It is policy. Traumatic memory is removed from those deemed unable or unwilling to carry it; victims, perpetrators, institutions alike. What is forgotten does not disappear. It is transferred. The burden is absorbed by others positioned to bear the psychic remainder, allowing families, corporations, and governments to function without visible consequence. Over time, conscience becomes infrastructure. Responsibility becomes ambient. SCAPEGOAT follows Mara, a professional vessel for outsourced trauma. Her job is to carry what others are permitted to leave behind. She does it well. Too well. When an irreversible transfer binds itself to her nervous system, the system’s core assumption is tested, not by rebellion, exposure, or catastrophic failure, but by competence. The machinery works exactly as designed. That is the danger. Across three movements - CLEAN, DISTRIBUTION, and REMAINDER - the trilogy traces a moral progression rather than a traditional rise in action. The first explores the arguments used to justify the system’s creation. The second follows those decisions as they scale outward into policy, dependence, and normalization. The final movement confronts what remains when nothing can be further transferred, outsourced, or explained away. Refusing redemption arcs, clean reversals, or comforting epilogues, SCAPEGOAT is not a cautionary tale about technology gone wrong. It is a work of speculative fiction about systems that function exactly as intended, and the human cost of surviving inside them. This omnibus edition gathers the complete trilogy in the form it was designed to take: one continuous narrative, one accumulating pressure, and one unresolved moral weight that lingers long after the final page.

This book is about an intellectual fraud, one that has become part of legal doctrine that has greatly influenced decisions all the way up to the United States Supreme Court. The "efficient market hypothesis" (EMH), born from the Random Walk theory, started out as an honest attempt to improve insights into how financial markets work, but eventually became almost a religion that every financial economist had to buy into, or risk professional crucifixion. The EMH began over a half century ago. It posits that share prices reflect all available market information, and that it is impossible to consistently outperform the market. This theory dominated research in the academic financial community from the outset, and has continued to do so for decades. Meanwhile, the evidence for above-average profit-making opportunities in the markets has been unfairly suppressed. Written for practitioners in the business, finance and legal industries, this book outlines the major issues that gave rise to the fraud, focusing on the role of statistics in the rise of what the authors call the "New Finance." It details the developments and results of the exclusion of other theories from efficient markets research and highlights the problems arising from a dogmatic adherence to EMH.

"Well after slavery was abolished, its legacy of violence left deep wounds on African Americans' bodies, minds, and lives. For many victims and witnesses of the assaults, rapes, murders, nightrides, lynchings, and other bloody acts that followed, the suffering this violence engendered was at once too painful to put into words yet too horrible to suppress. Despite the trauma it could incur, many African Americans opted to publicize their experiences by testifying about the violence they endured and witnessed." "In this evocative and deeply moving history, Kidada Williams examines African Americans' testimonies about racial violence. By using both oral and print culture to testify about violence, victims and witnesses hoped they would be able to graphically disseminate enough knowledge about its occurrence that federal officials and the American people would be inspired bear witness to thier suffering and support their demands for justice. In the process of testifying, these people created a vernacular history of the violence they endured and witnessed, as well as the identities that grew from the experience of violence. This history fostered an oppositional consciousness to racial violence that inspired African Americans to form and support campaigns to end violence. The resulting crusades against racial violence became one of the political training grounds for the civil rights movement." -- Book Cover.
