THE BOOK: Letters From Young Activists

About Me

BUY THE BOOK: www.lettersfromyoungactivists.orgMeet the bold new generation of activists. Aged ten to thirty-one, these diverse authors are helping remake the world.In letters addressed to their parents, to past generations, to each other, to the youth of tomorrow and to their future selves, the authors articulate their vision for the world as they work towards racial, economic, gender, environmental and global justice.As the editors write in their introduction: “From globalization to the war on terrorism and beyond, our generation is impelled to action in the midst of a rapidly changing and unique political moment….Our challenge, and yours, is to live our lives in a way that does not make a mockery of our values.
