Our Summer Activist’s Series continues Thursday August 14! Come join us to learn more about the how and why of our fight against fascism.

• How do we organize a protest, and plan a campaign, to create tangible changes in our lives here and now?

• How do we practice daily actions to protect each other from the grips of an authoritarian state?

• How do we connect across communities and issues?

• What have we learned from resistance movements in the U.S. and elsewhere?

• What have we learned from each other here in Charlottesville? Join as many sessions as you can – let’s build power!

Mapping Power, Building Movements: Strategy for the Long Haul

How can we create effective strategies to make the changes we want in our community? Strategy involves identifying a goal, assessing available resources and opportunities, and designing a series of steps that bring more and more community members into collective action towards that goal. This session will discuss key elements of how to design strategies that will help us win our goals and grow our movements.
