Stacey Abrams Announces Twelve-City Speaking Tour
Political leader and voting rights activist Stacey Abrams has announced a national speaking tour. The tour, A Conversation with Stacey Abrams, will launch in San Antonio at The Tobin Center’s H-E-B Performance Hall on September 20, 2021, before heading on to eleven other US cities.
Abrams will present an evening of candid conversation and insights on politics, leadership, entrepreneurship, social justice, and being a true voice for change. Designed around worldwide and national events, as well as questions from the audience and community, this conversation with Stacey Abrams aims to inform and empower.
Abrams’ New York Times bestselling book Lead from the Outside: How to Build Your Future and Make Real Change, is a personal and empowering blueprint for outsiders who seek to become the ones in charge. From her experiences launching a company to building Georgia into a premier battleground state, Abrams illuminates that finding what you want to fight for is as critical as knowing how to turn thought into action.
Dedicated to civic engagement, Abrams has founded multiple organizations devoted to voting rights, training and hiring young people of color, and tackling social issues at both the state and national levels. She is the 2021 recipient of the inaugural Social Justice Impact Award from the NAACP Image Awards.
