Let’s build savvy grassroots movements to expand the range of what is “politically feasible.”

Elected officials, newspaper editorial boards, and other official power-holders shy away from making the bold, humane changes for social and economic justice because they say those bold reforms are not “politically feasible.”

Our job is to organize strategically from the grassroots to build movements that expand the range of what is “politically feasible,” so our demands will become obviously necessary instead of dismissed as unrealistic.

 

Instead of lamenting “ain’t-it-awful,” let’s change the awful realities by organizing strategically savvy grassroots movements!

I encourage you to SIGN UP NOW for the series of 6 weekly workshops starting on YOUR CHOICE of either SUN SEPT 20 (1:30 pm) or MON SEPT 21 (6:30 pm).

Also, I will offer these workshops again during the autumn of 2020 and beyond.  I can custom-tailor them to particular issues if we have a group of people who want to focus especially on their hot issues (e.g., climate, criminal justice, foreign policy, economic justice, or …).
