We Who Believe in Freedom: Activism and the Struggle for Social Justice

Review\n"We Who Believe in Freedom: A Memoir of Activism and the Struggle for Social Justice" offers readers an extraordinary and adventurous opportunity to journey Green's happiness and heartaches, her triumphs and defeats, health and illness, loyalty and betrayal, courage and fear, the bitter and sweet - all of which have assisted and sustained the maturation of one of America's notable social justice advocates. Green's soul journey truths include organizing, educating and empowering disenfranchised residents of Albany's underdeveloped communities regarding the power of the vote, assisting them to shred the shackles of fear that froze their ability to think independently and critically. Readers witness her civil rights and human rights work to eliminate covert apartheid in New York State's capital and overt apartheid in South Africa. 
Yusef Salaam, Freelance Writer 
New York Beacon\nDr. Alice Green's memoir provides a vivid and gripping portrait of the injustices faced by many as a result of racism, the prison industrial complex, and police brutality. Readers will be inspired and saddened by her persistence in the face of many obstacles, her description of politics and civic unrest in Albany, and her portrayals of the many black people who have been victims of social, economic, and political injustice. 
Brenda M. Greene, Founder and Executive Director of the Center for Black Literature and Professor of English at Medgar Evers College of the City University of New York 
Dr. Alice Green's narrative tells about the evolution of an activist---and better yet, it is a well-researched, fascinating personal story of historical events, told within the broad context of racism in America, juxtaposed with insights about Albany's long history of dealing with racial issues in community policing and the criminal justice system. This is a good story loaded with interesting facts and anecdotes. It is a personal account of Alice's long life's journey that has concluded with her belief in "walking the walk" as an activist. 
Barbara Delaney-Author of Paths to the Past, Hudson River Valley etc. and Follansbee Pond Secrets\nA must-read, compelling memoir from one of the giants in Albany's racial justice community. Dr. Green takes the reader on her own inspiring journey as a warrior for justice, while masterfully tying Albany's past to its present, providing a critical and under-told account of racism and discrimination - and the fight against it - in New York's capital. 
Massarah Mikati, Journalist\n"We Who Believe in Freedom: Activism and the Struggle for Social Justice" is an inspirational book that exposes readers to weighty topics such as police abuse and accountability, criminal justice and prison reform, and political abuse of power in Albany, New York. In this book - part memoir and part history - Alice P. Green demonstrates these topics through her life experiences as a life-long advocate, highlighting the impact they have had on Albany's black communities since the early days of enslavement, up to the present day where we still have so many racial and criminal justice issues before us. This remarkable literary masterpiece serves as a blueprint for other unwavering activists to emulate in their quest for freedom from the injustices in their cities and throughout the country.

Alice and Judy (AL &amp; JUDE) started Just Breathe after several years of Bible studies, women's conferences, personal joys and tragedies, and conversations with women across the nation and internationally. These interactions revealed a deep desire in them to help women recapture and reconnect with their God-given dreams; to help them dream, or begin to dream again. Collectively, they have over forty years of experience in the fields of academics, Christian education, medical, music, and Christian ministry, serving in both the corporate and religious arenas. They have widely traveled both nationally and internationally. Alice and Judy share the same burning desire to minister to women as they "go along their way." Listening to and sharing their stories is just one component of Just Breathe. Believing that God has put them on this earth to connect, their friendship can be likened to that of Ruth and Naomi or David and Jonathan. God truly does give us friends to help us along this journey we call LIFE.

Prostitution, gambling, moonshine and drugs could all be found behind closed the closed doors of Danville, VA from 1919 to 1933. During Prohibition, the Law and Order League," of Danville was, of course, "dry," but the city's mayor was personally was known to be "personally wet," and in 1911 citizens were shocked to discover that the police chief was a fugitive from a murder conviction in Georgia. That same period saw lynching, murders and the wreck of the Old '97. HP authors Frankie Bailey and Alice Green will examine the law and disorder of Prohibition era Danville with Wicked Danville: Crime, Justice, and Prohibition in a Southside Virginia City."
