    A Prison Diary, Hörbuch, Digital, 332min
    DAY 5, MONDAY 23 JULY 2001, 5.53 AM The sun is shining through the bars of my window on what must be a glorious summer day. I've been incarcerated in a cell five paces by three for 12 and a half hours, and will not be let out again until midday; 18 and a half hours of solitary confinement. There is a child of 17 in the cell below me who has been charged with shoplifting, his first offence, not even convicted, and he is being locked up for 18 and a half hours, unable to speak to anyone. This is Great Britain in the 21st century, not Turkey, not Nigeria, not Kosovo, but Britain. On Thursday 19 July 2001, after a perjury trial lasting seven weeks, Jeffrey Archer was sentenced to four years in jail. He was to spend the first 22 days and 14 hours in HMP Belmarsh, a double A-Category high-security prison in South London, which houses some of Britain's most violent criminals. This is the author's daily record of the time he spent there. Language: English. Narrator: Andrew Sachs. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/macm/000290/bk_macm_000290_sample.mp3.

    A General Betrayal: The Sufferings and Trials of Carlotta Frances Roddey , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 97min
    This is the true story a woman swindled out of a fortune by her famous ex-Confederate-general husband, Philip Dale Roddey. You will find this story nowhere else in material about Roddey but it was splashed across the nation in newspapers in 1874 and followed closely by the New York Times. From the date of their marriage until her trials for grand larceny and perjury, Carlotta Frances (Shotwell) Roddey believed nearly everything her charming southern husband told her. Why wouldn't she? He was 20 years her senior, was friends with President Ulysses S. Grant, and loved to stay in the best hotels in New York and Washington. The well-invested legacy left by her father had made her rich and she didn't know the man who introduced her to everyone as his wife was a bigamist and adulterer. While pregnant, her life was turned upside-down. She was arrested, put on trial, and denied by Roddey. Here are the lurid details by Carlotta herself, with plenty of updated information about the players and the trials. Was she really as naive as she portrays herself in this book? Decide for yourself. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Brian V. Hunt, Claire Dayton. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/081904/bk_acx0_081904_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Injustice: Exposing the Racial Agenda of the Obama Justice Department , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 507min
    Justice is supposed to be blind, especially to race and politics. Yet as Department of Justice (DOJ) whistleblower J. Christian Adams divulges in his shocking exposé, Injustice, justice under the Obama administration is anything but blind. Here, Adams reveals the never-before-published truth about the corrupt, racist, and politicized inner workings of the Obama Justice Department, as well as the untold story of the DOJ’s corrupt handling of the New Black Panther voter intimidation case. As a former Department of Justice attorney in the civil rights division, Adams has witnessed firsthand how the DOJ is aggressively executing a racist and radical left-wing agenda through its policies and employees. After watching the DOJ continually turn a blind eye to voter fraud, blatant racism, and voter rights abuses, Adams finally blew the whistle during the New Black Panther case—a case that Adams brought to the DOJ’s attention and ultimately resigned over because of the corruption and perjury he witnessed leading up to and following the case’s orchestrated dismissal. Revealing unknown and startling examples of racism and corruption at the local, state, and federal level, Injustice exposes a Justice Department that is anything but just. ungekürzt.

    The Wilmington Ten: Violence, Injustice, and the Rise of Black Politics in the 1970s , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 532min
    In February 1971, racial tension surrounding school desegregation in Wilmington, North Carolina, culminated in four days of violence and skirmishes between white vigilantes and black residents. The turmoil resulted in two deaths, six injuries, more than $500,000 in damage, and the firebombing of a white-owned store before the National Guard restored uneasy peace. Despite glaring irregularities in the subsequent trial, 10 young persons were convicted of arson and conspiracy and then sentenced to a total of 282 years in prison. They became known internationally as the Wilmington Ten. A powerful movement arose within North Carolina and beyond to demand their freedom, and after several witnesses admitted to perjury, a federal appeals court, also citing prosecutorial misconduct, overturned the convictions in 1980. Kenneth Janken narrates the dramatic story of the Ten, connecting their story to a larger arc of Black Power and the transformation of post-civil rights-era political organizing. Grounded in extensive interviews, newly declassified government documents, and archival research, this book thoroughly examines the events of 1971 and the subsequent movement for justice that strongly influenced the wider African American freedom struggle. ungekürzt.

    Strange Justice: The Selling of Clarence Thomas , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1020min
    Now a New York Times best seller and a National Book Award finalist. Charged with racial, sexual, and political overtones, the confirmation of Clarence Thomas as a Supreme Court justice was one of the most divisive spectacles the country has ever seen. Anita Hill's accusation of sexual harassment by Thomas, and the attacks on her that were part of his high-placed supporters rebuttal, both shocked the nation and split it into two camps. One believed Hill was lying, the other believed that the man who ultimately took his place on the Supreme Court had committed perjury. In this brilliant, often shocking book, Jane Mayer and Jill Abramson, two of the nation's top investigative journalists, examine all aspects of this controversial case. They interview witnesses that the Judiciary Committee chose not to call and present documents never before made public. They detail the personal and professional pasts of both Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill and lay bare a campaign of lobbying, public relations, and character assassination fueled by conservative power at its most desperate. A gripping high-stakes drama, Strange Justice is not only a definitive account of the Clarence Thomas nomination hearings but is also a classic casebook of how the Washington game is played by those for whom winning is everything. ungekürzt.
