Better than We Found It

Conversations to Help Save the World

By: Frederick Joseph, Porsche Joseph

Narrated by: Deanna Anthony, Cary Hite

From the New York Times best-selling author of The Black Friend and a seasoned activist comes an indispensable guide to social and political progressivism for young people and anyone wanting to get more involved.

Every generation inherits the problems created by the ones before them, but no generation will inherit as many problems—as many crises—as the current generation of young people. From the devastations of climate change to the horrors of gun violence, from rampant transphobia to the widening wealth gap, from the lack of health care to the lack of housing, the challenges facing the next generation can feel insurmountable. But change, even revolution, is possible; you just have to know where to start. In Better Than We Found It, best-selling author Frederick Joseph and debut author Porsche Joseph make the case for addressing some of the biggest issues of our day. Featuring more than two dozen interviews with prominent activists, authors, actors, and politicians, this is the essential resource for those who want to make the world better than we found it.

Better understanding

This was a good book for me as a baby boomer white woman. I learned many things and will now have a changed perspective.

Informative

The authors did an an excellent job explaining the topics they chose for this book. I learned a lot of new information.

beautifully written and read in authors voices

I thought the Joseph's did a great job getting their lived experiences across without sounding harsh or rude. I am a white woman who knows I have privilege in most things in my life, I am also disabled and female as well. I also see things differently thansome others do. If you want to learn something, understand the other view of a situation listening to this book is a great start. if you are so fragile and can't hear that you're privileged and you are part of the problem don't bother with this book. you won't learn anything and you will just write a crappy review instead of looking in the mirror. I highly recommend this book for people who are interested in healing themselves as well making the world just a better place to live.
