A suicidal father looks to an older neighbor―and the Cookie Monster―for salvation and sanctuary as his life begins to unravel. A man seeking to save his estranged, drug-addicted brother from the city's underbelly confronts his own mortality. A chess match between a girl and her father turns into a master class about life, self-realization, and pride: "Now hold on little girl. . . . Chess is like real life. The white pieces go first so they got an advantage over the black pieces."These are just a few glimpses into the world of the residents of the fictional town of Cross River, Maryland, a largely black settlement founded in 1807 after the only successful slave revolt in the United States. Raw, edgy, and unrelenting yet infused with forgiveness, redemption, and humor, the stories in this collection explore characters suffering the quiet tragedies of everyday life and fighting for survival.In Insurrections, Rion Amilcar Scott's lyrical prose authentically portrays individuals growing up and growing old in an African American community. Writing with a delivery and dialect that are intense and unapologetically current, Scott presents characters who dare to make their own choices―choices of kindness or cruelty―in the depths of darkness and hopelessness. Although Cross River's residents may be halted or deterred in their search for fulfillment, their spirits remain resilient―always evolving and constantly moving.

Lucas embarks on a cross-country journey for what's supposed to be a simple vaccine delivery mission, but which quickly devolves into a battle to survive when he and his team become embroiled in a conspiracy so massive it will change the fate of America.

"At last, a commentary that dares to imagine Mark was addressed to us! Jennings' social, economical, political, and personal commentary matches the nature of Mark's own efforts to shock readers out of their religious and cultural frames of reference and to embrace the radical realm of justice ushered in by Jesus' proclamation of the reign of God. Ted Jennings uses every Markan story as an opportunity to preach the radical gospel of God's international dominion of justice. His commentary allows Mark to shake us out of our specious efforts to secure ourselves and to confront us with the radical call to live for the poor, oppressed, and the marginalized. Preachers, students, biblical scholars and theologians will want to read this book." - David M. Rhoads, Professor of New Testament Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago

Accounts of slave uprisings have been a largely neglected phase of American history. News of such events was consistently suppressed in earlier times by masters for fear this information might inspire other slaves to revolt. Sources documenting such events were scarce; locating them and obtaining access to them were tremendous tasks. This objective and fully documented work describes early insurrectionary movements, rebellions at sea, and the Negro's role in the American Revolution. Also discussed in detail are a number of notable uprisings, among them Gabriel Prosser's unsuccessful revolt in 1800; Denmark Vesey's insurrection in 1822; and Nat Turner's rebellion in 1831. Profiles of black leaders and white sympathizers are also recounted, as are insurgencies that occurred during the Civil War.
