What We Believe
“The right of a man to stand upright as a human being in his own country comes before the questions of the kind of society he will create once he has that right. Freedom is the only thing that matters until it is won.” —Julius Nyerere
From our founding, Catalyst Press has been committed to publishing books that not only entertain, but create empathy and understanding and say something powerful about the world we live in; current events have only strengthened that commitment. We stand with communities all over the world who are demanding equality, freedom, and justice. We are now, and always, committed to anti-racism, not just in words, but in policies, actions, and activism. We unequivocally believe that Black Lives Matter.
We understand that these are difficult times, and that for many of us, this is a time when the weight of racism is heavier than ever. Know that for those who are struggling, we are thinking of you and we support you. For those who want to be allies to those who are bearing more right now, use this time to listen, to learn, to speak up, to stand in solidarity. We care about words, and right now, our voices are powerful. We can’t, and won’t, and shouldn’t be silent. We believe in equity and justice, not just today, but always.
