography A Taste of Power, A Black Woman's Story, Elaine Brown chronicles her life from her childhood through her rise to the head of the Black Panther Party. She describes her feelings of powerlessness and fear as a black girl growing up in a poor section of North Philadelphia and her desire to assimilate in order to become like her elementary school classmates - white and affluent. It is not until after college and several eye-opening relationships with white men that she becomes politicized and turns to the Black Panther Party. She feels that their struggle is her struggle, their problems are her problems - but she rapidly finds herself in conflict. In the midst of a Black Panther Party that has become obsessed with armed revolution, she fights for social programs such as food banks, schools, and medical assistance. During her rise to leadership she repeatedly has to confront the machismo of the Panther Party: "A woman in the Black Power movement was considered, at best, irrelevant ... If a black woman assumed a role of leadership, she was said to be eroding black manhood, to be hindering the progress of the black race. She was an enemy of black people." She journeys from belief to disagreement to violent opposition, and eventually flees in fear for her safety. A Taste of Power is an insightful, detailed, and fast-moving look into Elaine Brown's struggles against oppression and opposition, before and during the era of the Black Panther movement

Is there such a thing as The Illuminati?
Does this fit into our sophisticated age?
Some ridicule the very idea, but in this book a fascinating portrayal is uncovered.

Are such words as Illuminism or The Illuminati new to you?
That is not strange, for today these expressions are unknown to millions, even among well educated people.
This results from the plan to keep that giant Conspiracy undercover, to always remain secret. "The great strength of our order lies in its concealment," declared Adam Weishaupf, founder of the new order in 1776. "Let it never appear in any place in its own name, but always covered by another name and another occupation." (Quoted in Robison's Proofs of a Conspiracy, p.195.)
This world-wide cover-up has been so cleverly conducted through the centuries, even millenniums, that most folk are entirely unaware of its existence.
This Conspiracy goes back to the time of Nimrod, that evil genius who began that ancient apostasy in Mesopotamia.
While every Sunday School teacher knows something about the Tower of Babel, few realize that the principles and philosophies of that ancient movement are right now playing a tremendous role in both our religious and political life.
The Illuminati 666 brings together many startling, almost unbelievable facts. Witchcraft, Astrology, 666, Freemasonry, Communism, Papacy, Federal Reserve, UN, universal product code, and more. Volume 2 of 2; volume 1 is Anti-Christ & 666.

An explosive, award-winning novel in the black literary tradition, "The Spook Who Sat by the Door" is both a satire of the civil rights problems in the United States in the late 1960s and a serious attempt to focus on the issue of black militancy.

Dan Freeman, the "spook who sat by the door," is enlisted in the CIA's elitist espionage program. Upon mastering agency tactics, however, he drops out to train young Chicago blacks as "Freedom Fighters." As a story of one man's reaction to ruling-class hypocrisy, the book is autobiographical and personal. As a tale of a man's reaction to oppression, it is universal
