Hi ilana--
Tomorrow, some of the best organizers in our movement are launching Beautiful Trouble -- The Creative Activist's Toolbox for the 21st Century. The launch event is here in DC, and we wanted to make sure you knew about it.
When: Wednesday, August 29th, 6:30 pm
Where: Busboys and Poets, 2021 14th Street NW, Washington DC
RSVP here.
I've known many of the organizers who contributed to this book for years, and what they've put together here is one of the most valuable resources for organizing that I've seen.
We've seen how the web and technology play a role in social uprisings; from the Arab Spring's use of social networks to the Occupy movement's use of design and tools, creative activism has sparked the hearts of minds of ordinary people everywhere.
Beautiful Trouble tells that story and invites us to join the discussion about what's next.
I hope you'll come down to celebrate the launch, meet some of the authors, and check out this great book.
Hope to see you there,
Judith
