March 18: Act Queer! Movement Building in Queer Organizing

Queers for Economic Justice

Queers for Economic Justice invites you to a March 18th teleconference to discuss movement building in queer organizing.  They write:

Many of the mainstream LGBTQ organizations focus on single issue, electoral and policy based organizing/advocacy. Whereas the work done by many of the radical, grassroots LGBTQ groups focuses on grassroots strategies, with a heavy focus on movement building. Often we’re told this work doesn’t have impact, or doesn’t have measurable goals. What is movement building and why is it a cornerstone of the grassroots movement? What are the strategies being utilized by different queer groups to build the movement? What has been successful and what has failed in the past?
