Baldwin James I Am Not Your Negro
In June 1979, the writer and civil rights activist James Baldwin embarked on a project to tell the story of America through the lives of three of his murdered friends: Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. He died before it could be completed. In his documentary film, I Am Not Your Negro, Raoul Peck imagines the book Baldwin never wrote, using his original words to create a radical, powerful and poetic work on race in the United States - then, and today.

Reshetun A. If These Bodies Could Talk: True Tales of a Medical Examiner
What happens to your body after you die? Ask forensic medical examiner Alexey Reshetun. For more than twenty years he has spent every day with the newly dead, conducting autopsies and searching for the cause — or causes — of their death. In layman’s terms — and with some dark humor from time to time — he explains what forensic medical examiners do, how they dier from pathologists, how an autopsy is carried out, and what happens to organs after they are removed.Along the way he gives a brief overview of the history of forensic medicine and procedural basics — from examination of a body at the scene of death to exhumation and examination months after burial. He shares his own stories from his practice — how he knew the old woman in the village was murdered in her bed, or how he and his team discovered that the man who keeled over on his porch was not killed by a heart attack but by a stray bullet shot by a neighbor down the street.Death is a topic we often try to avoid, but Reshetun makes it as fascinating as life. And, in the process, he sheds new light on an old truth: our lives — and deaths — are in our own hands. After reading this book, you might drop some of your bad habits — and take up some good ones.
