Daring to Struggle, Daring to Win tells the fascinating true story of an individual radical organizer turned independent Chicago city council member, and her forty year struggle for justice in Chicago.

Helen Shiller went from radical anti-war activist in Wisconsin, to a member of a collective of white allies of the Black Panther Party in Chicago, to an elected city council person who helped brake the back of the racialized opposition Harold Washington, Chicago's first Black mayor.

Shiller fought, when few other did in the historic fight against gentrification, in a unique economically and racially mixed Chicago community on the Northside. With insight into historic community organizing and political battles in Chicago from the 1970s through 2010, this book details numerous policy fights and conflicts in Chicago during this time, revealing both consistent themes on power conflicts and repeating political battles, that remain relevant to this day.

Daring to Struggle, Daring to Win is a compelling, insightful, must-read for all those struggling for a better world today.
