What's on top?
Our big news is probably a very poorly kept secret. Just last week we launched our new Campaign Strategy Guide - the first instalment in our 6-volume Power Power Manual. The Guide is selling well online and in hard copy, and feedback has been amazingly encouraging. Many of the 24 how-to (process) guides are familiar to tCA subscribers and folks who've participated in our workshops. Some are new. Curriculum development is an addiction for some of our team, and we've cooked up new strategy workshop ideas just since publishing the guide including the 'Assessing Political Opportunity' process guide featured below. We'd love your feedback if you try it out.
We're on the brink of offering places in next year's Community Organising Fellowship. More than 50 terrific activists and organisers applied, making short-listing a tough gig. Next year's four workshops are taking shape too, with some great new sessions and guest facilitators planned.
This month's enews includes a review of Clare Land's new book 'Decolonizing Sollidarity', written to help non-Indigenous activists support Indigenous struggles. Clare is in New York this week, holding book launch events at Bluestockings bookstore and activist centre on Sunday and Tuesday. Folks who haven't yet explored the tCA website might like to know we have a great collection of book reviews with web links to sites where you can purchase most featured texts. Be sure to drop us a line to promote your latest publication... or books that are transforming your campaigns.
All the very best for success in your social change work.
