Changes: An Oral History of Tupac Shakur

by Sheldon Pearce Author

Although Tupac died twenty-five years ago, his life, music, and message remain as relevant as ever. Following the worldwide protests in the wake of the George Floyd murder, Tupac's song “Changes” became the unofficial anthem for the ACAB movement. It was so popular it launched onto the iTunes charts. While that is great for Tupac's legacy, the underlying systemic racism, police brutality, mass incarceration, income inequality, and failing education system, in short, the crumbling of the American Empire, that led to those protests is a bigger problem than ever. In this volume, author Sheldon Pearce pens a comprehensive account of Tupac's life and legacy. Utilizing interviews with dozens of people who knew him, Changes portrays a complex image of a complex individual. Death is not the greatest loss in life: not reading Changes: An Oral History of Tupac Shakur is.
