  There is something about the number 3.    
   
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
   
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
   
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.

  Black Power Black Lawyer - My...

  Nkechi Taifa

  Black Power, Black Lawyer (BPBL) is a memoir that stitches suspense, calamity, humor, and wit into a tapestry of history, politics, law, culture, and romance. Both serious and scandalous, Nkechi Taifa’s audacious quest for justice is a gripping commentary on life, the perennial nature of human resistance to oppression, and her steadfast embrace of what is just. Sometimes raw, sometimes abrasive, sometimes passionate, Taifa offers her truth unapologetically and unfiltered, with honesty and authenticity. Her memoir tells a rarely heard quest: the search for resisters and rebels and the pursuit of issues on the cutting edge. Many memoirs chronicle iconic leaders of the civil rights era, yet few capture the transformative journeys of ordinary people coming of age during the tumultuous Black Power era. 
  BPBL offers a uniquely personal glimpse from an insider’s perspective into lesser-known chapters of history—from vivid stories of the more militant aspects of the Black liberation struggle to the craziness of congressional “sausage-making.” Journey with Taifa as she bears witness to ancestors, people, and moments that shaped her identity. From sitting on the lap of a brother providing security in the Black Panther Party office; to getting arrested just after graduating from law school; to being accused of being an FBI agent; to representing the lead defendant in the Capitol Bombing case; to being detained at an airport five months pregnant as an alleged enemy of the state; to winning a six-figure settlement in a landmark employment discrimination case against a major news network; to helping spark change to the infamous crack cocaine laws—her quest for justice reigned supreme. 
  This memoir is sure to awaken, inform, provoke, and inspire you to either join—or continue—“The Struggle” in both the suites and the streets! 
  Visit BlackPowerBlackLawyer.com for exciting updates since the memoir’s 2020 publication, particularly people who are now free!
