M is for Movement

From the author of A is for Activist, here is the story of a child born at the dawn of a social movement. At first the protests were in small villages and at universities. But then they spread. People drew sustenance from other social movements in other countries. And then the unthinkable happened.

The protagonist in this fictionalized children’s memoir by Innosanto Nagara is a witness and a participant, fearful sometimes, brave sometimes too, and when things change, this child who is now an adult is as surprised as anyone.

"A powerful narrative that encourages long-term awareness, work, sacrifice, and patience in order to effect change for all people. Inspiring." —Kirkus Reviews
