Moving Forward: A Story of Hope, Hard Work, and the Promise of America

"Moving Forward arrives at a moment when inspiration, insight, and optimism are in short supply. Karine Jean-Pierre delivers all three in abundance." --Stacey Abrams, author of Lead from the Outside

"Karine Jean-Pierre illuminates her path to insider status so others can follow in her footsteps."--Essence

"Jean-Pierre inspires us to get involved in politics--every single one of us, no matter where we are from or who we are."--The Atlantic

Everyone's path into politics is different. In Moving Forward, Karine Jean-Pierre tells her own story, looking back on her life as a first-generation Haitian American. And she shares what she's learned about politics, offering a handbook for anyone who wants to take part, no matter how or where they grew up or how young or old they might be.

Those who care for America are filled with a historic sense of urgency. Together we can create positive change, and, in this book, Karine Jean-Pierre shows us how.
