Book Club gathering and Discussion

  • Fare Thee Well Wholeness Center 151 Pond Brook Road, rt 66 Huntington, MA, 01050 United States (map)

An urgent and accessible handbook for peaceful protesters, activists, and community organizers—anyone trying to defend their rights, hold their government accountable, or change the world

Blueprint for Revolution will teach you how to
• make oppression backfire by playing your opponents’ strongest card against them
• identify the “almighty pillars of power” in order to shift the balance of control
• dream big, but start small: learn how to pick battles you can win
• listen to what people actually care about in order to incorporate their needs into your revolutionary vision
• master the art of compromise to bring together even the most disparate groups
• recognize your allies and view your enemies as potential partners
• use humor to make yourself heard, defuse potentially violent situations, and “laugh your way to victory”

Accessibility: this gathering may be outdoors on uneven ground, or indoors requiring 5-6 steps. There is a short walk on a dirt road from the parking area.
