Fuckup Nights is a global movement born in Mexico that now spans over 300 cities worldwide — including Houston. At each gathering, local leaders, entrepreneurs, activists, and artists take the stage to candidly share their biggest professional failure.

Instead of avoiding the topic, these sessions normalize learning from mistakes, spark honest conversations, and foster a culture of vulnerability, innovation, and community support.

This book is foundational for those who feel disconnected from traditional politics or unsure how to contribute. Liu demystifies power and provides a roadmap for civic agency—particularly valuable in the face of polarization, inequality, and distrust. It’s a call to move from cynicism to creativity, helping readers unlock their own potential to shape institutions, narratives, and outcomes.
