  "I served as the principal at the toughest inner-city public school in Compton, California. A school where the Crips and the Bloods fought over turf, and which had suffered a devastating mass shooting with over a dozen injured and killed. Under my watch, we ended gang violence and prevented more mass shootings in school. Here's my recipe to end them nationwide." - Edward Gilliam 
  As a witness to the tragic events that unfolded at Columbine High School and a former school principal, Edward Gilliam brings a distinctive memoir, Compton Shuffle, that explores the recrudescence of gun violence in American schools. 
  In this narration, Gilliam sheds light on his involvement in the fight to secure American schools and protect his students and those around him. 
  Following the horrific events that left the American people grieving and forced to confront the complicated problem of mass shootings and gang violence, Edward leads readers through a chronicle that is both heartbreaking and inspirational. He does this with a searing remembrance of that day in 1999. 
  Over the course of almost three decades, Gilliam recounts his experiences and observations regarding all the factors that led to the disruption of educational systems. He discusses the various aspects of racism, prejudice, inadequate education, police brutality, and family dissolution that lead to school violence.

  It was the arrival of Robert Clive, as the governor of Bengal which was to change the scene in India permanently. It is interesting to note that Robert Clive started his career as a mere clerk in East India Company. Clive met the emperor at Allahabad and got the permission for himself and the East India Company, the Diwani of the three provinces of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa. The Diwani gave them the right to collect revenue and dispose of them without the responsibility for the provincial administration and without the appearance of complete annexation. The emperor, the suzerain authority, Shuja of Awadh and the Nawab of Bengal were links of an indivisible chain. The emperor was the central master while the provincial servants in the traditional Mughal hierarchy were Shuja and the Nawab. Now, Clive ensured that he could operate without the interference of any. It was a masterstroke!

  Ghost in the Criminal Justice...

  Despite reform efforts that have grown in scope and intensity over the last two decades, the machine of American mass incarceration continues to flourish. In this powerful polemic, formerly incarcerated activist, essayist, and organizer Emile Suotonye DeWeaver argues that the root of the problem is white supremacy. 
   
   
   
  During his twenty-one years in prison, DeWeaver covertly organized to pass legislation impacting juveniles in California's criminal legal system; was a culture writer for Easy Street Magazine; and cofounded Prison Renaissance, an organization centering incarcerated voices and incarcerated leadership. DeWeaver draws on these experiences to interrogate the central premise of reform efforts, including prisoner rehabilitation programs, arguing that they demand self-abnegation, entrench white supremacy, and ignore the role of structural oppression. 
   
   
   
  With lucid, urgent prose, DeWeaver intervenes in contemporary debates on criminal justice and racial justice efforts with his eye-opening discussion of the tools we need to end white supremacy—both within and outside the carceral setting. For readers of Mariame Kaba, Susan Burton, and Derecka Purnell, Ghost in the Criminal Justice Machine adds a sharp and unique perspective to the growing discourse on racial justice, incarceration, and abolition.
