Every activist started out as a kid‚ and in some cases, they were kids when their activism began!

Dolores Huerta was once wrongly accused of plagiarizing in school.

Kid Presidents tells all of their stories and more in these hilarious biographies. History has never been this much fun!

One of the most significant sources of suffering comes from our human tendency to avoid difficult emotions. We are not taught how to face these unpleasant, often daily inner experiences (mind-body energies) and so we tend to push them away, ignore them, or become unwittingly overwhelmed by them. Yet how we meet and greet these difficult emotions has everything to do with our well-being, resilience, and ability to connect with ourselves and others. Instinctually, we fight against our uncomfortable emotions.
