SUMMARY:Book Launch: Radical Justice - Building The World We Need
DESCRIPTION:What does it take to build a future rooted in freedom\, dignity\, and equality when the world feels like it’s moving in the opposite direction? \nAcross the globe\, we are witnessing the rise of authoritarian politics\, widening economic inequality\, and a climate crisis at breaking point. The scale of injustice can feel overwhelming. In moments like these\, it’s easy to feel powerless. \nBut what if change doesn’t start “out there”?What if it starts with us? \nIn her new book Radical Justice\, international human rights lawyer Nani Jansen Reventlow offers a powerful and practical guide for strengthening the movement for freedom and equality for all. Drawing on decades of legal and activist work\, she shows how each of us—within our own spheres of influence—can take meaningful action toward systemic change. \nInspired by anti-racist and social justice thinkers such as Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò and Angela Davis\, Radical Justice moves beyond despair and into action. The book explores concrete pathways including strategic litigation\, digital rights\, reparations\, and climate justice\, while inviting readers to learn\, reflect\, and act in a society that often tells us change is impossible. \n\nAbout the event\nThe evening will begin with an in-conversation with Nani Jansen Reventlow\, moderated by Chisom Udeze\, Executive Director of Diversify\, followed by a panel discussion. Speakers include: Bjørn Ihler\, founder and CEO of Revontulet and co-founder and director of the Khalifa Ihler Institute\, Michelle Tisdel\, Researcher at National Library of Norway and Curator of Black History Month Norway (Oslo)\, Winta Negassi\, Board member of Haugerud I.F and Community and Youth Advocate.  \nAt the event\, Prismatic Pages will be selling copies of Radical Justice\, and there will be an opportunity to have your book signed by Nani after the conversation. \nTogether\, we’ll explore: \n\nWhat “radical justice” means in today’s political and social climate\nHow individual and collective action can lower the threshold to change\nWhere responsibility\, power\, and possibility truly lie\n\nThis event is for anyone asking hard questions about the world we live in—and how we might build something better\, together. \nThe event will take place at Sentralen in the Hvelvet hall. \nLimited space available. Register to secure your spot. \nRegister Here!\n \n\nAbout the Author\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNani Jansen Reventlow is an international human rights lawyer.
