    About this ebook

    Have you noticed the seemingly endless abuses carried out by police on minorities of color?

    Are you someone who has suffered from police profiling?

    If you are, or you are simply a concerned citizen who is opposed to the tide of police brutality, police corruption and violence inflicted on ordinary citizens, then This Must Stop Now: Mr. Officer is a book you should read.

    Reflecting on cases involving crooked cops and the incidents which have sown the seeds of discord amongst essentially poor communities of color within the United States, this book examines things like:

    • Police aggression
    • Profiling people because of color
    • Abuses of authority
    • Excessive use
    • Dirty cops
    • Corruption within law enforcement
    • And much more…

    Abuse of power, wherever it stems from, is wrong. With national campaigns to focus on the issues, such as Black Lives Matter, these abuses are increasingly brought into the spotlight and to the attention of the general public.

    This book was written in part to assist in highlighting the problems and to call others to action in a bid to halt the wave of brutality that we see on a daily basis.

    Get a copy of This Must Stop Now: Mr. Officer and play your own small part in making sure that the corruption and abuses we see in law enforcement are stopped now and forever!

    "Every book I write goes into uncharted territories others won't pen."   About me: I'm Eric Reese, born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I've worked as a community organizer, educator, graphic design, human services and a number of other fields.  I'm the recipient of the first Mayoral Scholarship of Philadelphia (1993), the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers Human Relations Award (1989) and a few other awards and scholarships nationally and globally.  I've always had an interest in writing especially from the old-journal-in-the-morning days as many of my books today reflect my experiences here and abroad.  When I have time for myself, I love traveling, mediating and researching new marketing tactics. One of my weirdest experiences was when I once lived on a top roof in an apartment building in Beirut for a few weeks until I found somewhere to stay during the war in Afghanistan. Every night, I'd listen to BBC radio and hear the chaos while not be detected.  Some say that my lively and energetic character has made me many friends across the world. I really hope so; with many friends come many enemies. In the future, I'd love to own a large home somewhere in a quiet peaceful spacious area where my neighbors are not close but not far. Now I live wherever is called home at the time in hopes of achieving my goal one of these days. You can contact me at feekness@gmail.com
