‘Reclaiming Democracy’
Dear Editor: Join us on Saturday afternoon, Sept. 21, from 3:30-4:40 p.m. at the Brave Heart Manager’s House to celebrate the release of ‘‘Reclaiming Our Democracy.’’ We’ll hear conference call from RESULTS’ founder and author Sam Daley-Harris and Nobel laureate Dr. Muhammad Yunus.
Dr. Yunus said, “Make no mistake, this book is not about advocacy by mouse click, phone messages left at Congressional switchboards, handwritten letters drafted during coffee hour and then forgotten, or lighting up Facebook and Twitter. It is about uncovering and then lighting up the unquenchable desire in each of us to make a difference in the world. It is about providing a powerful structure of support so that our courage is what drives us, not our fear. That is why this 20th anniversary edition of Reclaiming Our Democracy is so critically important. The courage this book shows us how to unleash is our only hope to save creation for our grandchildren and for theirs.’’
There will also be time for questions and answers from local RESULTS volunteers and information on how you can participate in our democracy to end the worst aspects of poverty both domestically and globally.
Sitka RESULTS,
Michele Friedman, Elizabeth Moser,
and Krisanne Rice
