I recommend “The Black Maria VIII” by Girmay, Brown’s “Duplex” that begins “I begin with love”; and “Ice Storm,” by Hayden.

‘The police come in and taken him to the jail in the Black Maria. He still locked up.’

Ferguson’s Gang, as they called themselves, were masked, anonymous activists who went by codenames such as Bill Stickers, Granny the Throttler, Black Maria and Red Biddy.
