Former Title: New Organizing Modalities
We are living through a period of uncertainty and upheaval. In this context, one thing is clear: The need for coordinated, collective action is urgent. We must come together to:
- block threats to our democratic values;
- bridge across difference to foster broad-based movements with the widest participation; and
- build together the future we want to live within our communities.
Join Julia Roig and Jarvis Williams of The Horizons Project—leaders in advancing the Block, Bridge, Build organizing framework—to explore effective ways to protect democracy and advocate across difference in divided times.
The session will provide actionable guidance for social change leaders to:
- set organizational and coalition strategy using the Block, Bridge, Build framework
- manage the many paradoxes in this work:
- staying future-oriented and hopeful while acknowledging and redressing past and current harms
- balancing spaciousness to envision the future and urgency to respond to threats
- including diverse voices while being accountable for movement outcomes
This webinar is ideal for nonprofit, philanthropic, and civil society staff and leadership committed to effective organizing toward a just, multiracial democracy.
