  Egyptian Medicine - Practices...

  The origins of Egyptian medicine trace back to the earliest periods of ancient Egypt, where the intertwining of practical knowledge and spiritual beliefs laid the foundation for one of the most advanced medical systems of the ancient world. As early as the Pre-Dynastic period, evidence of rudimentary medical practices reveals that Egyptians were already exploring ways to treat injuries and ailments using natural resources available in their environment. 
  Religion played a fundamental role in shaping the practice of medicine in ancient Egypt. The Egyptians believed that the gods held power over health and illness, with many deities associated with specific aspects of healing. For instance, Sekhmet, the lioness goddess, was both a bringer of plague and a healer, while Thoth, the god of wisdom, was revered as a patron of physicians. Temples dedicated to these deities often served as centers for both worship and healing, where priests acted as both spiritual leaders and medical practitioners. 
  Early medical practices were closely linked to mythology, with illnesses often attributed to divine displeasure or the influence of malevolent spirits. Healing rituals and incantations were designed to restore the balance between the individual and the divine order, highlighting the Egyptian belief in a holistic approach to health. The blending of prayer, magic, and practical remedies reflects a medical philosophy that considered both the physical and spiritual dimensions of wellness.

  In Get Off My Neck, Debbie Hines draws on her unique perspective as a trial lawyer, former Baltimore prosecutor, and assistant attorney general for the State of Maryland to argue that US prosecutors, as the most powerful players in the criminal justice system, systematically target and criminalize Black people. Hines describes her disillusionment as a young Black woman who initially entered the profession with the goal of helping victims of crimes, only to discover herself aiding and abetting a system that prizes plea bargaining, speedy conviction, and excessive punishment above all else. In this book, she offers concrete, specific, and hopeful solutions for just how we can come together in a common purpose for criminal justice and racial justice reform. 
   
  Get Off My Neck explains that the racial inequities in the prosecutorial system are built into our country’s DNA. What’s more, they are the direct result of a history that has conditioned Americans to perceive the Black body as insignificant at best and dangerous at worst. Unlike other books that discuss the prosecutor’s office and change from inside the office, Hines offers a proactive approach to fixing our broken prosecutorial system through a broad-based alliance of reform-minded prosecutors, activists, allies, communities, and racial justice organizations—all working together to end the racist treatment of Black people. 
   
  Told intimately through personal, family, and client narratives, Get Off My Neck is not only a deeply sobering account of our criminal justice system and its devastating impact on Black children, youth, and adults but also a practical and inspiring roadmap for how we can start doing better right now. 
   
  “Years as a prosecutor taught Debbie Hines that justice in America isn’t colorblind—it’s color coded. In Get Off My Neck, Hines not only exposes the staggering racial inequities in our prosecutorial system and the harsh history that produced it, she lights a brilliant path toa more just and equitable future.”—Marc H. Morial, President and CEO, National Urban League
