Episode description

In episode #283 of Talking Radical Radio (August 21, 2018), Scott Neigh interviews Amara Possian and Jodie Tonita. Both of them have connections, of various sorts, with social change work oriented towards building movements in both Canada and the United States. Both have experience with grassroots organizing on the ground, and both are now involved in contributing to movements in ways that are a step or two back from the frontlines and instead focus more on strategic thinking, long-term work, and the infrastructure necessary to build the collective power it will take to win. They talk about their movement building work, about leadership in movement contexts, and – despite the important differences between the two countries – about what movements in Canada can learn from what's happening in the United States.
