DOWNLOAD EBOOKHere American history and American law merge into one. Key historical events and landmark legal cases fill the pages of this book. American ideals of “All men are created equal” and “Equal justice under law” run headlong into white supremacy and gender inequality. This textbook allows history teachers and students alike to explore the social and cultural impact of judicial thinking on American society. The lessons are clear, concise and informative. They can be taught in a single semester in a Civil Rights class or in tandem with an American History class. A wider reading audience, interested in how the wheels of justice turn, can gain a deep understanding in short order of the history and case law surrounding civil rights. WORDS OF PRAISE "A brief and comprehensive analysis of cases with perceptible legal acuity from beginning of the nation to present day. This book gives readers substantial insight into how the legal system did or did not work. It documents graphically how the law is a living, organic and expanding force." --William J. McCarthy Lawyer/Educator McAllen, Texas "A must read for history students! Mr. McLinden’s book chronicles details of past and recent events in US history. This book does not contain any fluff or useless information." --Bitsey Horton Paralegal Los Angeles, California "A stimulating new book, with a great narrative. It turns usually impenetrable legal writings into a fabled, real-life struggle for civil rights. It shows how lawmakers and courts have promoted and protected personal freedoms, but also have historically attacked and ignored those same freedoms. This panoramic view provides an honest portrayal of the strides and setbacks our country has been dealing with in our march towards Justice for All." --Robert F. Durham Ph.D. 30-year History teacher Salt Lake City Schools

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Black Book of Rights: In Furtherance of the Civil Rights Movement is written in two distinct but related sections. The first section reviews law enforcement in the United States of America, citing several studies demonstrating how, despite the Civil Rights Movement's successes, Black Americans are still under attack by the Criminal Justice Regime (police, prosecutors and judges). Relevant United States Supreme Court case law is highlighted to show, 1) the progression of how courts have viewed Black Americans and their place in the United States, and 2) how close in time we are to American cultural practices and customs that were said to have detrimental effects that "are likely to be undone."The second section of the book details the various encounters you have with police officers, provides you with bullet point law and facts concerning those encounters and explains how to best position yourself for the safety and preservation of your rights in a potential criminal case. The stated goal of the Black Book of Rights is to reduce the number of Black men in prisons. The Black Book acknowledges that law enforcement is unlikely to change the tactics it deploys against Black Americans that create the disproportionality found in all aspects of the Criminal Justice Regime, so the author places the responsibility on Black America to learn their rights and asks for accountability to one another for properly invoking those rights. With approximately 90% of individuals waiving their Miranda rights, the Black Book is critical in teaching the rights you possess during a police encounter and how to invoke those rights correctly. You're charged with the duty of education and application, because white America is not coming to save you.
