Robert Love and David Walker's Number 13

https://www.facebook.com/pages/NUMBER-13/347290674744

In the devastated wasteland of a collapsed society, one young boy searches for the answers surrounding his existence. Known only as Number 13, the boy has no memory of who he is or where he comes from. He also possesses unexplained powers that make him the most
dangerous weapon in the world. To some, Number 13 is a friend and a protector, to others, he is a valuable tool that holds limitless power. Number 13 becomes caught in a conflict between good and evil, salvation and damnation, and in the process he will discover the truth about himself.

NOBODY KNOWS MY NAME BY JAMES BALDWIN

http://www.amazon.com/dp/0679744738/?tag=vp314-20

Told with Baldwin's characteristically unflinching honesty, this collection of illuminating, deeply felt essays examines topics ranging from race relations in the United States to the role of the writer in society, and offers personal accounts of Richard Wright, Norman Mailer and other writers.

SOUL ON ICE BY ELDRIDGE CLEAVER

http://www.amazon.com/dp/038533379X/?tag=vp314-20

The now-classic memoir that shocked, outraged, and ultimately changed the way America looked at the civil rights movement and the black experience.

By turns shocking and lyrical, unblinking and raw, the searingly honest memoirs of Eldridge Cleaver are a testament to his unique place in American history. Cleaver writes in Soul on Ice, "I'm perfectly aware that I'm in prison, that I'm a Negro, that I've been a rapist, and that I have a Higher Uneducation." What Cleaver shows us, on the pages of this now classic autobiography, is how much he was a man

At eighteen, George Jackson was convicted of stealing seventy dollars from a gas station and was sentenced from one year to life.
