3 ratings3 reviews
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It should be noted that Zach Hunter, the author of “Be The Change” turned 15 just before this book was published. Yes, that’s 15, as in ‘fifteen years old’.Wow.Quick read, great stories of freedom from slavery and a great challenging message from one 15-year-old to a nation FULL of able-bodied, passionate young people who could very well change the world.Zach continuously calls himself an abolitionist - one who desires to abolish modern-day slavery. He is passionate and well-versed in current trends in slavery around the world. He draws from numerous examples of today and hundreds of years ago of regular people making a difference by standing up for what they know to be right.I’m sure that the Church will be hearing more from Zach Hunter in years to come!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Zach Hunter is a 16 year old who calls himself a modern-day abolitionist. He launched the Loose Change to Loosen Chains campaign while he was in seventh grade. His goal is to have slavery wiped from the planet in his lifetime. Most of us think that slavery no longer exists, however, we’d be wrong. Modern-day slavery is people working in brick kilns, rice mills, fishing villages, or brothels. It is human beings being traded like chattels. In the book, Hunter helps us understand the reality of modern-day slavery by providing startling statistics, real life stories from former slaves and practical tools to mobilize people into action. Zach Hunter parallels the powerful stories of those who fought for change centuries ago, such as William Wilberforce and Harriet Tubman, with examples of contemporary people fighting for justice, such as Mother Teresa, Bono and Jon Foreman from the music group Switchfoot. He believes that today’s generation can abolish slavery and looks at the elements people need to make amazing changes in the world; elements such as courage, leadership and compassion. This young man, responding to God’s call, is encouraging all of us to ignite our passion and start making changes.
