  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time, the author explores the complex dynamics of race and identity in America through a personal and impassioned narrative. The book consists of two letters, the first addressed to his nephew, James, on the centennial of the Emancipation, and the second, a reflection on his own experiences and the broader social and political landscape. Baldwin examines the historical and ongoing oppression of black people, the devastating effects of racism on individuals and society, and the search for meaning and identity in a world shaped by injustice. He recounts his personal journey, including his time in the church, and his encounter with the Nation of Islam. He analyzes the limitations of integration and the need for a radical transformation of American society to achieve true equality and freedom. The book delves into themes of love, fear, faith, and the possibility of redemption for both black and white Americans.

  Washington's Heir - The Life of...

  The first biography of George Washington's extraordinary nephew, who inherited Mount Vernon and was Chief Justice John Marshall's right-hand man on the Supreme Court for nearly thirty years. 
   
   
   
  In Washington's Heir, Gerard N. Magliocca gives us the first published biography of Bushrod Washington, one of the most underrated Founding Fathers. Born in 1762, Justice Washington fought in the Revolutionary War, served in Virginia's ratifying convention for the Constitution, and was Chief Justice John Marshall's partner in establishing the authority of the Supreme Court. Though he could only see from one eye, Justice Washington wrote many landmark decisions defining the fundamental rights of citizens and the structure of the Constitution, including Corfield v. Coryell—an influential source for the Congress that proposed the Fourteenth Amendment. As George Washington's personal heir, Bushrod inherited both Mount Vernon and the family legacy of owning other people, one of whom was almost certainly his half-brother or nephew. Yet Justice Washington alone among the Founders was criticized by journalists for selling enslaved people and, in turn, issued a public defense of his actions that laid bare the hypocrisy and cruelty of slavery.

  Habit Forming - Drug Addiction...

  Elizabeth Kelly Gray

  Habitual drug use in the United States is at least as old as the nation itself. Habit Forming traces the history of unregulated drug use and dependency before 1914, when the Harrison Narcotic Tax Act limited sales of opiates and cocaine under US law. Many Americans used opiates and other drugs medically and became addicted. Some tried Hasheesh Candy, injected morphine, or visited opium dens, but neither use nor addiction was linked to crime, due to the dearth of restrictive laws. After the Civil War, American presses published extensively about domestic addiction. Later in the nineteenth century, many used cocaine and heroin as medicine. As addiction became a major public health issue, commentators typically sympathized with white, middle-class drug users, while criticizing such use by poor or working-class people and people of color. When habituation was associated with middle-class morphine users, few advocated for restricted drug access. By the 1910s, as use was increasingly associated with poor young men, support for regulations increased. In outlawing users' access to habit-forming drugs at the national level, a public health problem became a larger legal and social problem, one with an enduring influence on American drug laws and their enforcement.
