"I commit to waging justice so that all people can have winning lives and can live in healthy balance with Earth; I serve others by waging justice for the entire world, one step at a time. For me, justice is the path to peace."
Join Busboys and Poets Books as we welcome Paul Zeitz to 14th and V! A physician, an epidemiologist, and a tenacious, energetic, award-winning advocate for global justice and human rights, Dr. Zeitz has dedicated his career to catalyzing large-scale global impact. He is currently waging justice in the USA and globally to mobilize community-wide action to achieve the “Sustainable Development Goals†(SDGs) and Paris Climate Treaty compliance by 2030.Â
Dr. Zeitz's new book is "Waging Justice: A Doctor's Journey to Speak Truth and be Bold."Â In unflinching prose, Dr. Paul Zeitz shares a lifetime of struggles and hard-won lessons as a doctor, activist, father, and son. His complex dance between healing others and healing himself ultimately transforms the inexplicable anger and disappointment he felt at the state of the world and his own past into full-throttled, open-hearted, soul-satisfying action set with his family and on a global stage. Waging Justice is a personal story and also a universal one: a story of action, of courage, and of forgiveness; and a rallying cry to wage justice in our lives, speak the truth, be bold, serve justice for all by taking action in the world today
