Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Synopsis:This latest work by legendary social activist, musician, and author Kahn outlines many of the practical tactics organizers use, but also emphasizes community organizing as a way of thinking and a way of life. Synopsis:
With a Little Creativity, Everyday People Can Change the World
If you yearn to help make the world a better place but wonder how to do it, look no further. In this unique book, legendary organizer and musician Si Kahn regales us with entertaining, funny, sad, dramatic, and inspiring tales of his work in some of the most important progressive struggles of the past fifty years—the Southern civil rights movement, the Harlan County coal miners’ strike, the fights to abolish prison privatization and immigrant family detention. Si addresses not just strategies and tactics but how creative community organizing can prod us to learn new skills, encourage us to take risks, and transform us into practical visionaries for justice.
