Cuando decides denunciar las injustas muertes de la gente de tu comunidad e inicias un movimiento revolucionario, tal vez algunos te llamen terrorista. Esto es lo que les sucedió a Patrisse Khan-Cullors y Asha Bandele, entre otros muchos activistas, cuando decidieron impulsar el movimiento Black Lives Matter, el cual incendió las redes sociales en 2013 tras la absolución de George Zimmerman por la muerte del adolescente afroamericano Trayvon Martin.
«Cuando te llaman terrorista» es un relato de las injusticias raciales que vivió Patrisse Khan-Cullors durante su adolescencia y los pasos que la llevaron a cofundar el movimiento Black Lives Matter junto con Alicia Garza y Opal Tometi. Este libro de memorias, escrito a cuatro manos con la periodista Asha Bandele, es un discurso empoderado de supervivencia y resiliencia sobre lo que significa ser mujer negra en Estados Unidos y un poderoso estímulo que llama a la acción contra la injusticia social.

From one of the co-founders of the Black Lives Matter movement comes a poetic audiobook memoir and reflection on humanity. Necessary and timely, Patrisse Cullors' story asks us to remember that protest in the interest of the most vulnerable comes from love. Leaders of the Black Lives Matter movement have been called terrorists, a threat to America. But in truth, they are loving women whose life experiences have led them to seek justice for those victimized by the powerful. In this meaningful, empowering account of survival, strength, and resilience, Patrisse Cullors and asha bandele seek to change the culture that declares innocent black life expendable.
More praise for When They Call You a Terrorist:
"Steeped in humanity and powerful prose...This is an eye-opening and eloquent coming-of-age story from one of the leaders in the new generation of social activists." - Publishers Weekly
"With great candor about her complex personal life, Khan-Cullors has created a memoir as compelling as a page-turning novel." - Booklist
Following the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin, three women - Alicia Garza, Opal Tometi, and Patrisse Khan-Cullors - came together to form an active response to the systemic racism causing the deaths of so many African-Americans. They simply said: Black Lives Matter; and for that, they were labelled terrorists.
In this empowering account of survival, strength, and resilience, Patrisse Khan-Cullors and award-winning author and journalist asha bandele recount the personal story that led Patrisse to become a founder of Black Lives Matter, seeking to end the culture that declares Black life expendable. Like the era-defining movement she helped create, this rallying cry demands you do not look away.
With foreword by Angela Davis.
