Somebody Should Do Something: How Anyone Can Help Create Social Change

Main Point Books welcomes Alex Madva for a discussion of how communities create social change. Our co-sponsors for the evening are Delco Indivisible and Red, Wine, and Blue. As it is Banned Books Week, the evening will also include the authors' study of book banning fights in Bucks County!

This event will happen in our lower level event space. Reservations are requested via Eventbrite; walk-ins are welcome if space permits.

About the Book

A novel and scientific approach to creating transformative social change—and the surprising ways that each of us can help make a real difference.Changing the world is difficult. One reason is that the most important problems, like climate change, racism, and poverty, are structural. They emerge from our collective practices: laws, economies, history, culture, norms, and built environments. The dilemma is that there is no way to make structural change without individual people making different—more structure-facing—decisions. In Somebody Should Do Something, Michael Brownstein, Alex Madva, and Daniel Kelly show us how we can connect our personal choices to structural change and why individual choices matter, though not in the way people usually think.
