MOBILIZING & CREATING COALITIONS
DESCRIPTION
Together we will learn how to use story circles as a way of uniting, mobilizing, and honoring the histories of immigrant communities. And as a framework for creating coalitions based on different expressions of power: power within, power with, and power to. The goals of this workshop are to understand the framework of story circles and how to put it into praxis, to draw connections between the stories shared and how these could become tools of organizing by creating “power with,” “power to,” and “power within."
