Dana Neily – a 21 year old from Victoria, British Columbia, has been flung into the headlines by writing the book that has opened everyone’s eyes.
A collection of short stories with a running narrative, the book addresses such issues as bullying, poverty, and environmental non-sustainability and offers solutions using knowledge from the world’s leading scientists and humanitarians. The book is largely fiction but contains some of the life stories of real people. The book exposes clearly the inequality crisis’ raging in the Middle East as well as the ones hiding in our own backyards in North America.
The book has been nominated for several awards and has also been put on the banned books list by several groups that claim it is an alarmist attempt to force sinful views down the throats of law-abiding citizens. This has only seemed to increase the book’s popularity among most demographics.
Ms. Neily is a known volunteer at both Amnesty International and Free the Children. She is preparing to enter law school to further her causes of human rights, but says that she will never stop writing and will continue to use this talent to make the world a better place.
