About this product
Product Information
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Richards offers practical advice and inspiration for aspiring leaders everywhere."--Hillary Rodham Clinton "An enthralling memoir." -- Booklist (starred review) To Make Change, You Have to Make Trouble From Cecile Richards--president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America and the Planned Parenthood Action Fund for more than a decade, daughter of the late Governor Ann Richards, featured speaker at the Women's March on Washington, and a "heroine of the resistance" ( Vogue )--comes a story about learning to lead and make change, based on a lifetime of fighting for women's rights and social justice. Cecile Richards has been an activist since she was taken to the principal's office in seventh grade for wearing an armband in protest of the Vietnam War. She had an extraordinary childhood in ultra-conservative Texas, where her civil rights attorney father and activist mother taught their kids to be troublemakers. In the Richards household, the "dinner table was never for eating--it was for sorting precinct lists." From the time Richards was a girl, she had a front-row seat to observe the rise of women in American politics. She watched her mother, Ann, transform from a housewife to an electrifying force in the Democratic party who made a name for herself as the straight-talking, truth-telling governor of Texas. But Richards also witnessed the pitfalls of public life that are unique to women. Her experiences paint a powerful portrait of the misogyny, sexism, fake news, and even the threat of violence confronting those who challenge authority. As a young woman, Richards worked as a labor organizer alongside women earning minimum wage and learned that those in power don't give it up without a fight. Now, after years of advocacy, resistance, and progressive leadership, she shares her story for the first time--from the joy and heartbreak of activism to the challenges of raising kids, having a life, and making change, all at the same time. She shines a light on the people and lessons that have gotten her through good times and bad, and encourages readers to take risks, make mistakes, and make trouble along the way. Richards has dedicated her life to taking on injustice, and her memoir will inspire readers to hope and action.

Reviews
"[T]he guidelines for starting any organization are spot-on: direct, down-to-earth, and highly practical... A memoir that makes palpable the immense influence of an organization that has improved so many women's lives." --Kirkus, "An intimate yet wide-ranging chronicle of a life in the trenches and at the pinnacle of her profession, Richards' enthralling memoir will provide rousing motivation for anyone passionate about social and political causes." --Booklist (starred review), "Cecile Richards's story is powerful and infinitely readable. Whether you are newly 'woke,' a longtime activist, or just a caring citizen wondering how to advance democracy in hard times, Make Trouble has the answers. Cecile takes the mystery out of activism, gives you practical examples of how it's done, and tells stories that melt the distance from your front porch to Washington. She is the best teacher on earth -- someone you trust." --Gloria Steinem, "Documenting an inspiring life and offering a call to action, this timely volume is for all readers." -- Library Journal, "With Make Trouble , Cecile Richards--the fiery feminist icon to whom we are indebted--is now also the relatable warrior we adore. By inviting us beyond her frontline fight for justice and into her heart, Richards shows us that a life of activism isn't reserved for the perfect, it's for the passionate; and that it's never too early or too late for women to show up for themselves and each other. In these difficult times in which equality-minded folks are desperate to find purpose and connection, Make Trouble is a roadmap to both." --Glennon Doyle, "Cecile Richards is whip-smart, clear-eyed, quick-witted, levelheaded and lionhearted. She employs all of these virtues in her fight for women's health and women's rights. She's also employed them in the writing of this wonderful memoir, Make Trouble. The book, like its author, is a powerhouse." --Ann Patchett, "This memoir/feminist manifesto from Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards will inspire you to make waves and be brave." -- Glamour, "Part autobiography, part handbook for the resistance, this inspiring tale of advocacy is a must-read for every Nasty Woman out there." -- Bustle, "With Make Trouble , Cecile Richards--the fiery feminist icon to whom we are indebted--is now also the relatable warrior we adore. By inviting us beyond her frontline fight for justice and into her heart, Richards shows us that a life of activism isn't reserved for the perfect--it's for the passionate--and that it's never too early or too late for women to show up for themselves and each other. In these difficult times in which equality-minded folks are desperate to find purpose and connection, Make Trouble is a roadmap to both." --Glennon Doyle, "Cecile Richards is my kind of troublemaker. When she sees inequality and injustice anywhere, she does something about it--with wit, wisdom, and courage. Especially at this moment, there's a lot we can learn from her career spent fighting for women's rights. Make Trouble is exactly the book our country needs." -- Sheryl Sandberg, "Cecile Richards is whip-smart, clear-eyed, quick-witted, level-headed and lion-hearted. She employs all of these virtues in her fight for women's health and women's rights. She's also employed them in the writing of this wonderful memoir Make Trouble. The book, like its author, is a powerhouse." --Ann Patchett, "Cecile Richards has always been willing to act up, if need be, to make a difference. Make Trouble is more than a memoir, it's a how-to manual for effecting change." --Dr. Willie Parker, "By detailing her own political battles, Cecile Richards has crafted a blueprint for budding activists.... Genial, engaging, and humorous ... If you're looking for books to fill you with energy for the long haul that lies before us, this one is a great place to start." -- New York Times Book Review, " Make Trouble is a timely reminder that each of us has the power to fight for justice and create the change we want to see. With insight and humor, Cecile Richards offers a call to action for aspiring organizers and leaders. A must-read for anyone hoping to make a difference and trying to figure out where to start." --Senator Kamala Harris, "Cecile Richards's story is powerful and infinitely readable. Whether you are newly 'Woke,' a longtime activist, or just a caring citizen wondering how to advance democracy in hard times, Make Trouble has the answers. Cecile takes the mystery out of activism, gives you practical examples of how it's done, and tells stories that melt the distance from your front porch to Washington. She is the best teacher on earth -- someone you trust." --Gloria Steinem, "In this passionate self-portrait, activist Richards maps her road to success from union organizer to her tenure as president of Planned Parenthood, recalling the experiences that shaped her career... It serves as a call to action for women who are mobilizing to make a difference in government and healthcare policies." --Publishers Weekly

POSITIVE: ok communication; negotiated on price for certain books; held and shipped when I requested; books arrived undamaged
NEGATIVE: upon opening box, noticed smell of smoke on books. Reached out to seller and they admitted that some were from a smoke environment. This was not disclosed in the ad nor during our emails. Felt they should have disclosed this during the buying process. They offered to refund but I wanted and books so will work to get the smells out... just a bit disappointed
