Publisher Description A moving, politically-charged memoir of surviving trauma and the power of activism from MSNBC legal analyst, professor, civil rights lawyer and former New York City Mayoral candidate Maya Wiley.Born in a country that has repeatedly traumatized her and her loved ones, Maya Wiley grew up in a household that prioritized activism, hope, and resilience above all else. This attitude landed her father on President Nixons enemies list as her mother organized third-party political platforms. Still, they modeled hope for their children. In the decades since, she has borne witness as presidents and political figures used racism and fascism to gain power, and as cities have again and again elected white men, effectively shutting out people of color and women from having a political voice. As a result, she has been forced, time after time, to confront death, injustice, and indifference-just as her Civil Rights activist parents did before her. After a mayoral race that further exposed our countrys deep divisions, Maya is ready to share her story and that of her parents: one of passion, possibility, and compassion in the face of fear and injustice. She takes readers through her unconventional upbringing, her father George Wileys tragic death and the resulting trauma, as well as how her experiences spoke to racial, gender, and class identity. Against this painful backdrop, Maya charts her journey of coming into herself and finding hope in a dire political landscape. She also digs into how her previous struggles informed her platform, driving her to represent those who have similarly felt voiceless or ignored. In facing and sharing her own past, Maya shows readers how they too can remain optimistic in the face of adversity. Author Biography Maya Wiley is President and CEO of The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights and a former legal analyst on MSNBC.

Likewise, Mayas performance in the mayors race, her strong social media, her extensive experience on television, and the compelling narrative laid out in her proposal, ensure her book will get tremendous coverage upon publication.She serves as the Joseph L. Rash Jr. Chair of Civil & Human Rights at the University of the District of Columbia School of Law.
