"By turns lyrical reflection and practical handbook, On the Other Side of Freedom reveals the mind and motivations of a young man who has risen to the fore of millennial activism through study, discipline, and conviction. His belief in a world that can be made better, one act at a time, powers his narratives and opens up a view on the costs, consequences, and rewards of leading a movement." --Henry Louis Gates, Jr. "Mckesson and a core group of other activists have built the most formidable American protest movement of the 21st century to date" -- The New York Times "In this thoughtful collection of essays, activist and podcaster Mckesson reflects on what he's learned from protest, family upheaval, racial inequality, homophobia, community organizing, abuse, and love... Calmly but with conviction, he lays out a philosophy of future-oriented action... a welcoming, accessible, and inspiring entrance point to social justice work." -- Publishers Weekly (Most Anticipated Books of Fall 2018) "In this deeply felt debut, [Mckesson] combines memoir with discussions of race and violence in America, offering an inside view of the BLM movement... A compelling account of technology-powered protest." -- Kirkus Reviews, "By turns lyrical reflection and practical handbook, On the Other Side of Freedom reveals the mind and motivations of a young man who has risen to the fore of millennial activism through study, discipline, and conviction. His belief in a world that can be made better, one act at a time, powers his narratives and opens up a view on the costs, consequences, and rewards of leading a movement." --Henry Louis Gates, Jr. "Hope and insight and empathy spring from every page of On the Other Side of Freedom . DeRay McKesson cools our fears of the struggle, ever guiding us on how to struggle. He stares down the faces of bigotry and unfreedom and cynicism and doesn't flinch in writing out our marching orders toward freedom." --Ibram X. Kendi, National Book Award-winning author Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America "A poetic, passionate, and deeply personal book." -- The Washington Post "Mckesson and a core group of other activists have built the most formidable American protest movement of the 21st century to date." -- The New York Times "An inspiring reminder that hope is vital to any political change, and it's the driving force for any successful attempt at social justice." -- Esquire (Best Nonfiction Books of 2018) "Riveting and affecting . . . written with astounding poetry, vulnerability, and flair. Mckesson is a gifted, pointed storyteller." -- The Village Voice "In this thoughtful collection of essays, activist and podcaster Mckesson reflects on what he's learned from protest, family upheaval, racial inequality, homophobia, community organizing, abuse, and love. . . . A welcoming, accessible, and inspiring entrance point to social justice work." -- Publishers Weekly (Most Anticipated Books of Fall 2018) "Mckesson breaks down the physical and emotional labor of activism and the continued importance of telling truth to power . . . each theme as potent and nuanced as the next. An excellent selection for socially conscious readers, young activists, and researchers interested in the cross-section between activism and social media." --Library Journal (starred review) "A compelling account of technology-powered protest." -- Kirkus Reviews, "By turns lyrical reflection and practical handbook, On the Other Side of Freedom reveals the mind and motivations of a young man who has risen to the fore of millennial activism through study, discipline, and conviction.

Synopsis
" On the Other Side of Freedom reveals the mind and motivations of a young man who has risen to the fore of millennial activism through study, discipline, and conviction. His belief in a world that can be made better, one act at a time, powers his narratives and opens up a view on the costs, consequences, and rewards of leading a movement."--Henry Louis Gates, Jr. Named one of the best books of the year by NPR and Esquire Finalist for the Lambda Literary Award From the internationally recognized civil rights activist/organizer and host of the podcast Pod Save the People , a meditation on resistance, justice, and freedom, and an intimate portrait of a movement from the front lines. In August 2014, twenty-nine-year-old activist DeRay Mckesson stood with hundreds of others on the streets of Ferguson, Missouri, to push a message of justice and accountability. These protests, and others like them in cities across the country, resulted in the birth of the Black Lives Matter movement. Now, in his first book, Mckesson lays down the intellectual, pragmatic, and political framework for a new liberation movement. Continuing a conversation about activism, resistance, and justice that embraces our nation's complex history, he dissects how deliberate oppression persists, how racial injustice strips our lives of promise, and how technology has added a new dimension to mass action and social change. He argues that our best efforts to combat injustice have been stunted by the belief that racism's wounds are history, and suggests that intellectual purity has curtailed optimistic realism. The book offers a new framework and language for understanding the nature of oppression. With it, we can begin charting a course to dismantle the obvious and subtle structures that limit freedom. Honest, courageous, and imaginative, On the Other Side of Freedom is a work brimming with hope. Drawing from his own experiences as an activist, organizer, educator, and public official, Mckesson exhorts all Americans to work to dismantle the legacy of racism and to imagine the best of what is possible. Honoring the voices of a new generation of activists, On the Other Side of Freedom is a visionary's call to take responsibility for imagining, and then building, the world we want to live in.

    The book was as described and snuggly packed. I appreciate when ARC’s are made available online, I don’t go out of my way to find them but they’re fun to have. Thanks for listing! Rob was very communicative and shipped the next morning, I know that’s important to some folks. Great shop, will be checking again for future books.
