  In the United States of America, racism against Black women still reigns unjustly. From within the secluded judge’s chambers to the courthouse parking lot, I’ve gathered five different incidents where powerful Black women are forced to come face to face with being on the other side of the law. 
  We follow the stories of Desirée Mary Charbonnet, Gay Polk-Payton, Angela Stokes, Rhonda Crawford, and myself—we happen to be some of the most prestigious Black judges and attorneys in the legal system. Readers follow our experiences in the Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, and Illinois judicial systems as we explore the fascinating and intricate dynamic of women in positions of power. Desirée, Gay, Angela, Rhonda and I are connected by one simple, yet complex dynamic: Black womanhood. What will our endgame be as women who are committed to upholding and enforcing what is right? Will we succumb to the pressures of America’s hand, or will we push forward in the face of adversity?

  The Quotable Darwin

  A treasure trove of illuminating and entertaining quotations from the legendary naturalistHere is Charles Darwin in his own words—the naturalist, traveler, scientific thinker, and controversial author of On the Origin of Species, the book that shook the Victorian world. Featuring hundreds of quotations carefully selected by world-renowned Darwin biographer Janet Browne, The Quotable Darwin draws from Darwin’s writings, letters to friends and family, autobiographical reminiscences, and private scientific notebooks. It offers a multifaceted portrait that takes readers through his youth, the famous voyage of the Beagle, the development of his thoughts about evolution, his gradual loss of religious faith, and the time spent turning his ideas into a well-articulated theory about the natural origin of all living beings—a theory that dangerously included the origin of humans.The Quotable Darwin also includes many of the key responses to Darwin’s ideas from figures across the social spectrum, scientists and nonscientists alike—and criticism too. We see Darwin as an innovative botanist and geologist, an affectionate husband and father, and a lively correspondent who once told his cousin that he liked to play billiards because “it drives the horrid species out of my head.” This book gives us an intimate look at Darwin at work, at home, as a public figure, and on his travels.Complete with a chronology of Darwin’s life by Browne, The Quotable Darwin provides an engagingly fresh perspective on a remarkable man who was always thinking deeply about the natural world.
