Sinopse

Revolutionary Lawyers examines how legal professionals globally have used legal dissent and legal advocacy to challenge injustice, reform systems, and advance human rights law. It highlights the crucial, often overlooked, role of lawyers as agents of change, not just interpreters of laws. The book showcases instances where lawyers risked their careers and personal safety to defend political prisoners and fight for civil rights litigation, demonstrating the profound impact of individual commitment on broader social movements.

 
Exploring systemic reform, the book analyzes how lawyers have worked to overhaul entire justice systems plagued by corruption and inequality. It also delves into the establishment of international law frameworks designed to protect vulnerable populations from atrocities like genocide.

 
Through case studies, biographical sketches, and legal analysis, the book progresses chronologically, starting with early legal challenges and culminating in contemporary issues like climate justice. This book uniquely draws on court transcripts, personal correspondence, and interviews to provide a comprehensive analysis. It aims to inspire future lawyers, activists, and policymakers with a deeper understanding of the power and potential of legal advocacy for social justice.

    Sarah Grace is a sexual assault survivor. On 17 July 2019, she fell asleep like any other night. A burglar broke into her apartment and attacked her as she slept. What followed was a fight for her life. That violent assault blew apart her world, reducing everything in it to ashes.
    From that battle, Sarah has waged many more. She had to fight her way through post-traumatic stress, the social stigma around sexual assault and an archaic court system in her bid to ensure her attacker couldn't do the same to another woman. Some adversities were predictable – nightmares, panic attacks and the devastating loss of self. Others were surprising – toxic social reactions, friends withdrawing and a nightmarish trial that unearthed how heavily the criminal justice system is loaded against victims.
    Ash + Salt is a raw and powerful account of healing and thriving after sexual assault. Armed with courage and brazen candour, Sarah takes you through her own story to reveal the experience of a survivor. She offers the tools to survive the assault, its aftermath and the trial, and charts the path back to recovery. Because while ash marks the place of devastation, it is also the fertile soil from which new life can grow.
    This is a book for everyone – not just survivors, but their families, friends and colleagues too. Sexual assault affects us all, regardless of background or gender. It is one woman's personal testimony, but it is also a call to arms. The time to speak up is now.

    At nine years old, Marianne Richmond's life is upended when she collapses with full-body convulsions. "Pinched nerve," says the ER doctor. But when one episode becomes many, it's clear something is wrong. Afraid to be at school, in her body, and in her life, Marianne desperately hopes for help and healing. But her emotionally unavailable mother refuses medication on Marianne's behalf, preferring prayer and homeopathy. 
     
     
     
    At age 18, a full-body seizure in Marianne’s dorm room leads her to a diagnosis, medication, and neurological intervention. Physically, Marianne feels "fixed," but emotional healing proves more elusive. In the years to come, Marianne becomes a parent and writes a new story for her life. She authors children's books that touch millions of lives, each of them celebrating a mother's unconditional love. When her mother becomes ill, Marianne has a choice to make: will she be present for the mother who rarely felt present to her? 
     
     
     
    If You Were My Daughter is a story of learning to hear your own voice, of one daughter's return to wholeness, and a story of accepting that a mother's best can still fall far too short. Richmond illuminates how the stories we're born into shape the ones we tell about ourselves—and reminds us that we have the powerful permission to develop a new relationship with what is difficult in our lives.
