“Recommended for anyone interested in social justice and enacting positive change.” Library Journal

“Sensitive people and ‘quiet souls’ do have a place in social justice work. Find your way and avoid burnout with Social Justice for the Sensitive Soul.”

Social Justice for the Sensitive Soul explores six possible pathways for sensitive types:

– Connectors: relational activists whose interactions and conversations build the social capital necessary for change

– Creatives: artists and creators whose work inspires, sheds light, makes connections, and brings issues into the public consciousness

– Record Keepers: archivists who preserve essential information and hold our collective memory and history

– Builders: inventors, programmers, and engineers who center empathy as they develop society-changing products and technologies

– Equippers: educators, mentors, and elders who build skills and knowledge within movements and shepherd the next generation of changemakers

– Researchers: data-driven individuals who utilize information as a persuasive tool to effect change and propose options for improvement

Social justice work, we often assume, is raised voices and raised fists. But what does social justice work look like for those of us who don’t feel comfortable battling in the trenches? Sustaining justice work can be especially challenging for the sensitive, and it requires a deep level of self-awareness, intentionality, and care to avoid overwhelm and burnout. However, those who consider themselves highly emotional, empathic, or introverted are wise, thoughtful, and conscientious. We need their contributions. Alongside inspiring, real-life examples of highly sensitive world-changers, author Dorcas Cheng-Tozun expands the possibilities of how to be a peacemaker and how to create a positive social impact, affirming the particular gifts and talents that sensitive souls offer to a hurting world.
