Vital A Torch For Your Social Justice Journey [Paperback]

Our world is wracked with division and differences. Racial tension and social injustices plague our communities.?Conversations about diversity, identity, and social justice are at a?momentous?tipping point.?Too often people feel overwhelmed, angry, and uncertain about how to respond.?

What if instead there was a way to feel completely empowered? What if instead of being railroaded by guilt there was a way to find courage in vulnerability. What if instead of getting shut down by triggers and tip-toeing around issues we could find strength in storysharing and authentic dialogue??

VITAL - Vulnerability, Identity, Trust, Authorship, and Liberation - the five core principles of this book, will give readers the tools and confidence they need to effectively integrate social justice into their everyday lives.

?

Kyle and Aeriel Ashlee share powerful stories and insights in their first co-authored book,?VITAL: A Torch For Your Social Justice Journey. After years of facilitating dialogue around topics like race, gender, and social class, the Ashlees observed patterns in the approaches that were particularly helpful for those on the social justice journey. In an effort to capture these effective tools and make them more accessible to the world, Aeriel and Kyle wrote this book using their own deeply personal stories and profoundly resonant metaphors to illustrate the ideas of Vulnerability, Identity, Trust, Authorship, and Liberation. Bringing these concepts together in one book, VITAL serves as a torch for your social justice journey.
