Jane Jacobs: CHAMPION OF CITIES, CHAMPION OF PEOPLE

Jane Jacobs was born more than a hundred years ago, yet the ideas she popularized — about cities, about people, about creating a more equitable world — remain hugely relevant today. Debut author Rebecca Pitts paints a vivid picture of a headstrong and principled young girl who committed her life to building cities made for, and by, the people who live in them. This is a story about standing up for what you know is right, including a playbook full of real-world takeaways for young activists.
