Be a revolution : how everyday people are fighting oppression and changing the world--and how you can, too / Ijeoma Oluo.

Oluo, Ijeoma, (author.).

Summary:

"With [this book], ... Oluo aims to show how people across America are working to create real positive change in our structures. Looking at many of our most powerful systems--like education, media, labor, health, housing, policing, and more--she highlights what people are doing to create change for intersectional racial equity. She also illustrates various ways in which the reader can find entryways into change in these same areas, or can bring some of this important work being done elsewhere to where they live." --Provided by publisher.
