Tune in to kruufm.com this Friday, Jan. 29 at 1pm Central Time to help Writers’ Voices welcome Marisa Handler, author of Loyal to the Sky: Notes from an Activist. Marisa was born in apartheid South Africa, and moved to California as an adolescent. As a young woman, she spent time in Israel, India, Nepal, Ecuador, Peru, and all over the United States. This book gives us a look inside the social justice movement, with which she became involved as a natural outgrowth of her life experience.
Medea Benjamin, Cofounder of Global Exchange and CODEPINK, say, “Marisa Handler takes a brutally honest look at herself, the activist community, and the world. She writes with wit and beauty, preaches with passion and love. Loyal to the Sky is an affirmation that mortal humans, with all our foibles, can be powerful agents for change.”
This memoir has also received high praise from such well known authors as
Rabbi Michael Lerner, Michael Nagler, Christopher D. Cook, and Antonia Juhasz.
