If It’s a Battle They Want…
Partisan politics has fueled America’s democracy since the country’s inception. The infrastructure of the U.S. political system leaves many citizens feeling powerless, voiceless, and frustrated - particularly people of color. Breaking down data in a consumable way, TIFFANY D. CROSS offers a different narrative of how Black women are well positioned to define what government looks like at the local, state, and federal level. She argues that the fastest way to lose power is not recognizing that you have it.
Author Talk: 'Love, Me'
TIFFANY CROSS examines the gap between what Black women are expected to carry and what they are given in return, drawing from Love, Me to connect personal experience to larger systems of power. She unpacks how resilience is often demanded but rarely supported, and what it takes for organizations and leaders to move beyond recognition into real change.
