DESCRIPTION:A defining aspect of the actions in "The Battle for Seattle" was the 
 successful use of affinity groups and other consensus based forms of 
 organizing. Starhawk's experience in teaching and participating in this 
 form of direct democracy scans decades and continents. Please join us for 
 an in-depth exploration of how to move from individualism to collaboration, 
 and from hierarchy to affinity based groups where all of our talents and 
 skills can be put to their greatest use.\n\nStarhawk is a veteran of 
 progressive movements from anti-war, to anti-nukes, to Occupy; she is also 
 one of the most respected voices in modern earth-based spirituality. She is 
 the author of twelve books, including "The Spiral Dance" and the ecotopian 
 novel, "The Fifth Sacred Thing", about a future San Francisco based on 
 direct democracy, permaculture, and an ethic of non-violence. She has just 
 released "The Empowerment Manual: A Guide for Collaborative Groups", which 
 draws on her decades of experience to explain how groups can successfully 
 harness members' passions and skills by understanding group dynamics, 
 communication, and collective decision making.\n
