My friend Karen has co-authored another book. It is called Creating Change Through Family Philanthropy:The Next Generation. For those of you who don't know Karen or know of her, she is ridiculously cool. She saved me during my horrific years in Boston, and helped me develop into a better writer. Support her by buying the book!! This is her second book for Softskull Press.
Karen used her multi-million dollar inheritance to co-found The Chahara Foundation--run for and by low income women in the Boston area.
She was also featured on 20/20. If you missed it, watch it now!
The first book, Classified: How to Stop Hiding Your Privilege and Use It for Social Change! , was an excellent "guide for people with class privilege who are tired of cover-ups, who are ready to dig through the buried files and figure out how their privilege really works. Complete with comics, exercises and personal stories, Classified gives its readers the tools they need to stop hiding their privilege and instead put it to work for social change."
