Author Ijeoma Oluo’s guide for everyday people trying to fight oppression
Last summer, one of KUOW's Book Club selections was Seattle author Ijeoma Oluo’s 2024 bestseller, Be a Revolution: How Everyday People Are Fighting Oppression and Changing the World – and How You Can, Too.
In it, Oluo shows how people across the nation are creating positive change for racial equity within our most important systems – like the media, policing, education, and many more. The aim of the book is educational, but also to inspire direct action from its readers.
In the revolutionary spirit of Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy, here's KUOW's Katie Campbell's conversation with Ijeoma Oluo.
