SUMMARY:People Power Change: Organizing For Democratic Renewal
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation between legendary civil rights organizer Marshall Ganz and Professor Manuel Pastor of the USC Dornsife Equity Research Institute on Friday\, October 4. They will explore how students\, faculty and staff can maximize our people power for change. Stay for a delicious lunch and make connections among those who are working for those changes on this campus and beyond. \nREGISTER AT HERE \nThe event is being hosted by the USC Annenberg Innovation Lab. Their description of the experience is quoted here: \n“Marshall’s new book\, “People Power Change: Organizing for Democratic Renewal” is at once a practical guide on how to reclaim democratic power and an inspiring manifesto for collective organizing as an essential driver of democracy. The book draws on the values\, ideas\, and skills driving an actionable framework of how to do it: the creation and substance of relationships\, the fuel of values and narrative\, the resources and power of strategy\, the accountability of action\, and the necessity of structure. \nMarshall Ganz has spent his life dedicated to the craft of organizing people to enact the change they want to see in the world\, and this book is the culmination of his teaching\, research\, and work. His many experiences include advocating for civil rights with Bob Moses and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee\, 16 years organizing with Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers\, developing the grassroots strategy for President Obama’s 2008 election campaign\, and decades training future leaders at Harvard’s Kennedy School. \nThis event has limited capacity and RSVP is required – guests without USC ID will be emailed a guest pass QR code for campus access on the day of the event. \nCo-sponsored by: Equity Research Institute\, Center for the Political Future\, Arts and Climate Collective\, Arts in Action\, Center on Communication Leadership and Policy.”
