Practicing New Worlds explores how principles of emergence, adaptation, iteration, resilience, transformation, interdependence, decentralization and fractalization can shape organizing toward a world without the violence of surveillance, police, prisons, jails, or cages of any kind, in which we collectively have everything we need to survive and thrive.ĭrawing on decades of experience as an abolitionist organizer, policy advocate, and litigator in movements for racial, gender, economic, and environmental justice and the principles articulated by adrienne maree brown in Emergent Strategy: Shaping Change, Changing Worlds, Ritchie invites us to think beyond traditional legislative and policy change to create more possibilities for survival and resistance in the midst of the ongoing catastrophes of racial capitalism-and the cataclysms to come. That way, we can understand these shifts and have a more substantial influence on them as they happen to us.Īdrienne Maree Brown uses the unique concept of blending Octavia Butler's novels with the inspiration to initiate social justice in her compelling self and social transformation novel.An exploration of how emergent strategies can help us meet this moment, survive what is to come, and shape safer and more just futures. While so many of us are resistant to the ever-changing nature of our lives, Emergent Strategy pushes us to embrace it, feel it, map it, assess it, and most importantly, learn from it.
We understand that change is constant means that it is our responsibility to shape the future of the lives we want to live. The concept of emergent strategy is unapologetic and seeks exploration in self-help, society-help, and planet-help. The result, a purposefully designed how-to in Emergent Strategy: Shaping Change, Changing Worlds.
Author Adrienne Maree Brown comes to us as the Emergent Strategy Series editor and co-editor of Octavia's Brood: Science Fiction from Social Justice Movements.
