Book launch: Juanita Tolliver presents A More Perfect Party: The Night Shirley Chisholm and Diahann Carroll Reshaped Politics

Brooklyn's own Shirley Chisolm and legendary actress and singer Diahann Carroll take center stage in MSNBC political analyst Juanita Tolliver's riveting account of the legendary party for Chisholm’s 1972 presidential campaign that changed the playing field for Black women in politics. In A More Perfect Party, Tolliver presents a path to people-centered politics through the lens of this soiree, with surprising parallels to our current electoral reality. Zooming in on one party attendee per chapter, Tolliver brings this whimsical event out of the margins of history to demonstrate that there is an opportunity for all of us to fight for a better nation and return power to the people. Following a reading and in-depth discussion on the book, there will be an audience Q&A and signing.
