Currently reading 'Beautiful Solutions' and re-exploring the online 'toolkit for liberation' resources the folk at #BeautifulTrouble maintain.
The curation of examples in the book offers timely inspiration of how we can participate in local actions, such as housing collectives and worker cooperatives, in ways that contribute to broader efforts towards building an international #SolidarityEconomy
Very excited to get my copy of Beautiful Solutions soon... new book coming from the #BeautifulTrouble folks. Have a look:
One of the best websites on #Activism is "Beautiful Trouble" (in several languages). A wealth of information on stories, tactics, theories, principles and methodologies. An example: the power of ritual.
"The ritual you choose need not be elaborate for it to have a powerful impact. You can imbue your guerrilla theatre with some of the power of ritual just by borrowing its rhythms. Imagine two characters on the street: a military general and a politician, slowly tossing a huge sack of money back and forth across a wide expanse. In between, a regular Joe, sitting forlornly, watches the sack sail back and forth. Nearby, a spokesperson hands out a fact sheet that tells the rest of the story. Often this kind of nonverbal, ritual-like performance, which repeats a simple but visually arresting motion, can be more powerful and effective than a full-length skit crammed with facts and figures".

Definitely a useful tool for teaching about social change organizing, and supporting organizing in practice.
#IdentityCorrection is enjoying quite the renaissance since the bird site jumped the shark.
‘Eli Lilly’s stock dipped Friday morning after someone paid $8 to verify a Twitter handle resembling that of the pharmaceutical giant and posted: “We are excited to announce insulin is free now.”
‘Insulin, of course, is not free.’
