First and most important, here are the books that have impacted me the most on Black/White relations lately:
- Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race - The New Jim Crow (I think you read this already) - Just Mercy - Between the World and Me
For Bringing Down the House, the guy who wrote the book didn't actually have anything to do with the gambling scheme; he just chronicled it for the book. But according to the book, all of the players knew full well what they were doing and were pretty gung-ho about it.
Thank goodness that Rollin's head injury wasn't bad! It could have been horrible. A volunteer at Poised once told me of someone she knew who fell down the stairs "and was never the same again". As for the author of the book and Marcia, there's just no way to say for sure since she never says. But I definitely felt that all the lesbian signs were there. :)
Yeah, god, Scientology sucks. I wish someday its leaders would get what they deserve.

I hope you get lots of reading time someday!
