MahoganyBooks looks forward to you joining us for this virtual launch event.  As this topic especially important to us, a purchase of the book is required to attend. 
MahoganyBooks Front Row is thrilled to welcome activist and journalist, Shaun King as he discusses,  Make Change: How to Fight Injustice, Dismantle Systemic Oppression, and Own Our Future.

The Book:  As a leader of the Black Lives Matter movement, Shaun King has become one of the most recognizable and powerful voices on the front lines of civil rights in our time. 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.
