Why do we take one step forward and then two steps back - on racial justice, the environment, immigration, gun control? What can we do to bridge the divides in our increasingly polarized country, beginning with the very language we use? How can nonprofits and public agencies best serve constituents in need, balancing mission with necessities such as marketing (too often dismissed as a luxury)? What lessons from past social justice efforts directly benefit our current work? How do those in justice professions make a sustainable difference, and how do we keep on keeping on?</p><p style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:3.25in; margin-bottom:6.0pt;margin-left:.55in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level7 lfo1; tab-stops:list 3.5in;"><br></p><p style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:3.25in; margin-bottom:6.0pt;margin-left:.55in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level7 lfo1; tab-stops:list 3.5in;" class="ql-align-justify"><em style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">Chasing Social Justice</em><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"> addresses these questions in an unusually poignant and accessible way, combining lived experience with political analysis, illuminating lessons learned over the past three decades across social justice movements, initiatives, and organizations. </span></p><p style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:3.25in; margin-bottom:6.0pt;margin-left:.55in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level7 lfo1; tab-stops:list 3.5in;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"> </span></p><p style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:3.25in; margin-bottom:6.0pt;margin-left:.55in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level7 lfo1; tab-stops:list 3.5in;" class="ql-align-justify"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">Described by Mike Dukakis as "Just what we need ... at just the right time," this riveting new</span> <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">book is ideal for: </span></p><p style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:3.25in; margin-bottom:6.0pt;margin-left:.55in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level7 lfo1; tab-stops:list 3.5in;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 32, 96);">· </span><strong style="color: rgb(0, 32, 96);">Nonprofit leaders</strong></p><p style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:3.25in; margin-bottom:6.0pt;margin-left:.55in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level7 lfo1; tab-stops:list 3.5in;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">· </span><strong style="color: rgb(0, 32, 96);">Professors</strong><span style="color: rgb(0, 32, 96);"> </span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">teaching graduate and undergraduate students in areas such as </span><strong style="color: rgb(0, 32, 96);">Public Health, Social Work, Management, Public Policy, Education, Sociology, and Political Science</strong></p><p style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:3.25in; margin-bottom:6.0pt;margin-left:.55in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level7 lfo1; tab-stops:list 3.5in;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">· New and long-time </span><strong style="color: rgb(0, 32, 96);">activists</strong></p>
