The Activist's Toolkit

Imparting a ton of practical advice and wisdom gained through over forty years of civic activism,
Rex Burkholder has written a guidebook for people who care about people. The Activist’s Toolkit
is a new, creative approach to leadership, focusing on how to be effective as a community activist.
The lessons in this book can be used by anyone—from the elected official to the nonprofit
leader to the average citizen—hoping to discover new, more inclusive ways to address community
problems. The combination of exercises for personal reflection, practical suggestions for working
with others, and stories of the successes and failures of ordinary people offers every reader ways
to communicate authentically, advocate effectively, and lead productively toward a better world.
