Event Description
To meet this moment, we all need to be movement organizers, at least a little bit; whether we're organizing for rallies, service ministry, or advocacy meetings. Long-time organizer Michael Ansara will offer thoughts and reflections on what any organizer or community leader—clergy or lay, secular or faithful—should know as we all strive to be present in the work at hand, of this moment. Michael began as an organizer with the Students for a Democratic Society, worked on various campaigns and issues, and served as Executive Director of Mass Fair Share. His comments will draw from his new book The Hard Work of Hope, A Memoir.
