Sunday, August 16 from 5 pm - 7 pm The Lona Gallery 176 W Crogran St. Lawrenceville, GA 30046 Dark Justice, written by Diane Cooper, is a dark, gritty, and heartbreakingly honest account of one woman’s journey through the Federal Penitentiary system. While continuously proclaiming her innocence, Cooper is manipulated by both the judicial system and street code honor to play by the rules, which leads to a forty year prison sentence. Written in the author’s own street-wise voice, Dark Justice is the first book of a series that walks the reader through the painful experience of leaving children and family behind to begin a journey that will change her life forever. Based on actual events. Join the author for refreshments and Q&A. Ms. Cooper will be reading a selection of her work at this event.

I'm currently reading Uncle Tom or New Negro? edited by Rebecca Carroll, for leisure. Seeking detailed thoughts, invoked feelings and views on this book. Oh and I have just joined the site, not sure if my wording is proper.

My thoughts on Washington, I haven't read the book either, come from the President of the College the Narrator/Nameless Character in Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man attended. They also derive from the BTW vs DuBois discussion. In my mind BTW toed the line in becoming the first Cointelpro spy. He delivered info to the dominating class, but worked within the system doing the work to benefit his people. I hope that makes sense.
