Shannon Watts: Fight Like A Mother sponsored by Barrett Bookstore and LWV

August 28, 2019 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm

$100.00

Barrett Bookstore and The League of Women Voters are thrilled to welcome Shannon Watts to Darien to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the LWV . The anniversary celebration kicks off in September when the LWV of Darien welcomes Shannon Watts, Founder of Mom’s Demand Action and author of Fight Like a Mother.

Shannon Watts shares her powerful story of how one mother’s cry for action started a national movement to fight some of the richest and most powerful people in America: the gun lobby. Along with her observations and wisdom, Shannon shares moving messages of perseverance, courage, and compassion, and outlines the core mantras and principles that Moms Demand Action has used to battle the NRA and the intimidating tactics they employ to prevent gun safety progress. Bringing activism into the everyday, Fight Like a Mother will inspire anyone motivated to work for change and channel their values into action.
