It's Your World-If You
Don't Like It, Change It: Activism for
Teens by Mikki Halprin

practical detail and hands-on, up-to-date

valuable information for teens who want to
become activists. The issues are of
crucial interest, encompassing everything
from the environment, war, civil
liberties, and racism to gay rights, birth
control, and women's rights. Each chapter
includes how to get involved at home, at
school, and in the community, and in
compelling sidebars, individual teens
speak out about their activism and,
sometimes, about the harassment they
experienced because of it. This book that
will empower any young adult who would
like to make a difference.
