"People ask if I am a journalist or an activist. The truth is that I
am just a journalist who asks questions, but one who does in fact take a
stand."
Jorge Ramos
After thirty fascinating years uncovering the hard truth, Emmy Award
winning journalist Jorge Ramos opens up for the first time about
life-altering lessons by sharing captivating never-before-told stories.
Widely recognized for his unapologetic, no-holds-barred approach to
interviewing global leaders, business titans, democratic policy makers,
and dictators who threaten to derail those principles, Ramos unearths
their one common trait they were all rebels at one point in their
lives.
Rebels are different. They decided to challenge the prevailing status
quo. Sometimes they rebelled to change a regime, other times to prevent
abuse or discrimination, but in most cases they strived to correct an
injustice.
In Take a Stand, Ramos looks back on groundbreaking interviews with
rebels, such as President Barack Obama, Supreme Court Justice Sonia
Sotomayor, Spike Lee, Barbara Walters, Fidel Castro, and more. Candid
and at times controversial, Ramos draws invaluable awareness of issues
that influence the mind-set of the largest minority in the country
Latinos and how they will undoubtedly shape not only Presidential
elections but also the future of America."
