My new book RIGHTEOUS TROUBLEMAKERS: Untold Stories of the Social Justice Movement in America is available everywhere books are sold on 1/11/22!!!!
“The Reverend Al Sharpton shines a light on everyday people called to do extraordinary things, including:
-Pauli Murray, whose early work informed Thurgood Marshall’s legal argument for Brown v. Board of Education
-Claudette Colvin, who refused to give up her seat on a segregated bus months before Rosa Parks did the same
-Gwen Carr, whose private pain in losing her son Eric Garner stoked her public activism against police brutality
-Sharpton also gives his personal take on more widely known individuals (Emmett Till, Michael Brown, Breonna Taylor, Trayvon Martin, Tamir Rice, and more) revealing overlooked details, historical connections, and a perspective informed by years of working on the front line of the social justice movement”- repost @harpercollins
