Re:Imagining Change (published by PM Press) is an inspiring and accessible resource guide to smartMeme’s innovative story-based strategy tools and methodology. The book grows out of smartMeme’s work since 2002 training over 3,000 activists and collaborating with over 100 social change organizations on a wide range of critical environmental and social justice issues. Re:Imagining Change outlines how to apply narrative power analysis to effectively frame issues, provides intriguing case studies, and issues a passionate call for more creative movement building to face the intersecting crises of the 21st century.


SmartMeme co-founder Patrick Reinsborough will briefly share some of the insights from the book, and will be joined in a panel discussion on strategy and innovation in the emerging movements for fundamental social change by visionary local organizers and smartMeme collaborators Gopal Dayaneni of the Movement Generation Justice & Ecology Project (http://www.movementgeneration.org) and Sharon Lungo of the Ruckus Society and Indigenous People’s Power Project (http://www.ruckus.org).
