Summary

In "The Narrative of Sojourner Truth," the author skillfully intertwines her personal experiences with the broader themes of slavery, gender inequality, and social justice. Through a series of poignant anecdotes, Truth employs a direct and compelling narrative style that reflects her oratory prowess. The book serves not only as an autobiographical account but also as a profound testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the fight against oppression during the 19th century, illuminating the historical context of abolitionist movements and early feminism. Sojourner Truth, born into slavery in New York in 1797, transcended her circumstances to become a prominent activist and speaker for both abolition and women's rights. Her experiences as an enslaved woman and her spiritual awakening played pivotal roles in shaping her beliefs and advocacy. Truth's iconic speech, "Ain't I a Woman?" encapsulates the intersectionality of race and gender, highlighting her lifelong commitment to fighting for justice and equality, forged through personal struggle. This narrative is indispensable for readers seeking a deeper understanding of American history and the roots of social justice movements. Truth's eloquence and unwavering resolve make this work a powerful educational tool, inspiring contemporary activists to continue the fight for equality. Engage with her story to grasp the enduring legacy of her message.

    Align people with profits and watch your business thrive 
    Sustainable companies are the ones that turn a profit. But in an ever-evolving world, gearing yourself up for entrepreneurial success means looking beyond the ledger. Because a business isn’t built by financial statements, it’s built by the person in the mirror, for the betterment of society. 
    In Grow: 12 Unconventional Lessons for Becoming an Unstoppable Entrepreneur, Mike Fata details his journey from high-school dropout to successful CEO and how his achievements (and failures), led him to create a guide that will put entrepreneurs on a pathway to success. Spoiler alert: it isn’t a fancy business degree, a high-flying network, or tons of investment capital. 
    By stressing the importance of passion, integrity, and community, these 12 easy-to-follow lessons will highlight how to grow intentionally and build a business that is both authentic to you and relevant to the current landscape. A landscape that values not only the health and well-being of the bank balance, but also of people and the environment. 
    It may seem scary to stray from the conventional business-model, but Fata knows that it is possible to build a sustainable, health-giving business that is also financially viable—because he has done it. And he wants to help you do the same. There is a successful entrepreneur inside everyone. The question is, are you ready to discover yours?"
