Описание: This is the story of a Southern White boy growing up in segregated Mobile and his struggle to escape. In Part One the boy, a newly minted ACLU lawyer in Memphis, encounters racism while seeking to obtain justice for a Black youth beaten by police after Dr. King’s assassination in 1968. When threats against his family become oppressive, he flees to the North hoping to carry on his quest for justice. Part Two chronicles his attempts in Massachusetts to address issues of the disenfranchised, poor, people of color, gays, and the mentally challenged. In doing so, he confronts a North that when stripped of liberal patina is as steeped in racism as the South. This memoir is about that boy’s journey away from the society in which he grew up and his attempt to atone for guilt by leaving Memphis before his young Black client obtains justice.

Описание:
In his memoir, Alvin Ziontz reflects on his more than thirty years representing Indian tribes, from a time when Indian law was little known through landmark battles that upheld tribal sovereignty. He discusses the growth and maturation of tribal government and the underlying tensions between Indian society and the non-Indian world. A Lawyer in Indian Country presents vignettes of reservation life and recounts some of the memorable legal cases that illustrate the challenges faced by individual Indians and tribes.
As the senior attorney arguing U.S. v. Washington, Ziontz was a party to the historic 1974 Boldt decision that affirmed the Pacific Northwest tribes' treaty fishing rights, with ramifications for tribal rights nationwide. His work took him to reservations in Montana, Wyoming, and Minnesota, as well as Washington and Alaska, and he describes not only the work of a tribal attorney but also his personal entry into the life of Indian country.
Ziontz continued to fight for tribal rights into the late 1990s, as the Makah tribe of Washington sought to resume its traditional whale hunts. Throughout his book, Ziontz traces his own path through this public history - one man's pursuit of a life built around the principles of integrity and justice.
Описание: The core question of this book: how a great lawyer who comes to represent important causes, emerges out of the racist, paternalistic, and self-perpetuating establishment of rural Georgia in the 1950s? What about Tommy Malone led him to take on the power structure in his community and begin representing people who were injured against prominent doctors and hospitals?
Описание: What does a pro-life lawyer have to say about abortion law? What are the costs of abortion for mothers, minorities, and women? Does abortion target the poor and disabled? Is the abortion industry connected to organized crime, including sex trafficking?Attorney Matthew S. Thomas explains it all in easy-to-understand terms, with full legal and academic citations for those doing research. Using case after case and statistic after statistic, attorney Thomas, proves that not only was the Roe v. Wade case (which legalized abortion in all fifty states) a stunningly poor decision by the Supreme Court, but that its impact on American society has been devastating.The sources used in this book are not only reliable, but are often from liberal publications such as the New York Times, NPR, and NBC News (or are direct quotes from Supreme Court cases). As such, the reader can be confident that it will be hard for Democrats and leftists to simply dismiss the arguments contained herein, at least without dismissing information their own favorite media publishers. If you are a conservative or Republican, we hope this book gives you the tools to make your case going forward Some of the interesting topics explored in this book include:1.A look at the legal justification for Roe v. Wade.2.How abortion impacts society's most vulnerable.3.The long-term psychological damage of abortion on mothers and fathers.4.A Biblical prospective on abortion for Christians/Catholics.5.Substituting the word "abortion" for "slavery" in an Abraham Lincoln speech.Thanks to all our loyal readers - Upbeat Conservative Publications
