National Rising Tide Book Club - Canberra In Person Meet Up
Advertisement
You are invited to join Rising Tide’s new (National) Book Club!! The four-session book club will bring people from around the country together to read, connect, learn from inspiring case studies, and explore movement strategy.
We will be reading This Is an Uprising by Mark and Paul Engler, which is a powerful book on how ordinary people can use nonviolent resistance to build social movements and win transformative change. This book is core to Rising Tide's strategy, and we will be discussing learnings we can apply to our own organising.
What: Four fortnightly sessions, reading ~3 chapters of This is an Uprising before each. We will start with an all in intro, then break into smaller groups (either online or in person) for discussion. This week we will be discussing chapters 9, 10 and conclusion
When: Wednesday evenings, 6:30pm AEST
Where: Our local Canberra meet up is in person at the Conservation Council, but if you can't make that, you can also join online via Zoom.
Rising Tide can provide support to access copies of the book if needed, more information will be emailed when you RSVP.
