Shelby Handler, Michael Wolfe, and CP speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025. This session was sponsored by Jewish Voice for Peace.

What does it take to absorb and consolidate a membership base after periods of uprising & mass mobilization? Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) organizers will share their reflections on nitty gritty topics like: creating effective leadership structures, building stronger strategic alignment across a national base, developing concrete organizing skills and capacities with grassroots member-leaders, navigating anti-organizational left tendencies, and practicing principled struggle in response to disagreement.

The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, September 4-7, 2026. Learn more about the Socialism Conference at www.socialismconference.org.
