The Essential Second Amendment Guide by Wayne LaPierre - Paperback USED
Only 1 left in stockThe Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights guarantees your right to keep and bear arms. You have a right to own a gun for defense of family and home. You have a right to own a gun for hunting, shooting or collecting. You have the right to own a gun to break the chains of tyranny. Our Founding Fathers said it. Our Constitution guarantees it. Our courts affirm it. Our laws protect it. Yet there are politicians, bureaucrats and members of the media elite who want to trample our freedoms. They say we can't be trusted to own a firearm. They say our freedoms are the cause of crime. They say that the government has the right to determine whether we need to own a gun. They say there is no human right to self-defense. They portray law-abiding gun owners as the members of some lunatic fringe. They attack us in the press and call us second-class citizens. This indispensable book contains battle-tested arguments and an arsenal of facts, figures and anecdotes that freedom advocates can use every day.

The Rights of Employees and Union Members : The ACLU Guide, 2nd Edition - Paperback USED
Only 1 left in stockThis revised and updated edition of The Rights of Employees and Union Members is actually two books in one, combining two earlier ACLU handbooks, one dealing with the rights of employees and the other with the rights of union members. Utilizing a simple question-and-answer format, the authors examine in detail such topics as the employment relationship, compensation and benefits, discrimination (including discrimination based on race, ethnicity, sex, religion, age, disability, AIDS, sexual orientation, and veteran and reservist status), the union workplace, and workplace protections. The handbook provides particularly relevant information regarding the hiring process, the right to privacy, and disability discrimination and includes appendixes on federal antireprisal statutes and legal resources for employees.
Written for every working American, this book sets forth individual rights under present law and offers suggestions on how citizens can take steps to protect themselves. Like others in the series, this volume was developed in the hope that Americans, informed of their rights, will be encouraged to exercise them.

Telling Stories Out of Court: Narratives about Women and Workplace Discrimination by Ruth O'Brien, editor - Paperback Nonfiction
Only 1 left in stock"Few of the countless real-life stories of workplace discrimination suffered by men and women every day are ever told publicly. This book boldly and eloquently rights that wrong, going where no plaintiff testimony could ever dare because these stories are often too raw, honest, ambiguous, and nuanced to be told in court or reported in a newspaper."―from the Foreword by Liza Featherstone
Telling Stories out of Court reaches readers on both an intellectual and an emotional level, helping them to think about, feel, and share the experiences of women who have faced sexism and discrimination at work. It focuses on how the federal courts interpreted Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Offering insights that law texts alone cannot, the short stories collected here―all but two written for this volume―help readers concentrate on the emotional content of the experience with less emphasis on the particulars of the law.
Grouped into thematic parts titled "In Their Proper Place," "Unfair Treatment," "Sexual Harassment," and "Hidden Obstacles," the narratives are combined with interpretive commentary and legal analysis that anchor the book by revealing the impact this revolutionary law had on women in the workplace.At the same time, the stories succeed on their own terms as compelling works of fiction, from "LaKeesha's Job Interview," in which a woman's ambition to move from welfare to work faces an ironic obstacle, to "Plato, Again," in which a woman undergoing treatment for cancer finds her career crumble under her, to "Vacation Days," which takes the reader inside the daily routine of a nanny who works at the whim of her employer.
