A class in non-hierarchical campaign organizing.

This class is for anyone wanting to further social, economic and environmental justice. No age requirements, no political experience necessary, experts are welcome.

This class can be designed in three different ways.

  1. The class actively participates in a single local campaign.
  2. Individuals within the class pursue different campaigns and use class time to compare and contrast.
  3. Study past campaigns of the class’s choosing and learn what’s possible today.
  • Learn how to organize locally more effectively by getting your message out to those who need to hear it.
  • Learn offensive and defensive techniques that adapt to different times and situations.
  • Learn how to use the media to get free publicity for your campaign.
  • Workshops featuring a wide variety of mediums (not limited to the production of flyers, radio, theatre, digital photography, news reporting for print and radio, press releases, how to use the phone, email, internet, zines, stickers, newspapers, silk-screening, button making, banner making, and many more). Class participants will also learn how to choose mediums most effective for the campaign.
