Community organizing, demystified. If you're subscribed to our emails, it's probably because you care about our work and social justice. But how much do you know about community organizing? Are you interested in organizing as a profession, but wish you knew more? What do we mean when we say we "build power," anyway?
Introducing Gamaliel 101s, a series of blogs, videos and more designed to help you learn about all things organizing from experts throughout the Gamaliel Network. First up, we're taking a deep dive into a new topic in community organizing every month.
Keep an eye on our social media and visit gamaliel.org/101s to see new entries. Our first video, featuring National Training Director Sr. Cheryl Liske, is up now!
Transformational Justice in Action is holding a social media action, #UnlockTheVote, throughout the month of September. We're raising awareness of the issue of disenfranchisement among people with conviction histories, letting people with conviction histories know that they can vote in some states and circumstances, and promoting our #UnlockTheVote campaign.
Keep an eye out for our posts all month long, and share them when they come across your timeline. Want to get involved more directly? Contact your local Gamaliel affiliate to learn more, or reach out to [email protected]. |
