Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Benjamin 'Vibe' Hayes built his reputation on being the kind of man people trusted.Once a radical organizer and now a respected Atlanta public figure, Benjamin has learned how to survive inside the institutions he once challenged. His nonprofit has influence. His name opens doors. His image appears beside developers, donors, and civic leaders promising a better future for the communities that made him.Then a celebration ends in blood.What begins with an attack at a downtown gala leads Benjamin into a network of manipulated rent records, surveillance data, relocation programs, and redevelopment deals designed to turn vulnerable residents into numbers on a vacancy report. Families who paid their rent are suddenly delinquent. Private information becomes leverage. And a neighborhood's future depends on paperwork almost no one was ever supposed to see.The deeper Benjamin investigates, the harder it becomes to separate the people exploiting the system from the people who genuinely believe they are saving the city-and the harder it becomes to deny his own role in helping that system earn the community's trust.With an attorney demanding evidence, a whistleblower risking everything, residents fighting to remain in their homes, and powerful interests racing toward a final certification deadline, Benjamin must decide what his reputation is actually worth when protecting it means abandoning the people who gave it to him.Set against Atlanta's accelerating transformation and a buried history stretching back through coastal Georgia, THE GOOD CITIZEN is a literary crime thriller about power, redevelopment, memory, institutional violence, and the dangerous distance between being considered a good citizen and doing what is right.THE GOOD CITIZEN is the first novel in the WARDOGS series by Ken Oswald.…

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - THE MEN WHO STAYED BEHINDA WARDOGS Novel A Prequel to The Good CitizenEverybody wants credit for saving the day. Not everybody stays to do the work.Benjamin 'Vibe' Hayes knows how to run a kitchen, command a crew, and make chaos look like competence. What he hasn't learned is the difference between being the man who gets things done and being the man everybody thinks did.In the fall of 2020, with southwest Louisiana devastated by Hurricanes Laura and Delta, Ben trades the politics of film-set catering for a disaster-relief assignment. The work is exhausting, the money is uncertain, and the people depending on him are real. But when the official records begin claiming hundreds more meals than his crew actually served, Ben discovers that disaster recovery can be just as profitable for the people controlling the paperwork as it is necessary for those doing the work.An opportunity overseas offers a fresh start.Alongside Ronaldinho Batista, a sharp-tongued military veteran and communications specialist, Ben travels to Venezuela for what should be a straightforward equipment-recovery assignment. Instead, they encounter falsified industrial records, missing workers, powerful intermediaries, and an engineer determined to protect evidence that could expose something much larger.As professional ambition gives way to personal loyalty, Ben finds himself drawn to a man whose integrity challenges everything he's built his reputation on. And every compromise Ben makes to preserve his image brings someone else closer to danger.Because when the truth finally comes due, somebody always pays.Set against the aftermath of real hurricanes and the dangerous machinery of private contracting, The Men Who Stayed Behind is an adult literary-political thriller about brotherhood, ambition, intimacy, institutional corruption, and the people whose sacrifices rarely make the official record.Before The Good Citizen, there was the man who still believed being seen meant being worthy.The WARDOGS story begins here. Can be read as a standalone novel.…

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. What if institutions do not merely observe racial difference-but help manufacture the consequences they later present as evidence of it?In The Quantum Race Theory: How Systems Measure Difference and Manufacture Inequality, Ken Oswald R. Vann, Jr. examines how schools, courts, hospitals, employers, housing markets, police departments, and government agencies transform human difference into measurable inequality. Through categories, records, baselines, policies, and repeated institutional decisions, provisional judgments become permanent facts-and those facts follow people from one system into the next.Drawing carefully from relational quantum mechanics, Vann uses concepts such as measurement, basis choice, entanglement, sequence, and observation to build a new framework for understanding race. He does not argue that people are particles or that physics proves racism. Instead, quantum theory supplies a disciplined set of questions: Who is measuring? Through which apparatus? Against whose baseline? What information survives the interaction? Who receives the consequence?Blending cultural criticism, history, accessible science, legal analysis, humor, and personal narrative, The Quantum Race Theory follows the students, patients, workers, homeowners, defendants, and families living inside the machinery of supposedly neutral institutions. It exposes how responsibility can be distributed across countless ordinary decisions until nobody appears guilty-even while the harm remains unmistakable.Provocative without sacrificing precision, this book challenges readers to stop treating inequality as a natural condition and begin examining the systems that repeatedly produce it.Institutions do not simply record reality. They participate in making the reality their records describe. The Quantum Race Theory examines how courts, hospitals, employers, housing markets, police departments, and government agencies transform racial difference into durable inequality using concepts from quantum physics.
