We Are The Ones We Have Been Waiting For

Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Color Purple and one of the most prominent novelists of her generation, Alice Walker is also a bestselling non-fiction writer whose work has been widely praised. In We Are the Ones We have Been Waiting For, Walker brings us a collection of meditations that draw equally on her spiritual grounding and her progressive political convictions. Essay-style chapters conclude with a suggested meditation on patience, compassion, and forgiveness not only for ourselves but for our foes as well. Taking on some of the greatest challenges of our times, Walker encourages readers to have faith that despite the overwhelming situations we find ourselves in, we are prepared to create positive change.
