“Connie Rice is the most brilliant legal mind I’ve encountered in my twenty-year broadcast history. I hang on her every word. She concedes nothing without a demand--never has and never will.” --Tavis Smiley

"A compelling story of a life dedicated to creating positive and lasting change in two of the most significant issues facing our society, civil rights and gang violence. There is nobody in America today who has brought so much positive change to these two issues than Connie.... Anyone who cares about democracy and its true potential needs to read this book." --William J. Bratton, Former Chief-LAPD, Former Commissioner-NYPD
