Often groups working for social change feel conflicted about the best strategy for doing so. Often, when the legislative process is involved, compromises must be made that can often feel like 'selling out' or sacrificing a core value. Is this necessary?
Students in different schools learn different theories about social change. How can we better work together for positive change?
Recent history is full of examples - hate crimes legislation, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act of 2007, community revitalization. Come to learn, listen, contribute, discuss, and be passionate.
