Hey! @Leahgreenb and I are writing a book! AP covered the announcement this morning. We're super jazzed about this. Couple reflections in this thread: washingtonpost.com/entertainment/…
1) This isn't just the Leah & Ezra story. We tell the stories and lessons learned (we have 16!) from the the local power building that Indivisible groups have done over the last 2 years. This is a book about power - how to find it, build it, and use it.
2) And we put Indivisible firmly on the side of big, bold reforms to our democracy. Indivisible is evolving - from resisting Trump to fighting to take down the forces that allowed him to rise. This book will articulate our plans not just for 2020, but for 2021 and beyond.
3) Leah and I are writing it, but because this book belongs to the Indivisible movement, we're not taking a dime. 100% of authors' proceeds (advance and any royalties) are going to Indivisible's new "Save Democracy Fund."
So we hope the books fly off the shelf! More books sold means a stronger and growing Indivisible movement, and it means more $$$ for the Save Democracy Fund - all good stuff as we head into 2020 and beyond.
Interesting factoid from the publishing world: we need about 10,000 pre-orders to get on the New York Times bestseller list, which will grow the audience even more. Just 10k! Seems totally doable right? If you want to help us get there, you can do it here: book.indivisible.org
