Critics Review
“A. Rahema Mooltrey’s How to be a Social Justice Advocate gives key insight into the layers necessary for humankind to support critical causes. Through an intimate and empirical lens, this book allows readers to explore their personal objectives in being a part of social justice movements while creating context of what ‘the work’ is. Centering equity, justice, safety, and health, Mooltrey inspires readers to do the inner work to create authentic and holistic change in the communities and the greater world. How to be a Social Justice Advocate shows us we are all connected, particularly in equitable and inequitable ways–in just and unjust ways, and we must use our connections to create positive change and transformation within our overarching society.” –Lisa V. Betty, historian, educator and writer
“If you want to put your social justice values into practice, this is your book. Rahema Mooltrey’s wise, encouraging yet no-nonsense voice guides readers to understand what it means to work for change–from honest self-examination to unflinching wrestling with systemic, historic inequities. In this very accessible book, she uses personal stories to illuminate larger frameworks and gives practical pointers for how to get started. Everyone–whether you’re new to activism or an old-timer–will find invaluable information and insights.” –May Louie, lifelong activist-organizer and faculty at Tufts Univ. & NeighborWorks America
“What has excited me about Rahema’s book and her life is the testimony she gives to the pursuit of justice. This simple and sophisticated handbook invites multiple young people to share this journey and a passion to change the world. It is so well done and gives us an educational tool to empower young people to join us on this important journey.” –Sr. Margaret A. Leonard, MSW and honorary doctorate in social work
