Practical Guides to Community Activism: A List inspired by gal-dem
Noor
"For lots of people, the nuts & bolts of practical political action can often be daunting. Which is why@galdemzineis launching our brand new 'How To' series – a collection of straightforward guides on how to do everything from start a campaign to setting up a food co-op." - Moya Lothian-Mclean, Politics editor at gal-dem
We're so inspired by this terrific new series from the editorial team at gal-dem - the brill new media platform and magazine centering the voices of people of colour from marginalised genders.
First up is their "guide to launching a successful lobbying campaign" by Kimi Chaddah.
We thought the series, "dedicated to demystifying practical steps involved in community activism" would be complimented by these terrific books, 16 works on practical activism to help make engagement and participation in civil society part of your everyday.
