Resumen del Editor

“A brave, powerful memoir” (People) that will change the way we look at identity and equality in this country, from the activist elected as the first openly transgender state senator in U.S. history

“The energy and vigor Sarah has brought to the fight for equality is ever present in this book.”—Vice President Kamala Harris

“If you’re living your own internal struggle, this book can help you find a way to live authentically, fully, and freely. . . . Let it show that we are all created equal and entitled to be treated with dignity and respect.”—President Joe Biden, from the foreword

Before she became the first transgender person to speak at a national political convention in 2016 at the age of twenty-six, Sarah McBride struggled with the decision to come out—not just to her family but to the students of American University, where she was serving as student body president. She’d known she was a girl from her earliest memories, but it wasn’t until the Facebook post announcing her truth went viral that she realized just how much impact her story could have on the country.

Four years later, McBride was one of the nation’s most prominent transgender activists, walking the halls of the White House, advocating inclusive legislation, and addressing the country in the midst of a heated presidential election. She had also found her first love and future husband, Andy, a trans man and fellow activist, who complemented her in every way . . . until cancer tragically intervened.

Informative, heartbreaking, and profoundly empowering, Tomorrow Will Be Different is McBride’s story of love and loss and a powerful entry point into the LGBTQ community’s battle for equal rights and what it means to be openly transgender. From issues like bathroom access to health care to gender in America, McBride weaves the important political and cultural milestones into a personal journey that will open hearts and change minds.

As McBride urges: “We must never be a country that says there’s only one way to love, only one way to look, and only one way to live.”

The fight for equality and freedom has only just begun.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“McBride's story is touching, thought-provoking, at times tear-jerking, and absolutely worth the read for all who care about equality.”—Harper’s Bazaar

“Sarah McBride's memoir is a must-read, offering encouragement while showing that the fight for equality is just getting started.”—Paste

“In a world where the most vitriolic voices often sound the loudest, McBride's story reveals that most people are not prone to hate.”—The Washington Post

I wish I could give it more than 5 stars

This is an important book that should be read by all. It should be required reading for all people. Filled with loving moments and heartbreaking tragedy. Whether you struggle with your gender identity, as I do, or you are affirmed in it this book is a window into the soul of the LGBTQ movement. Because of this beautiful book I am regretting every 5 star rating I've given in the past. This book is truly profound and I have no doubt that in the future it will be held up as an influencial work in the greater American non-fiction genre of literature. Do yourself a favor and buy this book.

Powerful and Inspirational

Sarah reading this memoir in her own voice is so powerful, and inspiring to hear about her journey and love.

Powerful, thought provoking, and awe-inspiring

What an amazing and powerful story, told by a remarkable and talented person! It evoked many tears, but was well worth it. Sarah’s journey is inspiring on many levels and has lit a fire under me to do more to ensure equal rights for all.

Representation matters

As a transgender person who never saw people like me much of what Sarah writes about how she feels and her journey resonated with my own struggles to fully embrace who I am. It is a story I will listen to again

Listened straight through beginning to end!

A touching and moving memoir about the problems faced by transgender people and the struggles for equality!

Must listen

Whether or not you need an education on what it’s like to be LGBTQ in today’s society, this is a must listen. Recommend this to someone you know that is looking to open their mind, their eyes, and their heart

👍

loved it. positive, realistic. a few sad parts. the author did a great job narrating.

Wonderful contemporary history of the struggle for LGBTQ rights in the US, told by a young woman who was in the middle of it

Well written, melding history and the personal. Story of a young woman’s coming out as trans, marrying, being widowed, all while pursuing equality for all.

A political memoir for the beleaguered progressive

Sarah McBride's story is a must read for political junkies looking for a light at the end of the bigotry tunnel.

An Important Historical Record

Sarah's book about her coming to terms with being a transgender woman and then becoming one of the foremost activists for the LGBTQ movement, including being a spokesperson for the Human Rights Campaign and the first transgender soaker at the DNC is a documentation of not only get coming out but if a fast- changing history. Very interesting and moving.
