Reviews
"Now more than ever, young people yearn to drastically change the world, and the question so many of them pose is how? The Josephs have not only provided answers to the how s but also the why s and the why now s. Better Than We Found It is the manual for change that every young and not-so-young activist-in-the-making needs. This book will empower a generation ." --Angie Thomas, author of The Hate U Give "This is a text that not only debunks the myth that certain topics are 'too complex' for young people but also breaks said topics down in a way that young people can understand, identify with, discuss . . . and push back against. Should be required reading for every high schooler in America ." --Nic Stone, author of Dear Martin "Delivering clear, approachable, and intentional messaging, Better Than We Found It enables its audience to understand the biggest issues of our time in order to reflect, repurpose, and revolutionize our future. Serving as the catalyst to understanding so many of the crises facing our current generation of young people, Better Than We Found It is THE essential bread-crumb trail to initiate readers' understanding of the widespread inequalities in our world and to help them do something about them. Better Than We Found It is an invitation to safeguard the future, a powerful and accessible book that empowers readers to disengage from detrimental systems of regressive inequity in order to build a progressive and hopeful tomorrow." --Willy and Jo Lorenz, writers and cofounders of the Progressivists " Insightful, heartfelt, and informed, Better Than We Found It lives up to its name ." --Dr. Anton Treuer, educator and author of Everything You Wanted to Know about Indians But Were Afraid to Ask "In this comprehensive, intersectional callout of inequitable systems and institutions, the Josephs call us in, focusing our attention on not only what is important to fight against but also what is critical to fight for. This book is urgent , as is the work we each must do to dismantle oppressive forces that work to divide and destroy us." --Dr. Sonja Cherry-Paul, educator and coauthor of Stamped (for Kids) " Better Than We Found It is a singular guide to making the world just that--better than we found it. But with so much going wrong, it can be hard to know where to start. Through intimate interviews with some of the most impactful leaders of today, the Josephs weave a powerful guide for the next generation, empowering them to understand and take on some of today's biggest challenges. This book will leave you fired up and ready to be the change ." --Ben O'Keefe, social change activist and political commentator " Better Than We Found It is an unflinching and incisive clarion call , road map, and lighthouse guiding us toward social change and collective liberation in these tough times. Fred and Porsche Joseph demand that we dig deeper into the rotted roots of injustice in order to stand tall on the mighty shoulders of our revolutionary predecessors. Vital and radically profound! " --Ibi Zoboi, New York Times best-selling author and coauthor of Punching the Air, "Now more than ever, young people yearn to drastically change the world, and the question so many of them pose is how? The Josephs have not only provided answers to the how s but also the why s and the why now s. Better Than We Found It is the manual for change that every young and not-so-young activist-in-the-making needs. This book will empower a generation." --Angie Thomas, author of The Hate U Give

Synopsis
From the New York Times best-selling author of The Black Friend and a seasoned activist comes an indispensable guide to social and political progressivism for young people and anyone wanting to get more involved. What is disinformation, and how does it influence our lives? How did the wealth gap become so staggeringly wide? Why do so many Americans lack access to quality health care? And--most importantly--what can we do about it all? Through a combination of personal anecdotes and interviews, authors Frederick Joseph and Porsche Joseph make a compelling case for tackling some of the biggest issues of our day, from gun violence, the prison system, transphobia, and indigenous land theft to climate change, education, housing, and immigration. Covering sixteen topics and featuring more than two dozen interviews with prominent activists, authors, actors, and politicians, this is the essential resource for those who want to make the world better than we found it. Featuring interviews with: Mehcad Brooks Keah Brown Julián Castro Sonja Cherry-Paul Chelsea Clinton Charlotte Clymer Mari Copeny, aka Little Miss Flint Greg D'Amato Jesse Katz Amed Khan Daniel Alejandro Leon-Davis Willy and Jo Lorenz Ben O'Keefe Brittany Packnett Cunningham Anna Paquin Robert Reich Brandon T. Snider Nic Stone Anton Treuer Andrea Tulee David Villalpando Elizabeth Warren Shannon Watts Natalie Weaver Brandon Wolf
