Review
―Patrisse Khan-Cullors, New York Times bestselling author of When They Call You a Terrorist
"Keep Marching, by the fierce and fearless Kristin Rowe-Finkbeiner, is a perfect primer for women everywhere who want to take action - whether you're heading to your first town hall meeting or running for office. With wit and clarity, she covers everything from reproductive rights to maternal mortality to mass incarceration, including a powerful and much-needed call to action for white women to step up and do our part in the fight for justice. Keep Marching is not only a how-to manual; it's a celebration of women's power, progress, and potential to change the world."―Cecile Richards, New York Times bestselling author of Make Trouble and President of Planned Parenthood
"Within every woman lies the power to spark a movement, and Keep Marching provides each of us with the tools and the inspiration we need to unleash our full potential. This extraordinary book can teach an entire generation of women-from every background-how to organize, mobilize, and catalyze a 21st century revolution for true equality."
―Neera Tanden, President, Center for American Progress
"Keep Marching is a powerful call to action for women everywhere-whether you're a seasoned organizer or someone who's getting involved for the first time. As Kristin [states], 'women can lift our nation.' Practical and inspirational guides like this will help us make it happen."

―Leah Greenberg, Co-director, Indivisible

Whether you care about paid leave, equal pay, criminal justice reform or immigration policy - or all of the above - this book will speak to you. Keep Marching makes absolutely clear that the time for us to band together - to listen, to plan, to organize and to act - is now."

Kristin Rowe-Finkbeiner's voice is insightful, respectful, funny, and deeply personal. She unpacks the important political battles of our times and connects them with an intersectional lens, all while tying it back to how to make a change. I would highly recommend to anyone, not just women!
This book explains what’s at stake for women in the current political environment, warns about the dangers posed by ignoring the threats we face, and identifies ways to maximize our impact and power. It is a roadmap for reclaiming our country from those who want to take us backward and for winning the kinds of reforms that will bring lasting change.
The book is compelling – a fast and powerful read that stays with you. I am passing my copy on and buying copies for friends!
Rowe-Finkbeiner includes policy recommendations for each issue in her book. here is one of her policy recommendations for eliminating the wage gap:
"Promote bans on salary history requirements. The administration and Congress should also work to ensure that employees are barred from requiring job candidates to disclose previous salary histories, which contributes to the wage gap over times."
Finally, Rowe-Finkbeiner provides an appendix with lists of organizations that support the issues described in each chapter.
When you get clear about what you want to change for women, Keep Marching is an excellent resource.
I’ve even bought a few copies of the book to give to friends and family!
