Why I Wrote WWR

We wrote this book to lay out a path toward social activism for teens (and adults, too, of course) in hopes of empowering a generation to create the world they want to see. There seemed like no time to spare: a whole generation of people were getting fed up and walking away. Our country can't afford to lose them and their fresh ideas and powerful voices!

Our book has 128 concrete, well-researched actions to get teens involved in the issues they care about, as well as actions that set the groundwork for keeping young people tuned in even in these cynical times. As a former high school teacher, I love the thought of the book inspiring the creative, bright, optimistic qualities of teens.
