Summary
A guide to being courageous and community-minded, and to disrupting and dismantling age-old power structures in work, life and politics, written by someone who has done exactly that. If you want to make a change, big or small, this is for you. If you are fed up with those in power not listening, this is for you. If you are tired of asking the wrong people to do the right thing, this is for you. Let's be honest. From the outside, Magid Magid's story is an unlikely one. He's a Somali-born black Muslim refugee, who became the youngest ever Lord Mayor of Sheffield and one of the last UK MEPs. Magid had no idea that the poster he dreamed up for a local music festival would go viral; he had no idea that this poster would come to represent a movement that has swept him to the heart of local and European establishment politics, as well as gaining him international recognition for his authentic and creative ways of campaigning. Now, for the first time, he reveals the stories behind each of his 'commandments': what drives him, the obstacles he overcame and what makes him hopeful
