(048) The Art Of Yes And... ft. Rebel Steps by Mandatory OT published on 2020-04-19T23:29:31Z What’s up Fellow Workers! It feels like it’s been two years since our last episode. There are weeks where decades happen… you know the quote. Anyway, Chris n’ Dave from the WV IWW sit down with Amy and Liz from the AWESOME organizing “how-to” podcast Rebel Steps (@rebelsteps). COVID still has us all locked down, but we do not let that keep us down. We assess the situation we’re still in on a personal level. We shift to talking about the importance of reaching out (safely) to your neighbors and the importance of starting from that point of compassion. Communication meshing with the uniqueness of this moment leads to times ripe for organizing — the most present being this rare mass moment of the Rent Strike. The Left needs to seize this opportunity just as the Right has. We also hit the big question: What can we do to take care of ourselves while also maintaining some kind or organizing and revolutionary fervor? Read theory, but be grounded in reality. Write up a plan with baby steps. We can do it together <3 Thanks so so so much to Amy and Liz for hopping on with us.
