Jamia Wilson is a bright and shining light - a tireless activist, a vivid writer, and world-class bridge-builder. MAKE GOOD TROUBLE explores the rich and complicated history of social justice, presenting its leaders and heroes to the reader in a way that is accessible, thoughtful, and encouraging. There is much to be learned on every page, and much to be celebrated. -- Elizabeth Gilbert, the author of ten books – including EAT PRAY LOVE and BIG MAGIC: CREATIVE LIVING BEYOND FEAR – which altogether have sold over 25 million copies worldwide

In a world where young people are often underestimated, this book shines a light on their undeniable power and potential. We’re witnessing a generation that isn’t waiting for permission to lead-they’re organizing, challenging injustices, and demanding change across the globe. Jamia's book "MAKE GOOD TROUBLE" is needed because it is a reminder that the future is being shaped right now by those with the courage to act. I'm so glad this exists. -- Luvvie Ajayi Jones, NYT bestselling author and book coach

Young people have long been integral to movements for liberation. Their imagination, seriousness, energy, and love have fueled our most ambitious victories. Wilson affirms their rightful place in the history of progressive change and offers us an invaluable and accessible archive of their work to make a better world. Make Good Trouble is as much a gift for today's young people as it is for all of us who know a better future is possible because it reminds us how we get there: by cherishing and nourishing the bravery, brilliance, and care young people bring to our movements and communities. -- Cameron Russell, author of How to Make Herself Agreeable to Everyone and co-founder of Model Mafia

I am not surprised that Jamia’s brilliance is easily translatable for this youth-full audience, but I am delighted. Never has it been more important for young people to activate their courageous voice toward the healing of our nation. This book is a field guide for ‘because they did, yes we can!' -- Rev. Jacqueline Lewis, author of Fierce Love and the Just Love Story Bible
