A gripping tale of personal revolution by a man who went from Crips co-founder to Nobel Peace Prize nominee, author, and antigang activist When his L.A. neighborhood was threatened by gangbangers, Stanley Tookie Williams and a friend formed the Crips, but what began as protection became worse than the original gangs. From deadly street fights with their rivals to drive-by shootings and stealing cars, the Crips' influence -- and Tookie's reputation -- began to spread across L.A. Soon he was regularly under police surveillance, and, as a result, was arrested often, though always released because the charges did not stick. But in 1981, Tookie was convicted of murdering four people and was sent to death row at San Quentin in Marin County, California. Tookie maintained his innocence and began to work in earnest to prevent others from following his path. Whether he was creating nationwide peace protocols, discouraging adolescents from joining gangs, or writing books, Tookie worked tirelessly for the rest of his life to end gang violence. Even after his death, his legacy continues, supported by such individuals as Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Snoop Dogg, Jesse Jackson, and many more. This posthumous edition of Blue Rage, Black Redemption features a foreword by Tavis Smiley and an epilogue by Barbara Becnel, which details not only the influence of Tookie's activism but also her eyewitness account of his December 2005 execution, and the inquest that followed. By turns frightening and enlightening, Blue Rage, Black Redemption is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and an invaluable lesson in how rage can be turned into redemption.Binding Type: Paperback

The Excellence of Motion Preserved
Style: Full Synthetic High Mileage, Size: 1 qt (Pack of 1), Configuration: 5W-30
In the pursuit of the ideal, where reason governs and the forms of all things aspire to perfection, the Valvoline Full Synthetic High Mileage with MaxLife Technology 5W-30 Motor Oil presents itself as a manifestation of virtue within the mechanical realm. It is not merely oil, but a substance designed with foresight, sustaining the engine as the soul sustains the body. The viscosity is measured, neither excessive nor deficient, allowing parts to move in harmonious accord, reducing friction and preserving integrity.
One observes that engines treated with this oil respond with steadiness and endurance, as if guided by a rational principle, minimizing wear and extending life in a manner that reflects the pursuit of the Good. I grant it five stars, for it exemplifies a balance between strength and refinement, a practical embodiment of foresight, wisdom, and care—ensuring that motion, that vital energy, continues undisturbed, much as a well-ordered soul achieves its fullest expression through the contemplation of virtue.
