If our movements are serious about changing the system, what are the strategies that get us from here to there? We know this work is about more than just building projects or winning elections. It’s about governing society for the benefit of all and implementing our visions for the economy at all levels. With that in mind, what do we need to shift in our thinking for our movements to succeed? What are we not doing enough of? What are we doing too much of? What are the opportunities in front of us in this particular historical moment? This CommonBound 2014 closing plenary reflects on these questions with a powerful line-up of community leaders who bring their diverse and broad experiences to the table.

Speakers:
Makani Themba (Higher Ground Change Strategies)
Kali Akuno (Cooperation Jackson)
Jacobo Rivero (Department of Culture and Sports in the city of Madrid)
Erica Smiley (Jobs With Justice)
