| Publisher Description: This book is written in the spirit of honoring and thanking all those who dedicated their lives for social justice and positive social change in America and around the world. Some obvious leaders for orderly and peaceful social change roll off our tongues, Dr. Martin Luther King, President Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, President Abraham Lincoln, President Lyndon B. Johnson, and arguably President John F. Kennedy and President Barrack Obama. In addition, this book recognizes the untold millions of volunteers who joined the struggle to replace injustice and tyranny with peace, equal treatment under the law and peaceful social order. And like some of the greatest moral leaders of our times, they too endured great hardships, torture, imprisonment, assassinations and death at the hands of political zealots who enforced the unjust status quo of their times. Finally, this book celebrates all those positive forward thinkers and movers who even now have been working long hours quietly outside of the spot light to make their personal contributions to change our society into a better place for all to live in peace and prosperity. |
