Paperback. Zustand: Good. Pressure: From FBI Fugitive to Freedom tells the story of Malik Wade, a San Francisco youth who evolved into a high-level nationwide drug dealer and landed on the FBI's wanted list. The book chronicles Malik's life growing up in inner-city San Francisco, his life in Canada when he was on the run from the FBI, his conviction and fourteen-year incarceration in federal prison, and his transformation and redemption after his release.This teaching guide, Release, primarily targets 15- to 24-year-old youth facing the same social challenges that Malik did as a teenager struggling to find his place in the world. While it's designed for transitional-age youth, a range of age groups will benefit. It uses hands-on, interactive activities designed to get readers to think about how they can avoid the pitfalls confronting young people living in challenged communities, particularly young men of color.This guide integrates Freire's pedagogical concepts of conscientization, dialogue, and praxis, as well as Bloom's taxonomy of learning in a series of lessons that focus on the seven core themes in the book or what Malik describes as The Seven Levels to Elevation.Malik entered the federal prison system an arrogant and selfish drug dealer who only cared about making money. He soon started to transform himself into a humble, educated, and enlightened man who wanted to help and heal others. Several years into his prison sentence, his desire to mentor and help those in need was solidified when he met a young man from Richmond, California, named Gino. Gino had an infamous reputation and was known on the street as a Young Gunner. Gino was serving five years on drug charges when the two met. Over the course of the next two years, Malik mentored Gino and helped him disconnect himself from his old friends and violent and unhealthy ways of thinking. His friendship with Gino is what ultimately propelled him to dedicate his life to teaching young people. Eventually, Malik committed himself to spending the remainder of his fourteen-year sentence vigorously educating himself so that he could help train and mentor more young men and women who, like Gino, come from challenged backgrounds.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The legendary FBI criminal profiler and international bestselling author of Mindhunter and The Killer Across the Table returns with this timely, relevant book that goes to the heart of extremism and domestic terrorism, examining in-depth his chilling pursuit of, and eventual prison confrontation with Joseph Paul Franklin, a White Nationalist serial killer and one of the most disturbing psychopaths he has ever encountered. Worshippers stream out of an Midwestern synagogue after sabbath services, unaware that only a hundred yards away, an expert marksman and  avowed racist, antisemite and member of the Ku Klux Klan, patiently awaits, his hunting rifle at the ready.   The October 8, 1977 shooting was a forerunner to the tragedies and divisiveness that plague us today. John Douglas, the FBI's pioneering, first full-time criminal profiler, hunted the shooter--a white supremacist named Joseph Paul Franklin, whose Nazi-inspired beliefs propelled a three-year reign of terror across the United States, targeting African Americans, Jews, and interracial couples. In addition, Franklin bombed the home of Jewish leader Morris Amitay, shot and paralyzed Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt, and seriously wounded civil rights leader Vernon Jordan. The fugitive supported his murderous spree robbing banks in five states, from Georgia to Ohio.  Douglas and his writing partner Mark Olshaker return to this disturbing case that reached the highest levels of the Bureau, which was fearful Franklin would become a presidential assassin--and haunted him for years to come as the threat of copycat domestic terrorist killers increasingly became a reality. Detailing the dogged pursuit of Franklin that employed profiling, psychology and meticulous detective work, Douglas and Olshaker relate how the case was a make-or-break test for the still-experimental behavioral science unit and revealed a new type of, determined, mission-driven serial killer whose only motivation was hate. A riveting, cautionary tale rooted in history that continues to echo today, The Killer's Shadow is a terrifying and essential exploration of the criminal personality  in the vile grip of extremism and what happens when rage-filled speech evolves into deadly action and hatred of the "other" is allowed full reign.  The Killer's Shadow includes an 8-page color photo insert.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In 1971, a skyjacker with a briefcase bomb demanded a $200,000 ransom and a parachute. Then he vanished out the jet's back door and became an instant legend. Now a determined citizen sleuth has assembled a forty-member cold case team, spearheaded by former FBI agents, to solve the mystery of D. B. Cooper. And after a five-year quest, they believe they have succeeded--with a fugitive at trail's end. The team's relentless investigation and final confrontation with the mystery man serve as the bookends in The Last Master Outlaw. The subject's astonishing life story as a daredevil fills the remaining chapters, the bulk of which comes from the heartwarming, gut-wrenching accounts of six of his women--two former wives; his only sister; a befriended college coed; a getaway gal he met up with during two more FBI escapes, both again involving planes; and a Hollywood producer who was also his cocaine-trade partner. Buckle your seatbelts as this Jekyll-and-Hyde ladies' man travels through five countries, utilizing more than a dozen identities, wigs, and fake mustaches while engaging in a half-dozen careers and raising three families. Then be a witness as the cornered chameleon is forced to face the truth in front of the cameras of a dogged cold case team, which was armed and ready for any eventuality.…
