Publisher's Summary

Following the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin, three women - Alicia Garza, Opal Tometi, and Patrisse Khan-Cullors - came together to form an active response to the systemic racism causing the deaths of so many African-Americans.

They simply said: Black Lives Matter; and for that, they were labelled terrorists. In this empowering account of survival, strength, and resilience, Patrisse Khan-Cullors and award-winning author and journalist Asha Bandele recount the personal story that led Patrisse to become a founder of Black Lives Matter, seeking to end the culture that declares Black life expendable.

Like the era-defining movement she helped create, this rallying cry demands you do not avert your attention. With a foreword by Angela Davis.

everyone needs to read this

she writes with passion and honesty about the brutality black people in America face throughout their lives. And about the love, hope and power of collective, grass roots organising and support for change. She is an amazing woman. Truly inspirational
