Radical Inclusion

Seven Steps to Help You Create a More Just Workplace, Home, and World

De: David Moinina Sengeh

Narrado por: Dion Graham

"Using stories and examples, David Moinina Sengeh presents seven principles for radical inclusion that are AS ACTIONABLE AS THEY ARE POWERFUL."―Brené Brown

From an inspiring young global leader—"A MASTER CLASS IN INNOVATION" (Kwame Alexander) for anyone who wants to make the world a better place.

The first title from Melinda French Gates’s Moment of Lift Books

As the newly appointed minister of education in Sierra Leone, David Moinina Sengeh assumed that the administration he served—not to mention his family and friends—shared his conviction that all girls belong in the classroom. He was shocked to learn that many of those closest to him, including a member of his own family, were against lifting a long-standing policy banning pregnant girls from school.

Radical Inclusion is the dramatic narrative of Sengeh’s drive to guarantee pregnant girls’ right to an education. His story functions as a parable that can help us all advocate for change by reimagining the systems that perpetuate exclusion.

The specifics of his efforts in Sierra Leone are captivating, and the lessons Sengeh shares are universal. In addition to the candid account of his quest for reform, he offers stories and perspective from other parts of his life, drawing on his experiences encountering racial profiling as a Harvard student, developing cutting-edge prosthetic limbs at MIT, and working to combat algorithmic bias as a data scientist.

Sengeh offers listners a road map for pursuing radical inclusion in their own lives and work—from identifying exclusions, to building coalitions and adapting to a new normal. His audiobook is essential listening for modern leaders or anyone who hopes to help unleash the power of a world that is truly, radically inclusive.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“An optimistic approach to fostering greater inclusion. … Inspirational, motivating, and intellectually sound, Sengeh’s instructional guidance seeks to inspire systemic change and encourages readers to fight for diversity and equity in their own communities. Proactive, pragmatic initiatives promoting radical inclusivity across social divides.”—Kirkus

“Many talk about inclusion, but only dwell in the hope and dream of it. David Moinina Sengeh lives in the active pursuit of a just society. Deftly chronicling the experiences and study that have shaped him, he shows us, with a poet’s heart and a scientist’s mind how to genuinely practice radical inclusion. This book is a master class in innovation and human transformation. Like Fanon and the great African thinkers before him, he has written a rich and practical textbook for advocates, activists, and allies in the struggle for freedom and equality.”—Kwame Alexander, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Door of No Return

"Because we are hardwired for belonging, exclusion will always create suffering–and not just for the excluded. Injustice eventually corrodes everyone’s sense of safety and wellbeing. Using stories and examples, David Moinina Sengeh presents seven principles for radical inclusion that are as actionable as they are powerful. The commitment to intentional and persistent action presented in this book is exactly how we create a more just and loving world."—Brené Brown, PhD, MSW, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller, Dare to Lead

Inspiring as a second generation Sierra Leonean American

I am wholeheartedly committed to creating educational and innovative opportunities in my family's village in the Bombali District of Sierra Leone. Our primary school Magbaikoli, a beacon of learning and hope, has been nurturing young minds for over 20 years, educating more than 250 children annually. Witnessing the growth and impact of this institution fills me with immense pride and joy.

Recently, I came across a book that resonated deeply with my mission and aspirations. It reinforced my dedication to contributing positively to my community. This book aligns with my fervent prayer to support and augment the efforts of leaders like Dr. Sengeh, who are working tirelessly to foster a more radically inclusive Sierra Leone. My goal is to play a significant role in this transformative journey, ensuring that the seeds of education we plant today bloom into a future filled with opportunity, inclusivity, and progress for all. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🇺🇸♥️🇸🇱
