Let Courage, Not Fear, Drive Our Transformational Advocacy - Sam Daley-Harris - ND3847P

Sam Daley-Harris provides powerful structures of support so that our courage is what drives us, not our fear. He encourages us to move beyond only donating money, signing petitions, or writing letters to the editor. He tells us that deep effectiveness in citizen advocacy is about deep engagement and participating in a cause that you care about. Daley-Harris founded RESULTS and the RESULTS Educational Fund in 1980. RESULTS is an international grassroots, citizen’s lobby committed to healing the break between people and government, and creating the political will to end hunger and the worst aspects of poverty. He is the author of Reclaiming Our Democracy: Every Citizen’s Guide to Transformational Advocacy (revised edition) (Rivertown Books 2024)
