Book Club

The Integrated Schools Book Club is a way for people from across the country to come together and discuss books, articles, videos, and podcasts pertaining to school integration. While the conversations are geared for parents and caregivers, everyone is welcome.

We meet via zoom and keep the sessions small so that everyone has a chance to talk — this is not a webinar!  There is no cost to attend — you need only internet access at the time of the meeting (and if you don’t have access to a computer with a camera, no worries).

Join us for the next Integrated Schools Book Club!

 

Omkari L. Williams has worked as a political consultant and life coach for 30 years, with an emphasis on supporting activists who identify as introverted or highly sensitive. As a queer Black woman, she shares her own story of challenging injustice to empower others in making a difference in their communities. She leads workshops and trainings and is host of the popular podcast, Stepping into Truth, where she interviews people doing activism in their own unique ways. To help people identify their own way of activism she created the Activist Archetype Quiz ©. 

about the book

In Micro Activism, former political consultant turned activism coach Omkari Williams shares her expertise in empowering introverts and highly sensitive people to help each of us, no matter our temperament, find our most satisfying and effective activist role. Using Williams’s Activist Archetype tool, readers discover their unique strengths and use this to develop a personal strategy. Advice on self-care practices, burn-out prevention, and profiles of activists engaged in a range of activities and causes provide readers with the inspiration and practical know-how needed to engage in small, doable actions that make a lasting impact.

What better way to kick off 2025 than with a practical, personal guide to small actions that can lead to big results?! Register to join in the discussion by clicking the date/time that works for you:
