Rise Up is a history book by author Al Sharpton.
This man is a gift from God to the world. This book was a gift from Al Sharpton to us. Appreciate both.
Beginning with a preface by Michael Eric Dyson, Rise Up is a vibrant call to action for our nation, drawing on lessons learned from Pastor Al Sharpton’s unique experience as Pastor Al Sharpton a politician, television and radio host as well as civil rights leader.

Rise Up offers timeless lessons for anyone at a crossroads in their personal or political life, weighing their options on how to proceed.

When young Alfred Charles Sharpton told his mother he wanted to be a preacher, little did he know that his journey would also bring him to fame as a politician, founder of the Action Network. National activist, civil rights activist and talk show on television and radio. server. His tenacity and willingness to assume the political power structure make him the preeminent voice for the modern era, a time of unprecedented challenges.

In Rise Up, Pastor Sharpton revisits highlights of the Obama administration, the 2016 election, and Trump’s continued hold on the Republican Party, while drawing on his decades of experience with key actors. Other important roles in politics and activism, including Shirley Chisholm, Hillary Clinton, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and more.

It’s time to scrutinize our shared failures and shortcomings, and reaffirm our core values ​​to build a clear and fair path forward for America. Our nation today stands at a crossroads – and change cannot wait.

Filled with history, honesty, and valuable suggestions, Rise Up should be a staple in every home, school and library as an essential primer on civil and political rights. treatment in the United States.

I read this book because I love watching Rev. Sharpton on Morning Joe. In my experience, he is always very insightful about BLM or whatever. In fact, even though I think he’s paying attention when it comes to BLM, while watching Morning Joe, I’ve noticed that I also enjoy hearing his views on other topics of the day. And this is the case in Rise Up.

The Reverend is authentic and keeps it authentic when it comes to giving an authentic look at the civil rights movement with its grandeur and its boils. I learned many things from him. He also understands Donald Trump, including based on personal interactions with him.

Rev. Sharpton may not be MLK, but no one can (and MLK itself isn’t perfect). However, Rev. Sharpton takes the tradition of the MLK and makes it more rudimentary and utilitarian. I believe Reverend is growing and can continue to increase its influence in the future in fighting for justice and equality for blacks and other disadvantaged groups.
