Description:

Please join Busboys and Poets Books as we welcome author Nick Licata to 5th and K to discuss his new book "Becoming a Citizen Activist." 

"Becoming a Citizen Activist" is a self-help book for citizens wanting to change the political world around them; learn to see opportunities for improvements and you learn what tools are available. Licata shows how to effectively question the status quo and offer alternative solutions to achieve a more responsive government and just society. He systematically goes through the steps required to be an effective change agent; twenty community groups are now using his book to do just that." 

Nick will be joined in conversation with Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal and DC City Councilmember Elissa Silverman. Books will be available before and after the event for purchase. Please email books@busboysandpoets.com with questions.
