Stacey AbramsA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more.
In the Preface to the paperback edition, Abrams distinguishes between “concession” and “compromise” (21). How do you understand this distinction? Compare this argument to her later assertion that “collaboration and compromise are necessary tools in gaining and holding power” (212).
Consider the book’s Epigraph by Audre Lorde, “When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid” (16). What is the significance of Lorde’s statement for the themes of the book?
Abrams admits at times that the advice she offers is simple or cliché, as in the case of “first things first,” in which she encourages readers to be guided by their passions. Do you find Abrams rises above cliché in her advice? Which counsels do you find most insightful?
