OUR TIME IS NOW Power, Purpose, and the Fight for a Fair America

In a voice full of grace, warmth, and determination, politician and activist Stacey Abrams provides listeners with a road map for building a more just and democratic nation. She gives an overview of the history of voter suppression in the U.S. and then delves into the myriad ways Republican lawmakers continue to block minority voters from the polls. As examples, she details some of the strategies used in her historic 2018 Georgia gubernatorial campaign--accessing census data, targeting unlikely voters, building inclusive coalitions--and outlines how politicians and citizens can use similar strategies to create change in 2020 and beyond. In a clear, direct delivery, Abrams shares her message with the fire and poise of an inspiring public speaker. This audiobook is a call to action.
