Join us for the launch weekend of Armando Moritz-Chapelliquen's first book, A Neighbor's Primer to Organizing, Advocacy, and the Urgency of Community. Socialist Organizer Joel Atkinson will lead discussion on takeaways from the new book and participate in an applied power mapping exercise, demonstrating the importance of building community in an unsettled time.
“In our era of political, economic, and social instability, individuals may feel compelled to act without knowing how to do so. While organizers and advocates have been professionalized into distinct career paths, the reality is that untrained and unpaid individuals have often been the driving forces behind history's bend toward justice. This book will equip readers with the language behind organizing and advocacy, guidance to develop the skills necessary to advance campaigns, and the reminder that this work is best accomplished with and through community.”
