Basil Sparks

Reclaim Your Voice, Reshape the Future

Sparks challenges the status quo of those who feel sidelined and shutdown, those believing that it is better to remain silent than to be shamed into silence. He reminds readers that to shape a better, collective future, it is crucial that they courageously find their voice. The book is thoughtfully provocative, but also sensitive.

In Finding My Lost Voice Sparks steps carefully into controversial conversations that have polarised the world. He is reflective, inspiring readers to think carefully and to engage constructively with each discussion; whether that is white privilege, homosexuality, body image, or whether it is better to support Israel or Palestine. He persuades readers to reject mob mentality, and to embrace free speech whilst learning to think independently.

Sparks’s unique lens is that of a heterosexual, white, Christian man in his late 50’s. He speaks as a person some may prefer to cancel! But he speaks, nonetheless. He calls readers to embrace three indispensable qualities that must flavour every engagement: justice, kindness, and humility.

Standing at the intersection of conviction and complacency, readers must choose: Will they settle for a life of quiet desperation? Or will they ignore the voices trying to silence them? Will they find their lost voice?
