Mann, E: Transformative Organizing - A Handbook

Transformative Organizing - a must-have in the toolkit for anyone looking to overcome capitalism. Author Eric Mann systematically reflects on his decades of experience as an organizer in the USA, drawing on the legacies of his mentors: from the civil rights movement, labor activism, struggles for social and economic improvements, to combating the repercussions of the climate catastrophe and advocating for LGBTQ rights. This has resulted in an encouraging, inspiring, and practical book. Through memorable, concrete narratives and clear structuring, it empowers readers to take action now and imparts the skills we need to make societal conditions dance. This book is a call to learn from the experiences of international movements and apply them in the here and now. "Change is urgently needed. We must reclaim and rebuild true democracy. The organizing skills that Eric Mann shares with all of us are the lifeblood for democracy, human rights, social and economic justice, and the survival of our planet." (Vandana Shiva, author of Beyond Growth).
