  The Shocking Truth about...

  The criminal justice system is the cornerstone of maintaining order and enforcing laws in any society. It functions as the mechanism through which society addresses crime, ensures accountability, and administers justice. At its core, the system is composed of three key components: law enforcement, the judiciary, and corrections. Each of these plays an essential role in maintaining balance, protecting the rights of individuals, and upholding the rule of law. 
  Law enforcement is the first point of contact for individuals involved in criminal activity. Police officers, detectives, and other law enforcement agencies are tasked with investigating crimes, making arrests, and ensuring public safety. They have the authority to detain individuals suspected of committing crimes and gather evidence to support prosecution. The relationship between law enforcement and the community is pivotal in ensuring a fair and just system. However, this power can be easily abused, leading to tensions, allegations of misconduct, and issues such as racial profiling. 
  Once a crime is detected and an arrest is made, the case moves into the court system, where judges, prosecutors, and defense attorneys interact. The role of the judiciary is to oversee trials, ensure fair procedures, and make determinations of guilt or innocence. The prosecutor represents the state’s interest, aiming to secure a conviction based on evidence, while the defense attorney works to protect the rights of the accused, challenging the evidence and the actions of the prosecution. A jury may be involved in determining the outcome, offering a layer of public scrutiny over the decisions made.

  Invisible Illness - A History...

  A moving cultural history of disability—and a powerful call to action to change how our medical system and society supports those with complex chronic conditions 
    
  From lupus to Lyme, invisible illness is often dismissed by everyone but the sufferers. Why does the medical establishment continually insist that, when symptoms are hard to explain, they are probably just in your head? 
    
  Inspired by her work with long COVID patients, medical anthropologist Emily Mendenhall traces the story of complex chronic conditions to show why both research and practice fail so many. Mendenhall points out disconnects between the reality of chronic disease—which typically involves multiple intersecting problems resulting in unique, individualized illness—and the assumptions of medical providers, who behave as though chronic diseases have uniform effects for everyone. And while invisible illnesses have historically been associated with white middle-class women, being believed that you are sick is even more difficult for patients whose social identities and lived experiences may not align with dominant medical thought. Weaving together cultural history with intimate interviews, Invisible Illness upholds the experiences of those living with complex illness to expose the failures of the American healthcare system—and how we can do better. 
    
  "This book challenges us to address discrimination in clinical care for people with complex chronic conditions like long Covid, questioning why some are believed while others aren't—a persistent disparity in US healthcare."—Oni Blackstock, primary care and HIV physician and founder of Health Justice
