Justice 101: Know the System. Know Your Rights. Know Your Power. (Digital Ebook — Instant Download)

Nobody hands you a manual for the justice system. This is the manual.

Justice 101 is the plain-language guide to how American justice actually works — written by a veteran educator with more than 20 years of experience making complicated systems make sense. No legalese. No lectures. Just the architecture of courts, rights, due process, democracy, and economic justice, explained one floor at a time — with receipts.

Inside this volume:

- The four faces of justice — and how to spot which one is being dodged in any news story

- The rights script every household should rehearse (it takes two minutes to learn)

- How the courts really work: why 90%+ of convictions never see a trial

- Criminal vs. civil court — and the trap built into the difference

- Due process, equal protection, and the ordinary people who built the floor of your rights

- Voting rights history in one loop: expansion, backlash, repeat — and how to bulletproof your ballot

- The Unpaid Debt: the four documented receipts of who actually got compensated when slavery ended

- The accountability toolbox: records requests, public meetings, formal complaints, and organizing

Plus a complete action section: a 30-day Justice Action Plan, printable worksheets and checklists, discussion questions for book clubs and congregations, a glossary, and a full directory of official sources.

Format: Print-ready PDF ebook (US Letter), instant digital download. Read on any device or print at home.

Every chapter ends with what you can do about it. Because knowledge without action is trivia.
