Half Price Books Presents Shaun King
Join Half Price Books for an event with activist and journalist Shaun King. King will reflect on the events that made him one of the most prominent social justice leaders of our time and lays out a clear action plan for you to join the fight. He will discuss his new book, Make Change: How to Fight Injustice, Dismantle Systemic Oppression, and Own Our Future.
ABOUT THE BOOK In Make Change, King offers an inspiring look at the moments that have shaped his life and considers the ways social movements can grow and evolve in this hyper-connected era. He shares stories from his efforts leading the Raise the Age campaign and his work fighting police brutality, while providing a roadmap for how to stay sane, safe, and motivated even in the worst of political climates. By turns infuriating, inspiring, and educational, Make Change will resonate with those who believe that America can and must do better.
