Transforming community organizing

Earlier this year, an article I co-authored with Katy Heins was published in the inaugural issue of the Community Organizing Journal. In this paper, we explore the benefits of using a liberatory feminist framework for reimagining the field of community organizing. Our argument is that this approach provides a critical path toward building healthy, just, and inclusive environments, empowering communities to effectively challenge power dynamics and create meaningful, lasting change. The relevance of this work, particularly the call for structural change and consistent practice of our principles, has become more pronounced in recent months.
