stuff I learned about organzing

Submitted by asfenchel@yahoo.com on Sat, 06/20/2009 - 9:54am.
I am a believer in the concept that there is strength in numbers. One of the major strengths in a group is the ability of its members to share experiences and advice with other members. Therefore, I think that it would be helpful if people would share some of the things they learned from previous organizing drives. We must start teaching each other what we have learned from our experiences so we can take on the bosses better. I am happy to get the ball rolling by sharing some of the things I have learned after a few years of salting.

Due to a technical problem at the radio studio, they were unable to patch through my phone call for the scheduled debate with the Libertarian Party representative. Therefore, this show will be done next Saturday, June 20 at the same time and place.

An international socialist grouping of which I am a part has recently published a major perspectives document. This document seeks to outline the major forces at work in the world today. It does NOT pretend to be the final say about everything, nor does it pretend to have all the answers. It seeks to raise some important (in my opinion) questions and pose some major issues. Those who find this blog site interesting I think will also find this document interesting and useful. It can be found at: http://www.workersinternational.net
