Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Megan Rapinoe, an Olympic gold medalist and two-time Women's World Cup champion, has emerged as a powerful advocate for social change, encouraging everyone to engage in the fight for justice and equality. Known for her exceptional talent on the soccer field, Rapinoe has also become a prominent voice on critical issues, particularly in the equal pay movement and LGBTQ rights. In her work, she offers an unapologetic exploration of social justice and politics, reflecting on her upbringing in a conservative small town in northern California. From a young age, Rapinoe was instilled with a love for soccer and a commitment to community service, volunteering at shelters and food banks. Her activism intensified in 2016 when she took a knee during the national anthem to protest racial injustice, becoming the first high-profile white athlete to do so. Despite facing backlash, she received overwhelming support and became a catalyst for social change. Through personal anecdotes, including her lawsuit against the United States Soccer Federation for gender discrimination and her refusal to visit the White House, Rapinoe emphasizes our collective responsibility to speak out and make a difference in our communities. She passionately calls on everyone to step outside themselves and strive for greater impact.
