Grassroots organizing and collective action have always been fundamental to American democracy but have been burgeoning since the 2016 election, as people struggle to make their voices heard in this moment of societal upheaval. Unfortunately much of that action has not had the kind of impact participants might want, especially among movements representing the poor and marginalized who often have the most at stake when it comes to rights and equality. Yet, some instances of collective action have succeeded. What’s the difference between a movement that wins victories for its constituents, and one that fails? What are the factors that make collective action powerful? Prisms of the People addresses those questions and more. Using data from six movement organizations—including a coalition that organized a 104-day protest in Phoenix in 2010 and another that helped restore voting rights to the formerly incarcerated in Virginia—Hahrie Han, Elizabeth McKenna, and Michelle Oyakawa show that the power of successful movements most often is rooted in their ability to act as “prisms of the people,” turning participation into political power just as prisms transform white light into rainbows. Understanding the organizational design choices that shape the people, their leaders, and their strategies can help us understand how grassroots groups achieve their goals. Linking strong scholarship to a deep understanding of the needs and outlook of activists, Prisms of the People is the perfect book for our moment—for understanding what’s happening and propelling it forward.

Businesses are about people. It is not the equipment that makes you money, it is the decision to buy it, the decision of when to turn it on or off, what to feed it, how hard to push it, and when to let it rest; these and other major decisions are all directly or indirectly made by people. Thus the keys to successful leadership today are communication, facilitation, collaboration and conflict resolution. This book provides a detailed guide in how to develop those skills as an individual and to embed them into the systems of your organization (or your part) such that you nurture those abilities throughout. The result is increased motivation, accountability, and results. The goal is to help you make a big difference in yourself and your organization immediately. This book is not about theory, although theory is discussed; it is about immediately defining and implementing the kinds of activities that will make the biggest difference.

You can control corporate polluters, rebuild your neighborhood, develop good jobs, restructure public welfare, improve schools, or change the treatment that you receive from local police, landlords, or public administrators. Roots to Power shows you how to organize with other people to resolve problems that arise from everyday situations--not just to win one special reform or institutional change at the present time, but to build a long-term, collective power base with a capacity to win battles in the future by tapping economic, electoral, and direct-action sources of power. A definitive reference and handbook that describes community groups and gives detailed examples of how to organize and maintain them.

Saul Alinsky, according to Time Magazine in 1970, was a "prophet of power to the people," someone who "has possibly antagonized more people . . . than any other living American." People Power introduces the major organizers who adopted and modified Alinsky's vision across the United States: --Fred Ross, Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta, and the Community Service Organization and National Farm Workers Association --Nicholas von Hoffman and the Woodlawn Organization --Tom Gaudette and the Northwest Community Organization --Ed Chambers, Richard Harmon, and the Industrial Areas Foundation --Shel Trapp, Gale Cincotta, and National People's Action --Heather Booth, Midwest Academy, and Citizen Action --Wade Rathke and ACORN Weaving classic texts with interviews and their own context-setting commentaries, the editors of People Power provide the first comprehensive history of Alinsky-based organizing in the tumultuous period from 1955 to 1980, when the key organizing groups in the United States took form. Many of these selections--previously available only on untranscribed audiotapes or in difficult-to-read mimeograph or Xerox formats--appear in print here for the first time.
