We Are Meant to Rise: Voices for Justice from Minneapolis to the World by Carolyn Holbrook

challenging hopeful inspiring reflective slow-paced

This is an incredible collection of essays by writers of color in or tied to Minnesota on race and justice. It’s quite a collection of both new and established writers, organizers, activists, and leaders. I’ve enjoyed diving into the wealth of talent this state has to offer these past few years, and these reflections on the state of the country and our community are so apt after the murder of George Floyd. I’m glad I found this More Than a Single Story project through the Hennepin County Library system.
