Paperback. Condition: Good. When I was seventeen years old, I was charged with attempted murder. It was a crime I did not commit; in fact, I wasn't even in the room when it happened. But I was soon implicated as a conspirator, and from that moment on, my life changed forever. I should have known that it was only a matter of time before either myself or someone I cared about would be hurt by living in Jena. White people stayed on one side of town, and black people stayed on the other. If you didn't follow these unwritten rules, then someone was going to get hurt. But I was an optimist kid, and all I cared about was hanging out with my friends, being good to my mom, and playing ball. I didn't understand at the time that there were people in the world that would attempt to ruin a black man's reputation, or even take his life, just to prove a point. Eventually I had no choice but to leave my hometown of Jena. I moved to Dallas and discovered a whole new life. The people were progressive and educated, and I was accepted. However, even as I began to build a new life for myself, the attempted murder charge and ensuing court dates continued as the victim and his lawyer continued to pursue a conviction against me and five other black men, who became known as the Jena 6. Now that I'm a few years older and can look back and reflect on the whole situation, I can see that there were egos involved, mixed with a sense of entitlement on behalf of the victim and his family. I don't blame them anymore for what happened to me during those years. I wasn't perfect myself. But mostly I can see now that ignorance breeds hate, and the only antidote is forgiveness. I would not be the man I am today without having gone through this legal battle. I saw the good in people, and I saw the bad. And I learned that even if the opportunities we have in life are not equal, it doesn't mean that we can ever stop fighting for equality. It taught me to question authority, to stand up for what I believe in, and above all to fight to expel ignorance. I'm proud to say that I graduated college and have started my own business. Now that I no longer have to keep looking behind me to prove my innocence, I can focus on the future and life outside of being a Jena 6. The future looks bright, indeed.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Now You're Talking! Do you want to be bulletproof at work, secure in your relationship, and content in your own skin? If so, it's more important than ever to be aware of what your body is saying to the outside world. Unfortunately, most of what you've heard from other body language experts is wrong, and, as a result, your actions may be hurting, not helping, you.   With sass and a keen eye, media favorite Janine Driver teaches you the skills she used every day to stay alive during her fifteen years as a body-language expert at the ATF. Janine's 7-day plan and her 7-second solutions teach you dozens of body language fixes to turn any interpersonal situation to your advantage. She reveals methods here that other experts refuse to share with the public, and she debunks major myths other experts swear are fact:  Giving more eye contact is key when you're trying to impress someone. Not necessarily true. It's actually more important where you point your belly button. This small body shift communicates true interest more powerfully than constant eye contact. The "steeple" hand gesture will give you the upper hand during negotiations and business meetings. Wrong. Driver has seen this overbearing gesture backfire more often than not. Instead, she suggests two new steeples that give you power without making you seem overly aggressive: the Basketball Steeple and the A-OK Two-Fingered Steeple. Happy people command power and attention by smiling just before they meet new people. Studies have shown that people who do this are viewed as Beta Leaders. Alpha leaders smile once they shake your hand and hear your name.    At a time when every advantage counts--and first impressions matter more than ever--this is the book to help you really get your message across.…

In this intimate, beautifully crafted collection, Driver writes with disarming charm and candor about her bohemian upbringing between England and Barbados; her post-university travails and triumphs--from being the only student in her acting school not taken on by an agent to being discovered at a rave in a muddy field in the English countryside; shooting to fame in one of the most influential films of the 1990s and being nominated for an Academy Award; and finding the true light of her life, her son.
