We are movement strategists, theorists, and practitioners who have been writing about organizing and progressive politics for more than two decades. (You can read more about Mark here and Paul here.) In the “Dispatches from the Whirlwind” newsletter, we offer thoughts about how social change works, lessons from social movement history, and methods for tracking the impact of mass protests and activist campaigns. We may also take the opportunity to occasionally send random thoughts on politics and culture, nerd out about movement theory, and highlight people we run across who are doing inspiring work in our world. We hope you will enjoy it, and we love hearing back from you! You can also contact us directly by e-mail: engler (at) democracyuprising.com
