Description

Get Back to the Counter: Seven Lessons From Civil Rights Icon Joan Trumpauer Mulholland by Loki Mulholland with a foreword by Ruby Bridges.

Her Freedom Rider mugshot has been called one of the most iconic in American history. By the time she was 23 years old, Joan participated in over 50 sit-ins and demonstrations. From her cell on death row to the infamous Jackson Woolworth’s Sit-in, Joan helped change the world. Through highs and lows, victory and death, her story is embodied in seven core principles we all can harness to get back to the counter no matter how many times life pulls us off.

  • Paperback: 168 pages
  • Publisher: The Joan Trumpauer Mulholland Foundation (2023)
