In "Discovering the Truth - The Murder of Martin Luther King, Jr.," a diverse cohort of scholars and historians delves into the intricacies surrounding the assassination of one of the most monumental figures in American civil rights history. The book adopts a multidisciplinary approach, intertwining political analysis, sociological perspectives, and forensic investigation to unravel the complex motives behind King's murder and the subsequent controversies that enveloped it. Written in a clear yet evocative literary style, it situates King's assassination within a broader context of systemic racism, political violence, and the struggle for social justice, offering readers both a historical narrative and critical reflections on civil rights activism then and now. The contributors to this volume come from various academic backgrounds, ranging from history to political science, each bringing unique insights and perspectives shaped by their own experiences and research. Their exploration of King's legacy, coupled with the socio-political climate of the 1960s, stems from a profound commitment to understanding the enduring impact of his work and the forces that sought to silence him. Many of these scholars have spent years studying civil rights movements, drawing on archival sources and oral histories that reveal the multifaceted repercussions of King's life and death. This book is essential reading for anyone seeking to comprehend the monumental implications of Martin Luther King Jr.'s life and tragic assassination. By engaging with the differing viewpoints and historical analyses provided, readers will not only confront the past but also reflect on its persistent relevance in contemporary discussions about race, justice, and activism.

    Although the Declaration of Independence is now considered one of the most important political documents in history, the men that drafted it did not initially favor such a move at the start of the American Revolution. Despite its assumption of governing duties, the Second Continental Congress never intended, at least initially, to become the governing body of a new nation. Instead, it merely hoped to transform the relationship between Britain and her colonies to allow for greater self-government on their side of the Atlantic. Separation between the two was rarely favored, and this initial sentiment coalesced into the Olive Branch Petition, which sought a reasonable motion of reconciliation between George III and the colonies. It was drafted by one of Virginia’s delegates, Thomas Jefferson.  
    	By April of 1776, talk had heated up concerning independence, and a consensus was quickly growing in Congress. However, one problem was in the way: did the Congress have the authority to declare independence for its 13 member colonies? The process was riddled with confusion across the colonies. independence. And of course, simply declaring independence did not mean the British were going to grant it, and during that time, things were looking quite dire for the cause. After the siege of Boston forced the British to evacuate that city in March 1776, Continental Army commander George Washington suspected that the British would move by sea to New York City, the next logical target in an attempt to end a colonial insurrection. He thus rushed his army south to defend the city. 
    In the summer of 1776, the British conducted the largest amphibious expedition in North America’s history at the time, landing over 20,000 troops on Long Island. They easily captured Staten Island, which Washington was incapable of defending without a proper navy. Washington’s army attempted to fight, but Washington was badly outmaneuvered, and his army was nearly cut off from escape.

    New York Times bestselling author Sam Harris is one of the most famous popular thinkers of our day. With a YouTube podcast channel Making Sense of almost half a million subscribers, and almost three million views of his debates with Jordan Peterson. The author of several books, and podcaster, Sam can be described for British audiences as Russell Brand with a neurology doctorate.
    Being Sam Harris challenges the central ideas of Sam's works. Ranging through philosophy, logic, history, religion, the science of neuro-imaging, and more.
    Sam is accused of being a one trick charlatan. A disingenuous showman who uses the technique of Singularity to generate a kaleidoscope of logically flawed and socially dangerous ideas. Despite their neo-liberal hippy patina, Sam's recipes for life demand suicide for the Self. All that remains is the autodidactic, synthesist benevolence of being Sam Harris.

    The plan works even if you have $0 to your name and currently make minimum wage. 
    If you have nothing to your name and currently only make minimum wage, it can take up to 20 years. 
    Otherwise, if you are already partway there, it will happen faster for you. 
    It might sound sensational, but at the end of the day, setting yourself up for retirement is just a matter of simple math and consistent long-term self-discipline. It is as extremely easy, completely realistic, and actually unavoidable as it is for an obese person who is 200 lbs overweight to lose that weight and keep it off by following a certain diet plan with a certain calorie budget. 
    This is not a get-rich-quick scheme. This is not the crash diet of financial plans. This is a long-term plan that uses the power of consistency, self-discipline, and exponential growth to generate seemingly incredible results over the long-term. But they only seem incredible. Ultimately, it is simple math, and the real power comes simply from you having the self-discipline to follow the plan consistently year after year.
