Description

Pocket Change Collective was born out of a need for space.

Space to think. Space to connect. Space to be yourself. And this is your invitation to join us. This is a series of small books with big ideas from today's leading activists and artists. 'The right balance of curiosity and good old nerve has always pushed me toward good directions in my life.

During the darkest, most discouraging times, I can lean on those two parts of me.' In this installment of the Pocket Change Collective, musician and technology phenom Shavone Charles explores how curiosity and nerve led her from a small college in Merced, California, to some of the most influential spaces in the tech world: from Google to Twitter to eventually landing a spot on the coveted Forbes 30 Under 30 list.

Grateful for being the first in many spaces, but passionate about being neither the last nor the only, Charles tells her story in the hopes of guiding others and shaping a future where people, particularly women of color, feel empowered to make space for themselves and challenge society’s status quos. Series Overview: Artists and activists from around the globe share stories, guidance, and candid advice in this nonfiction anthology series for young adults.
