This page serves as a resource page for a workshop presented at the National Creating Change Conference 2010 in Dallas, Texas.
Workshop Description -
This discussion-based workshop will address the conflicts and barriers created by the "down-er than thou" mentality that often leads to feelings of exclusion and grudges in social justice organizing. Speaking specifically to youth and student organizers, this session will discuss and then outline strategies to build communities of strong organizers instead of alienating one another with destructive judeents. In an effort to create sustainable activism, we will develop real methods for confronting the effects of judgmental conlict.
