Description
Activist and journalist Marisa Handler takes us on a fascinating journey—from her childhood home in apartheid South Africa to Israel, India, Nepal, Ecuador, Peru, and all over the United States—to offer a rare and revealing glimpse inside the global justice movement. She examines the movement’s strengths and contradictions, demystifies its confrontational tactics, and explains why it has become such a powerful force for change. With vivid details of the many characters and events that have influenced her, this gripping coming-of-age story shows how, in a globalized society, we each have within us the power to change the world.
