Harrison James is a breath of fresh air in the activism space. His determination, his passion, his eloquence and ability to connect with the public and politicians alike is the key to his success. He is a true testament to the importance of activism and spotlighting the victim -survivor experience. This book has the potential to change the political landscape of this country, even if every person who reads it walks away only a little bit more like Harrison James. -- Abbie Chatfield Harrison James is one of Australia's most impactful advocates. In sharing his story, Harri empowers others to tell theirs. It is an absolute privilege to know Harri, to witness his work and to now know him at a deeper level through this book. This is what modern masculinity in Australia looks like: courage, vulnerability and action. I am inspired by Harri's strength every single day, this book is a reminder of how each of us have the power to make significant change in the world. -- Hannah Ferguson With clear-eyed courage, Harrison gives an insightful mediation on power, justice and what it means to endure. A vital contribution to an urgent conversation. -- Brittany Higgins They say you shouldnt gush too much in a book endorsement. It might look inauthentic or paid for. But Harrison didnt reach out to me; I reached out to him. Not as an actor or an activist, but as a survivor with questions. Harrison had broken his silence, and I wanted to know how he had done it. In this incredible book, he will teach you the same.
When Harrison writes 'we need a world that doesnt leave people behind', he doesnt just mean it; he lives it. I have read this book twice, and by the time it goes to print, I will have read it again. Thank you, Harrison. -- Ruby Rose Unflinching, practical, and full of heart. Transform Your Pain Into Purpose is the book for anyone who wants to make a difference. -- Tarang Chawla Harrison has transformed his traumatic experiences into a beacon of hope and change. This book is both a testament to the power of survivor voices and a practical roadmap for anyone ready to turn their story into advocacy. His courage in sharing his journey and his generosity in offering tangible tools for others makes this essential reading. This book doesnt just inspire, but equips us all to create the change we need to see. -- Chanel Contos, Founder & CEO of Teach Us Consent
