Locked Up, But Not Locked Down
You never know when it could happen to you. Supreme Design Publishing continues our mission of mentally preparing the Urban Community for the potholes on the road to success. Authors Ahmariah Jackson and I Atomic Seven mentally condition the reader for one of the most dehumanizaing psychological processes known to man: incarceration. They offer true stories, unwritten rules, personal anecdotes and guidelines for managing, all learned on their own tumultuous journeys through the correctional system. First timers and seasoned prisoners alike can learn not only what to expect of the system, but how to keep as much sanity and dignity as possible in such inhumane conditions. The book not only has the power to scare its reader straight, but also has the knowledge to empower readers to do the time without letting the time do you.
Poems for a Barfly
While tending bar at one of Atlanta's distinguished eateries, the author set down his notebook. A guest, enjoying dinner and wine, picked up the book and laboriously thumbed through the dog-eared pages. She finished the entirety of the notebook in one setting. The author was amazed and inspired. If one sitting at the bar; among the chatter and clamor, could enjoy these poems, then anyone could. Soon thereafter, Poems For A Barfly was born. These poems call upon a vast array of inspirations: the Black condition, the eternal questions of love and the transitory nature of life. It is a collection of snapshots; the artists' goal is to capture a moment, and all its beautiful ugliness, with hopes that something universal can be found. Herein lies a collection of poems spanning multiple decades, lifetimes and realities.

Vogliamo la libertà
We Want Freedom è l’autobiografia politica di Mumia Abu-Jamal, attivista, giornalista radiofonico e, per molti anni, responsabile dell’Informazione per la sezione di Philadelphia delle Black Panther. La militanza all’interno dell’organizzazione rivoluzionaria afro-americana e la sua instancabile opera di denuncia nei confronti della corruzione di politici e poliziotti locali, che portò Abu-Jamal a essere considerato la “voce dei senza voce”, attirarono ben presto le attenzioni dell’FBI e del COINTELPRO. Abu-Jamal era considerato dalle autorità “un soggetto da sorvegliare e internare in caso d’allerta nazionale” e proprio per questo diventa estremamente complesso decifr...

The Other Slavery
NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST | WINNER OF THE BANCROFT PRIZE. A landmark history—the sweeping story of the enslavement of tens of thousands of Indians across America, from the time of the conquistadors up to the early twentieth century. Since the time of Columbus, Indian slavery was illegal in much of the American continent. Yet, as Andrés Reséndez illuminates in his myth-shattering The Other Slavery, it was practiced for centuries as an open secret. There was no abolitionist movement to protect the tens of thousands of Natives who were kidnapped and enslaved by the conquistadors. Reséndez builds the incisive case that it was mass slavery—more than epidemics—that decimated Indian pop...
