When the FBI turned an Irish mobster into an informant, they corrupted the entire judicial system and sanctioned the worst crime spree Boston has ever seen. This is the true story behind the major motion picture. James "Whitey" Bulger became one of the most ruthless gangsters in US history, and all because of an unholy deal he made with a childhood friend. John Connolly a rising star in the Boston FBI office, offered Bulger protection in return for helping the Feds eliminate Boston's Italian mafia. But no one offered Boston protection from Whitey Bulger, who, in a blizzard of gangland killings, took over the city's drug trade. Whitey's deal with Connolly's FBI spiraled out of control to become the biggest informant scandal in FBI history. Black Mass is a New York Times and Boston Globe bestseller, written by two former reporters who were on the case from the beginning. It is an epic story of violence, double-cross, and corruption at the center of which are the black hearts of two old friends whose lives unfolded in the darkness of permanent midnight.

Our conventional view of history and human progress is wrong. It is founded on a pernicious myth of an acheivable utopia that in the last century alone caused the murder of tens of millions. In Black Mass John Gray tears down the religious, political and secular beliefs that we insist are fundamental to the human project and shows us how a misplaced faith in our ability to improve the world has actually made it far worse.

Indeed, it is a story of a life search. Born and brought up in a traditional Catholic family, it is just a look into the various paths I have trodden in my search to rediscover the actual path of Jesus. Rooted in Christian faith and theology, the book is an expression of my basic position with the poor and the marginalized sections of the people in their struggle for liberation. In this process, God, faith, religion, morality, society, and family—all are to be seen with a perspective, different from the traditional. This book is an attempt to this effect.

The Black Mass is a book about demonic worship and possession. It is the lamentation of a man driven by the harshness of the times to enter into the folds of befouled magic and spells so that Abdul Nemrec could descend into the foul pits of the Iggigy and the Annunakis, where he learned things that no one else could. But the madness did not stop in the past; old demons have ways of rising up. This is true for in Harlem, New York City, there are several high school students who are friends and who also are into the infernal arts of black magic and the occult. Soon they will find a bookstore whose proprietor has acquired a copy of the damnable arcane text known as the Necronomicon. Once this book is in their hands, they will seek to open the portals of history and summon both beasts and gods upon the earth. They will take everyone around them to the threshold of the gates of madness and beyond.

This vintage book deals with the subject of Satanism and demonology, looking in particular at the Black Mass and incubi and succubi. A Black Mass refers to a ritual wherein the Traditional Latin Mass of the Catholic Church is inverted, popularised in the nineteenth century by French literature in such books as Jules Michelet's “Satanism and Witchcraft” and Joris-Karl Huysmans's “Là-bas”; while succubi and incubi are demons that prey upon sleeping victims by engaging in sexual activity with them while they are sleeping. “The Black Mass - Of the Loves of the Incubi and Succubi” will appeal to those with an interest in the occult and is not to be missed by fans and collectors of Summers' seminal work. Augustus Montague Summers (1880 – 1948) was an English clergyman and author most famous for his studies on vampires, witches and werewolves—all of which he believed to be very much real. He also wrote the first English translation of the infamous 15th-century witch hunter's manual, the “Malleus Maleficarum”, in 1928. Other notable works by this author include: “A Popular History of Witchcraft” (1937), “Witchcraft and Black Magic” (1946), and “The Physical Phenomena of Mysticism” (1947). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

In the United States, Black men are almost six times more likely to be imprisoned than white men. This disproportionate impact can be traced back to slavery, Jim Crow laws, and the criminalization of Black people into the modern day. With growing awareness about unfair treatment in the justice system, more and more people are calling for change. Read more about the history and causes of mass incarceration and how activists are reforming and rethinking justice. Read WokeTM Books are created in partnership with Cicely Lewis, the Read Woke librarian. Inspired by a belief that knowledge is power, Read Woke Books seek to amplify the voices of people of the global majority (people who are of African, Arab, Asian, and Latin American descent and identify as not white), provide information about groups that have been disenfranchised, share perspectives of people who have been underrepresented or oppressed, challenge social norms and disrupt the status quo, and encourage readers to take action in their community.

The great central act of Christian worship is the Mass, a Sacrifice which can be offered to God alone, and the climax of the sabbat orgies is the horror of the black mass, a sacrifice of mockery, impiety, and blasphemy which is offered to the Devil. Satanists today often meet with the celebration of the black mass as their main object, and it is indeed the culmination and to use a term of the schools the very quiddity of devil-worship and the cult of hell. In detail the black mass imitates, so to speak and foully parodies with every circumstance of crapulous obscenity and contempt the Sacrifice of Calvary. The black mass today is sometimes celebrated in a cellar, but Satanists have become so audacious and so strong in evil that the largest room in their houses is known to be permanently fitted up for these abominable mysteries. In one case the room is draped with black hangings and the windows are always shuttered with curtains drawn.

Winner of the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction Longlisted for the National Book Award One of the New York Times Book Review's 10 Best Books of 2017 Former public defender James Forman, Jr. is a leading critic of mass incarceration and its disproportionate impact on people of colour. In Locking Up Our Own, he seeks to understand the war on crime that began in the 1970s and why it was supported by many African American leaders in the nation's urban centres. Forman shows us that the first substantial cohort of black mayors, judges and police chiefs took office amid a surge in crime and drug addiction. Many prominent black officials, including Washington, DC mayor Marion Barry and federal prosecutor Eric Holder, feared that the gains of the civil rights movement were being undermined by lawlessness - and thus embraced tough-on-crime measures, including longer sentences and aggressive police tactics. In the face of skyrocketing murder rates and the proliferation of open-air drug markets, they believed they had no choice. But the policies they adopted would have devastating consequences for residents of poor black neighbourhoods. A former public defender, Forman tells riveting stories of politicians, community activists, police officers, defendants and crime victims. He writes with compassion about individuals trapped in terrible dilemmas - from the men and women he represented in court to officials struggling to respond to a public safety emergency. Locking Up Our Own enriches our understanding of why American society became so punitive and offers important lessons to anyone concerned about the future of race and the criminal justice system.
