Notes

Description
"'Don't tell nobody our business,' Michael Tubbs's mother often told him growing up. For Michael, that meant a lot of things: don't tell anyone about the day-to-day struggle of being Black and broke in Stockton, CA. ... And also don't tell anyone about the particular joys of growing up with three 'moms': a Nana who never let him miss church, an Auntie who'd take him to the library any time, and a mother, 'She-Daddy,' who schooled him in the wisdom of hip-hop and taught him never to take no for an answer. So for a long time Michael didn't tell anyone his story, but as he went on to a scholarship at Stanford and an internship in the Obama White House, he began to realize the power of his experience, the need for his perspective in the halls of power. By the time he returned to Stockton to become, in 2016 at age 26, its first Black mayor and the youngest-ever mayor of a major American city, he knew his story meant something"--,Provided by publisher.
