5 Lessons from Modern Social Movements
Practical skills and tactics that have been proven to work
Social movements shape society as we know it. From culture, to popular opinion, and policies that are far reaching and impact all of us on a global scale. Not all movements are successful in achieving their goals, in fact for the vast majority one could argue that the work is never done. However, we can learn from their successes. So what do winning movements have in common?
That's a loaded question, and to get our feet wet we've selected 5 lessons that we can take away from successful movements and apply them to our very own organizing efforts. In this course we'll explore a case study to go with each concept and some actionable items you can implement to help you be more successful in your organizing efforts.
