Über diesen Titel
The remarkable stories of 3 young women activists of color fighting for some of today’s most pressing movements of defunding the police, environmental justice, and arts education.
Girls of color have always been on the front lines of the fight for equal rights—to vote, to learn, to live—even when they are the last to benefit from the outcomes of their work. In Don’t Wait, journalist Sonali Kohli follows 3 teens navigating the complexities of growing up while working to make their communities safer, healthier places.
-Nalleli lives across the street from an active oil well in South Los Angeles. She and her mother take on an oil company and become environmental justice activists.
-Kahlila, following the murder of George Floyd and looking to help fight back, becomes involved with the Black Lives Matter movement in Los Angeles and fights to defund school police in one of the largest school police forces in the nation.
-Sonia, an accomplished singer grappling with finding a creative outlet in the pandemic, strives to increase access to arts education in schools across California.
Don’t Wait highlights what propelled the young women into their activism, to their experiences organizing, and incorporates Q&As with important lessons from activists who have led the way. Tracing their journeys from teens to adults, Don’t Wait reflects on the powerful lessons they’ve learned in their activism while building movements in their communities that will continue to live on as they move forward.
Kritikerstimmen
“The book is a well of inspiration . . . An essential purchase for California libraries and for budding activists looking for inspiration and guidance.”
—Booklist
“Kohli’s curiosity, compassion, and strong journalistic instincts combine to create a narrative voice that’s both engaging and insightful. Her writing not only honors her subjects’ strength but also demystifies the process of creating community change . . . Empowering portraits of a diverse set of young women who have changed their worlds.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Prepare to be inspired.”
—Sara Saedi, author of Americanized
“An eminently readable resource for those not only looking to be inspired but also seeking tangible pathways to reaching their own extraordinary.”
—Christina Hammonds Reed, author of The Black Kids
“A refreshing reminder that you are never too young to use your voice.”
—Brandy Colbert, author of Black Birds in the Sky
“What divides and unites us has always been imagined through story. Sonali Kohli offers us three real-life stories that speak to both division and unity and the tools to make the most of them.”
—Anton Treuer, author of Everything You Wanted to Know About Indians but Were Afraid to Ask and Where Wolves Don’t Die
“Sonali Kohli’s Don’t Wait: Three Girls Who Fought for Change and Won is a riveting account of teenagers Nalleli, Kahlila, and Sonia and their fearless battles to remake the world as it should be. Too often, we read about activists who are fully formed adults, but here we have the rare opportunity to witness them in the process: being adolescents, becoming freedom fighters, and embarking on journeys to self that teach us all new meanings of sacrifice, justice, and hope.”
