Acerca de esta escucha

A moving, politically-charged memoir of surviving trauma and the power of activism from MSNBC legal analyst, professor, civil rights lawyer and former New York City Mayoral candidate Maya Wiley.

Born in a country that has repeatedly traumatized her and her loved ones, Maya Wiley grew up in a household that prioritized activism, hope, and resilience above all else. This attitude landed her father on President Nixon’s enemies list as her mother organized third-party political platforms. Still, they modeled hope for their children. In the decades since, she has borne witness as presidents and political figures used racism and fascism to gain power, and as cities have again and again elected white men, effectively shutting out people of color and women from having a political voice. As a result, she has been forced, time after time, to confront death, injustice, and indifference—just as her Civil Rights activist parents did before her.

After a mayoral race that further exposed our country’s deep divisions, Maya is ready to share her story and that of her parents: one of passion, possibility, and compassion in the face of fear and injustice. She takes listeners through her unconventional upbringing, her father George Wiley‘s tragic death and the resulting trauma, as well as how her experiences spoke to racial, gender, and class identity. Against this painful backdrop, Maya charts her journey of coming into herself and finding hope in a dire political landscape. She also digs into how her previous struggles informed her platform, driving her to represent those who have similarly felt voiceless or ignored. In facing and sharing her own past, Maya shows listeners how they too can remain optimistic in the face of adversity.

I only love her more.

Loved Maya’s reading as well. Heart felt. Perfect. Her story can stand on its own however. Her voice was icing on the cake.

Maya’s story is incredible.

This us an excellent and highly reccomended book! As a black man born in 1950 I could relate to so many of the challenges and triumphs Maya Wiley so poignantly expresses. Thanks for sharing your story and inspiring me to continued action in our struggle for freedom and equality! Stay blessed and continue to be a blessing!

Outstandingly courageous and honest, written as a close friend openly speaks to a friend!

...distracting. "Wraith" when she meant "wrath," for instance.

I didn't know who she was so I went in blind. It was an ok read. I found her kind of unlikable as a child. She seems to go out of her way to paint herself as an obnoxious kid, teenage, and young adult. She had reasons to feel as she did but she doesn't manage to get the point across in a way that you feel her pain instead of saying, "Oh, not another scene where you describe you're bad behavior." Or "Not again. How many times do you want to hit us over with the head that your brother was born with brain damage but somehow you're the one who got short changed." And this one in particular I DO understand first hand, but she couldn't make me feel anything but annoyed at her.

The mispronunciation of common words was a bit...
