If we are going to organize and mobilize the movement, we must work together effectively. Humans are complicated, but we can do remarkable things when we collaborate as communities of care and action.
So, what does it mean to be an organizer? In this episode I talk about some of the core problems that can fracture a well intentioned group of activists, as well as offer solutions so we can create the movement we need, including:
-
The role of an organizer in building alliances and supporting existing movements.
-
The challenges faced by older activists and the importance of inclusive strategies.
-
Insights on organizing effective protests, including logistics and crafting impactful narratives.
-
The role of social media in modern activism.
-
The importance of celebrating victories to sustain motivation and community spirit.
-
Encouraging ordinary people to make extraordinary impacts in the fight for justice and democracy.
