Description:A moving, politically charged memoir of surviving trauma and of the power of activism from MSNBC legal analyst, professor, civil rights lawyer and former New York City Mayoral candidate Maya WileyBorn in a country that has repeatedly traumatized her and her loved ones, Maya Wiley grew up in a household that prioritized activism, hope, and resilience above all else. This attitude landed her father on President Nixon’s enemies list as her mother organized third-party political platforms. Still, they modeled hope for their children. In the decades since, she has borne witness as presidents and political figures used racism and fascism to gain power, and as cities have again and again elected white men, effectively shutting out people of color and women. Time after time she has been forced to confront death, injustice, and indifference—just as her Civil Rights activist parents did before her. After a mayoral race that further exposed America's deep divisions, Wiley is ready to share her story and that of her parents: one of passion, possibility, and compassion in the face of fear and injustice. She also digs into how her previous struggles informed her platform, driving her to represent those who have similarly felt voiceless or ignored. In facing and sharing her own past, Wiley shows readers how they too can remain optimistic in the face of adversity.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
