The Purpose of Power: How We Come Together When We Fall Apart by Alicia Garza

challenging informative inspiring

5.0

I read this for the Bad Bitch Book Club Let's Get Political reading group. I know very little about politics and movements, and didn't know who Alicia was before reading this. I am SO glad this book came into my life. I learned so much about movements, particularly Black Lives Matter: how they start, how it's so much more than a hash tag, and how much passion and planning goes into launching a movement. 

Alicia is so inspiring. After reading this, I can't wait to figure out how to get more involved with a movement(s) for something I am passionate about and learn how to get involved with making more of a difference.
