Leadership in Action: 5 Key Principles of Racial Justice Work by
Kofi Annan More about the book:  42fightingwords.com   As
painful and upsetting as George Floyd’s murder was, it was
encouraging to witness not just the intense condemnation–and
ultimate prosecution–of the officers involved but the almost
universal recognition that that incident was a mere symptom of a
greater problem, systemic racism.   In the subsequent
months, more resources and energy were invested into fighting
systemic racism than ever before. America experienced the largest
and longest-running protests in its history, and corporate America
pledged over $200 billion to racial justice initiatives. 
 Unfortunately, according to research conducted by Forbs
Magazine, as of late 2022, the majority of that money either went
unspent while the rest was spent on efforts that had little
systemic impact. The problem is that even individuals and
organizations that have the best of intentions are clueless about
how to craft an effective strategy to conduct racial justice
activism. This work can be daunting, and even seasoned veterans can
become overwhelmed or burned out.   In this book, Kofi, a
nationally recognized racial justice activist and award-winning
author, lays out his five key guiding principles for conducting
efficient and effective racial justice work. The guide serves as a
tool for individuals, corporations, or non-profit organizations
whose heart is in the right place but could use help crafting a
strategy. Purchase your copy today, click here.
