Radical Justice: Each of us can be the Revolution
Radical Justice: Each of us can be the Revolution
In Conversation with Nani Jansen Reventlow and Nova Reid

In a world where fascists are winning elections, economic inequality is rampant, and the climate crisis is at its tipping point, it can feel like the amount of work needed to overcome these injustices is too much to handle. But what if there is a way to lower the threshold to action? Who will free us if not ourselves?

To celebrate the UK publication of Radical Justice, join award-winning international human rights lawyer Nani Jansen Reventlow in conversation with acclaimed agent of change, Nova Reid to discuss their experiences as Black women activists and visionaries.

Taking inspiration from Jansen Reventlow’s book on how we can build a fundamentally different future, they will explore some of the most pressing issues of our time, including reparations, climate justice, digital rights, and most importantly, how each of us can be the revolution.

Radical Justice: Building the World We Need by Nani Jansen Reventlow will be available to purchase from This is Book Love.
