Notă biografică

Tarana Burke has always been struck by a commitment to justice and equity. As the founder of the 'me too' movement and subsequent nonprofit, Burke works to dismantle the cycle of sexual violence and other systemic issues that disproportionately impact marginalized people. Tarana's passion for community organizing began in the late 1980s, when as a young girl she joined a youth development organization called 21st Century. Since then she has launched initiatives around issues of racial discrimination, housing inequality, and economic justice. Her work has connected a vast network of influential people, including much of Hollywood, the founder of the Women's March Tamika Mallory, leading intellectuals and authors like Ishmael Beah and Gloria Steinem. She was 2017 TIME Person of the Year and the winner of the 2019 Sydney Peace Prize, and has been the recipient of countless other accolades. She is the co-editor with Brené Brown of the instant New York Times bestseller You Are Your Best Thing.

Descriere

From the founder and activist behind one of the largest movements of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, the me too movement, comes a powerful and heartwarming memoir about empathy, hope and healing.

Recenzii

Searing. Powerful. Needed.
I will never stop thinking about this book.
Sometimes a single story can change the world. Unbound is one of those stories. Tarana's words are a testimony to liberation and love.
Burke sings a Black girl's song and Unbound stands alongside I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings and The Color Purple, as a coming of age story that is at once searingly painful, brilliant, and beautiful. Tarana Burke is known around the world for her activism and leadership. Now she will be known as an extraordinary writer.
Burke's Unbound is worthy of being considered next to I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings as one of those rare books that will unfold and welcome parts of us we thought we'd completely hid until the earth is gone. Unbound is the one we readers and writers have been waiting for.
An unforgettable page-turner of a life story rendered with endless grace and grit.
Intensely moving and unapologetically frank, Burke's fearless memoir will uplift and inspire the next generation of survivors, advocates, and truth-tellers.

'I will never stop being grateful for Tarana Burke's wisdom and courage - and I will never stop thinking about this book.' GLENNON DOYLE

Tarana Burke didn't always have the courage to say me too. As a child, she reeled from her sexual assault, believing she was responsible. Unable to confess what she thought of as her own sins for fear of shattering her family, her soul split in two. One side was the bright, intellectually curious Bronxite steeped in Black literature and power, and the other was the bad, shame-ridden girl. She tucked one away behind a wall of pain and anger, which seemed to work . . . until it didn't.

Tarana fought to reunite her fractured soul, through organising, pursuing justice and finding community. Here she shares her extensive work supporting and amplifying the power of Black and brown girls, and the devastating realisation that to truly help these girls, she needed to help that scared, ashamed child still within her. It was her experience caring for Heaven, Diamond, and countless others that gave her the courage to embrace her own pain.

Unbound is the story of an inimitable woman's inner strength and perseverance, all in pursuit of bringing healing to her community and the world around her. And, at its essence, it is also a story about all of us - our possibility, our empathy, our power - and about the leader we each have inside.
