CALLING ALL CONCERNED CITIZENS IN THE UNITED STATES


Are you

  • Tired of our broken politics and the deteriorating quality of life in America?
  • Aware that we need a dramatic shift for our democracy to survive?
  • Aspiring to be part of the solution to create a responsive, inclusive 21st Century democracy?


You are not alone....and there is a solution. When her mother couldn't answer questions about the racial divide in her integrated Chicago community, Ruth Backstrom was determined to do something about that. Her passion was so strong that it led to her arrest at the age of thirteen in a civil rights protest, sending her on a lifetime quest to find answers and solutions for those nagging concerns from her youth.


Inside this book you will discover

  • An inspiring guide for creating a powerful pro-democracy movement
  • Powerful approaches that American citizens have used in the past to create reforms
  • How proven facilitation methods could draw on our collective wisdom to design a vision for the new modern democracy that we deserve and need


"This powerful book shares ways to communicate honestly and compassionately and work together to create a stronger, more productive United States of America. Backstrom invites each of us to get off our couch, light our torch, and join her dynamic journey to ignite a bold new democracy."
