In a world grappling with rising authoritarianism, attacks on LGBTQ+ rights, and deep divisions, Finding My Humanity is more relevant than ever.
Ryan Ubuntu Olson’s memoir is not just a story of personal transformation—it is a call to action, a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, and a roadmap for those seeking to create change in an increasingly uncertain world in these authoritarian times.
Born into a rural, conservative community in Colorado, Ryan struggled to navigate his identity in a world that often sought to diminish it. What began as a deeply personal journey of self-discovery—facing discrimination, love, heartbreak, and loss—became something far greater. Thrust into activism on a conservative Catholic campus, Ryan’s courage to speak out against injustice catapulted him onto the national and international stages. From there, he embarked on a global mission, working alongside thought leaders, human rights advocates, and communities fighting for survival and dignity of all people, everywhere, in all their diversity.
Traveling to the far corners of the world, from Kenya to Jamaica, Peru to Malawi, Cambodia, to Geneva, Ryan became a leading voice in the fight for LGBTQ+ dignity and human rights. His journey took him from the front lines of activism in the US, to supporting advocates around the world in different countries, to the halls of the United Nations, shaping policies, and advocating for those who have been silenced for too long.
But Finding My Humanity is more than just one man’s story—it is a testament to the power of turning one’s ‘why’ into their ‘how’. It is a guide for anyone searching for purpose, a deeper understanding of our interconnectedness as human beings, and the courage to step forward in the face of adversity. Through his experiences, Ryan offers readers a roadmap to transforming personal convictions into meaningful action.
Praise for Finding My Humanity:
“Ryan Ubuntu Olson has not just shared his wonderful and personal journey, he has illuminated a path for others to travel—to deepen connections, understand one’s purpose, and strengthen their own humanity as well.”
—Neil Giuliano, Former President & CEO, GLAAD and San Francisco AIDS Foundation
“A stunning exploration of the beauty of our interconnectedness and the power of our capacity to love... Ryan’s fearless consideration of vulnerability and marginalization is an urgent call to embrace the shared humanity that binds us all.”
—Saraounia Mboka-Boyer, Development Change Maker and Inclusion Engineer
“Reading Finding My Humanity feels like watching the trailer to a movie you cannot wait to see. Ryan’s life journey—filled with highs and lows, adventures in far-off lands, and poignant relationships—is a privilege to witness.”
—Chloe Schwenke, Founder & President, Center for Values in International Development
For those who have ever felt unseen, for those striving to create change in their communities, and for those seeking the courage to embrace love and authenticity in all its forms, Finding My Humanity is a beacon of hope, especially during these times in our modern world where people have lost faith in one another and fear the unknown. Let this book take your breath away and inspire you to build a life of meaning and purpose, and to give back to our shared world- indeed- our shared humanity.

Descripción de la tienda
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
