Description

A lifetime of experience in social change informs this guide to building and conducting nonviolent direct action campaigns. George Lakey shares his expertise, gained from decades helping direct action tactics flourish in the civil rights movement of the 1960s and beyond. Lakey draws on successful campaigns worldwide to illustrate what works, what doesn't, and why. He offers practical advice on designing a campaign, avoiding burnout within groups, and building a movement that can achieve real progressive victories. This book shows how nonviolent direct action can be used to create lasting change for justice, peace, and a sustainable economy.
