Divine Collision: An African Boy, an American Lawyer, and Their Remarkable Battle for Freedom
Los Angeles lawyer and law professor, Jim Gash, tells the amazing true story of how, after a series of God-orchestrated events, he finds himself in the heart of Africa defending a courageous Ugandan boy languishing in prison and wrongfully accused of two separate murders. Ultimately, their unlikely friendship and unrelenting persistence reforms Uganda's criminal justice system, leaving a lasting impact on hundreds of thousands of lives and unearthing a friendship that supersedes circumstance, culture and the walls we often hide behind.

Guide to Convention of the States

President Obama has done more to ignite interest in the U.S. Constitution than any other president in recent memory—though not in a good way. President “I have a pen and a phone” has repeatedly tried to bypass the constitutional process, encouraging millions of Americans to ask if there is a way to rein him in and restore the balance of federalism.

And they’ve found one in Article V of the Constitution.
