  RAISING QUAMINA - The True Story...

  A True-Life Odyssey of Survival, Legacy, and Redemption. The name Quamina carries centuries of resistance, dignity, and power. This is the story of one man who refused to let that name die. 
  From the 1823 Demerara slave revolt led by Quamina Gladstone to the streets of 1980s America, Raising Quamina traces the unbreakable thread of Black defiance and resistance across time and continents. Rev. Duane A. Quamina steps into the legacy of his ancestors—not to romanticize rebellion, but to expose the brutal systems built to erase men like him. 
  Born into a world of quiet wars and loud betrayals, Quamina endured childhood trauma, military sabotage, encounters with the Turkish and Medellin cartels, and two wrongful imprisonments—in Germany and the United States. His legal battle in the infamous Wells Fargo prosecution—centered around the largest attempted heist in American history—ultimately led him to serve time in the historic Atlanta Penitentiary, a fortress of American punishment once home to some of the nation’s most notorious inmates, including Al Capone, Vincent “The Chin” Gigante, Carlos Lehder, Michael Milken, G. Gordon Liddy, and Frank Abagnale. 
  But this is not a story of defeat. It is a resurrection. 
  Guided by ancestral memory, spiritual awakening, and nonviolent leadership, Quamina rises from systemic injustice to reclaim his identity—and his voice. Raising Quamina is both personal and political, spiritual and historical. It is a testimony. 
  Raising Quamina is more than a memoir—it’s a call to conscience and a mirror held up to history. 
  With cinematic clarity and poetic truth, Rev. Duane A. Quamina lays bare the realities that others tried to bury. This is a story reclaimed, a legacy reborn, and a truth that refused to be erased. Once you start reading, you won’t walk away the same.

  The Prison Angel - Mother...

  The winners of the 2003 Pulitzer Prize for international reporting tell the astonishing story of Mary Clarke. At the age of fifty, Clarke left her comfortable life in suburban Los Angeles to follow a spiritual calling to care for the prisoners in one of Mexico's most notorious jails. She actually moved into a cell  
  to live among drug king pins and petty thieves. She has led many of them through profound spiritual transformations in which they turned away from their lives of crime, and has deeply touched the lives of all who have witnessed the depth of her compassion. Donning a nun's habit, she became Mother  
  Antonia, renowned as "the prison angel," and has now organized a new community of sisters—the Servants of the Eleventh Hour—widows and divorced women seeking new meaning in their lives. "We had never heard a story like hers," Jordan and Sullivan write, "a story of such powerful goodness." 
   
  Born in Beverly Hills, Clarke was raised around the glamour of Hollywood and looked like a star herself, a beautiful blonde reminiscent of Grace Kelly. The choreographer Busby Berkeley spotted her at a restaurant and offered her a job, but Mary's dream was to be a happy wife and mother. She raised  
  seven children, but her two unfulfilling marriages ended in divorce. Then in the late 1960s, in midlife, she began devoting herself to charity work, realizing she had an extraordinary talent for drumming up donations for the sick and poor.  
   
  On one charity mission across the Mexican border to the drug-trafficking capitol of Tijuana, she visited La Mesa prison and experienced an intense feeling that she had found her true life's work. As she recalls, "I felt like I had come home." Receiving the blessings of the Catholic Church for her mission, on  
  March 19, 1977, at the age of fifty, she moved into a cell in La Mesa, sleeping on a bunk with female prisoners above and below her. Nearly twenty-eight years later she is still living in that cell, and the remarkable power of her spiritual counseling to the prisoners has become legendary. 
   
  The story of both one woman's profound journey of discovery and growth and of the deep spiritual awakenings she has called forth in so many lost souls, The Prison Angel is an astonishing testament to the powers of personal transformation.
