Vintage Books Live! Author Panel/Practicing Liberation

Often in our efforts to make the world a better place, we end up replicating the very toxic practices we are trying to undo within our nonprofit and social justice organizations. Interpersonal conflicts, burnout, and the stress from the urgent need for change can lead to discouragement, trauma, and sometimes leaving the work altogether. In Practicing Liberation: Transformational Strategies for Collective Healing and Systems Change, the contributors address these issues with a vision for community and personal care.
Join us for a conversation with authors Tessa Hicks Peterson, Jacoby Ballard, and Vanessa Reyes, who collectively helped create the book. During our conversation, we talk about how the book originally came to be and the process the editor and authors went through to bring the book to fruition. We also hear beautiful readings from contributing authors Jacoby Ballard and Vanessa Reyes.
