What The Reviewers Say
Alicia Garza offers a smart, thoughtful, introspective and unflinchingly self-reflective narrative of how she became a movement organizer and what she has learned along the way.
Alicia Garza has filled its pages with equal measures of wisdom, comfort and irrefutable facts that intertwine to create a book that belongs in the hands of anyone that feels like a tiny cog in the colossal machine that is racial injustice and white supremacy.
She provides a vision of successful movements, elaborates on the challenges of organizing, and explores biases and blind spots that can befall movements.
... a moving and impassioned account of her in-the-trenches experience as a social justice warrior.
