Friends and family,

Looking to build momentum in this powerful time of people's movement?
Hungry for organizing insights and curriculum to use in your community
and beyond to build up Occupy and the overall movement of the 99%?

Please share this far and wide.

Catalyst Project and I teamed up to put together the Catalyzing
Liberation Toolkit: Anti-Racist Organizing to Build the 99% Movement.


http://www.organizingupgrade.com/2012/02/anti-racist-organizing-to-build-the-99-movement/



Just a few highlights:

•  Popular education anti-racist, economic justice, collective
liberation curriculum from Catalyst Project.  Exercises to help groups
discuss vision, strategy, leadership history of white supremacy and
capitalism, ruling class divide and rule tactics, the division between
the rich and the rest, and ways to build powerful multiracial
movements for justice.

•  Curriculum and lessons from Occupy groups in Phoenix, D.C.,
Pittsburgh, and New Orleans.  Ways to bring collective
liberation/anti-oppression analysis into facilitation and consensus
trainings as well as workshops on anti-racism and barriers to mass
participation in Occupy.

•  Interviews with visionary long time organizers about movement
building, anti-racist organizing in white communities (rural working
class, and Southern queer) , Indigenous anti-colonization organizing
with suggestions for allies.

•  Curriculum from Paul Kivel and Tools for Change on challenging male
supremacy, economics 101, and building effective and healthy
organizing culture.

•  Essays on anti-racist organizing in the Occupy movement.

Please share this with your people, post to blogs, websites, Facebook,
and email it to your lists.

Let's build, let's win, let's create,

-Chris Crass
