Praise for Trailblazer "[A] forthright and impactful overview of an impressive and storied life in public service."--Booklist
Synopsis
On a sun-splashed spring day in our nation's capital, I was among the honored guests in attendance at a historic celebration on the south lawn of the white house. President joe biden was honoring judge ketanji brown jackson, whom he had nominated as the first african american woman to sit on the supreme court. This celebration marked a momentous milestone in the long march toward justice and equality. Back in 1992, a high-profile and controversial supreme court confirmation hearing led to me running for the United States Senate. The good people of illinois saw fit to elect me, resulting in a historic breakthrough for our great nation. I became the first african american women to serve in the upper chamber. Concurrently, I was the first woman senator to represent the state of illinois in congress. Now a new generation was picking up the torch of democracy and blazing new paths. As vice president kamala harris and ketanji brown jackson flanked our commander-in-chief, my heart brimmed with joy at seeing these brilliant woman, black women, taking their rightful places in the annals of history. What a blessing for me to bear witness, to be in the same space and time, breathing the rare air of progress, promise, and possibility. I have never been prouder and more humbles to be amid fellow trailblazers, knowing that each of us had the distinction of being able to proclaim: "I was the first"., A memoir from Ambassador Carol Moseley Braun detailing her remarkable childhood and political career on the Hill, including her tenure as the first Black female US senator The first Black woman ever elected to the Senate. The first woman to represent the state of Illinois. The first Black woman to serve as a US ambassador to New Zealand. These are just a few of the "firsts" that Ambassador Carol Moseley Braun can lay claim to since entering politics in the 1970s. Since then, the self-professed "Black girl from the south side of Chicago" has been shattering ceilings and making history. Yet her journey to Congress and to international renown was not an easy one, rife with obstacles, controversies, and lessons learned. In Trailblazer, Moseley Braun shares the full story of her extraordinary life in a fascinating narrative filled with poignant, powerful, and sometimes funny stories. Born into a family with a history of civil rights activism and military service dating back to the Civil War, Moseley Braun talks about her childhood in racially segregated Chicago to the present, including marching with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., running for president as the lone woman in a field of men, and fostering surprising friendships throughout her storied career, from Joe Biden to Hillary Clinton. Trailblazer is a story of perseverance, a moving narrative from a once-in-a-generation icon, steeped in the civic and civil rights history of our nation. Carol Moseley Braun offers readers a measure of hope and an optimistic letter to future generations on the work we have done and have yet to do to ensure that our country lives up to the promise of liberty and justice for all.
