9781529109948 6105470d50de185c903958a6 Letters to Change the World: From Emmeline Pankhurst to Martin Luther King, Jr. https://www.midlandbookshop.com/s/607fe93d7eafcac1f2c73ea4/6105470e50de185c903958ee/41ymxlnt32s-_sx316_bo1-204-203-200_.jpg


'We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed' Martin Luther King, Jr.

In an era where our liberties are often under threat, Letters to Change the World sends reminders from history that standing up for - and voicing - our personal and political beliefs is not merely a human right but our duty, if we want to make change happen.

Featuring Emmeline Pankhurst rallying her suffragettes, George Orwell's warning against totalitarianism, Nelson Mandela's consoling his children from prison, Time's Up condemning abuses of power, and much more, this collection will inspire you to stand up and speak up - now, for what really matters.

'Remarkable, timely ... At a time of political uncertainty, the collection demonstrates the importance of speaking truth to power' Guardian

Review

"At a time of great political uncertainty and indeed when letter writing is almost a forgotten art, the collection demonstrates the vital and enduring importance of speaking truth to power." --Guardian
