Making a Movement
£14.99
From Greta Thunberg’s inspiring school strike in Sweden to emerging ‘hacktivism’ in Ethiopia and Iran to the toppling of the statue of a notorious slave trader in Britain, Barney Cullum travels around the world to find out how disruptors are fighting for a better future.
Meet the dissidents campaigning for democracy in Moscow and Istanbul, activists in the Sahel, Palestine, Brazil, and Ukraine, a commune claiming underground energy in Denmark and climate emergency protesters across Europe.
Everywhere Cullum goes, he asks: how are you achieving change? Find out the secrets of successful movements for social change, including:
- What made Ireland U-turn on abortion?
- How did Taiwan’s students resist when Hong Kong’s could not?
- What persuaded Britain to reform its drug laws?
- How did peace finally break out in Colombia?
