Bitter Dawn
Author: Dan Newling
Publisher: Jonathan Ball Publishers
ISBN: 1868426254
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
The man standing next to me was a tall, good-looking man of Indian heritage in his early 30s. Shrien Dewani seemed calm and composed. The only outward signs of trauma I could notice were the two large, dark purple bags under each of his eyes. I offered him a seat. He accepted and we started to talk. Over the following 45 minutes, the British businessman told me about the murder of his wife, Anni, 40 hours earlier.' So begins Bitter Dawn, Dan Newling's journalistic investigation into a crime that ignited firestorms of outrage across the world. At first the story seems simple enough: Shrien Dewani, a young British businessman on honeymoon in Cape Town, arranges the murder of his newlywed bride in a clumsy hijacking. But a closer examination of the crime reveals some uncomfortable truths. Over four years - from the moment he interviewed Shrien Dewani just two days after Anni's death, to the eve of the Briton's 2014 murder trial - Newling has painstakingly pieced together the many pieces of this puzzle. Containing facts hitherto unpublished, interviews with witnesses until now unheard from, and the fruits of deep journalistic research into the South Africa's criminal justice system, Bitter Dawn lifts the lid on a crime far more complex than the media has so far assumed. While it may be difficult to find anyone who believes Shrien Dewani to be innocent, the facts Newling has uncovered provide compelling reasons to question the establishment story. Bitter Dawn is a gripping work of investigative journalism which reveals some worrying truths, not only about a bloody murder, but about its investigation, South African politics, global media ethics and how we all, as news-consumers, respond to stories when boundaries between right and wrong, between innocent and guilty, and between truth and lies, become blurred.

Part Truths
Author: Jacklena Bentley
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1525571877
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 130
Book Description
Dawn thinks that her mother, Irene, hates her. She is not sure why, or what she did, but this is the only explanation that she can think of for how her mother has always treated her... And so begins the story of a child’s life with a mother who hides in closets to get away from her children, walks around with a weapon in her hand to instill fear, and turns a blind eye to the sexual abuse of her daughters. But the abuse and dysfunction doesn’t end there, as Dawn also must deal with her brother’s mental illness, her sister’s bitterness, and her father’s inability to protect her. Even as an adult, Dawn struggles to defend herself from a mother who so jealously withholds her father from her that she is willing to break up her daughter’s marriage so his attention will fall elsewhere. But as Dawn slowly learns to protect herself and put up boundaries, she is faced with the most difficult challenge of all—having to walk away from a mentally ill son so he can reach his rock bottom and finally find help. Both gripping and disturbing, Part Truths unflinchingly shows the dark side of abuse and mental illness. Yet it is also inspirational, as despite everything, Dawn ultimately learns to love herself and reclaim her strength, dignity, and own voice.

The Record of Murders and Outrages
Author: William A. Blair
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469663465
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
After the Civil War's end, reports surged of violence by Southern whites against Union troops and Black men, women, and children. While some in Washington, D.C., sought to downplay the growing evidence of atrocities, in September 1866, Freedmen's Bureau commissioner O. O. Howard requested that assistant commissioners in the readmitted states compile reports of "murders and outrages" to catalog the extent of violence, to prove that the reports of a peaceful South were wrong, and to argue in Congress for the necessity of martial law. What ensued was one of the most fascinating and least understood fights of the Reconstruction era—a political and analytical fight over information and its validity, with implications that dealt in life and death. Here William A. Blair takes the full measure of the bureau's attempt to document and deploy hard information about the reality of the violence that Black communities endured in the wake of Emancipation. Blair uses the accounts of far-flung Freedmen's Bureau agents to ask questions about the early days of Reconstruction, which are surprisingly resonant with the present day: How do you prove something happened in a highly partisan atmosphere where the credibility of information is constantly challenged? And what form should that information take to be considered as fact?
