Testimonial 2 by Rev. M. G. Hayes brings hope, inspiration, and a Christian message that encourages old and young alike to realize that God is true to his word. Whether you are a seasoned hand with faith and spirituality or a brand-new member of the youth ministry, Testimonial 2 can uplift your heart, speak to your soul and spirit, and teach you the Bible’s wisdom through modern storytelling. Rev. Hayes’s work begins with thirty-eight Christian stories; some are tales of triumph, some are stories of loss and missed opportunity, and still others are just good old reality checks for the soul. But all of the stories contained herein remind us that no matter how immune we may think we are to misfortune, God never promised sun without rain or laughter without pain. Faith is the assured expectation of things hoped for. In Testimonial 2, Hayes plays out the true definition of Christian faith in everyday parables that teach timeless lessons and speak eternal truths everyone could understand.

In this bold book, A. Naomi Paik grapples with the history of U.S. prison camps that have confined people outside the boundaries of legal and civil rights. Removed from the social and political communities that would guarantee fundamental legal protections, these detainees are effectively rightless, stripped of the right even to have rights. Rightless people thus expose an essential paradox: while the United States purports to champion inalienable rights at home and internationally, it has built its global power in part by creating a regime of imprisonment that places certain populations perceived as threats beyond rights. The United States' status as the guardian of rights coincides with, indeed depends on, its creation of rightlessness. Yet rightless people are not silent. Drawing from an expansive testimonial archive of legal proceedings, truth commission records, poetry, and experimental video, Paik shows how rightless people use their imprisonment to protest U.S. state violence. She examines demands for redress by Japanese Americans interned during World War II, testimonies of HIV-positive Haitian refugees detained at Guantanamo in the early 1990s, and appeals by Guantanamo's enemy combatants from the War on Terror. In doing so, she reveals a powerful ongoing contest over the nature and meaning of the law, over civil liberties and global human rights, and over the power of the state in people's lives.
