Just when the world needs it most, a new style of social engagement is emerging: Active Citizenship.A key member of one of New Yorks most civicminded familiesone that has supported many of Americas notable institutions and deserving programsJonathan Tisch has devoted a lifetime to active citizenship. Its an idea that uses the power of practical creativity and grassroots participation to solve seemingly intractable problems. In Citizen You, Tisch challenges readers to join this movement and points the way toward making our world a better place, one person and one neighborhood at a time.Tisch has filled Citizen You with accounts of people who youll meet, such inspirational individuals as:Scott Harrison, who has used the networking and marketing skills he developed as a night club promoter to help over a million people in the developing world get access for the first time to clean, safe drinking water.Steffi Coplan, whose Broadway2Broadway project brought out the hidden musical talents of kids at an inner city school.Eric Schwarz, who decided to do something about Americas underperforming schools, and parlayed a single classroom mentoring project into the nationwide Citizens Schools movement.Chris Swan, who is training a new generation of citizen engineers to make sure that the projects they build arent just structurally sound but also environmentally and socially sustainable.Dave Nelson, who traded his role as an executive at IBM for a job at a struggling nonprofit that teaches kids about the power of entrepreneurshipand discovered a host of new challenges and rewards in the process.Through these and many other remarkable stories, youll learn how todays active citizens are transforming thinking about social change. Rather than shortterm fixes and handmedown charity, theyre striving to build sustainable, systemic solutions to our most challenging problems, building and empowering communities rather than fostering dependency. And theyre using a host of new tools, from online networking and privatepublic partnerships to corporate engagement and social entrepreneurship, to redefine how change can happen. Citizen You is a potent antidote to pessimism. At a time of unprecedented challenges on the national and world stage, when active citizenship is not a choice but a necessity, Citizen You dares us to reshape the social, political, and intellectual structures that have long confined us, and offers fresh thinking that redefines the very concept of activism.
