People, Power, Change: A Conversation with Author Marshall Ganz at the Alameda Labor Council

Join the Alameda Labor Council, Building Trades Council of Alameda, and the UC Berkeley Labor Center for a talk by Marshall Ganz, senior lecturer in leadership, organizing, and civil society at Harvard’s Kennedy School and one of the country’s leading voices on democratic organizing.

Ganz has distilled decades of insights into his new book, People, Power, Change: Organizing for Democratic Renewal. Written in the tradition of classics like Saul Alinsky’s 1972 Rules for Radicals, Ganz’s book is both a practical guide on how to reclaim democratic power and an inspiring call for collective organizing as an essential driver of democracy.

Moderator: Steven Pitts
Steven Pitts recently retired from the UC Berkeley Labor Center where for 19 years he focused on leadership development and Black worker issues. He co-founded the National Black Worker Center and currently is a trustee of the Alameda Labor Council.
