Sasha Davis: What do we do when protests and elections fail?
Manage episode 502791086 series 2301309
How do we navigate the overwhelm that comes from staying informed about the world’s many interconnected crises — many of which may feel extremely dire and with grave urgency? Why do we need to look beyond conventional approaches to social change, such as electoral politics and even protests asking for things to be changed? And what does it mean to shift beyond acting from a place of reactivity and resistance — and to strategize for the longer term intention of supplanting oppressive governance?
In this pertinent conversation, Green Dreamer’s host, Kaméa Chayne, is joined by Sasha Davis, who takes us through some of the themes explored in his latest book, Replace the State: What to do when protests and elections fail.
Join us as we gently but critically hold up a mirror in front of ourselves to examine our methods and mentalities of change — ultimately landing on practical lessons from many Indigenous and people-led movements that have reclaimed power through effectively “replacing the state” in some shape or capacity.
