WORDS SHATTER INJUSTICE
When They Call You a Terrorist
Words Shatter InjusticeFrom one of the co-founders of the Black Lives Matter movement comes a poetic memoir and reflection on humanity. Necessary and timely, Patrisse Cullors’ story, When They Call You a Terrorist: A Black Lives Matter Memoir,” asks us to remember that protest in the interest of the most vulnerable comes from love. Leaders of the Black Lives Matter movement have been called terrorists, a threat to America, but they are bravely leading the charge towards imperative change.
