How Does Change Happen?

We often think of ‘making a difference’ as an individual endeavour, a hero’s journey. Popular movements and protests have proliferated in the many crises of the last few years. Some expressions of change are deemed too weak, others too disruptive: from Instagram tiles to orange spray paint. This book spends time with three prominent movements across environmental justice, land reform, and a fight for rent controls, seeking to recalibrate activist thinking from the individual responsibility to the collective by asking, truly: how does change happen?
