Building Effective Coalitions: Katherine Golub Interviews Dr. Christine Petit
Note sull'episodio
This week I'm re-airing a conversation I got to have as a guest on the podcast Conflict Decoded, hosted by Katherine Golub. Here's how she introduced it:
Movement elder and co-founder of Sweet Honey in the Rock, Bernice Johnson Reagon, wrote: "You don't go into coalition because you like it. The only reason you would consider trying to team up with somebody who could possibly kill you is because that it is the only way you can figure that you can stay alive."
If you're working across differences, grappling with conflict in your coalition work, or just want to become as effective as you can possibly be in building solutions to complex challenges for a community you love, this conversation is for you.
In this episode, we talk about how to honor both the competitive and collaborative parts of ourselves, what it takes to move beyond territoriality and build the coalitions we need to win, how to keep going when the movement feels like it's losing more than it's winning, and why setting precedent is such a crucial lever for creating widespread change.
